Deleting Limits (SAP Library - SAP Financial Supply Chain Management (FIN-FSCM))

Deleting Limits

Use

Deletion of a limit, (depending on the setting in the Implementation Guide (IMG)), might need to be released in accordance with the principle of dual control by a second user with authorization for the account before the limit is actually deleted.

You can delete limits directly on the account or using a list that displays all limits flagged for deletion. In the list of limits to be deleted, the processing status is displayed by a traffic-light symbol.

Green = deletion is possible
Yellow = an indication that you were already in the detail display "Account"
Red = limits not deleted in mass processing due to an error
No traffic-light = limit has been deleted.

Caution

Overdraft limits that are valid before the last account balancing cannot be deleted. (They are still needed for postings in periods already settled.) Before the deletion process, create a new limit that is valid from the account balancing and then delete the old limit. The system automatically deletes any overlaps in the validity periods between the old and the new limit.
