Blocking a Down payment for a particular vendor

Hi Gurus,
Can i block payments in form of Down payments to a particular vendor. All other bills that are due are eligible to be paid.
I need this control to ensure that Payments for a particular vendor is always against an invoice and not downpayment.
I cannot put the payment block in the vendor master because it will block payments for all other invoices
Please help
Thanks so much

Hi.
I am Basically MM guy. To resolve this issue I would like to suggest a work around.
You can use the two payment terms.
1) One payment term in the company code (In vendor master record in the Payment transaction accounting). In this payment term you have set a payment block indicator
By doing this system will block all the invoices or Down payment which are posted in FI. Against this vendor. Hence system will not allow you to pay to this vendor against down payment.
2) Another payment terms in the purchasing view of the Vendor master. In this payment terms do not set any block.
When you post an invoice against a PO your accounting document will not be blocked.
Hence you can pay to a vendor with reference to PO invoice.
I am not sure. I hope it will work. If it helps award me.
Cheers
Umakanth

  • Vendor down payments for one time vendor

    Hi There,
    I am not sure why this is happening, but when we try and post a down payment to a one time vendor, it comes up with the error F5 265.
    When we do this for a normal Vendor it is OK.
    Has anyone come across this?
    Is there some special config required to activate one time vendors for Down payments?

    Special GL transactions (like down payments) are not allowed for one-time vendors.  Please refer to the following SAP Note.

    Dear Experts,
    How can we block, a particular payment term for a particular vendor.

    Hi Chandra,
    If you want to block payment term for "particular vendor" then you need to define a validation rule.
    As per my understanding, the link provided by Owen will block term for all vendors.

  • Down payment for Stock Vendors

    Hi,
    I need to create a down payment for stock vendors, If I create an invoicing plan but then I get this error saying "Invoicing plan not possible in case of GR-based invoice verification".
    My scenario is that do make down payments to Stock vendors based on POs, is there any other way of nadling down payments for stock vendors.
    thanks

    Use transaction F-48 to create the down payment for Vendor.
    than once you post the invoice it will know off the downpayment amount when the FI people clearing the invoice you posted.
    You can post down payment aginst vendor with PO also.

  • Payment Block in Down Payment

    Dear All
    While doing down payment to a Vendor F-48. , the Payment Block Field is automatically getting filled with Block Indicator A(means Locked for payment).
    Even if I am trying manually to remove it, it is automatically getting filled.
    I dont need it.
    Please advice.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi,
    You can modify the payment block from Down Payment Document once it has been posted using config step in TCode OB32.
    Here you choose teh following:
    Field - BSEG-ZLSPR
    Acct Type - K
    Transaction Type - A
    Then select the field "Field can be changed".
    Hope this helps you.

  • How to stop PR creation from PM work order for a particular vendor?

    Hello Experts,
    We have following scenario for breakdown maintenance activities.
    When a machine breaks down, a breakdown order is created in SAP. The external manintenance services are planned in the order. When the order is released, a single PR (with multiple item numbers corresponding to number of services) is created by SAP. The PR has a release strategy. When PR is released, PO is created followed by the SES.
    The practice followed AS -IS for breakdown outside business hours:- If the breakdown happens outside business working hours, the person releasing the PRs is not available & hence PR can not be released resulting in no PO & no subsequent SES.
    In this case, the maintenance is completed by the external agency & the work order is TECO. The next day, TECO is reveresed, new PR is created, released, converted into PO, & then SES.
    TO-BE process:- Client expects that, for certain vendors identified, PR should not get created at all from the breakdown order. (The list of  vendors will be maintained seperately). For these vendors, a framework order will be created at the start of fiscal year & SES will be created as & when required agaainst the framework order.
    My concern is :- How to stop PR creation from PM work order for a particular vendor? OR delete the created PR?
    Highly appreciate your quick response.
    Thank you.

    Dear Amit
    I am giving a different dimension to your question check if it fulfills your requirement -
    As we know Vendor selection comes at a later stage only after your PR creation, approval & RFQ etc. & PR generation from maintaine. order is controllled through control key PM03.  While triggering PR from order you have to specify Material group, Purchase group and vendor. Try to control it through authorisation as all these are authorisation objects. The persons executing breakdown order shall no t be given this authoriations

  • Asset Down Payment  for AUC

    Hi,
    I am having a query in Asset Down Payment  for AUC
    I have configured for both Acquisition: down payments and Down-payments clearing account in 'AO90' in asset module.
    But I am still not clear why Down-payments clearing account account needs to be configured.
    The entry I am getting are
    1. F-47 DP request - I enter the Asset number here. Noted item.
    2. F-48 -DP- an entry is created as follows:
    Vendor     Dr     1000
    Bank     Cr     1000
    Acquisition: down payments     Dr     1000
    Down-payments clearing account     Cr     1000
    3. Now the Down-payments clearing account shows a credit balance all the time.
    How should this be rectified

    Vidhya

    Hi Vidya,
    Option 1: When you follow based on your example, ie., asset debited during down payment entry, asset entry will be reversed when you adjust down payment against invoice.
    Option 2: Down payment request and down payment made against AUC asset with reference to Purchase order:
    With reference to PO: Please refer sap note number 310368 valuated goods receipt paragraph and they have clearly mentioned about making down payments against asset/AUC purchase order without getting debited to asset account.
    You have to make F5 378 message number to be a warning message instead of error message and you have to suppress asset related settings in OB41 posting keys 29 and 39. Posting key 39 is useful when you have down payment request.
    If you have done this, then it will show only warning message during down payment that "purchase order is related to asset" and it will not be debited to asset account. Also after following the above steps, it is not necessary for you to give Acquisition: down payments G/L and Down payment clearing G/L in AO90 transaction code.
    Hope this helps. Assign points if useful.

    Dwarak.

    In XK06, flagging Vendor for deletion, I get warning "vendor xxxxx has open items in company code xxxx". Does this mean open Invoice Items, pending payment in FI? Since this is just warning I can hit enter and go ahead and save.
    - YES YOU ARE RIGHT. IT CAN ALSO INCLUDE OPEN PO.
    But, I can come back to XK06 and UNflag this same vendor for deletion? How would it affect the open items/POs...etc?
    - THAT'S WHY THE MESSAGE IS AN WARNING AND NOT AN ERROR. (My Opinion)
    Does basis has to do some sort of execution in order to actually delete the vendor master from the database? Would basis get a error when there are pending open items for vendors flagged for deletion?
    - NOT RECOMMENDED. ANY DATA CAN BE DELETED THOUGH. IF YOU ARE ON ECC 5.0 OR ABOVE AND USING SE16N TO DELETE, YOU WILL NOT GET AN ERROR.
    What's the advantage of using XK05 (blocking/unblocking) over XK06 (flagging/unflagging for deletion)?
    - NOT SURE IF THERE IS ANY ADVANTAGE.

  • Problem of Down Payment for the Asset under Construction

    Hi All:
    My problem is, after do down payment for the AuC, we got an additional amount under the values booked of AuC, double checked the accounting document, found that system generated two items when doing actual settlement with t-code CJ88, for example, when display asset value, system lists the value as follows:
    Net book value: 194,325 (Normally only has this value under the AuC)
    Down payment: 93,950
    I don't know why? And how to balance the asset values? Please give me some hint, thanks in advance.
    Thanks
    Kai
    Edited by: Kai Jiang on Jan 14, 2009 6:52 AM

    Hi,
    I think the system behavior is right ! When posting the final invoice and clearing the down payment the additional items (Down payment: 93,950) were cleared. Go ahead!
    Good luck

  • Down payment for Normal Assets

    Dear Experts,
    I have an issue on Down payment for Fixed Asset.
    User created an Fixed Asset (Normal Asset) which is not a AUC Asset.Created a P.O and Assigned that Asset into the P.O.  Now he want to post the downpayment request for the same through F-47. Now they are getting the below error.
    You cannot use this transaction type to post to this asset
    Message no. AA 834
    Diagnosis
    The transaction type entered belomgs to transaction type group 15. It has been specified for this transaction type group, that it is only allowed to post to asset classes for which it has been explicitly allowed (for example, the asset class for assets under construction). The asset to which you are posting belongs to class 46 (chart of depreciation XXX). You cannot post to this asset class using the transaction type entered.
    Procedure
    Check the asset number you entered. You may want to allow posting to this asset class using this transaction type group.
    here i have the below doubts.
    1. Can we assign the other than AUC Asset Class in OAYB for down payment (Group 15).  but the system is showing the AUC Asset Classes only.
    2. Can we assign GL Accounts for Down payment and down payment clearing accounts in AO85 other than AUC Asset Classes also?  becasue if i check F1 help for those fields its saying only for AUC Asset Classes.
    Kindly help me for how to do the down payment for Normal Assets.
    regards,
    Gopi.P

    Hi,
    I have a simple solution for you, which treats your down payments made to asset POs also same manner as down payments to normal POs.

  • How to create down payment for contract

    Hi Gurus,
    Can any one tell me the process of Initial Down Payment
    for Value Contract?

    Hi Marcin,
    As far I know, the functionality of entering down payment in header will not allow you to post the DPR at header level, it has been given an option to enter the DPR as against at line item level available before.
    Looking from a logical point of view, if a PO has more than one line item then then how to determine against which item the DPR has been entered, there may be line items with different delivery dates say one line item requires a down payment to be made, and the other doesn't and also it may come in much before than the item against which the DPR has been made, then it will be a mess for Finance to decide whether to pay for this item or balance the invoice against DPR.
