Purpose

For dunning outstanding receivables at the level of the contract or the main contractual partner (customer).

The dunning procedure for the contract is based on the dunning program of the Financial Accounting (FI) component.

However, you can make Real-Estate-specific settings in Customizing for Financial Accounting or Flexible Real Estate Management to control the dunning process.

In particular, you can make settings for Dunning Groupings by Contract and Special Treatment for Incoming Payment Methods so that:

...

       1.      Even documents or master records that use the incoming payment method are dunned.

       2.      Dunning blocks on contracts have to be observed.

       3.      You can dun the main contractual partner in the contract (master tenant with customer account) or other business partners (for instance guarantors).

NoteFor further information, refer to the documentation of the Financial Accounting (FI) component on Structure linkDunning.
