In SAP Claims Management a differentiation is made between the database status and the display status of the claim bundle.
There are different database statuses for the claim bundle:
Released
(field RELEASED
)
Canceled
(field CANCEL
)
In Process
(field INPROCESS
)
The above-mentioned status fields are contained in the database table ICLCCEVENT
. If you are processing a claim bundle and execute a function code for a claim bundle, the field in the ICLCCEVENT
table is changed accordingly.
The display status is the status of the claim bundle that the system displays at runtime in claim bundle processing. The system displays the claim bundle status on the Overview
tab page, in the Status
field.
The possible display statuses are defined in Customizing activity Enhance Status
(path: ).
You can use a BRFplus expression to configure when a status should be displayed and which status this should be. You can also use this BRFplus expression to create new statuses (in addition to those defined in Customizing activity Enhance Status
).
Proceed as follows:
Create the required expression in BRFplus.
Define the BRFplus expression in Customizing activity Define Claim Bundle Types
in the Bundle Status VR
field (path: .
SAP delivers the BRFplus expression ICLE_MC_STATUS_FX
to allow determination of the status of a claim bundle in the category of Multiple Contract Handling.
The BRFplus expression ICLE_MC_STATUS_FX
functions as follows:
If all claims that are assigned to the claim bundle have the status Closed
, then the system also sets the claim bundle status to Closed
.
Note
A claim is then considered as being closed if it has one of the following statuses:
Closed
No Claim Made
Closed Except For ...
If one of the claims that is assigned to the claim bundle has the status Open
or Reopened
, then the system also sets the claim bundle status to Open
.
In Customizing activity Define Claim Bundle Types
, ensure that the BRFplus expression ICLE_MC_STATUS_FX
is assigned to the relevant claim bundle type in the category Multiple Contract Handling
.
You can also use your own BRFplus expression. In this case, see the documentation under “Display Status”.
