and blw explanation
Subsequent Debits/Credits are used in cases where the quantity is in the original invoice is to remain the same. For eg.
PO 10 - $10
Gr 10 - $10
LIV 10 - $11 (Logistics Invoice Verification)
The vendor invoice is more than that in the Purchase Order. In order to correct, the Vendor may send in another invoice for
the Increased amount or a credit memo for the increased amount.
If you approve of the price increase, post the subsequent invoice received as a Subsequent Debit/Credit Invoice.
If it is a credit memo that has been received, then post the credit memo as Subsequent Debit/Credit.
This would retain the quantity but reduce the amount.
Subsequent Debit/Credit is for the case when the credit is not for the full amount eg. if the Vendor decided to credit
only the $1 overcharged.
Credit memo is for the credit of the full amount and value.
Credit Memo u2013 A credit memo is received from a vendor if you were overcharged on a previous invoice. It is processed as a reversal of a previous invoice on a quantity and value basis referencing a Purchase Order. In the same way the system assumes a corresponding goods receipt was posted for the original invoice, the system assumes a credit memo is linked to the reversal of a goods receipt. You must change the transaction from Invoice to Credit memo.
Subsequent Credit u2013 You receive a credit memo from a vendor decreasing the total invoiced value on a previous invoice, not the total invoiced quantity. You must change the transaction from Invoice to Subsequent credit. It is a reduction of value but not quantity by the amount of the credit memo.
Subsequent Debit u2013 You receive an additional invoice from a vendor because you were undercharged, increasing the total invoiced value, not the total invoiced quantity. You must change the transaction from Invoice to Subsequent debit. It is processed as an increase in value but not the quantity by the amount of the additional invoice.

  • Credit notes and debit notes

    What is the difference between credit notes and debit notes???

    Hi Friend,
    1. A transaction that reduces Amounts Receivable from a customer is a credit memo. For eg. The customer could return damaged goods.  A debit memo is a transaction that reduces Amounts Payable  to a vendor because, you send damaged goods back to your vendor.
    2. Credit memo request is a sales document used in complaints processing to request a credit memo for a customer. If the price calculated for the customer is too high, for example, because the wrong scale prices were used or a discount was forgotten, you can create a credit memo request. The credit memo request is blocked for further processing so that it can be checked. If the request is approved, you can remove the block. The system uses the credit memo request to create a credit memo.
    You can use credit memos in Sales and Distribution (SD) for assigning credit memo requests to the open invoices and in Financial Accounting (FI) for assigning  credit memos and payments to the open invoices and carry out clearing with them.  If you use both Financial Accounting (FI) and Sales and Distribution (SD),  there is a 1:1 relationship between the credit memo request and the credit memo item posted in Financial Accounting (FI). As soon as you bill the credit memo request together with other sales orders, or distribute the items of one credit memo request to several billing documents, the assignment is no longer valid and the system will not process it.
    For  credit memos, credit memo requests, and payments, you have the following assignment options:
    - Assignment to a single invoice
    - Assignment of a partial amount to an invoice
    - Assignment to several invoices
    When you post  credit memos, the payment programme processes them automatically. If the credit memo is specifically related to a particular open invoice item, the payment program automatically attempts to offset the credit memo against the open item. If it is not possible to completely offset the credit memo against an invoice, you can post a debit memo to the vendor, who is to reimburse the amount.  Then you can apply a multilevel dunning program. 
    3.  Debit memo request is a sales document used in complaints processing to request a debit memo for a customer. If the prices calculated for the customer were too low, for example, calculated with the wrong scaled prices, you can create a debit memo request. The debit memo request can be blocked so that it can be checked. When it has been approved, you can remove the block. It is  like a standard order. The system uses the debit memo request to create a debit memo.
    4.  As mentioned above, creating a credit or debit memo request enables you to create credit or debit memos based on a complaint. For this first create a sales document with the order type for a credit or debit memo  request. You can create the debit  or credit memo requests in the following ways: 
    – Without reference to an order
    – With reference to an existing order
    Here you enter which order the complaint refers to.
    – With reference to an invoice
    Here you enter which invoice the complaint refers to.
    In all cases, you specify the value or quantity that should be in the credit or debit memo
    5. You can block the credit or debit memo  request from being billed in Customizing. Go to Sales -> Sales Documents -> Sales document header -> Define sales document type and select the billing block field in the billing section.  This request can later be reviewed along with similar ones, - if necessary, by another department. The request for a credit or debit memo  can then be approved or rejected.

  • Miro debit/credit note and subsequent debit/credit

    Dear all,
    May I know under what circumstances we use debit/credit note and
    under what circumstances we use subsequent debit/credit
    Need advice.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    A subsequent debit/credit arises if a transaction has already been settled, and a further invoice or credit memo is received afterwards.
    A subsequent debit/credit changes the total invoice value of a purchase order item; the total invoice quantity remains unchanged. Therefore, only a value-based update of the purchasing transaction takes place. There is no quantity-based
    update.
    1. Subsequent Debit :-You must enter an invoice as a subsequent debit if a purchase order item has already been invoiced and further costs are now incurred. (Example: A vendor has inadvertently invoiced you at too low a price and then sends a
    second invoice for the difference.)
    2. Subsequent Credit :- You must enter a credit memo as a subsequent credit if a purchase order item was invoiced at too high a price and you have now received a credit memo. (Example: A vendor has inadvertently invoiced you at too high a price and then sends a credit memo for the difference.)
    If you enter a subsequent debit/credit, the system suggests the entire invoiced quantity, but no value. The maximum quantity that you can subsequently debit or credit is the quantity that has already been invoiced. You can only enter a subsequent debit/credit for a purchase order item if an invoice has already been posted for this item.
    A subsequent debit/credit cannot refer to a particular invoice.
    Subsequent debits and credits are listed separately in the PO history.
    3. Credit Memo :- You usually receive a credit memo from a vendor if you were overcharged. As is the case for invoices, credit memos refer to purchase orders or goods receipts.
    You post a credit memo if too large an amount has been invoiced. When you post the credit memo, the total invoiced quantity in the PO history is reduced by the credit memo quantity. The maximum quantity you can make a credit for is the quantity that has already been invoiced.
    In the same way as the corresponding goods receipt is expected or posted for the invoice, in the case of a credit memo, the system assumes that the credit memo belongs to a return delivery or reversal of the goods receipt. This means that the credit memo is settled using the GR/IR clearing account.

  • Link between Sales order and Credit master sheet

    Hi,
    Plz explain the link between sales order and credit master sheet.
    Thanks and regards
    CSR

    Hi,
    Credit master is related to Customer.
    Credit limit will be assigned to a customer by using the T.Code FD32.
    Credit control area will be assigned to a customer.
    You can the credit control area for a customer in the table "KNVV".
    Goto the T.Code "FD32".Enter your customer number and credit control area.Select the status tab.
    Here you can maintain the credit limit.If you leave blank means the limit is 0.00.
    Next thing is goto the T.Code "OVAK".
    Select your sales order.Maintain the "Credit limit check" for your order type.
    Goto the T.Code "OVA8".Select your valid combination.Here,you can activate either the static or dynamic credit limit checks.
    If you create the sales order by using the customer,initially the system will check for the credit limit.If it is 0.00 and credit check functionality is activatd in the above specified T.Codes,then creditcheck will happen and order will be blocked for releasing of credit by using the T.Code "VKM3".Authorised persons have to release this credit block.Suppose,you have maintained this credit limit as "1000Rs/-" and you are creating the order of value "550Rs/-",then your order will not be blocked even though the credit check functionality is activated for your order type.
    In this way,sales order is in turn related to credit master.

    Krishna.

  • Debit note and credit note

    hi masters
    at what situation u have to send debit note and credit note to a single party?
    regards
    raj

    Hi,
    When you are booking purchase invoice, if you received material short, then you have to issue debit note to that material supplier vendor.
    In the same material supply bill, vendor invoice less rate claimed instead of PO rate, then you have to give credit note to that vendor for rate difference.
    Hope it clear your doubt, if yes, assign points.

    Hi friends,
    can any explain about difference between sales order and credit order in SAP.
    Thanks and Regards.

    Hi Narayana,
    This Depends upon your Client Requirement.
    If you are using the Credit Management to your client. then you maintain certain checks like Simple Credit, Automatic Credit at Sales Order Level.
    If the Client want a seperate Document type for Credit Sales and Normal Sales if having Purpose.
    Other wise you can use only one Document type for both,because in Standard Sap, For Cash Sale have seperate Document type.
    Please Reward If Really Helpful,
    Thanks and Regards,

  • "Read" status of e-mail will not sync wirelessly between Lotus Notes and 8520??

    HI,
    This is my first post and I realize that this might not be the right area to post this question but my question did not seem to fit anywhere else.
    I was recently issued a BB 8520 at my new company and we work in a Lotus Notes environment and I believe it is version 7.
    This is not happening to anyone else that I know of in our company but when I read an e-mail in Lotus Notes from my desktop, wireless sync will not mark it read on my Blackberry. Also when I read an e-mail on my BB, it will not mark it read in Lotus Notes. However if I delete an e-mail in Lotus Notes, it will delete it from my BB via wireless sync. Finally, when my BB is attached to my desktop via USB, and I do a manual sync from Blackberry Desktop Manager, it will sync the "read" status of my e-mails between Lotus Notes and my BB.
    So I guess my question is why are most sync functions working via wireless sync between my e-mail in Lotus Notes and my BB, but not the "read" status of an e-mail? And I know that it works for other users in our company so it's really bothering as it is a whipping to have check e-mails that are still marked as unread (in both Lotus Notes and my BB) when I have already read them.
    Thank you and I would really appreciate any help or information that I could provide to our IT Admin at work to help him solve my problem.
    Thank you,
    Matt

  • COPA:  Credit Note and Debit Nore Quantity should not flow to COPA

    Hello Everyone,
    As per the client requirement we don't want quantity should flow to COPA report for raising debit note/Credit note ( DR/ CR note is raised by SD Cycle).  We are raising debit or Credit note for the price difference but not the quantity difference.  Please do let me know is there any way to stop flow of Quantity value to COPA report by raising Debit or Credit note.
    Thanks,
    sneha

    Hi Sneha
    1. Go to KE4W...
    2. Assign your Billing Type for Dr Note and ABMSG Qty field and check RESET
    3. Similarly, assign bill type for Cr Memo and ABSMG Qty Field and check RESET
    4. Not only for Qty, you need to do this for COGS value fields also... During Dr and Cr memo, the COGS is also adjusted by the system along with Qty....
    So, Mention your COGS value fields also in KE4W and check RESET

  • Copy control from Credit Note to Credit Memo Request

    Dear gurus,
    After I set the copy control parameters in my billing doc, source - credit memo request & Target - Credit memo,
    I could not find my condition types to be copied from my credit memo request.
    I have infact set the pricing type to D - Copy pricing elements unchanged.
    Can you let me know if I had missed anything?
    Also, to clarify on this credit concept. Say that we sent 2 pieces of a product worth $100 each & if it happened that the customer returned 1 piece , we can create a credit memo request via VA01 for the part that customer returns & if the pricing condition is $100, we create a condition value $100 back to the customer.
    So further create a credit note where this $100 is copied from Credit Memo request order type.
    This is the concept of credit correct me if i am wrong

    Hi Pri,
    Give me your mail ID I can send you some screen shot of the Copy control set from Credit memo request to credit memo.
    To clarify on Credit.
    In the first instaance we have supplied 2 items to customer and Billed them. Now he has returned one material to account for this returned material you can create a returns order and complete the cycle and then create a credit memo for the returned material.
    ELSE
    You only want to adjust for billing. Then when we have already billed customer for 2 items and out of which 1 item is returned and hence we have to give him credit memo for 1 item i.e $100 in your case.
    The condition value in Credit Memo Request (G2) would be taken from standard conition type PR00 only.
    FIRST Create a credit Memo Request (G2) in VA01
    CMR is set with a billing block
    Go to VA02 and remove the block
    Create a Credit memo Using VF01 using Billing Type G2. The system will copy the data from CMR to Credit memo once you set the Copy control in VTFA
    REWARD IF IT HELPS
