Maintaining the Relationships in a Collateral
Constellation 
In the financial service quotation (FS quotation) you can maintain the collateral charge and collateral scope that are mapped by item relationships.
● You have created the products and relationships needed for a collateral constellation.
For more information, see Mapping a Collateral Constellation.
● In Customizing, you have defined the assignment of assets and collateral agreements to item categories.
For more information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Financial Services under Account Origination ® Financial Service Product (FS Product) ® Assignment of Assets and Security Agreements in Transaction.
● In Customizing, you have defined how the system represents the relationships in the quotation (filter method) and for which relationships you want to enter attributes.
For more information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Financial Services ® Basic Functions ® Cross-Item Functions ® Item Relationships ® Layouts ® Define and Propose Layouts.
● For each filter value of the layout, you can use a business add-in (BAdI) to influence how the item relationships are displayed and processed.
For more information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Financial Services ® Basic Functions ® Cross-Item Functions ® Item Relationships ® Layouts ® BAdI: Influence Processing.
You maintain relationships for collateral constellations at the header level of the FS quotation on the Item Relationships tab page.
Settings for collateral charge
For the relationship between the object and the collateral agreement, you can make the following settings:
● Ranking Order
You can assign several collateral agreements to an asset. The ranking order describes the sequence in which the collateral agreements are utilized in the case of fictitious recovery.
● Sequence
You can assign several assets to a collateral agreement. The sequence describes the order in which the assets are recovered in the case of fictitious recovery.
● Share
You can define the percentage at which the collateral agreement encumbers the object.
● Register Date
Date of entry in the register
● Register Number
Number of entry in the register
Settings for the collateral scope
For the relationship between the collateral agreement and asset, you can make the following settings:
● Ranking Class
You can define the sequence by assigning several collateral agreements to an asset such as a loan.
● Priority
You can define the sequence in which you want to use the assets in the case of fictitious recovery. The priority also determines the proportion at which you want to use the assets.
The priority is only relevant if you assign several assets to a collateral agreement.
● Share
You can define the percentage at which a collateral agreement safeguards an asset. If an asset is not completely covered by a collateral agreement, you need at least one additional collateral agreement.

Note that SAP Customer Relationship Management (SAP CRM) can only transfer a collateral constellation to the connected Collateral Management system if you have defined the settings for the item relationships correctly in the FS quotation.
