Down Payment Invoice in Sap Business One 2007

Question

hi
  Scenario.
  Before Creating Sales Order Advance is taken from customer. Then Sales Order is created .
  Before delivery performa invoice is raised indicating Advance & Balance Amount against that Sale Order
  Example price = 225000 Taxes = 23410 Advance = 75000 Balance = 178410.  Then finally invoice is raised for the full amount.
   How this can be done.
   Is there any document on How to link Customer Advance with A/R Invoice for Sap Business One 2007.
Thanks

Hi Manish,
The following would apply to 2007A but I would think it's the same or very similar for 2007B:
1.  Enter your Sales Order - don't click 'Add' if you've also received a payment (advance payment or deposit)
2.  Click on the Payment Means (money bag) icon
3.  Select the payment method and enter the amount information, etc. (like a regular incoming payment)
4.  Click OK to save the changes; you will return to the S/O window
5.  Click Add to save the S/O and payment.
When doing this, SAP will not only add your S/O but create and AR DownPayment Invoice & Incoming Payment, all linked together.
If you've already processed your S/O, open it and copy it to an AR DownPayment Invoice.
Enter the DPM amount in the footer section.
Do steps 2 & 3 (above).
Add the AR DP invoice.
When ready to process the invoice, be sure to link the DPM before adding it otherwise there will be some manual steps to do.
Hope this helps,
Heather
