Event 0301 and 0302
Please note that SAP does not recommend replacing the events 0301 and 0302 with a customer function module, since in this case, SAP could not provide customer support for the dunning proposal run.
Event 0350
Do not enter any installation-specific function modules for event 0350. Instead, define the dunning activities in customizing under Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable -> Business Transactions -> Dunning -> Configure Dunning Activities and assign the dunning activities to the dunning levels of the dunning procedures (in customizing under Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable -> Business Transactions -> Dunning -> Dunning by Dunning Procedure -> Configure Dunning Procedure).

Dunning
With the component Dunning
, you can create and send payment reminders or dunning letters to your business partners to remind them of overdue payables and to request payment.
You can print correspondence using the component Correspondence
or using the application forms of the Print Workbench
that you have defined .
In addition to the features of the standard delivery, you can realize industry-specific dunning activities.
Industry Component Utilities
(IS-U)
You can dun budget billing requests as well as open items. The dunning run can create lock documents automatically. For more information about lock documents, see the documentation of the industry componentUtilities
under 
Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable
Locking/Restarting a Utilities Installation
and under Customer Service
Locking/Restarting a Utilities Installation
. You can postprocess the dunning-relevant data manually in the dunning proposal.
Industry component Telecommunications (IS-T)
You can postprocess the dunning-relevant data manually in the dunning proposal. If receivables have reached a specific dunning level, you can lock the contract account or the service for a business partner automatically in the dunning activities run. (See IS-T Telecommunication Services in RM-CA
Locking Services via the Dunning Run (IS-T)
).
Industry component
Insurance (FS-CD)
The following dunning procedure types are supported:
-
Individual dunning notice
In an individual dunning notice, all items in a contract are considered independently of one another. This means that you can have several dunning procedures for one contract.
-
Total dunning notice
In a total dunning notice, all items in a contract are dunned with one dunning procedure.
-
Multiple total dunning notice
A multiple total dunning notice can, in contrast to the total dunning notice, contain several total dunning notices for one business partner/insurance object relationship in parallel.
-
Contract dunning notice
In a contract dunning notice, only one current dunning procedure exists at any one point in time. This refers to the oldest item.
-
Account dunning
All items due for dunning for a contract account are dunned on a cross-contract basis for account dunning.
The dunning procedures to be used are determined in the dunning proposal run and saved in the item.
