Prenote Editing

This function enables you to edit prenotes either by using the Business Application Programming Interface (BAPI) BAPI_BKK_PRENOTE_CHANGE or by using the dialog mode.

For more information about the BAPI, see the BAPI documentation in the Function Builder.

For more information about prenotes, see Prenote.

Note Note

You can change prenotes in the dialog mode regardless of whether these were created there or by BAPI. However, you can change only the valid-to date and the long and short text of a prenote. To change the amount of a prenote, delete the prenote and create a new one with the required amount.

End of the note.

Integration

You can also edit prenotes on the Orders tab page of the relevant account.

Prerequisites

You have created the prenote either by BAPI or in the dialog, and the prenote status is Active, In Release, or Change - In Release.

Note
You must ensure that the valid-to date is not before the current posting date, otherwise the prenote expires and cannot be edited.

End of the note.

Features

Checks

After you have saved your entries, the prenote undergoes a series of formal checks. If the checks do not find any errors, the prenote status either changes to Active or the prenote goes into the release procedure depending on the settings in Customizing for Bank Customer Accounts (IS-B-BCA), under Start of the navigation path Account Management Next navigation step Maintain Prenotes Release Assign Release Object to Release Procedure End of the navigation path .

If you edit an active prenote while it is still being released, the old version of the prenote remains active so that it can still be assigned to a payment item. Another prenote is created in parallel with the status Change - In Release. Once the release process has been completed, the system overwrites the old version of the prenote with the new data and assigns the Active status. Finally, the system physically deletes the prenote with the Change - In Release status from the database.

For more information about the checks, see Formal and Material Checks.

Change Document

If the checks are successful, the system writes a change document for the relevant fields. You can display this by choosing Change Documents.

Activities

You can edit prenotes on the account screen, or in the prenote transaction (on the SAP Easy Access screen, choose Start of the navigation path Accounting Next navigation step Bank Applications Bank Customer Accounts Account Management Prenote Change End of the navigation path ), or by means of the BAPI mentioned above.
