Customer down payment request in F-37

Hello,
We have configured alternate recon accounts for down payments from customer in TC: OBXR. Here, we have config. spl GL indicators like F (down payment request) and A(Down payment) alongwith recon accounts. When i am posting down pay request in TC: F-37 system is displaying spl GL indicator A in Trg. sp. G/L ind automatically. But in configuration we have maintained indicator F for down pay request. When i am changing indicator from A to F system is giving error message like "Spl GL indicator F is not defined for down payments, message no.F5053". If i put indicator A then i can able to post request.
Can anyone help me in this....
Regards
Krishna

Hi Krishna,
You dont have to change the Trg Spl Gl indicator from A to F. It should remain as A itself.
F-37 uses indicator F to post the request. After posting the request you can see the line item in FBL5N with the indicator F.
When you convert the request to a down payment through tocde F-29, the system posts it to the spl gl indicator A (target indicator)

Customer Down Payment request inclusive of Tax

Hello SAP Experts,
I have following requirement for down payment request scenario.
Current AS-IS situation
Sales order (VA01) ---> Prepayment Order ( VA01) --> Down payment request / Down payment Invoice ( VF01) --> accounting document of VF01
100 Rs. Net 100 Rs. Net 100 Rs. Net
20 Rs. VAT ------> 20 Rs. VAT ---------> 20 Rs. VAT ---> 100 Rs.
in this accounting document entry is happening as noted item with
DR. Customer Account ( net amount without Tax) 100
.so, after this step, I can see in FBL5N as 100 Rs. as open item for customer
TO BE Scenario
my user needs that at this step, posting should be
Dr Customer A/C - 120
Cr. customer down payment - 100
Cr. Tax - 20
can you please suggest and give your input in order to how can we achieve this.
Thank you for your input.

Hello Jignesh,
Just a design level suggestion for your requirement.
You are looking to have a system that calculates tax during DP invoice.
Create a new Item category which has 'Billing Plan' tab enabled at Item level. Check with Abap'er to bring a custom field (check box) saying 'Tax on down payment'. Here the posting schema needs to be defined (like which account needs to be used for tax posting and its PK and D/H indicator and use some FM for tax calculation and check for zero balancing, etc.,.)
Then whenever the check box is ticked, and the Billing is performed for the DP invoice, then enable the system to calculate tax amount based on the tax classification & tax defined for the SO using the so called code written in routine or user exit. Now, the tax calculation can be achieved.
This is purely a custom suggestion (nothing to do with standard SAP). Sorry i couldnt able to provide much of a technical solution for your requirement . But still this is achievable and i worked some years back on the same.

Clearing customer down payment without VAT code

Dear Freinds
For normal cleared items ( between invoices and incoming payments) the VAT code doen't appear.
But while clearing a Customer Down payment request, when we are using a sp. GL Indicator it is asking for tax code
I want to clear customer down payment without tax code.According to the local legal requirement in the VAT report should not appear any clearing with tax code even if Tax code has no tax.
Can anybody help me?? I tried changing the tax category of Sp. Gl Recon account to blank but then it doesn't allow to post a down payment request with tax applicable.
Rgds
Sudip

Hi Ravindra
If we remove the tax category, then the problem is when we create a down payment request and do billing where tax rate is applicable, Entry will not happen in Accounting.
Only thing which I need is that at time of clearing the down payment request, putting tax code should not be mandatory.Just like when I am clearing a normal invoice (Inv. and incoming payment) no tax code is required.

Usage of field VBEL2 (sales document) in customer down payments (F-37 or F-29)

Hello Experts
I need to know what is the point of field VBEL2 (sales document) while creating a customer down payments in tcodes F-37 or F-29. I did some tests in my client and still can't come up with the solution.
I thought that somehow this field was used to link the downpayment with the invoice so that you can see them grouped in customer clearing (F-32), but that was not the case.
Then I did a whole invoice cycle like this:
1. Created sales order in tx VA01
2. Posted customer down payment request in tx F-37. I gave VBEL2 field the sales order number I got in step 1.
3. Registered customer down payment in F-29
4. Posted outbound delivery in Tx. VL01N and gave sales order from step 1.
5. Posted invoice from outbound delivery from step 4.
After this I checked in F-32, or document flow and sales order to see any relation and couldn't find any.
Can anyone explain what is this field for? Or is this only a reference field for reports.
Thanks

Hi
I know that but the Sales Document filed is not there in that T.code. Thats the problem.

This is a new question related to Down payment request
I have the following scenario.
Please advise on how to implement this process using contracts and sales orders.
Customer buys a warranty contract for a specific period of time say 1 year and pays 100% Down payment
This Down Payment must not be posted to revenue account. It should be posted to Down payment
During contract validity time, free of charge services and spare parts are delivered to customer when a customer has a problem.
When services or spare parts are delivered then post to revenue account. E.g 10% of down payment is posted to revenue. Amount on down payment account is reduced by 10%.
Which type of contract and sales process can be used for this scenario?
Note at the time of closing the contract, the spare parts to be delivered are not known.
Many thanks for your help.

Help Needed with creting down payment request without tax from order

Hello,
We are trigerring a down payment request from sales order. There is no tax to be collected on down payment. When the billing document is created SAP copied over tax elements from order and posts a relevant tax code on the down payment billing document. How can we force a zero tax code on the DPR billing document?

Hello Pankaj,
I think you don´t want to determine any tax condition?
Try to assign requirement 84 to your tax condition(-s) in the pricing procedure. This requirement helped me not to determine
other condition types in the down payment billing document.
If you just want to determine a different tax code the solution could be to define a new table (key kombination) in the access sequence assigned to your tax conditions. That new table could include the billing type in additional to other criteria and can help you to determine a different tax code with otherwise identical parameters.
Hope this helps.

Summarizing open items in down payment request from SD

Hello!
We have a sales order with a billing plan, let say, 20% down payment, 80% - final invoice. There are 3 items in the sales order. When creating the down payment request the system creates 1 document with 3 customer lines. We would like to have 1 document with only 1 customer line. Is it possible to summarize customer lines on the down payment request?
OSS note 213852 "Analysis of down payment processing with FI" says that summarization is not possible, but the note was issued in 2002. Were there any updates since then?
Thank you!

Hi Goutham,
I think you should have posted this question to PLM forum i.e. Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). Project System is part of PLM .
Down payment request can not be created automatically from the project structure or milestone in projects.Milestones in projects are used for billing purpose.
You can use transaction f-47 to enter down payment request.
Please refer the link below for down payment request.

IDOC from SRM to create Down Payment Request (F-47) in ECC

We need to build one custom object in SRM. This object(upon final approval) should trigger the creation of Down Payment Request in ECC(Tcode F-47) System. To elaborate more in simplest terms, The custom object in SRM is created to capture Advance Payment Request related Data. (Vendor, contract no, Advance Amount etc...). There is no standard IDOC type in SRM to capture this data.
In ECC system, we have one standard IDOC related to Down payment request (IDOC Type FIDCCP01).
Other thing is, when this outbound IDOC is trigerred from SRM, it has to not only to get the data from that custom object but also calculate some values and fill this in down payment request fields.
Now questions:
Please help in letting me know the best method to achieve this. Should we use IDOC tecnology? If yes, then please detail the steps needed to achive this. Should we create the same IDOCbasic type FIDCCP01 in SRM as we have in ECC. How can IDOC capture the calculated values for some fields in Down payment request? Do we need to create some function module for this?
Please detail the process step needed to achive this(like IDOC Basic Type creation, Functiona Module creation etc etc...). Or if we should use some other methd like RFC or BAdi etc... then please let know.
Thanks for any help the SDN community could provide.

Ravi

Customer Down Payment

Dear Gurus,
Have a question on Customer Down Payment.
We first create a request, next when the Down Payment is received then we clear the request against the payment received. When the invoice is raised can we do automatic clearing of the Down Payment with the Invoice?
If yes, what would be the process... do we have to clear the Down Payment first manually and then we do automatic clearing?
Do let me know this, thanks in advance.
regards,
Raj

Down Payment Request for Delivery-Related Item

Hi,
My customer has a scenario where they will need make a down payment request to the customer before delivery. E.g. For a sale of Item 1 ($100), they need a deposit of $10 before they proceed with the delivery. After the collection of the 10% down payment, they will deliver the goods and invoice the remaining 90%.
I've checked the Billing Plan/Milestone Billing functionality, however it only applies for order-related billing item. Has anybody here encountered similar scenarios? What are the suggested methods to tackle this scenario?
Appreciate your help in this. Thanks!
Regards,
Xien

Please do the following
1. Activate Reconciliation account ready input setting for your Main reconciliation account in FS00
2. If you dont find the setting in FS00, then you have to change FSG settings for this account group in OBD4.
3. Also assign alternative reconciliation accounts to your reconciliation account
Now system asks you to input the alternative recon account when you do the transactions.

Hi Heather,
I have found the same problem too.
In SAP Business 2005A, we allow to do Internal Reconciliation on this Downpayment Request with 100% and the Invoice.
The only differences is this Invoice with status Closed.
But In SAP Business 2007A, we not allow to do Internal Reconciliation on this Downpayment Request with 100% and the Invoice.
The only differences is this Invoice with status Open compared in 2005A.
I have checked in both version 2005A and 2007A Journal Entry, there is nothing wrong on it.
Why this happen in version 2007A?
Hope Jitin can answer our Question.
Best Regards,
danny

Hiting Different Revenue accounts while Using AR Down Payment Request

Hello Experts,
(SBO 8.8, PL14)
Scenario: I am selecting the Revenue accounts and COGS acount at row level of AR invoice, if I make AR invoice without engaging AR Down payment request it works fine.
But if I engage AR Down payment request in AR invoice, the system splits the Revenue in two accounts 1. in the revene account (Sales Gross Department-wise) selected at row level in AR invoice and other revenue account set in Item group.
Transaction Detail:
Customer -
Dr (33,599.00).
Sales Gross Dept-wise (Revenue) -
Cr (32,458.00) (This account was selected at row level in AR Invoice).
Sales Gross (Revenue)----
Cr ( 1,141.00) (This account was set in the Item Group).
The question is why this account set in item group was hit as I selected the different at row level in AR invoice, and that is only in case of selecting AR Down Payment Invoice in AR Invoice.
Help Required please,
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
If you engage AR Down payment request in AR invoice and do not want the system splits the Revenue in two accounts, you should use clearing account. In that case, the final posting account for Down payment can be selected with the same account as invoice account.
Thanks,
Gordon
