• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UKM_CHECK027 - Document data &1 is not in credit horizon &2 ?

  The SAP error message UKM_CHECK027 indicates that a document (such as a sales order or a purchase order) is not within the defined credit horizon for a customer. This typically occurs in the context of credit management within SAP, where the system checks whether a customer's credit limit is sufficient for the transaction being processed.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  The document data (e.g., sales order) is dated outside the credit horizon defined for the customer.
  The credit horizon is set in the customer master data, which specifies the time frame for which credit checks are performed.
  The document's date (e.g., delivery date, invoice date) is beyond the allowed credit horizon.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Customer Master Data:
  
  Go to the customer master record (transaction code XD03 for general data or FD03 for company code data).
  Verify the credit horizon settings in the credit management section. Ensure that the credit horizon is set appropriately for the customer's needs.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Document Date:
  
  If possible, adjust the date of the document (e.g., change the delivery date or invoice date) to fall within the defined credit horizon.
  
  
  
  Modify Credit Horizon:
  
  If the current credit horizon is too restrictive, consider extending it. This can be done in the customer master data or through configuration settings in the credit management module.
  
  
  
  Review Credit Management Settings:
  
  Check the configuration settings for credit management in the SAP system (transaction code SPRO).
  Navigate to the relevant sections under Financial Accounting (FI) or Sales and Distribution (SD) to ensure that the credit management settings align with business requirements.
  
  
  
  Consult with Finance Team:
  
  If you are unsure about changing credit settings, consult with your finance or credit management team to ensure compliance with company policies.
