In this document we will analyze different functionality of Liquidty Planner
1. Create Query
2. Delete & Recreate Data
3. Liquidity Analysis
4. Structured Reports
5. List GL Accounts
6. Transfer Information from one client to another
7. Forecast
1. Create Query
Onte of the functionalities of Liquidity Planner is the possibility of creating queries, this means redirect the natural flow of the document chain to a Liquidity Position because of external conditions. Once a query condition is met, FSCM-LP stops searching for the next level and replaces the Liquidity Position with the one in the query
a) Create a query
b) Assign the query to a Query Sequence
a) Create a Query
If you create a query you define the Liquidity Position and the query conditions which will re-assing the new Liquidity Position
There are to types of queries from the origin conception. Origin C is for payment documents (Vendor/Customers) in the document chain, and D are for G/L Accounts (Incomes & expenses Accounts). Depending on what query do you want to create you will have the following trx
Transactions
Origin C
- FLQQC1 Create a Query
- FLQQC3 Display Query
- FLQQC5 Assign a query to a query sequence
- FLQQC7 Test a query
Origin D
- FLQQD1 Create a Query
- FLQQD3 Display Query
- FLQQD5 Assign a query to a query sequence
- FLQQD7 Test a query
Each query needs:
- Name
- Description
- Liquidity Position
- Conditions
if we click on Conditions, we will see
There are different areas from where you can obtain information, Accounting Document & Vendor/Customer Master Data.
b) Assign the query to a Query Sequence
In trx FLQAD/FLQAF you don’t have query names, instead you have query sequences which is a group of querys. Query sequence (as well as queries) can be defined for a company group or all companies; only condition is if a query is defined for a company code then query sequence should also be for the company code. The query sequence is done in customizing
Transactions
FLQCB Create Query Sequence for FI Mechanism (Origin C)
FLQC11 Create Query Sequence for Invoices (Origin D)
Once the query sequence is created, you can assign queries and use them in FLQAD/FLQAF
2. Create and Delete Data
Sometimes there is the need to delete all data and start from scratch. Thes 2 trx will help you do that
FLQC9 Delete all Liquidity Information
FLQC10 Reconstruct Liquidity Information
3. Liquidity Analisys
In ECC 6.0 EhP7, in FLQAD you have the radio button “Analysis” that will show how the systems reconstructs the document chain
In ECC EhP6 and earlier versions you will run program RFLQ_REXCHAIN which will reconstruct document chain the same way as FLQAD
4. Structure Reports
Liquidity Reports (FLQLS, FLQREP) does not offer a structured report; this means all expenses / incomes are not grouped by their origin, they are only listed alphabetically according to Liquidity Positions. You would like to group them according to their origin.
Apply sap note 998071
5. List GL Accounts
When analyzing LP reports you would like a tool to determine the G/L Account and its Liquidity Position for faster analysis.
FLQLACC
6. Transfer information from one client to another
Not all information is transfered by customizing, ie: FLQINFACC . You would like to transfer it from one system to another
FLQUPINFAC Download/Upload FLQINFAC information
FLQUPQR Download/Upload Queries
FLQUPGRP Download/Upload Query Sequences (defined in FLQQD5 or FLQQC5)
7. Forecast
If you have concluded your liquidity analysis fro actuals and would like to determine forecast information, here are the programs:
RFLQ_CASH_FORECAST_FIN Liquidity Calculation: Forecast from Accounting (Open Items)
RFLQ_CASH_FORECAST_MMPO Liquidity Calculation: Forecast from MM PO and Scheduling Agreemen
RFLQ_CASH_FORECAST_MMPR Liquidity Calculation: Forecast from MM Purchase Request
RFLQ_CASH_FORECAST_SDSO Liquidity Calculation: Forecast from Sales Orders
RFLQ_CASH_FORECAST_TRD1 Liquidity Calculation: Forecast from Loans (FS-CML)
RFLQ_CASH_FORECAST_TRT1 Liquidity Calculation: Forecast from TR Transactions (FSCM-TRM)
RFLQ_DELETE_FC Liquidity Calculation: Delete Forecast Data (forecast – cleared documents)
RFLQ_REPORT_FC Liquidity Calculation: Forecast per Liquidity Item Report
In EhP7 you have trx FLQF1, FLQF2 & FLQF3 which cover some of the functions mentioned before.
If you want a comparison between actuals and forecast, you will need SAP BI/BO
