Customer numbers and payment terms

Is there a way of having multiple payment terms for a single customer depending on product?
Our payment terms vary depending on the product. To solve this we have created upto 5 customer codes with different terms for the same physical customer. The products are assigned to the relevant customer code.
This set up works fine financially but is a pain for distribution planning. There is no link in SAP to recognise that some customers are the same and can be combined into single loads.
All thoughts and suggestions welcome!
Thanks

Yes this is a genuine business requirement. The best approach to address this is instead of changing the payment terms each and every time in customer master, the same can be done while creating sale order. Based on some logic only, this will differ and if possible, may be you can apply a suitable exit to overwrite from customer master. Dont encourage to change in customer master at any cost.

Auto update of Valid to and Payment Terms field

Hi,
I have a scenario, where based on the Net value of the document, Valid To date of the Quotation and Payment Terms should auto populate.
Ex: If Net value is above 5lks, then payment terms should be 100% with in 20 days from current day and valid to date is also 20 days from now. Like wise, if Net value is below 5lks, then payment terms and valid to date should be 10 days.
Thanks for response in advance.

Reason code and payment terms

Hi Gurus,
Is there any link between reason codes and payment terms ?
When I am posting a document or creating any residual and assign a reason code, it automatically assign a payment term and which i am unable to change.
any advice, suggestion would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
There is no direct link between Reason Code and Payment terms.
Reason code is the key actually specify the reason for payment difference it can be any reason like DISPUTE - TAX, DISPUTE - IN PRICE, DISPUTE EX - QTY and so on and those we can define.
Where as Payment Term are used to define
1. Base line date for due date calculation
2. Cash discount periods
3. Cash discount percentage rated
And the Payment Term which is coming by default while posting the document is the same one which has been defined in your master data for that customer. So I would suggest you check the master for that customer and surely you will find the same payment term updated there as well.
But it not means that you can not changed Payment term while creating or posting document, you change it and it will supersede you master data payment term.
Hope this will answer your query.

Authorization for Credit, Commitment Limit and Payment Terms

It's very required to have authorization for Credit Limit, Commitment Limit and Payment Terms change. Currently it's very hard to control limits as every user can change these values and omit approval procedure or authorization for Confirm Credit Line Deviation and Confirm Debt Line Deviation.

Thanks, You were right. It runs well for the sales order with out delivery. After I create delivery in reference to this sales order and change payment terms in sales order there is no new credit control check.
Is there a possibility to run credit control check after a delivery is created?

Yeah ,
This will be maintianing a output type for a specific order in the Nace Configuarations for output type for the application say in ur case Payment advices.
Here u need to maintain a program name (driver program) and a form routine as Entry in the processing routines .
You need to write the logic in this driver program which is a Zprogram.
Now when ever the application is run the output type is enabled and so the driver program will execute the logic pertaining to the entries created by ur transaction.
can achieve this with SO_OBJECT_SEND for the customer id .
hope this gives u an idea ..
i dont know about payment advices so can t elaborate more than this but the process will be same.

vijay

Is it advisable to use the charcter "&" in customer numbers and in business

Is it advisable to use the charcter "&" in customer numbers and in business partner naming?
Are there any restrictions in using wild characters for customer numbers. KNA1-KUNNR field.

Dear Chandramouli,
In the name you can use but in the no. not advisable I believe. When you are defining the no range, it is as following:
Intervals can only contain either letters or numbers, as sorting can differ between platforms (Code page):
Allowed: 000001 to 999999
AAAAAA to ZZZZZZ
Not allowed: AAAAAA to 999999
Please find the SAP help on this.
Thanks,

Dunning and Payment Terms

Hello Gurus,
I am working on Dunning procedures. We have a Dunning procedure at 3 levels - 30, 60 and 90 days.
The requirement is to have a 15 days grace period. The dunning letters need to be printed taking into affect grace period and it should be done at 46, 76 and 106 days. So far this to happen, I think the payment terms should be Net 15 days. ( I guess the DUnning procedure grace period will not help for this ).
Can you please suggest if this is correct i.e., the Payment terms should be 'Net 15 days' for the Customers for whom the Dunning is to be run. If the Payment terms is 'Payable immediately' than the Dunning happens at 30, 60 and 90 days. Can you please confirm if this is how the system should behave.
Thanks,
SNK.

If the grace period of 15 days is applicable only to certain customers then yes, create a 15 days net payment term and assign to those customer master.
If the grace period of 15 days is applicable to all the customer, then it is best to change the days in dunning procedure itself.

Draft invoice and payment terms

A customer has 30 day credit terms (for example), but when creating a DRAFT invoice the docuemnt date, posting date and due date defaults to todays date.
When converting the draft invoice to an INVOICE, the due date remains as today - not the payment terms of 30 days from posting date.
How can the payment terms be activated to ensure correct aging of the invoice?
2005A PL23

The 'due date' appears as soon as the Customer is selected in Invoice not while saving as 'Draft'. The due date is based on the 'Payment Terms' set in the 'BP Master Data'.
I request you to check if the 'Due Date' is set properly before saving the document as draft. It should be as per the payment Terms of the BP. If not check the Payment Terms of the BP.
I have checked this feature with SAP B1 2005B PL: 38 and works properly.

Credit limit check and Payment terms

HI,
Is it possibile to enforce new credit limit check when the payment term is changed? Let's say that customer has "Immediate payment", and after few days wants to change payment term for "90 days payment term". In such case system should check new credit limit check on a sales order (va02). Could you tell me how to do that?
Best regards,
MK

Due date and payment terms data

Hi All,
Goodday to you all!
My client is posting one transfer posting.
He is transferring the normal customer line items to special GL items through FB01.
Giving the first lime item posting key as 09 and customer number and special gl indicator
But after going inside only the Dueon field shows as mandatory and there is no field called Payment terms.
This dueon field is for taking the baseline date for calculating the due date.
The payment terms field is optional in both the field status (Posting key as well as GL account field status variant)
But the payment terms field is not showing while entering the transfer document !
Can anybody advise me on this /
Thanks in advance
Shankar

Hi Shankar,
> Goto Tcode OBC4
> select your field status variant
> DoubleClick on Field status groups
> Goto General (with text, allocation) - G001 (incase of standard SAP)
>Goto payment transactions
> Click on Req Entry or opt. entry in front of payment terms.
Payment terms will appear in FB01

Relationship between condition type and payment term

Hi,
I created a purchase order (only 1 item) with with payment term "Within 14 days 2 % cash discount" So a condition type SKTO auto added for the item with discount is 2%.
can anybody show me the relationship between payment term with the condition type and the IMG T.code to make this relationship?
Thanks
Long

If you go to IMG - MM- Purchasing - conditions- Define price determination process - Define Condition types
For SKTO the condition category is E- Cash discount
For this condition type which is defined in the calculation procedure , the system internally derives a percentage from the terms of payment and inserts it in the condition type with the category E
