Downpayment clearing

Hi guys
I am using doc types KR and KN for downpayment. if i use doc type KR, i can clear the downpayment with no problem - however if i use doc type KN, i cannot. Can anyone suggest what i need to do to fix this?
I am using F-47 for downpayment and F-54 for clearing
Thanks!

Need of downpayment clearing (F-54)

Dear Experts
Why do we need to the clearing of downpayment through (F-54)?
In our scenario -
1. We create the 100% downpayment request F-47 (spl GL - A)
2. F110 makes the payment ( vendor spl GL A debit and bank a/c credit)
3. Goods receipt is done
4. Then Downpayment clearing is done (f-54) - transferred to normal GL
5. Invoice verfication (MIRO)
6. F-44 - clearing of normal GL lines of point 4 & 5
So if we avoid the step 4 ie. downpayment clearing (F-54), and directly do the clearing of transaction through F-44 of points 2 ( spl GL debit) with point 5 ( normal gl credit), will it make any differences?
I've checked the accounting & found that the system generates a document with Vendor Spl GL Credit & Vendor Normal GL Debit thus clearing the vendor lines of point 2 & 5 respectively.
Is it ok to go ahead like this? Besdies accouning, can I be affected on reporting issues?
Kindly advise.
Regards
Kapil

There should be one change in your defined scenario step 4 would be coming after step 5 -Invoice receipt and not after step 3-goods receipt. Down payment clearing in F-54 clears down payment against the invoice of vendor. It is the standard transaction for manual clearing of down payments with features to enter directly the invoice number and select the open down payments for a particular vendor.
There are not much differences with F-44 except some minor ones lik that standard document type KA is used in F-54 insead of general clearing document AB in F-44.
So although F-44 would also achieve the same purpose as F-54 I dont see much value in using it instead of F-54 which is the standard transaction for clearing downpayments against a particular invoice of particular vendor. It should not have impact on any standard reports.
Also it is possible to clear downpayments with payment program against the invoice, check the below documentation for details.

TDS not getting reversed while downpayment clearing against invoice

Hi all,
We have 2 company codes and in India and another in Abroad.
Suppose In F-48 i did downpaymnet to vendor for 1000rs, here TDS is
dedeucted say for example 50 rs. After that in F-43, i made an invoice
for 2000 for the same vendor, here TDS deducted 100rs. Now in F-54, i
did downpayment clearing against the invoce, the TDS amount 50rs got
reversed which was deducted at the time of downpayment.
This is happening properly for my India company code.
But for the company code which is in abroad, the TDS account is not
getting accounted. Actually it should behave as per my indian company
code, but TDS is not getting reverses...TDS account is not coming al
all for this company code in F-54.
I have checked all the configuration and everything is perfect.
Pls through someligt on this what could be the rerason weather i
missed any configuration or any seperate configuration for company
codes which r not in India??
Thanks in advance,....
Regards,
Sreekanth.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I am doing the reversal with reference to invoice number only. I forgot to mention this in my original question.

Downpayment clearing for opentext automatic invoice posting

Hello everyone. My client is using OpenText VIM ( Vendor Invoice Management ) for incoming invoices. VIM automatically triggers FB60 (in case of PO invoice) & MIRO ( In case of PO invoice ). The invoice posting happens automatically in the background which doesn't allow automatic vendor downpayment clearing against these invoices ( done my a 'down payment clearing' push button in normal circumstances in MIRO when posting the invoice manually ). My client doesnt want to use F-54 for downpayment clearing after MIRO. Many of your clients now-a-days would be using automatic invoice posting , how are you guys managing the automatic downpayment process. I would really appreciate any kind of help. Thanks in advance

IN A090 metioned the account under down payment clearing account field.

TDS - not reversed during downpayment clearing - in MIRO

Hello Experts
In my example, I am using EHP4 functionality for downpayment. Hence I have down following steps:
1. Mentioned downpayment amount in Purchase Order.
2. Made payment in F-48 (with reference to Purchase Order) and TDS Deducted
3. Done GRN (MIGO)
4. Invoice verification (MIRO). While I am doing MIRO, I have selected downpayment. Now when i select downpayment, it should reverse the TDS deducted on advance (like F-54). But SAP has not deducted
However, it is working in F-54. Please help me.
Meena

Hi Mukhtar,
With new EHP4 functionality, downpayment clearing can be done in MIRO. When i do this clearing, there is not further amount available for downpayment clearing in F-54.
So only i am asking.

Downpayment Clearing assumes Withholding tax base as 0, but calculates withholding tax

Hello All,
I have found a strange issue while trying to do a downpayment clearing. I tried to clear the downpayment with the invoice, while simulating before posting, the withholding tax line was simulated. After posting it, i found that the Withholding tax base amount has been taken as 0 and the tax amount has been calculated. Any reason how this could have happened?
Thanks,
Leena

Hi Leena,
Check the field WT_MASMAN in Table With_Item.
The fields mentions whether the base amount has been entered manually.
Normally, during posting, even if you put your cursor in the Tax base field, the System considers it as entered manually (even though you have not enetered anything).

Downpayment Clearing - Vendor

Hi
I am stuck with an error at the time of downpayment clearing made to an asset in Transaction F-54.
When I execute F-54 for clearing a downpayment, I am seeing the downpayment line item existing. But when I select that item and simulate it for posting, the system is issuing a message like this:
Not possible to post down payment clearing. There are no down payments.
Message no. AA571
The above downpayment was done for a Capital Asset WIP and the asset was capitalized. The downpayment entry was like this:
Cr. Bank a/c
Dr. Vendor a/c
Dr. Asset Account
Cr. CWIP-downpayment clearing
Please help.

Hi,
In F-54 you can clear a particular down payment entry against one invoice document, which is posted prior to this transaction.
In the intial screen of F-54, you need to enter the relavant invoice document number and FY, then after pressing enter key...
In the next screen you will see the invoice document line item will be displayed and one check box will be in the begining of the line.
Select that check box and in the last there is one input field, there click on that field...then the amount will be adjusted now.
Now simulate it and post it.
This is the process of clearing through F-54, hope you are fully aware of the same.
Please re confirm them.
Thanks,
Srinu

F-54 DownPayment Clearing Error

Hi Friends
I was trying to define the process of Downpayment for vendors.
I started with creation of PO
Then I created Down Payment Request
Then I Posted a Down Payment using F110.
Then I posted goods Issue and posted an invoice using MIRO.
Then I accessed F-54 and gave the invoice number and clicled on "process Downpayment"
I get this error "No DownPayments Exist" (message no F5005)
This process works perfectly if I used a FB60 invoice.
But its failing for a MIRO invoice.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

RAM,
Hello. YES!! We are experiencing the exact same issue in our PRD system. We are on ECC 6.0 and everything for F-54 downpayment clearing against an LIV (MIRO) invoice was fine.
Yesterday, however, we applied the Enhancement Pack 4 and our finance invoice processors are now encountering the same message you got: F5005 - 'No downpayments exist'. What system are you on? Enhancement packs applied?
I believe there is a new feature available in EHp 4 where you can activate functionality to automatically clear down payments from within MIRO itself (thereby bypassing the need to use F-54). BUT, as I understand it, all these new 'features' available in the enhancement packs have to be first purposefully 'switched on'. I was thinking that the message "no downpayments exist" makes sense IF one had activated this new feature. But we have not.
Anyone out there solved this? I spent several hours yesterday looking at OSS notes without success.
Thanks,
Suzanne

Donot want to use Downpayment clearing while MIR7

While doing MIR7 system generates entry regarding downpayment clearing to the extent of invoice being made.How can I stop system from doing this that when i want system should do it otherwise should not do it.
presently system is throwing this entry
31          150290             DELHI BITUMEN SALES     82,879.90-
86          16000000     GR/IR Clearing A/c                     82,879.90

27          150290             DELHI BITUMEN SALES     82,879.90
bold entries are exta entries.
I know why they are coming I want this fucntionality to use at will.
is it possible

Hi:
    If yuo could view this entry in GL view then you will know the reason why are they showing up..Down payments involve special GL accounts as defined in OBYR against your vendor recon account. In your case you are making down payment with E indicator as is shown by E in third line item, hence upon simulation it will appear in order to update the special GL account and subsidiary ledgers. It is not an extra entry .. Whenever you will make down payments with reference to PO this will appear..This is for your information.

Downpayment clearing not appearing at MIRO

Dear All,
After activating LOG_MMFI_P2P business function and doing advance payment through me2dp anf fpdp_create , downpayment clearing button is not apeearing at the time of MIRO.
Suggestion is helpfull.

Hi Rajendra,
Are you using a Service PO.
Downpayment functionality is not available for srevice PO.
Below is the technical reason behind it.
==================
First let us not fully compare the working of a material PO with a
service PO, and that too in this specific scenario where we have the
Srv. based IV indicator set(EKPO-LEBRE), as both of them accomplish
different business requirements and the MM-SRV design has been very
carefully integrated into the MM-PUR core, so that the usability of
procuring materials or services looks seamless.
Since we can only provide a PO reference while doing downpayments and
not service line level information like PACKNO and INTROW, the
downpayments are posted for the account assignment of the PO and not
with respect to each service line.
Seeing the design we confirmed that this new EhP4 functionality of
executing downpayment clearing from MIRO, is actually not available
for this scenario due to their technical limitations. During MIRO, the
design to read the PO data is based on each service line's information,
and since for a particular service line we wont be able to fetch the
downpayments done against it, we cannot pass on the data to MM Invoice
Verification, and only if they receive a downpayment value at their
side, they will be able to show the "Down payment clearing" button in
MIRO.
So could you please make use of transaction like FB05 and F-54 to clear
the downpayments.
==============

Lalita

Downpayment Clearing in Logistic Invoice verification

Hi All,
we have activated Business Function " LOG_MMFI_P2P " and
Switch "MM_SFWS_CI_01 - Enhanced Functions in EhP4 for Applications in
Materials Management" using Tcode SFW1. And followed all instructions
documented when activated Business Function " LOG_MMFI_P2P ". The
Busines function is activated to order to clear downpayments at the
time of invoice posting in MIRO or MIR7. When I post the invoice in
MIRO system is posting 2 indepedent document as below.
1. Invoice posting,
Dr GR/IR
Cr Vendor
2. Downpayment Recovery
Dr Vendor
Cr Vendor with SP GL Indicator "C"
My point is, as per the link
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/48/b42c22e8603095e10000000a421937/frameset.htm, it says "You can use the Down Payment Clearing
function to clear down payments that you have posted with reference to
a purchase order without going to the relevant financial accounting
transactions, directly in logistics invoice verification."
But, in my case, the system is not clearing the downpayment but instead
is just posting a Credit memo account entry with SP GL indicator (refer
to th Downpayment Entry).
Please advice if SAP is designed to clear the downpayment in LIV or
just to post the downpayment recovery entry.
If advice on any corrections to be applied.
Best regards
Abishay Solomon

Hi
I am not sure, but as per your link
"The system displays the Down Payment Clearing pushbutton at header level"

F-39 Customer downpayment clearing

Hi,
Can any one tell me how to process the TDS on advances from the customer. Following this the scenario and process that followed.
1. Customer Advance 50% on which TDS say 2% is deducted. I Processed this through F-29 and created a customer downpayment. With holding tax type for payment posting (say P1) used Entry is -
Bank A/c Dr       9800
TDS A/c Dr          200
Customer A/c Cr (Spl GL) 10000
Correctly posted as excepted. Business place / section code maintained.
2. FB70 - Revenue entry made with same Withholding tax type P1.Business place maintained
    Invoice value Rs 20000.
3. F-39 Used the invoice reference from 2 above and select the advance payment made from 1 above. Business place maintained.
Entry passed for full value
Customer A/c Dr (spl GL)       10000
to Customer A/c cr (normal GL)     10000.
4. F-28 customer makes remaining payment. When entered in the Bank line item Rs.9800 reducing the TDS and tried to clear the Invoice, Downpayment transfered in the Withholding tax tab.
I am not able process this because of the difference of TDS no appearing against the downpayment lineitem. The difference is equal to TDS on advance paid.
In a normal payment process thro F-28 i am able clearing the invoice line item making an entry for TDS.
Can anyone let me know
1. Process follow is correct?
2. How to make the TDS appear so that the balance payment can be cleared?
3. Please let me know the full process (step/Tcode)
Regards
Seshadri V

Hi,
Normal process is like below:
1) When the down payment made the TDS willbe deducted say like 2% on down payment of 10000=200
2) When you make final invoice say like for 20000, again the TDS will be deducted on the total amount 2% on 20000= 400
3) When you clear the down paymen the TDS deducted on the down payment will be reversed. This is because of you selected the Central invoice prop. check box in the With holding tax types for payment.
4) Finally the TDS account contains the amount of 400 which is the correct amount.
But the above process is having its own limitations. You kindly follow as below:
1) Do not select Central invoice prop. in the With holding tax type for payment settings.
2) Do not give the with holding tax CODES in the Customer or Vendor masters. Give all the With holding tax TYPES.
3) Let the user select the concerned tax codes while posting the down payment.
4) While posting the invoice ask the user to give the with holding base amount manually which is the difference between the down payment and the final invoice. So the TDS amount will be correctly deducted. There will not be any reversal of TDS required at the time of clearing the down payment.
Hope it is clear to you. If you require any further clarifications, revert back to me.

Correspondence type for incoming downpayment clearing

Hi gurus,
I have to customize a form to be issued when clearing one vendor's downpayment with its invoce under tx. F-44 - Clear, that will inform the vendor that the downpayment has been cleared and which tax amount has also been cancelled with the one in the invoice.
I enter the tx., activate the entries to be cleared, I select Enviroment > Correspondence, and afterwards I post the document with no differences. I now I go to F.62 tx. but do not really know what correspondence type select, neither which standard sapscript form should be associated and to which report.
Thanks in advance. Any help will be rewarded!

Milestone Billing with DownPayment Clearing

Hi folks,
I have a problem that the Downpayment made by the customer and posted through transaction F-29 is not being shown as the second line item (below the actual billing item). Actually as per the SAP documentation "those payments already made are taken into the billing document as items to be cleared. They are set as items, after the billing items to which they refer, in the billing document"....However in my case , this is not happening. The other alternative is clearing the downpayment against the billing item through FI using F-39, which though works fine, is still a round-about way, hence can somebody help me with my problem. I'm sure somebody from you experts may have come across this problem. Pls note that all the settings in SD and FI as explained in the documentation ahve been done and are working fine, except the above feature.

This problem "was because in the Accounting settings of "Reconciliation accounts (A/R, A/P)" [OB14], the sales order field was suppressed. After unhiding this field, it started working fine as this is the field whch forms the link between the Downpayment recieved in the Accounting to be affected as a subsequent line item in the Billing Document.

TDS Reversal in Downpayment Clearing

Hi Experts,
During vendor down-payment using F-48, TDS had been deducted. When down-payment clearing is done using F-54, the user wants the TDS booked in the down-payment to be reversed. Is there any setting to be done for it?
Regards,
Vignesh

Dear paresh
first you run f-48 (cal.TDS)
Use F-43 or FB60 select relevant WHT type. (here you can cal. TDS on Invoice ) then only your TDS will be reverse
after that you transfer to normal F-54 just how much amount you paid in advance that amount only transfer.
check whether you proper assign WHT type and code
Hope its helpful
Regards
shankar
