Symptom
There are inconsistent credit values in the system, you determined this by using the right method. You would like to know how to correct these wrong entries.
Solution
RVKRED77 is a correction report of the credit management for the updated open sales values (the open credit values in SD), that is, for the information structures S066 and S067 with the open order values (S066-OEIKW), the open delivery values (S067-OLIKW) and the open billing document values (S067-OFAKW).
errors occurred in the updating of these sales values (ideally if the cause of the errors has been eliminated so that you can continue afterwards with correct values without errors);
if the update group (T014-STAFO, Transaction OB45) was changed in a credit control area (more on this you can read HERE);
in larger intervals to remove zero entries from table S066: The open order values (S066-OEIKW) are stored in time periods (monthly, weekly or daily, Transaction OMO1) in table S066. At some stage, the entries in the older periods become zero and are then also read each time you read the open order values (for example during the check of the credit limit used). To improve the performance, delete these entries in larger intervals by using RVKRED77;
in larger intervals to remove minimum elementary amounts (for example 1 cent) which, due to rounding problems, remained despite the completion of the respective processes. For more details refer to Note 406608.
To ensure an error-free run of RVKRED77, it is necessary to completely block tables VBAK, LIKP and VBRK. As a result, the run of the report is not possible during the current operation.
Depending on the selection, a program run of RVKRED77 can last a few hours, in extreme cases you may even experience a runtime of a few days.
Note 363343 provides detailed instructions for the parallel processing of RVKRED77 and Note 755395 for background execution:.
SAP Note: 363343 - Parallel processing of RVKRED77 if the runtime is too long
SAP Note: 755395 - Parallel processing RVKRED77 for background processing
If you identified more credit accounts with incorrect credit values (i.e. with report Z_CREDIT_VALUE_COMPARE, read HERE how) you can build groups of credit accounts which you can run by parallel processing. With that you can reduce the time frame needed for reconstruction.
RVKRED88 simulates report RVKRED77. However, it does not block tables VBAK, LIKP or VBRK as does RVKRED77 as a result, differences may occur in the result if relevant documents are changed during the run or if new documents are created. It is very well suited to estimate the runtime of RVKRED77, and thus to determine suitable selections.
This is included in SAP Note: 400311 - RVKRED77: Reorganization credit data, new documentation

How does the credit update work?
RVKRED77 is locking the tables, no SD activity is possible
Business runs 24*7, it is not possible to block the tables, how can we correct the values

SAP Credit management: Functional overview
101633,306
In this blog we will make a brief summary of the most important points about SAP Credit Management
First, the difference between “FI-AR Credit Management” and SAP Credit Management is detailed
SAP Credit Management takes information in real time from the SD and FI modules. Allowing a credit analysis on the flight and gives us the certainty of an accurate analysis of the clients
What allows to create SAP Credit Management ?
Credit Limit Management
– Implement a company wide credit policy
– Manage a customer credit profile
– Central credit management in a distributed system landscape
Credit Case
– Credit case for structured processing of credit limit applications
– Track status and result of credit limit applications
Credit Rules Engine
– Categorize customers by scoring rules
– Automatically calculate and assign a customer-specific credit limit
– Credit check rules
– Model and implement own customer credit score cards
Credit Information
– Interface to external credit agencies
– Input parameters for scoring rules
Credit Manager Analytics
– Role-based access to credit management information and analysis
What allows Credit Rules Engine?
Create a scoring formula and credit limit formula by using the formula editor. Parameters (for example, business partner data) and functions are used as input parameters.
One scoring formula and several credit limit formulas (for each credit segment) are assigned to the rule for scoring and credit limit calculation, which is assigned to each customer in the credit profile. The risk class is determined directly from the score.
In customizing, specific score ranges which do not overlap are assigned to each risk class. For the check rule, the system determines the steps which are taken to check the creditworthiness of a customer when a sales order is created. This may include the static check of the credit limit or acheck of the highest dunning level.
Customer-specific process chains in SAP Credit Management can be defined through events which trigger follow-up actions
Calculate internal credit scoring
In the scoring you can combine customer master data and transactional data (e.g. payment behavior) to score a customer.The scoring is based on formula that can be freely defined by the user.
In the scoring method you can include ratings from external sources. Multiple external ratings can be mapped to an internal rating to make them compareable
Use a black-rated customer list to prevent business with high risk customers
– A sales order that is entered in the sales system can be checked automatically in the credit management system.
– If the check fails, the order is blocked and the credit manager can review the customer credit profile.
– He can request credit report from an external source. (e.g. D&B)
– Based on new external information the scoring and a new proposal for credit-limit can be automatically calculated by the system
Based on the new credit limit the credit manager can release the sales order now
Credit Management with Central Payments
You can also use SAP Credit Management with Central Payments in Central Finance
For this scenario it is necessary to implement SLT and through IDoc / ALE, etc. You can send the SD module information from the source system to the target system.

Hello Pablo,
Nice overview. Could you please share more detail on "it is necessary to implement SLT and through IDoc / ALE, etc." Do you mean the document replication or credit check service message flow from source to target.
Also, the scenario should work if the document status in both source and target system reflecting the right status.
Thank you

Hi Jyoti,
Thank you!. It is not necessary to implement SLT for the Credit Management module, the communication is by IDOC.
The credit check begins when the sales order is generated in the source system.
Yes, it is correct the system works correctly when the data have the same status in both systems.

Hello Pablo,
Thank you for a good overview of the functionality, is there any detailed documentation we can refer for settings we need to change on existing ECC systems for deactivating existing credit check functionality and in case we have multiple ECC systems, We are linking them all to CFIN but only want to do use centralized credit check only on some of them and have the credit check activated selectively on few ECC instances. any insight on this scenario will be very helpful.
Regards,
Mehul.

Dear Pablo or Mehul,
Did you find this documentation that can clarify how to activate the credit check only for some of the source system or even just some of the legal entities? We are encountering this scenario where we do not want to do a centralized credit check for all legal entities.
Appreciate any support!
Regards,
Moises Ibarra

Hello Pablo,
Great article and very informative.
Want to ask if you have implemented Credit Management in distributed landscape? Have a client who is implementing cFin and has few source systems.
What are some of the configuational tasks? How do you make source systems talk to credit mgmt enabled system? Some key considerations and etc.
Thanks
