DRQ: down payments & sales analysis per sales employee

Our client sells projects which last from 2 to 8 weeks. A down payment invoice is issued before the start of the project and the remaining amount is invoiced upon completion. Sometimes due to the fast pace of the project and the payment terms, the down payment invoice payment has not been received before issuing the final invoice. In SAP Business One this results in a problem as only paid down payment invoices can be drawn from the final invoice (this is by system definition). To make matters worse the only workaround seems to be (correct me if I am wrong) to amend this with manual journal entries. However, sales employee field cannot be activated in a manual journal entry. Hence, the sales analysis report per sales employee does not reflect true sales figures. Our suggestion is to develop the down payment functionality so that it can detect issued down payment invoices when putting the final invoice into the system, to make the whole process run smoothly.

Hi Ajo,
the comming version 8.8 includes the functionality which in the following scenario:
1) Create Sales Order
2) Create DP Invoice based on Sales Order from point 1
3) Record payment of the DP Invoice
4) Create Final Invoice based on Sales order from point 1
proposing ther DP Invoices created based on the Sales Order from point 1 for the Final Invoice (when the Final Invoice is created).
User can check and adjust (if necessary) the DP Invoices automatically linked to the Final Invoice.
Hopefully this would help in your customer business process.

Down payments u2013 Credit Management, Sales Value FD32.

Hi,
We have a problem with the credit management in Down payments. The down payments requests are not decreasing the Sales Value of the client. I mean when I bill a down payment, the sales value of the client in transaction FD32 keep with the same value. I have to bill the next milestone where the down payment is cleared to decrease the sales value of the client.
Billing Plan
1º Down payment 200
2º Final Billing 1000
Bill the down payment. Sales Value FD32 = 1000. It should be 800?
Bill the Final Invoice. Sales Value FD32 = 0.
Are there any way in the customizing to modify this behavior?
Thank you in advance and best regards.

Hello Alberto,
As you mentioned down payment of 200 and final bill of 1000, generally down payment is received at the start of activity. If you have credit limit say 500 and you receive down payment of 200 then system store down payment in separate GL account and when you carry out business, system first consider consuming down payment and then credit limit. So down payment never consider as sales till it get cleared off as it is before start of business as extra security to manage risk
Same thing happen when you do business with letter of credit
Hope this will resolve your confusion

Mukul

Customer Down Payment w.r.t sales order only

Q1- We are posting Customer Down payment w.r.t Sales order number with line item number. How come we enter sales order number only without line item number at the time of down payment.
Q2- After the down payment posting F-29 , how its possible to change the line item of sales order number?

Hi,
For this down payment invoice,we are using billing plan at the sales document item level.
Goto the T.Code "VA02".Enter the sales order number.Enter.
Goto Item details.Goto billing plan tab.Remove the billing block for the down payment item.And maintain the billing block for other items.
Goto the T.Code "VF01" and enter the sales order number.It will take that down payment item.
Save.
Next step is to make payment.It can be done either by using the T.Code "F-28" by selecting the "Special G/L indicator" as "F" or by using the T.Code "F-29" too.
After creating the down payment,we can change item quantity and price too.But you cannot change the down payment item in billing plan.
Regards,
Krishna.

Creation of A/R Down Payment Invoice based on Sales Order not logical

When creating a A/R Down Payment Invoice based on a Sales Order you
have the option to create multible ones. Which by itself could be
usefull to create one of 50 % for a certain day and decide they need to
pay another 25 % at a later date.
But SBO does not track what already have been posted. Therefore you can
create a sum more then a 100% without warning or blockage.
Tested this in SBO 2007 A SP:00 PL:00
Scenario:
Sales - AR>Sales Order
Create and post a Sales Order
Sales - AR>A/R Down Payment Invoice
Create an A/R Down Payment
Select the BP and copy the Sales Order
Set DPM to 40%
Post the A/R Down Payment
Sales - AR>A/R Down Payment Invoice
Create an A/R Down Payment
Select the BP and copy the Sales Order
Set DPM to 100%
Post the A/R Down Payment
Sales - AR>A/R Down Payment Invoice
Create an A/R Down Payment
Select the BP and copy the Sales Order
Set DPM to 70%
Post the A/R Down Payment
Making the total for the Sales Order 210% worth of Down Payment
Invoices without warning/blocking. I would expected that you would only
be able to set the rest sum %. For instance first scenario I entered
60% therefore setting the second Down Payment Invoice to a max of 40%
Untill you have used up the 100% and you cannot select the Sales Order
in question..
If multible users do the same work, SBO doesn't show that it has
already been done. Same if you forgot you already created it you can
still create one. Plus sometimes it will happenyou create the Down
Payment Invoice and not paying attention you create the first one with
a 100% and later with the intended percentage..

Hello Petronella,
you are right that B1 is not checking the total value of DP created from the Sales Order.
The logic and checking procedure here is only between Sales Order -> Delivery/Invoice.
DP Invoice is considered as transaction related to document the receipt of the money (parallel to the sales process). Between the moment of basing of DP to Sales Order it is still possibility to adjust Sales Order as there is no posting behind Sales Order.
The question is what would be a checking procedure in case that on Sales Order there is based Delivery and DP? What would be the system priority to take into a consideration?

Sales Analysis PER DAY SALE

Hello Experts,
In Sales Analysis Report, I want to see the Per Day Sales and the Quantity. I checked it through Item wise, but actually in this Tab (Item), in Quantity Column system only shows open Quantity.
If a DO has been invoiced that Quantity will become Zero.
How do I see the Total sales quantity WISE ?
Thanks & Regards

There are two XL Reporter Reports called "Sales Register" and "Daily Stock Account".
These are under Indian Legal Reports and made specially for Indian Localization Format.
I think these reports can solve your requirement.

Showing Monthly Sales Analysis for Sales Employees (including credit notes)

Hi Experts,
I want to show a report for my director so we can accurately decide upon sales targets for each sales employee for 2012.
The Monthly Report > Invoices by posting date in the Sales Analysis module is not ideal because it does not appear to include credit notes so the totals are incorrect.
How could I create a query which gave me a total for each month of 2011 for every sales employee which includes invoice minus credit notes.
Unfortunately my SQL is not great but I started something which might help - this is only for first 2 months of the year. I presume I would need a select statement for each month if I wanted to have the sales employee name followed by a total for each month. Maybe this is too intensive a query to run anyway.
SELECT T1.[SlpName],
(select(sum(t2.doctotal)-(t3.doctotal)) where (Month(t2.docdate)=1 and t3.docdate=1) FROM OCRD T0 INNER JOIN OSLP T1 ON T0.SlpCode = T1.SlpCode INNER JOIN OINV T2 ON T0.CardCode = T2.CardCode INNER JOIN ORIN T3 ON T0.CardCode = T3.CardCode)
(select(sum(t2.doctotal)-(t3.doctotal)) where (Month(t2.docdate)=2 and t3.docdate=1) FROM OCRD T0 INNER JOIN OSLP T1 ON T0.SlpCode = T1.SlpCode INNER JOIN OINV T2 ON T0.CardCode = T2.CardCode INNER JOIN ORIN T3 ON T0.CardCode = T3.CardCode)

Sales Analysis Widget - Sales Quota graph data origin

Regarding the Sales Analysis Widget in the Sales Cockpit new feature with SAP 8.81
In the Fiscal Year Analysis graph I can see sales amounts this year/ last year but the yellow 'Quota' line is always 0 .
Please can someone advise where the Quota amount figure should be drawn from?
Thanks
Karen

Hi,
Regarding the 'Quota' amount in the sales analysis , can you please check the Demo by entering the Budget amount for the sales account in the Budget and then check whether the 'Quota' is populated with a value or zero.
Please check and let us know.

Table to retrieve sales orders per sales area and BP name

hi,
I am looking for tables or reports where I can retrieve business transactions base on per sales area and / or BP's ex. name of the BP's.
the crmd_order_index contains BP number but it contains both header and items of the orders, is it possible to find the total amount of header grouped by BP in SAP Query ?
Thank you.
Benj.
Moderated: Please use the search before posting.
Message was edited by: Andrei Vishnevsky

Hi Jerome,
I think you can use the table CRMD_ORDER_INDEX. Just that records that have same header and item guid are related to header and the ones that have different item guid and header guid are related to item.
Or am I missing something?

Trying to create a query that shows Sales Order/Invoice Totals as well as Paid/Outstanding/Available Down Payments

Currently working on SAP B1 v8.82
I'm looking to generate a query that will give an overall report for a given customer that shows Sales Order No, Invoice No, Sales Order Total, Invoice Total, Amount Paid on Invoice, Amount Remaining on Invoice, Down Payments Available, Open on Sales Order.
I'm not sure what the best way to select the columns in bold above. Invoice Total should be self-explanatory. Amount Paid should be any down payments or applied payments on the invoice. The balance due on the invoice (which seems to be T0.DocTotal if I'm not mistaken) should = 'Invoice Total' - 'Amount Paid on Invoice'. In the Down Payments Available column I want the total amount of money on the account or on down payments that aren't tied to a Sales Order. If a client overpaid in the past for instance and there's a credit on their account, then it should contribute to this sum. Open on Sales Order should be pretty easy. I guess it's just the sum of everything that is still open on the Sales Order. I'm just not sure what the best way to sum all the un-delivered freight, tax, and line items is. Here's what my query looks like so far.
SELECT DISTINCT T4.[DocNum] [Sales Order No],
T0.DocNum [Invoice No],
T4.DocTotal [Sales Order Total]
T0.DocTotal [Amount Outstanding],
FROM OINV T0
INNER JOIN INV1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry
INNER JOIN DLN1 T2 ON T1.BaseEntry = T2.DocEntry AND T1.BaseLine = T2.LineNum
INNER JOIN RDR1 T3 ON T2.BaseEntry = T3.DocEntry AND T2.BaseLine = T3.LineNum
INNER JOIN ORDR T4 ON T3.DocEntry = T4.DocEntry
INNER JOIN OSLP T5 ON T4.SlpCode = T5.SlpCode
WHERE T0.CardName Like '%%[%0]%%'
GROUP BY T4.DocNum, T0.DocNum, T0.DocTotal, T4.DocTotal
I tried doing a little searching around for queries similar to what I need, but I could find exactly what I was looking for and I'm very unfamiliar with OJDT, JDT1, and ITR1 tables which I think might be important to finding unapplied payments...

Thanks. There's a few problems though.
1) It seems that OINV DocTotal != Balance Due. I'm seeing a number of invoices where there was a balance due, but we applied additional money (either we took another incoming payment and applied it or applied money from the account balance, etc.) and yet it still shows a total.
2) It's pulling incoming payments from different customers. I think this is because the table was joined based on "RCT2 T4 on T4.[DocEntry] = T3.[DocNum] and T4.[InvoiceId] = T2.[LineNum]" In one example I have 2 incoming payments 446 and 614. Both have the DocEntry 542, but one relates to A/R Invoice 542 (for a different client) while the other relates to Down Payment Invoice 542. *I was able to fix this by adding WHERE T5.CardCode = [%0]*
3) I'm going to work with this a little bit and see if I can alter it to make it work for me. Basically this query falls a little short on the following:
- Doesn't include incoming payments that aren't linked to a down payment invoice.
- Does not give the Invoice Total (I'd like to know how much of the SO was invoiced. DocTotal seems to give me Amount Invoiced - Down Payments. I'm not sure the best way to get this number. Maybe I could do the sum of each line * tax + freight)
- Does not give the outstanding amount on an invoice. The ARtotal [DocTotal] column gives me how much was owed when the invoice was created, but it doesn't tell me what is currently owed.
- Lastly it may complicate the query too much and could be left off, but it would be nice to see if they have any money from credits or incoming payments that has not been applied. Perhaps this would be easily accomplished by simply pulling in their account balance.

Down Payment Process - Make Payment on Sales Order

Hi experts
We are looking at implementing the down payment process.
We should be able to record a down payment whilst creating the sales order. However, whilst in the Sales Order, the Payment Means icon is not available (greyed out). I have checked the document settings for Sales Orders etc but cannot find a way to make the Payment Means available to be used.
Any ideas?
Any help appreciated.
Regards
Lorna

Hi Lorna,
the functionality to create a payment from the sales order is not available in all localisations.
To implement the DP process, you can work with either DP Request or DP invoice, depending on when you want to be tax liable. Please have a look at the documentation in the DRC.
All the best,
Kerstin
