Use

This Business Add-In (BAdI) is used in the component SAP Credit Management (FIN-FSCM-CR).

The information from external credit information providers is transferred using a B2B XI interface of SAP Credit Management. You can update the information transferred in the master record of the business partner. In order for the ratings from the external credit information to be stored in the correct Credit Management attributes of your business partner you have to assign the incoming messages accordingly. The same applies to additional information that you receive from external providers.

This BAdI enables the system to parse the document transferred and derive additional ratings from the result, which can then be updated in the Credit Management master record of the business partner as additional external ratings. You can also store the complete document in the business partner master record.

Methods of this BAdI:

  • FILL_QUERY (mandatory)

    You use this method to specify the general fields maintained on the interface in accordance with the types of information sent by the provider. The information for these fields is then requested from the provider.

  • READ_RESPONSE (optional)

    You use this method to define additional fields, for example, for a second rating.

Requirements

You have connected an external credit information provider via the XI interface.

Standard settings

The standard setting contains example coding that you can modify to meet your requirements.
