Carla assigns the new dunning procedure to the business partners who are to be dunned every 7 days.

After that, Carla creates a dunning run with by doing the following steps:

The figure shows the process of creating a dunning run in four steps. These steps are described below.
  1. Specify Dunning Parameters
    • Begin by defining the dunning parameters.
  2. Schedule Dunning Run
    • The dunning program identifies accounts/items requiring dunning, determines the dunning level, and gather other necessary details.
    • Account Selection
    • To be included, accounts must meet the following criteria:
    • A dunning procedure is maintained in the master record.
    • The last dunning run date is sufficiently in the past to adhere to the dunning intervals specified in the assigned dunning procedure.
    • The business partner is not blocked for dunning.
    • Open Item Checks
    • For identified accounts, the dunning run checks open items up to the date specified in the Documents posted up To parameter field. The system verifies if each open item:
    • Is not blocked for dunning.
    • Is overdue based on the dunning date, payment terms, and grace days defined in the dunning procedure.
    • If the item passes these checks, the system calculates the overdue days, determines the dunning level, and checks if a dunning notice is required.
    • Dunning Proposal Generation
    • All dunning data is replicated into the dunning proposal.
  3. Edit Dunning Proposal
    • You can edit, delete, and recreate the dunning proposal as often as needed.
  4. Create Dunning Notices
    • The dunning program generates the dunning notices and updates the dunning data in the business partner master records and the dunned line items.
