Smart SAP Assistant

  • Key Concepts: 
    Dunning block reason is a feature in SAP Financial Accounting (FI) that allows users to block dunning notices from being sent to customers. This feature is used to prevent customers from receiving multiple dunning notices for the same invoice. It is also used to prevent customers from receiving dunning notices for invoices that have already been paid.
    
    How to use it: 
    To use the dunning block reason feature, users must first create a dunning block reason code in the system. This code can then be assigned to an invoice when it is created. When the invoice is due, the system will check for the dunning block reason code and will not send a dunning notice if it finds one.
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    It is important to remember that the dunning block reason code must be assigned to an invoice before it is due in order for it to be effective. Additionally, users should be aware that the dunning block reason code will only prevent dunning notices from being sent; it will not prevent invoices from becoming overdue or stop interest from accruing on overdue invoices.
