FAQ

Question : Is it possible to choose the date ?

No. The report will always display the data while selecting the last day of the current month for the overdues calculations. It is not possible to change it. The reason is that this query uses the predictions done by the Predictive Credit Management (PCM) algorithm. This algorithm is run every day and updates the predictions only for the current situation.

Question : At which level is the prediction done ?

The prediction is first done at very detailed level by FI document. Then it's aggregated at Customer Number X GBU level. The "GBU" report shows the results at Customer PRS + GBU level but you can in fact add the Customer number to have the detail. To have even more detail you need to use the jump query.
