Description:  With the Analyze Clearing Locks (F1653, deprecated) and Analyze Clearing Locks (F1653A) apps, you display valid clearing locks for receivables and payables. As data volume can be very high, to improve performance, the Analyze Clearing Locks (F1653A) app evaluates a system snapshot of receivables and payables instead of the current live data. You create the snapshot as required by using the Create Snapshot of Locked Open Items app. Note The app only selects those locks that are currently valid.The app does not display locks that were valid in the past or become valid in the future. 
Within this app an Accounts Payable/Receivable Manager (FI-CA) who among others might need to identify revenue leakages and improve cash-flow will be provided with the number of dunning locks or alternatively with the amount of items from SAP Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA ) back end system blocked against being cleared. This information can be displayed dependent on various grouping and filter criteria. 
In case of finding irregularities the Accounts Payable/Receivable Manager (FI-CA) can create a clarification work list for being processed in back office.
Key features:  The KPI tag indicates the age of the snapshot evaluated by the app. Provided you have the necessary authorization, you can access the Create Snapshot of Locked Open Items app from the tag. Using the available filters, you can restrict the selected data to your requirements. Example Filter the locks, for example, by lock reason and expiration date. The selected locks are displayed in a chart and a table. In the chart view, the system displays the amounts related to the various lock object categories in the selected currency. The legend indicates which lock object categories occur. Should items be locked by different types of locks, they are displayed as Multiple Levels. There are various options available to adapt the display of the data in the chart.Example By choosing View by, you can group the locks by expiration date or duration, for example, by months or days.Under Settings, on the Chart tab, you can adapt the dimensions displayed in the chart. Under Measures, you can switch between a display of the number of items and amounts per object lock category. The table view lists the number of items with their total locked amounts per business partner as well as the total locked amount and total number of items. By selecting one or more business partners from the table and choosing Create Worklist, you can create a worklist for follow-up. When you process the worklists, you can trigger follow-up activities. Note In order for the system to generate worklists in the backend system, the FICA_EHP7_B1 Business Function must be active in the client of the backend system in which you would like to process the worklists. In the backend system, you process and monitor the worklists in the FPCKWL transaction.
