Freight on Down Payment Docs

Hi All,
There is a client requirement to pay 100% adavance along with freight charges applicable against a PO .We can enter the freight details in the PO but the same is not available in A/P invoice.
How do we handle this scenario ?
Thanks,
Asap

Hi Asap,
definite freight costs are generally only known when the item has been delivered & the invoice from the carrier has been received. Downpayments are by nature pay advances towards a future delivery to be followed by a future complete invoice that then takes the downpayment into consideration.
Should full payment be made in advance of the delivery, please use, as Peter says above, the reserve invoice functionality which includes freight.
If you have an estimation for the freight costs & you wish to reflect this in the downpayment invoice for less than 100% of the full invoice, you could use a non-stock item with appropriate GL account determination on row level.
All the best,
Kerstin

Freight in Down Payment Invoice

Dear All,
In Sales Order I have added freight in the document and now for this sales order a down payment invoice is been booked and in down payment i am using the option copy from - Sales order and in Document Draw Wizard I am clicking the option Draw All Data ( Including Freight & Witholding Tax ) but in Dow Payment Invoice the freight amount is not coming. Is it possible to bring freight in down payment or this option cannot be done in down payment invoice.
I am using SAP Business One 2005B with patch level 39.
An early response from your end would be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Kawish Junaid Mazhari

Dear Ivy,
Thanks for the response. But as frieght charges cannot be copied to down payment invoice then what can be done if in a particular sales order, the Sales order value is less than the down payment. It happens sometimes that the customer gives on account payment and sales order is made after recieving the down payment. But in SAP Business One it seems that a down payment cannot be done more than the sales order value
Does anyone has a solution for the above situation.
Thanks and Regards,

Please check above process and let me know if any details are needed for further.
Thanks,

HI Venkat,
Sorry Venkat. It is the clarance in F-54 not the Revesal.
After clearance, the amount 29.000,00 is posted to Vendor Spl GL. So nullified this account.
Once cleared, the amount is posted to Normal Vendor ac as 34.510,00 (Doc 1700000043)
So this doc is not picked in Payment Run.
Invoice amount is 49.623,00-. So the difference 15113 (49.623,00-34.510,00) should be cleared in Payment run. It is not done.
My assumption is there is the amount difference between Normal Vendor to Speial Vendor (34,510 - 29000). Is it the cause to not picked the doc 1700000043 in payment run.
Please advise what I can do?
Thanks
Venkat

Vendor down payment with input tax

Dear Expert
My client receieves down payment with input tax, to meet their legal requirement for VAT filing, they have to book entries as below;
When receieving down payment with input tax:
Dr. Down payment
Input tax
Cr. Bank
When receiveing vendor invoice for remaining AP amount:
Dr. Expense
Input tax
Cr. AP (remaining amount)
Then clear down payment by expense
Dr. Expense
Cr. Down payment
They do in this way, because input tax in down payment and input tax in remaining AP invoice should be listed as two items in their VAT report. And intput tax in down payment document is with reference field which is different from reference field in remaining AP invoice, and reference field is also one mandatory field in VAT report.
In this case, I can not use SAP standard T-code F-54 to clear down payment. But when I tried to create a manual JV to post entry with Dr. Expense and Cr. Down payment, it's OK, but then when I used F-44 to manully clear down payment doc by manual JV, I got problem because the amount in down payment is down payment amount + input tax amount, but the amount in manual JV is only down payment.
Does someone have a solution?
Thanks,
Nicole

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.

Vendor Down Payment Clearing F-54

Hi,
I am clearing Vendor Down Payment using BDC for T-code F-54. I have Invoice no and Down Payment Document No, which needs to be clear against that Invoice.
But, how to determine the position of that DP Document number in the next screen when i am using BDC? T-Code F-54 selects Down Payment Docs from table BSIK. So, in which sequence DP Document will be displayed in table control in the next screen? (e.g. {based on document no, Posting date} =>(ASC/DSC)).
e.g: Invoice no: 7100000001 DP document: 5240000004
after entering Header data on F-54 you will get below data,
DP Document:
1.       5240000001
2.       5240000004
3.       6600000003
4.       6600000004
So, how to determine my DP Document is @Position no: 2.??
Thanks in advance.

Nilesh,
BDC is unable to select document in sort postition. This is a manual input and SHDB recording can't choose DP documents like that.
I would recommend you clear downpayment by F-51 or change document FB03 for invoice reference field. It's same effect of F-54 however depends field status of of your installation screen.
Best Regards

WBS field not appearing in the down payment document posted via FBA7/F-48

i have created several down payment docs wrt PO, acct assignment WBS, but none seems to populate the WBSE field in the payment document, when using FBA7/F-48. All the down payment documents appear in the PO (Purchase order history) but only those which have been paid through F110 populates WBSE and the ones paid through FBA7 does not populate WBSE field. We are clear that the down payment documents are posted rightly w.r.t PO but its just that they dont get linked to the WBSE when FBA7 is used and gets linked when F110 is used. Please suggest if am missing any config setting. i already raised this in PS Forum but it now seems more of FI.
/thread/1791429 [original link is broken]

Hi,
please check whether the feild status of your document types KZ, KA and KG are having the status for WBS Elements as optional or hidded

Down payment clarity

Dear All,
I am using Down payment request for my MTO scenario.
I have done configuration with help of best practice. But I don't have clarity on the transactions.
Whate I know I will explain please correct me if I am wrong.
Creat order with billing plan. In order use condition type AZWR. Give price 100000 for AZWR. In billing plan brake up is 25% (25000) down payment (advance Billing doc.FAZ) 75% settlement (Billing doc.F2).
With reference to this order create billing doc for down payment (doc.FAZ), then after material delivered create final settlement billing doc (F2).
Reward will be assured.

Srikanthraj

Hi,
In down payment scenerio, client will request for downpayment(in your case 25%) to the customer.Billing doc type faz
As per agreement between client and customer customer will pay downpayment to start the work, say in your case manufacturing.
That means before start of the work client will receive money in advance, this amount will be adjusted either partly or fully, if manufacturing involves diff stages
If Manufacturing involves ex. moulding, assembling , testing etc
For each state client will have an agreement how much customer has to pay
say
moulding --40%
assemling--20%
testing and settlement-20%
of total agreed cost of component
Based on agreement again we will adjust the down payment amount in each stage.Say you can adjust total downpayment 25% received in moulding stage it self or part., this can be done by going condition tab in billing

A/R Invoice with freight Linked to A/R Down Payment invoice

Hi All,
scenario:
SAPBO 2007 SP1 PL 12
A/R Down Paymenti invoice 100 + tax20 = 120 (it is paid)
A/R Invoice :
80 + 20(freight) + 20(tax) = 120
When I linked the a/r down payment invoice the system returns this error:
"Total amount of this payment must be less than amount of invoice"
because It compares 100 with 80 not considering the freight of 20.
I tried in SBO 8.8 SP0 PL 14 and it works correctly!!!
Any idea???
Simona.

Hi Simona,
New version has changed certain process based on users request. If 8.8 is working for you, upgrade 2007 version soon.

No Freight cost on AR Down Payment Invoice

Hello,
My customer needs to create an 100% AR Down Payment Invoice based on a Sales Order with freight costs. But this is not copied across, plus you don't have the option to add this either..
How can this be done, I don't see an option.
Regards,
Petronella

Hi,
Could that be manipulated with SDK?! (The down payment module does not have the option to add additional expesnes. It will only work with Line item totals.)
Thanks for the other option, I'll advice the client about this.

AR Down Payment Invoice overpays when paying in full, with freight

We entered a sales order, then selected AR Down Payment Invoice from the Sales Order Copy To options. In this case, we decided to invoice for the full amount, including the freight.
A Down Payment was created for 100% of the total, yet an invoice remains for the freight, which was already included in the Down Payment invoice. This causes the customer to be billed twice for freight.
Has anyone come up against this before?
SAP 2007A
Thanks
Mike

Mike,
A down payment, based on the definition, should be < full amount. If your business case decide to charge full amount up front, better using deposit or payment on account option. Then you don't need to deal with this Billing Twice situation.
Thanks,
Gordon

Workflow for approval of down payment for outward freight

Can somebody suggest if is there any standard workflow available or not for approval of down payment for outward freight in SAP system? I want to build a workflow for this purpose upto two level of approval.
Thanks & Regards,
Manas

Hi Manas,
There is business object BSEG for down payment request. Try to use that and u can find workflow as Arghadip said in other thread. In PFTC u can go for F4 and search.

AR Down Payment Invoice - Freight field needed

Hi,
I have various freight options defined in Admin>Setup>General>Freight.
When I create an AR Invoice there is a Freight field in the General area near the Total field, here I can click the orange arrow and select the appropriate freight option from the list.
But when I create an AR Down Payment Invoice this Freight field is not appearing.
Can anyone advise how to have the Freight field appear so I can add freight to an AR Down Payment Invoice in the same way as an AR Invoice? I have tried the form settings but have not resolved the problem

Thank you Jitin
This is the scenario - perhaps there is a better way for me to manage the process than Down Payment Invoice? :
Our normal process with an established customer who has a 30-day credit account:
We create SAP Sales Order.
When goods are ready to ship we copy Sales Order to Delivery which adjusts the stock level and we ship the goods.
We then copy Delivery to AR Invoice and add the freight.
But when a new customer wishes to place an order we require payment in full including tax & freight before shipping:
So I need to create a document to send the customer which is the same as the final invoice including tax & freight but which does not make any adjustment to the stock.
What is the best way to do this?

Down Payment AR Invoice freight Missing Functionality

Freight does not transfer to down payment invoice. Here is the scenario:
Create a sales order (item or service type). Add freight charges.
Create a down payment invoice - copy from sales order. All items transfer except no freight charges.
This is a large problem as it causes descrepancies between customer account.

Hi Keith,
my suggestion would be following (combination of yours and my words):
1. Customer places an order for a new oven for a restaurant kitchen. Order is for product and installation.
2. Sales order is entered for $100,000 + freight $2000.
3. Down payment invoice is created 1/3 based on the Sales order. The price in the grid of the DP invoice is increase so the total of DP Invoice is $35,000
4. Customer pays the down payment invoice and payment is applied for $35,000.
5. More work is done on building the oven and client wants to invoice another $33,000 but still has not shipped anything. DP Invoice is created based on the Sales Order and DP Invoice grid is adjusted so that the total value of DP Invoice is $33,000.
6. Payment is received from customer and applied to the second down payment invoice.
7. Oven is completely built and will be shipped so they want to invoice another $25,000. DP Invoice is created based on the Sales Order and DP Invoice grid is adjusted so that the total value of DP Invoice is $25,000.
8. After oven arrives at customer site, installation is performed so they want to invoice the final amount. They can create the Final Invoice based on the Sales Order: $100,000 + freight $2000 and system automatically propose the Down Payments in the aggregated value: $35,000$33,000$25,000=$93,000
So the total of the Final Invoice which should be paid is $120,000-$93,000=$27,000.
The limitation of this proposal is that the total DP amount paid should be less than net amount of the Final Invoice ($100,000 in this case), because of the "net approach" for the DP allocation....
