  13. When you send a dunning item to a collection agency for processing, the R/3 System assigns it a dunning block indicator in the form of an asterisk (*). If the indicator does not exist already, you must create it. If you are already using the asterisk for another purpose, you must redefine the dunning block indicator and enter the new symbol in the RFIDSEDUNNBLOCK include.
  14. This include also specifies which logical path the R/3 System saves the dunning data under. In the standard system, this is HOME, but you can change this if necessary.
