Downpayment problem

Hi all,
I have a problem with down payments or rather with the process of downpayment. Here is the process and the problems I encounter.
STEP 1:
I post the down payment request, that is OK.
STEP 2:
In the automatic payment program I guess my request is paid, to simulate that I make a manual outgoing payment fot the Vendor and apart from downpayment request being closed I have a DEBIT on vendor and CREDIT on the bank (or rather bank clearing acc., also vendor is posted on the alternative reconciliation defined for downpayments)
STEP 3:
Now I want to post a receipt or invoice from the vendor, BUT! not an invoice for services but an invoice for downpayment....I thought this is posted with the F-48 transaction (Downpayment) but if I use this transaction then I have to either avoid paying this downpayment I made since this transaction posts payment on the bank account. In this case I wonder how is the payment of the downpaymet request made automatically? In case I did pay the downpayment request before this step then I will just have another posting in the bank account and vendor account for the same ammount?!?!?
I'll try to make a posting example:
Downpayment request:
VENDOR - CREDIT 550 (NOTED)
Paying the downpayment request:
VENDOR - DEBIT 550
BANK CLEARING - CREDIT 550
Posting the downpayment:
VENDOR - DEBIT 550
BANK CLEARING - CREDIT 550
TAX CLEARING - CREDIT 50
TAX - DEBIT 50
Here you see I double the posting on VENDOR and BANK CLEARING accounts..
How do I post then the downpayment receipt.....since this is a need because the invoice for the goods/services that the downpayment is for are not going to be done for some time and only upon completion the real invoice will be issued.
Thanks for the help

Hi,
It seems to me, you are making an awful lots of postings for a simple process.
You also need to be careful in terms of duplication of data, so I am guessing you are using 3 or 4 different document types to indicate what document does what.
Lastly if you do need to have this process, all you need is a final posting to credit the Vendor again, with VAT.
If useful please assign points.

Problems Printing AR Downpayment Invoice + Payment

Hi Experts,
I have searched high and low in the forum but I have not been able to find a solution to my problem.
Currently, what I have done is that I have created a print layout with Crystal Report for my AR Downpayment Invoice and have set this to the default layout.
I have also created a print layout with Crystal Report for Incoming Payment and have also set this to be the default layout.
Now, when I click on the print button, I am presented with 3 options:-
Invoice Only
Invoice and Payment In Succession
A/R Invoice + Payment
Now, when I select A/R Invoice + Payment, and click OK, the system only prints the invoice and does not print the payment document.
However, if I set the A/R Downpayment with a PLD print out as default, the prints both the Invoice and the Payment document which I have defaulted in the Incoming Payment document.
Am I doing something wrong here or does SAP not support the print out of 2 Crystal Report layouts?
Regards,
Alvin

Hi Rahul,
I went to printing sequence to check. From Invoice + Payment, the sequence does not allow me to select print layouts from anything other than AR Invoices, Deliveries, Sales Orders and Sales Quotations. Hence, there is still no way I can access my payment print layout which is in the Incoming Payment module.
Printing the document directly from Incoming Payment screen is not an option as my client needs to forbid the access to the incoming payment screen for this particular group of users.

Alvin

Ashis

Hi Ashish,
First of all, please understand that this is a voluntary forum, and no one is obliged to give you a reply though the problem is important or urgent for you.
Can you tell which error message prevents you from creating the delivery? That is the most important information that is missing! Do remember to give the full error message number (e.g. VL 123) and message text.

Problem In Viewing Downpayment Milestone from PS in SD Order

Hi All,
I have an issue here. I am currently configuring a milestone billing order with the downpayment scenario. During the sales order creation, the sales order should pull out the milestones created in Project Systems, but I don't seemed to be able to pull out the downpayment. My colleague said he has configured it as percentage value but I can't see the value and so system has left it blank and detected it as amount and the billing relevance is downpayment in milestone billing on a value basis instead of percentage basis.
Kindly advise.
Thank you!

hi,
as per my knowledge goes i heard about % wise completion of work. if it is there then it will be like mile stone that they have to release certian amount against those mile stones.
but here you are saying about amount wise completion of work. what is the scale of completion of work.
please for give me if i am wrong.

SAP DBM 6 Downpayment Functionality Issues or Problems

Dear All,
Requesting all to share any problem/issue faced in Down Payment Functionlity provided by SAP in DBM 6.0 with cash desk or any.
If possible please share solutions for same.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Manan Patel

As per my knowledge there isn't any standard integration for DBM cash desk direclty with credit / debit card machine, however you can build a custom interface.
The standard credit card functionality can be used here by implementing the BADI "/DBM/BADI_TILL"
One of my previous experience we added an additional push button on the cash desk screen to do similar kind of requirement & intern call the BADI "/DBM/BADI_TILL"
You will have to define various payment types "Credit card", "Debit card", Cash etc..

Problem in posting the downpayment using the idoc ACC_document03

hi all,
I am assigned with an object where a flat file comes frm a third party tool that need to be posted in to sap system.
there is a standard Idoc ACC_document03 to do the job, but here in this std Idoc some of the fields are missing, using the BTE OPEN_FI_PERFORM_RWBAPI01_P that is present in the Bapi BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST in Extension1 called by the Idoc.
By populating the needed down payment data in the IDOC segment E1BPACEXTC "Container for 'Customer Exit' Parameter", down payment requests can be managed as in transaction F-47.
In the segment, Field1 must contain the item number. Field2 must contain the name of the field. Field3 must contain the value of the field. how to populate the fields using the bte. pretty new to these advanced concepts.
if possible can u give me coding as well.
got stuck up here please do the need ful
thanks in advance,
ram.

Hi ram,
E1BPACEXTC ---it is a table with four string fields,
pass the fields in char format to that BTE from IDOC.
loop that EXTENSION in the BTE.

A/P Credit memo cannot copy from A/P Downpayment Invoice

Hello Everyone!
I have encounter problem in A / P credit memo. If I clicked on the Copy from A/P Down payment the list of invoices do not appear.
List seems to be empty. I've checked on the A/P down payment and the account is still open and the is an existing downpayment.
Thanks!

Hi Nelle_13,
if the DPI is not shown in the matrix when you select AP Down Payment from the 'Copy From' menu in the credit memo, then that DPI has been paid or credited already. Only open DPIs can be used as base document for a credit memo.
To check, you should open the DPI, rightclick & select 'Applied/Reconciled Transactions'. That will show you the documents this DPI is reconciled with & guide you to the payment/credit note standing on it. If it's a payment, you can cancel the payment & thus re-open the DPI. It can then be used as base for a credit memo. You'll need to check with the accountant what to do with the payment.
All the best,
Kerstin

Posting Vendor Downpayment requests with input tax

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to configure the down payment request for Vendor Payments, I want these down payment request to be posted so I un flagged the Noted Items check box and flagged the check box Commitments warnings check box and also I entered the Account determination key for Input tax clearing. Alternative GL account is defined to allow the Input Tax.
Now the problem is, when I try to post the Down payment request document with input tax I get an error message stating that "Down pmnts with taxes are not permitted when processing with jur.code". Actually the input tax is being assigned automatically even if I dont use a tax code.
So, can any one help me to understand what am I missing in my configuration or is it some thing which cannot be processed using F-47.
Oh by the way I am using the Special GL indication F (down payment request).
Thanks
Shilpa

Nicole,
Which country is this requirement for? As far as I know, there is no tax incidence on downpayment. Input tax arises only when you receive the invoice, right? Not when you receive a downpayment.

AR Downpayment Request To Be Linked With The Corresponding AR Invoice

Dear All,
I created a sales order of amount 100000. Based On this Sales Order I created AR Downpayment Request of 100% amount i.e 100000. Now I Opened the Incoming Payments Screen , selected the AR Downpayment Request and received the payment of 100000 against It. Later On I created the AR Invoice Based On the Sales Order.
Now My Problem is I can not reconcile the Payment Received against DP request with the AR Invoice. Is this any missing functionality or What|? When I goto into Internal BP Reconciliation , select the customer, then select the Payment received against the DP Request and the Invoice and add, It gives a messege of ''"Payment Transaction Applied to Downpayment request can not be reconciled here"
Kindly Help,
Amol Mangalkar

Hi Amol,
I recommend you to create Journal Entry for reconcile after input AR Invoice.
For example;
1) Input AR Downpayment Request
no Journel Entry
2) Input Incoming payment
Cash $100 / Advance AR $100
3) Input AR Invoice
AR $100 / Sales Revenue $100
4) Input Journal Entry <== you need it
Advance AR $100 / AR $100
5) Reconciliation
for each Advance AR account, AR account
I hope above sample helps you...
Thanks,
Kaori

Control downpayment against Purchase order

Hi all,
After so long time i came to forum.
Prevoiusly i did not respond proper way to the forum friens.
For this i am extremly sorry...
Now i am getting a problem on downpayment.
Actulayy My PO Value RS 150000
Against PO my down payment should not exseeds the PO amount.
In this case how can i controal my down payment.
Please give me some sugation on this issue.
Regards,
Bramha

Dear dudekula,
Frist make sure that purchase order is mandatory for making down payment. You can set this via screen layout or feild varient.
You can make sure that is compulsory via
Financial Accounting (New)->Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable->Business Transactions->Make and Check Document Settings-->Define Field Status Variants.
system by defualt gives a massge for exceeding the down payment than PO value.
You have to convert that information massage in error massage via T-Code.OBA5
Now system will stop agianst exceeding PO value for down payment.

Parag

Sales Orders And Downpayment Invoices

Hi,
I am trying to get a link between the Sales Order and the Downpayment Invoices.
As I open a Sales Order I cannot directly figure out weather it has a down payment
invoice or not. (DP Invoices will not show on Target Document Button on the tool bar)
Is there a way to Find it out??
When I am going through the ORDR Table I have noticed DpmDrawn, DpmPrcnt, DpmAmnt, DpmAmntFC, DpmAmntSC, Columns.
DpmDrawn Shows Values 'Y' or 'N' but rest of the fields are just showing default values (null or 0.00) for every Sales order.
Is there any setting I have to set up to fill those fields?
or is there a better way to check that Sales Order has a Downpayment Invoice??
Thank you very much for your help.

Hi Suda,
Thanks for the quick answer. True, that is the way I use to find the DP invoices.
Problem is no one check it before they generate a new DP invoice for the Sales Order.
We end up creating few DP invoices for the same Sales order.
I just want to stop that. Thats why i am trying find out a link between sales order and the
DP invoice and show it with the Sales order or give a rule.
Thank you very much for the help.
Kind Regards
Sanjaya
