Unlike regular payment transactions, payment collections are initiated by a creditor via a bank (the creditor bank) by sending a payment collection message to the debtor's bank. Money is then collected from the debtor bank as instructed by the creditor bank.
In payment collection cases, the following fields may have different meanings compared against regular payment transactions:
● Paying bank account / paying house bank account / paying company code: The bank account / house bank account / company code from which a payment transaction is initiated. In a regular payment transaction, it is the bank account that pays out. However, in a payment collection, it is the bank account that collects money.
● Receiving bank account / receiving house bank account / receiving company code: The bank account / house bank account / company code to which a payment transaction is carried out. In a regular payment transaction, it is the bank account that receives money. However, in a payment collection, it is the bank account that pays out.
You can tell from the payment method whether it is a regular payment or a payment collection:
● When an outgoing payment method is used, this indicates that the transfer is a regular payment transaction.
● When an incoming payment method is used, this indicates that the transfer is a payment collection.
Effects on Customizing
To make payment collections, make sure that you have defined proper incoming payment methods for the bank accounts involved in the bank transfers.

3.3.2.1.4 Value Date Shift of Hypothetical Derivative due to Date Shifts by New Bank Holidays
You can shift the dates (such as the value date, fixing date, and expiry date) of a financial transaction that is already used as a hedging instrument in a hedging relationship to a later or previous working day. The change made to the date in the financial transaction causes a change in the dates of the affected hedging relationships. The value date of the hypothetical derivative (HD) is adjusted if the end of term of the HD (value date for forwards and non-deliverable forwards, exercise date for options) is before the new dedesignation date. In this case, the hypothetical derivative would no longer be processed at dedesignation, which would lead to significant ineffectiveness. Therefore, in this case, the term end date of the HD is shifted to the new dedesignation date (the fixing date or value date of the underlying may also be shifted in parallel). If this is not the case, the value date remains unchanged, that is, it remains as it was determined based on the exposure representation.

You can assign product items from different freight units to the same package, for example, by packing them on a single pallet. In consignment orders this can be done manually on the UI or by inbound messages. For freight orders this can be done manually on the UI or by combined inbound messages (transport-based freight order). If possible, the system performs a freight unit merge for these packages that contain items across several freight units. Merging means, that all items of a freight unit are moved to another freight unit. The empty freight unit is then cancelled. In all other cases only single items are moved to another freight unit.

Automatic Correction of Reference Errors – Automatic RetryAn automatic retry is now available to correct reference errors in business documents.
If you correct and resolve errors, for example, on the Document Errors tab page of a consignment order or in the product item itself, the system retries to resolve reference errors in the related freight order. It checks if reference errors to an unknown consignment order can be resolved. If the consignment order is now available in the system, the missing reference is automatically added in the freight order.
For more information, see Correction of Errors in Business Documents.
New Checks to Find Errors in Business DocumentsNew checks are available to find errors in business documents. The system runs various checks when freight orders or consignment orders are created or changed, for example:
● Check for overdelivery of quantityIn the inbound process the system checks for an overdelivery of quantity when the system creates or updates a consignment order or freight order on the basis of an inbound message or when you manually change quantities in a consignment order or freight order.For purchasing documents (such as purchasing orders or scheduling agreements) you can define a quantity tolerance for a product item, a percentage by which the quantity can be exceeded. You can also specify that there is no limit on overdelivery quantities (Unlimited).You maintain these settings in the purchase order or scheduling agreement on the Delivery tab page.
78 PUBLICWhat's New in SAP S/4HANA 2020 FPS02

If the overdelivery tolerance is exceeded when you update the quantity of the item in the item hierarchy in the document, the system displays an error message. You can correct the product quantity in the item hierarchy. In the Advanced Shipping and Receiving inbound process, the predecessor document is also updated if you have enabled the setting for Enable Synchronization of Predecessor Documents in the Customizing.
● Vendor CheckWhen an inbound message (ASN) arrives to update a consignment order, the system checks the sent vendor.
● Check for Package-Related Errors in Nested PackagesWhen an inbound message (ASN) arrives and a consignment order is created or updated, the system checks for package-related errors.For more information, see Example Checks to Find Errors in Business Documents.

You can start the automatic consignment building from the user interface of the freight order document. There, you can choose whether the system first creates the consignment orders only locally in the freight order without reference to consignment order documents or if it directly creates consignment order documents. If the consignment orders are created only locally in the freight order, you can still make changes in the freight order that are applied later in the consignment order documents. Once the consignment documents have been created, they are no longer updated by changes to the freight order.
Consignment Building ProfileIn this profile you can predefine criteria for the automatic consignment building for freight units of a freight order. You can, for example, predefine whether the consignment orders are built only locally in the freight order or directly as consignment order documents. Furthermore, you can choose from predefined grouping rules or from rules that you have defined in Customizing (see below). The system combines the freight units into consignment orders according to these grouping rules and the general default rules for building consignment orders, for example, same source and target location.
Moreover, you can, for example, specify incompatibility settings and the consignment order type in the profile.
Effects on Existing Data
You can now choose the options to build consignment orders locally or create consignment order documents from the Follow-Up menu of the freight order user interface.
To create or edit a consignment building profile, you open one of the new Create Consignment Building Profile or Edit Consignment Building Profile apps from the launchpad. The consignment building profiles are also integrated in the Profiles and Settings - Worklist app on the launchpad.

Overdelivery Tolerance
In the road freight order and the consignment order documents, the system displays an error message on the Document Errors tab page if the overdelivery tolerance is exceeded when creating or updating the business document on the basis of an inbound message. The overdelivery tolerance percentage is defined in the purchasing document. There are several ways in which you can correct these errors, for example, you can update the quantity of the item to an amount within the overdelivery tolerance limit in the business document on the Document Errors tab page.
If the overdelivery tolerance is exceeded when you update the quantity of the item in the item hierarchy in the document, the system displays an error message. You can correct the product quantity in the item hierarchy.

The system considers these transit durations for a new departure rule or a new voyage in the corresponding schedule. Changing the transit durations doesn't have an impact on existing departure rules and voyages.
Further, you can change the transit duration from the last port of discharge to the destination gateway after you created a voyage. The arrival time is derived from the transit duration. If you then copy time changes from the underlying carrier schedule's voyage into the gateway schedule voyage, the manually changed transit duration is preserved and used to re-calculate the arrival time.

If a mobile scenario is implemented, during route execution, delivery drivers can record new and changed price amounts for goods delivered on customer visits. Amounts can be recorded at document header level and at item level. Therefore, pricing conditions can be mapped at header and item level and also by sales area. Pricing conditions can also be mapped by route type. The route type determines the route processing scenario, for example, the delivery driver scenario.
When additional or changed prices are uploaded from a mobile device to the back-end system by using the Route Data - Download and Upload (LMD_ROUTE_2020), the pricing conditions can be mapped to condition types based on settings defined in Customizing. Condition types represent price elements, for example, prices, surcharges, discounts, taxes or freight. Condition types are also defined in Customizing and are stored in

condition records. Pricing procedures define which condition types are taken into account during the pricing calculation and in which sequence.
Condition types also let you differentiate between different output types in output determination, for example, order confirmation or delivery note, and between different strategy types in batch determination.
Effects on Data Transfer
At upload, the pricing conditions recorded on a mobile device in mobile billing documents (invoice or credit memo) are transferred to sales documents even if the values recorded are zero. Zero amounts are uploaded, for example, so that the value of a discount is set to zero during the pricing calculation.
NoteIn an upload request that contains additional or changed prices, the corresponding documents and document items must have the property value "DocumentCategory" : "MIV".

If a mobile scenario is implemented, during route execution, delivery drivers can create additional documents on mobile devices to record returns and unplanned deliveries, or to create new documents, for example, delivery-based billing documents. These mobile transactions are then uploaded to the back-end system by using the Route Data - Download and Upload (LMD_ROUTE_2020) service. Mobile transactions are dependent on sales areas and need to be mapped to a sales order type and, optionally, to a delivery type in the back-end system.
Unique mobile document numbers created on a mobile device can optionally be used as an external reference number to quickly find and access relevant documents upon customer requests. Employees in the back office can thus find business documents more quickly and therefore process customer inquiries related to, for example, sales orders or billing documents, in a more time-efficient manner.
Effects on Data Transfer
The configuration settings for mobile transactions and mobile document numbers are downloaded to mobile devices with the OData service Mobile Execution Configuration - Read. For more information about the OData service, see OData API: Mobile Execution Configuration - Read [page 146].

If a mobile scenario is implemented, during route execution, delivery drivers can use their mobile devices to create attachments, such as signatures, generated billing documents, or pictures of damaged goods. The delivery drivers then select the appropriate attachment type directly on their mobile devices. A delivery driver can, for example, select the attachment type Delivery to add a customer signature to a delivery document.
After route execution, when the attachments are uploaded to the back-end system by using the Route Data - Download and Upload (LMD_ROUTE_2020) service, the selected mobile attachment type is used to assign the attachments to the correct route business object. An attachment with, for example, attachment type Delivery is then assigned to the related delivery document.

14.3.1.1.1 Optimized Web Service Call for Creating an External Renewal Quote
The call of the Web service for creating a renewal quote in SAP Product, Quotation and Underwriting Management has been optimized. Firstly, the Web service is now called only once for each policy, even if the policy contains several contracts (previously, the Web service was called for each contract within the policy). In addition, the handling of errors that can occur when the Web service is called has been refined.

Additional Details
As of Policy Management in SAP S/4HANA 2020 FPS01, the time model function CTRREN is available to trigger the creation of a renewal quote in SAP Product, Quotation and Underwriting Management via a Web service. This time model function is executed in the renewal run (update type RNW).
The new features when calling the Web service are described in more detail below.
Web Service Is Called Only Once for Each PolicyIf a policy has several contracts, the time model function CTRREN was previously executed for each contract and, as a result, SAP Product, Quotation and Underwriting Management was called multiple times.
However, since a renewal quote is created in SAP Product, Quotation and Underwriting Management at policy level, the renewal quote needs to be created only once for each policy. As a result, the Web service has to be called only once for each policy.
156 PUBLICWhat's New in SAP S/4HANA 2020 FPS02
Industries
NoteThe created quote can still include renewals for all contracts of the original policy. For this reason, policy processing is required to execute the time model function CTRREN in the renewal run (update type RNW).
Optimized Error HandlingThe handling of errors that can occur when the Web service is called has been refined. A differentiation is now made between connection errors and functional errors during the creation of the quote.
● Connection errors:If there are connection errors, the update run ends with an error and the time model function CTRREN or the associated date remain scheduled, but are not yet executed.
● Functional errors:The update run is not ended if there are errors that occur during the creation of the renewal quote in SAP Product, Quotation and Underwriting Management and that are returned by the Web service. These error messages are logged during the run and can be monitored and analyzed by an administrator. The time model function CTRREN or the associated date are executed after the successful end of the run and are no longer scheduled.
This differentiation prevents deadlock situations in which the time model function CTRREN blocks further updates because it is still scheduled for execution even though the renewal quote was created successfully in SAP Product, Quotation and Underwriting Management.
14.3.1.1.2 Further Processing of Renewal Quotes Without Customer Response
You can now call the external quotation system SAP Product, Quotation and Underwriting Management from Policy Management to trigger the further processing of renewal quotes to which the customer has not responded after a specific acceptance period. This means that you can close those quotes that are no longer required in the external quotation system.
The new transaction /PM0/ABP_RNW_ACT_NOR (program /PM0/ABP_RNWLOFFER_ACT_NORSPNS) is available for this purpose. You should schedule this transaction as a regular background job. The background job calls the external quotation system, determines which quotes are overdue, and executes the default action for the respective quote. The external quotation system returns the current processing status of the quotes to Policy Management at time intervals defined by the user.

Starting the Transaction
To call the new transaction /PM0/ABP_RNW_ACT_NOR, choose Insurance Policy Management In-Force Business Management Periodic Processing Standard Response If No Customer Response to Renewal Quote in the area menu.
As soon as you execute the transaction, Policy Management calls the interface to the external quotation system via the Business Add-In (BAdI) /PM0/ABT_QU_RNWACT_REMOTE_BADI.
Calling the External Quotation System via a Web Service and Starting the Background Job in the External Quotation SystemFirst, a Web service of the external quotation system is called via the BAdI method TRIGGER_RNWL_DEFAULT_ACTION. This Web service starts a background job in the external quotation system that determines the renewal quotes to which the customer has not responded after a specific acceptance period. The system executes the default action for these renewal quotes that is defined according to the rules in the external quotation system for the quote.
Regular Calling of the External Quotation System via an OData Service and Returning the Processing Status to Policy ManagementAn OData service of the external quotation system is called regularly via the BAdI method GET_RNWL_RUN_STATUS. This OData service calls the external quotation system at the time intervals that you have specified on the program’s initial screen in the Time Interval Between Calls field and returns detailed information about the current processing status of the quotes to Policy Management. This information is saved in a log in Policy Management.
Content and Use of the Application LogA system administrator can display the application log and thus track the current processing status. The system administrator can analyze any errors that occur.
In detail, the application log contains the following information:
● General information about the background run, such as:○ Process ID○ Number of renewal quotes included in the run○ Processing status
● Detailed information about each renewal quote, such as:○ ID of the submission or quote○ Action that was executed for the quote○ Previous policy number○ New policy number (if created)

fixed.○ The Workspace Product Language Selection Control did not update when product languages were
changed via user preferences. This has been fixed.○ The GetLanguage() function determined a different language than the one set in the test case in case
of redundant language objects. This has now been fixed.○ When copying and pasting numbers from Excel into PMQ.Designer, it occurred that only the displayed
(OR formatted) value was pasted instead of the actual (OR saved) value from Exceld. This has been fixed.
○ The Copy as new generation and Copy as new adaptation level actions copied the properties of the compact component (product module) to the root product module of the new adaptation level. This behavior has been fixed.
○ If configurable product module symbols were used, it could happen that these were not displayed and that some functions were missing. The problem only occurred in connection with read-only object libraries. In the case of libraries, their version was saved in the icon path. Increasing the library version therefore resulted in incorrect paths. The library version is now no longer part of the icon paths. For this reason, existing paths must be manually adapted to the new format.
○ When executing the M10 functions round/roundDown/roundup for decimal values, a warning was issued if the second parameter (number of decimal places) was not also of data type Decimal. This has been fixed.
○ Compilation errors were generated for package, formula and function names starting with a number. This has been fixed.
○ For validation messages, double-clicking opens the appropriate editor and selects the corresponding element. This behavior did not work for validation messages which were created using a customer-specific builder. This has been fixed.
