Cancel Down payment (noted item)

Hi,
Can I cancel customer down payment request?
It is noted item and I need to cancel it.
I have try to use VF11 and FB08, but it's not working.
VF11 let me cancel it, but it is still on system.
I found out, that it is not FI document at the moment, but it is statistical document. So I don't have do anything if I don't want to. But this document is show up in FBL5N. There is some other down payment also, so this one complicate this list at the moment.
Can i remove it from this list?
Best regards T

Dear T,
The system is working as designed in this case.
When a downpayment request is reversed, the reversal FI document
does not contain any line items, it just contains a document header.
This is standard behavior. So this reversal document is not displayed
in transaction FBL1N (-> noted items). But this is no problem.
Downpayment requests are just noted items, which do not update
the transaction figures and the balances of accounts.
When you book a down payment request it gets a entry in the BKPF and
the BSEG. It has normally just one document line item.
If you now reverse the down payment request, the reverse just get
a table entry in the BKPF. They both get linked over two fields
BKPF-STBLG and BKPF-STJAH.
Because of that the line item display just shows you the first booking
and not the reverse, because the reverse got no line item.
I hope this can help.

Down payment line item not generated in Invoice

Dear Gurus,
I am using the standard down payment functionality as follows
Create contract will Billing plan
- Down payment 100% (500)
- Invoice year 1 50% (250)
- Closing Invoice 50% (250)
Customer pays Down payment 500
When I create the year 1 invoice, I expected 2 lines i.e.
10. Invoice 250
11. Down payment clearing 250
However the Down payment (DP) line is not created. Can you please help on this?. Why is no DP line generated?
I have followed all down payment configuration steps. Which configuration step could be missing??
Thanks for your help!

Moses

Hi Ivano,

BSEG-VBEL2 is not filled by the contract number
BSEG-POSN2 is not filled
Which configuration is missing?

A/P Down Payment Invoice Item/Service Type

Dear Experts,
Just wondering why in A/P Down Payment Invoice for the Item Type, the G/L Account i can view and select the G/L Account in a List. However, in A/P Down Payment Invoice for the Service Type i ONLY can view and select the only one G/L Account which i have been set at Adminstration-> Setup-> Financial-> G/L Account Detremination-> Purchase Tab for Down Payment Clearing Account.
Your Reply is highly appreciated.
Thanks.
Regards,
Danny

The Clearing accounts is just that, a place where the down payment amount temporary sits, until it is cleared out through normal business processing. Having all the down payment amounts residing in a single expense account makes reporting this expense much easier from a General Ledger perspective.
With that being said, you can create down payment clearing accounts at the Business Partner level, this giving you the ability to use different accounts: Business Partners > Business Partner Master Data > Accounting > General Tab.
Hope that helps.

How to clear Noted Items appearing in FBL5N

HI All,
I have an issue as below. One of our customer posted one noted item, later he created a down payment transaction.
While doing this down payment, he cleared the noted item.
Now the noted item appears as cleared item and down payment made is appearing as open item in transaction FBL5N.
Here I would like to suggest the customer to revese the down payment transaction and post a customer Invoice and clear that customer invoice by down payment transaction.
But here my question is if we do reverse the down payment transaction posted initially, then noted item will appear as open item.
Now, How to clear the open item.
Awaiting for your responses.
Thanks
Prasad

Dear prasad naga,
I want to clarify your question and i will give you my answer depending on your question understanding.
Firstly you want to clear the noted item (down payment request) with the in voice or to be cleared anyway.
So when you create the down payment you select the noted item to create new down payment while the noted item has no financial effect, secondly when yu create the invoice and clear down payment with it it will clear down payment (noted item was cleared depending on creating the down payment on it). So where is the problem??
I hope it helps you

Credit Note issue against AR Down payment

Hi,
The business process is down payment and milestone billing. We have raised the FAZ for the down payment for 100 EUR and we have recieved the payment from customer and posted the same in F-29.
1. We have to raise the credit memo against the down payment ( We need to cancel the cleared down payment). When issuing credit note against the credit memo, the following message appears:
No account is specified in item 0000001001
Message no. F5670
Diagnosis
No account was specified for account type "S" in item "0000001001" of the FI/CO document.
System Response
The Financial Accounting program cannot process the document.
Procedure
A system error has probably occurred in the application you called up. Check the data transferred to item "0000001001" of the FI/CO document.
2. If we try to create the final invoice then the down payment recieved line item also will be flown. And if try to issue the credit note agaisnt the Billing document also the same issue.
Normally the Down payment is noted item and we are doing manual posting of incoming payment in FI. And the same we are clearing. And we need to issue the Credit note. And there is no account determination for the down payment line item.
Please advise.
Thanks

Hi ,
We have done the document reverse and reset in FBRA.or normal item cancel in FB08.
Business want to issue Debit Note with reference to the Down payment invoice(FAZ). While doing the same I am facing the account determination issue, as the down payment is with only noted item.
Hope my issue is understood correctly.

Noted Item posting error

Hi,
I want to create a separate noted item as down payment request and assign to separate special GL indicator. but the system is not allowing to create a new noted item for down payment/down payment request, it says "Down payments and noted items not possible for special G/L indicator X". But my requirement is to use a separate request indicator other than "F".
Please give a solution for this,
Thanks,
Regards
Gayani

For Down Payment or Down Payment Request noted item standard SGL is F. which you can not modify. Further For Down paymnet noted item you can not use any other indicator other than F. This is standard SAP functionality.
However for Other you can create new SGL indicator for noted item.

AuC Down Payment not clearing

Hi Gurus,
The scenario is that we are using WBS elements to collect costs for AuC. So project Consumption POs were raised and down payments were made against them. Now at the year end some of these need to be settled to AuC.
This we did and down payments appeared on AuC through a default cost element mentioned in PS IMG u2018Define default cost elements for down paymentsu2019. This vendor down payment element 7XXXXXX has no Company code segment.
We understand that these down payments are to be cleared but since the account assignment object in actual vendor down payment line item has WBS element and when we clear it through F-52, clearing doesnu2019t update (FI AA) asset data since no asset number is mentioned in actual vendor down payment line item. So it keeps throwing following error message.
Down payment to recipient 7011000002 0 area 01 amount 2,200.00 not cleared
Message no. AW605
Diagnosis
All downpayments were not cleared for the asset under construction for the receiver 7011000002 0 in area 01. An amount of 2,200.00 was not cleared, or too much was cleared.
You can only completely transfer an asset under construction if you reverse the down payments in the current fiscal year beforehand.
Procedure
Clear the downpayments that you want to settle to receiver 7011000002 0.
Please help how to settle this without reversing downpayments as checks were issued to vendors already.

Hi
Reverse the settlement of WBS to AUC, first of all....
Clear the downpayments, which would again post to WBS...
Now settle WBS to AUC and AUC to Final asset...

Down Payment From Customer

Dear all,
Can any body tell me how to link customer down payment with Billing Document?
My scenario is "customer give 100 rs down payment while billing of 500 rs that down payment 100 rs should be subtract from 500 rs".
Thanks & Regards,

The following Customizing settings have to be made for down payment processing:
Settings for the billing plan - To activate the billing plan function, maintain the materials, for which you wish to process down payments, with item category group 0005 (milestone billing). This gives the item type TAO via item type determination. The item type TAO calls up the billing plan function.
You need to implement the following activities in the billing plan for down payments:
Maintain deadline category - This determines the billing rule (percentage or value down payment) for the down payment request. The system assigns billing type FAZ (payment request) defined in the standard system with billing category P. (For the billing type FAZ there is the cancellation billing document type FAS in the standard system).
Maintain the deadline proposal - Use the down payments that are due for the proposed deadlines.
Maintaining a Pricing Procedure with the Condition Type AZWR:
In the standard system the condition type AZWR is delivered for the down payment value already provided but which has not yet been calculated. You must include this condition type in the relevant pricing procedure before output tax.
Enter condition 2 (item with pricing) and the calculation formula 48 (down payment clearing value must not be bigger than the item value) for the condition type AZWR.
Before the condition AZWR you can create a subtotal with the base value calculation formula 2 (net value). If the condition AZWR is changed manually, you can get information on the original system proposal from the subtotal.
Maintain the printing indicator - The pricing procedure can not be marked as a transaction-specific pricing procedure (field Spec.proc.) The condition type AZWR has the calculation type B (fixed amount) and the condition category E (down payment request / clearing).
Maintaining the Billing Document - In the standard system there is the billing type FAZ (down payment request) and the billing type FAS for canceling . The down payment is controlled using the billing category P of the billing type. A billing type becomes a down payment request when the billing category P is assigned. You have to maintain blocking reason 02 (complete confirmation missing) for the billing documents and assign it to billing type FAZ.
Copying control - Copying requirement 20 must be entered in copying control at item level for the down payment request. In the standard system the order type TA for copying control is set up according to the billing type FAZ for the item category TAO.
Copying requirement 23 must be entered in copying control at item level for down payment clearing. In the standard system the order type TA for copying control is set up according to the billing type F2 for the item category TAO.
Financial Accounting settings - A prerequisite for down payment processing is that the account is assigned to the underlying sales document. To do this, change the field status settings in Customizing as follows:
Set reconciliation accounts (transaction OBXR) - For the `received down payments' and `down payment requests' from
the G/L accounts you have selected, you should assign the field status definition G031.
Maintain accounting configuration (transaction OBXB) - For the down payments (posting key ANZ in the standard system) and the output tax clearing (posting key MVA in the standard system), you must maintain the posting key.
You must also carry out a G/L account number assignment for the tax account.
Maintain the posting key (transaction OB41) - For posting key 19, set the sales order as an optional field !!!
Maintain the field status definition (transaction OB14) - For field status variant 0001, field status group G031, set the
sales order as an optional field !!!
Assign the company code to the field status variants (transaction OBC5)

Down payment process for Poland, new business process or not ?

Hello,
I'm a little bit confused about implementation down payment process for Poland.
The OSS-notes 818079 and 1007635 describe a solution for this.
How do I have to implement the correct down payment process for Poland ? Do I have to create an extra business process with new sales order type, new billing type, separate calculation procedure, new output type and so on ?
Or is it possible to use existing business processes in sales and distribution for down payment processes ?
Thanks in advance

How TDS Reverse at the time of Down Payment Clearing F54

Dear Friends,
Please let me know what is the process or configuration we have to do for clear TDS in F-54.
my scenario is I made down payment of Rs. 10000/- with TDS.
next we are doing MIRO for Rs. 50000/- with TDS full amount
Then I m adjusting down payment against Invoice no. which I deduct TDS for Rs. 10000/-in F-54
in this transaction TDS should be reverse for Rs.10000/-
I checked tax type for payment as central invoice processing. but it is also not working.
Please anyone know regarding this issue let me know.
Thanks in Advance.
JD

Hi,
After MIRO posting, please note the following method :
F-54 - Enter all the header data details, Vendor Code, Enter the relevant Document (Invoice) No.which you need to adjust with Down Payment (10000) made.
Select to Process down payments
The next screen shows the down payment document no. and it shows amount & available amount by line item wise.      Amount & available column shows as 10000.
Select the relevant down payment line item and double click in the last tab "Transfer Posting"
This tab shows the final amount (after adjusting down payment).
Go to left side corner and through pull down menu select "document" and "simulate"
The document shows the overview of the reversal entry for the relevant down payment with TDS amount.
Please ensure that the tax line items display.
If you are not getting the tax line items overview, go to document and select "simulate" once again.
Finally, the document display all the line items including tax line items with blue colour.
Double click relevant line item and enter your text "Adv adjusted for doc ref......"
Simulate and post.
Result:
Then you check through FBL1N for the relevant vendor, the open item shows only 40000 after adjusting the down payment.
The cleared line item shows both down payment as well as cleared payments.
Hope that it may useful.   If you are getting any error, please give the details.

Down Payment Processing in Milestone billing

I have created sales order that does milestone billing. The down payment is 10 % of amount - Billing type FAZ and condition type AZWR is included in Pricing Procedure and ERL is asigned.
I also have done all the required settings from the help file at:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/4a/ac853478616434e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm.
But the sales order still says G/L account not found and not saving. Is the G/L account need to found at sales order itself ? If so, where in sales oredr type I have to assigne account determination like KOFI00 etc ? Can any explain this ?
Does the down payment in sales order do the account determination to find G/L account as in case of regeualr billing docs ?

Copying requirement 23 must be entered in copying control at item level for down payment clearing. In the standard system the order type TA for copying control is set up according to the billing type F2 for the item category TAO.
Financial Accounting settings - A prerequisite for down payment processing is that the account is assigned to the underlying sales document. To do this, change the field status settings in Customizing as follows:
Set reconciliation accounts (transaction OBXR) - For the `received down payments' and `down payment requests' from
the G/L accounts you have selected, you should assign the field status definition G031.
Maintain accounting configuration (transaction OBXB) - For the down payments (posting key ANZ in the standard system) and the output tax clearing (posting key MVA in the standard system), you must maintain the posting key.
You must also carry out a G/L account number assignment for the tax account.
Maintain the posting key (transaction OB41) - For posting key 19, set the sales order as an optional field !!!
Maintain the field status definition (transaction OB14) - For field status variant 0001, field status group G031, set the
sales order as an optional field !!!
Assign the company code to the field status variants (transaction OBC5)

Condition Type AZWR for Down Payments

Hi All,
I am Working on Down Paymnet Requests (Billing Type FAZ). As per the OSS note i understand that we need AZWR Conditon type for Down Paymnet.
I understand that it is for Value check for a down payment clearing item because the value of AZWR can be changed manually.If the value of AZWR from the down payment clearing item exceeds the agreed value in the order, the system displays an error message
Can you any body explain this more in detail.Thanks
Regards
Basha

Hi Basha,
Please refer to note 213567:
8. Messages in the FI/CO interface
    a) VF525: "Total of down payment to be billed too high."
       VF050: "Document & saved (no accounting document generated)"
       In the standard system, you cannot perform a clearing of down
       payment items with a total that is higher than the value of the
       corresponding item to be settled from the partial or final
       invoice.A billing document is created, but it cannot be
       transferred to Financial Accounting because sending credit memos
       to customers as part of down payments is not supported.However,
       you do have the option to adjust the value of the down payment
       clearing item (condition AZWR) according to the item to be
       settled when you create the invoice.In this case, the remainder
       of the down payment assigned to this item is proposed again for
       clearing in the next partial or final invoice.
According to note 213526 we would use in standard the downpayment
condition AZWR for this process. This condition type could be changed
manually in the invoice. We could reduce the downpayment values
manually and message VF 525 would not appear again, when the downpayment
values would be lower or equal to the main item.
I hope this is helpful.
Regards,
Alex
