Letter of Credit for Vendor Payments

Hi All,
We are implementing ECC 6.0 Version.
The client requirement is to create Letter of Credit for Vendors and to capture data relating issue of Letter of Credit, Terms of Payment and Expirition Date. Against a Single Letter of Credit issued to a vendor client may receive more than one Invoice till the Expiry period of the Letter of Credit and Value. Further, client may also amend the Old Letter of Credit by extending the validity period or the value of the LC.
I know that we can create letter of credit through Special GL indicator 'L'. But it is one Letter of Credit to One invoice for clearing. How to map one letter of credit to multiple invoices and how we can capture expirition date of LC.
Further same vendor can have multiple LC opened against them for different projects. Please let me know detailed configuration steps.
Best Regards,
Bhargav.

Hi,
Sorry i guess my question is not clear. It is not to link any LC with PO
The client will raise a single LC against any import vendor. Since these are large CAPEX related purchases, the vendor will send multiple invoices. The bank will adjust the LC against the invoices. Post adjustment the bank will send th advice to the company.
My question was how we can adjust multiple invoices against a single LC

Materials Management: Letter Of Credit for Vendor in SAP ECC 6.0

Hello Experts,
We are in the process of implementing SAP GTM for our Client.
One of Our Prime requirement is to map Financial Document "Letter Of Credit" for the Vendor in case Imports. I found that Letter Of Credit can be created only for Customer in Sales/Foreign Trade but the same option is not available for Vendor.
Does sap support Letter Of Credit in MM-Imports or in Finance for Vendors?
Thanks & Regards,

Hello Debasis,
Post EPC installation,you need to perform configuration of EPC through portal.You can see it listed under configuration--> configuration scenarios-->EPC.
During configuration you will be asked to define path of you primavera installation and a user on that system with sufficient permissions. This user is called APS user.
Try to do a mock configuration run on sandbox/dev system and then you can follow the guide.

Calculate due date for vendor payment

hi friends,
In my project i need to calculate the due date for vendor payment.as my client maintain different payment terms for different vendors am not able to pick the payment key from t052 table and calculate the due date.
do anyone have a solution for this......
prajith

Hi
You can insert Payment terms in Vendor master and also you can change or assign payment term while making transaction.
But first of all you should have payment term.
IMG -- Financial Accounting -- Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable -- Outgoing Invoices/Credit Memos -- Maintain Terms of Payments

FEBAN - FB05 - error F5243 for vendor payment

Hello,
I kindly ask for a hint.
The vendor payment is included in eleclonical bank file.
From transaction FEBAN (Edit bank statement) for item which is not fully cleared we get to trans. FB05 (post with clearing) and try to post to account type K (vendor) - changed manually from D (customer) which is defaulted to K and vendor account number entered. The document type is not visible on selection screen when FB05 is accessed through FEBAN.
The document type for vendor payment should be KZ.
Somehow the transaction intend to hold DZ (customer payment) --> and when we hit enter an error message appears:
Account type K is not defined for document type DZ
Message no. F5243
Not sure what is driving this ...
Please, advise ...
Thanks a lot
Marcela

Hello,
Please check your configuration:
IMG => Financial Accounting => Bank Accounting => Payment Transactions => Electronic Bank Statement => Make Global Settings for Electronic Bank Statement
Give your chart of accounts
Double click on posting rules.
Check the document type given for the posting rule you are using to post.
You need to change from DZ to KZ.

Tables for vendor payments

Hi,
Are there any tables available in SAP for vendor payments.
I know some tables PAYR,REGUH,REGUP ETC.
But these are for after the printingof check is happened.
I want the table for manual payment,residual payment,advance payment etc.
Vendor invoices and cleared items will be stored in BSIK,BSAK,as well as these will be stored in BKPF,BSEK also.
In such a way vendor payments are all so stored in any other tables apart from BKPF,BSEG.
Kindly Reply......
Thanks in Advance
Radhika

When you raise a vendor invoice then it will be captured in BSIK, and as the payment takes place the value in BSIK will be cleared and the value appears in BASK. If the invoice is cleared or say the payment happened for the invoice then the cleared item will be captured in BSAK (Payment), there is no other table apart from these that capture the payment.
Just tell you requirement clearly.

Grouping Credit Entry in Bank Account for Vendor Payments using Pay Wizard

Dear All
We are currently testing Payment Wizard for BACS Payments to Vendors . We have successfully posted payments to Vendor Accounts and to the Bank Account in GL. However we note each Vendor payment is credited to the Bank Account individually even though the Bank will take the payment in one amount for the Payment File Total.
Is it possible to credit the Bank Account with the Total Payment Run value as one amount only so that the credit matches exactly the manner in which the Bank will take the payment ?
I realise that we could process BACs through a dummy GL Account for the Bank and journalise to the Bank Account in total but would prefer to avoid this option.
Regards
Seán Lyons

Dear Seán,
Welcome you post on the forum.
Even though it is not ideal, you may not be able to avoid such additional clearing account since the way B1 works can not be changed.
Thanks,
Gordon

FB01 for vendor payments

Dear Experts,
My question is regarding vendor payment entry from transaction FB01. My requirement is regarding upload of mass vendor payment entries. The accounting entry generated through vendor payment transaction F-53 cleares the open invoice and posts the payment entry. We are trying to generate the same effect from transaction FB01. We can post the payment entry here as below:
Posting Key
25Dr                        Vendor
50Cr                        Outgoing Payment Clearing
We are also giving invoice reference in the vendor line item in this entry to clear the open item. But this entry is not able to clear concerned open item and payment from the vendor account. Someone please let me know what am i missing in this entry or I should do it from some other transaction.
Regards,
Aniruddha Mahalle.

Hi Aniruddha,
The transaction code FB01 will only post the document and it will not clear the documents. You can use the transaction F-51 for post and clear the document. Here you have to enter only credit entry i.e. bank clearing account after that select chose open items,enter the vendor code,select process open items, select the invoice, simulate and save the documents. It will post the document and at the same time it will clear the items also.

Scheme of Entries for vendor payment under EBS system

Hello Friends,
I am setting below the scheme of entries as I think is appropriate for making a vendor payment. The scenario is that we will make a payment to the vendor where the payment will be released through BACS (we are working for a UK based client). After the payment run is made the payment is not actually made for some reasons and are returned. Then we make the payment again and this time the payment run goes through smoothly.
I would request you to please let me know if I am wrong in the scheme of entries and if yes, what would be the proper scheme.
1.
When Invoice is raised (FB60)
GR/IR a/c        Dr        100
VAT a/c          Dr          20
    To Vendor a/c Cr            120
At this point there is one open item that is created in the vendor account.
2.
When payment run is made (F110)
Vendor a/c                          Dr              120
      To Unclear BACS a/c     Cr                     120
At this point the entries in the vendor account are cleared by entry no 1 and 2 and there are no open items.
3.
When Bank returns the payment as unsuccessful and we clear the entry (F-03)
Return BACS a/c             Dr          120
    To Vendor A/c             Cr                     120
At this point there is one open item that is created in the vendor account
4.
When payment is once more made and this time successfully
Vendor a/c                       Dr             120
   To Unclear BACS a/c    Cr                       120
At this point entries 3 and 4 clears the open items in the vendor account and there remains no other open items.
Can someone please confirm if the sequence is correct or is there an additional step involved for resetting of any document after entry 2 when the payment run fails?
Regards,
Suvarghya Dutta

Hello,
When you have done step 2, immediately you will not come to know that your cheque is failed, only when you receive the bank statement.
In that case I would not expect you to post to a different account "Return BACS a/c". I do not see any reason for this account. I would expect you to debit to the same account "Unclear BACS a/c", which has been used in order to make the payment.
If you are using a different account for reversal, then you have to take two accounts for reconciliation purpose.
MIRO
GRIR Account Dr
To Vendor Account
F110
Vendor Account Dr
To Bank Sub-account (In your case Unclear BACS a/c)
FF67 or FF.5
If successfully paid
Bank Sub Account Dr
To Bank Main Account
If returned or unsuccessful (*)
Bank Sub Account Dr
To Vendor Account
If you are posting the entry (*) through bank statement, then no need to use FBRA.
Use FBRA immediately once you run F110 and you know that you have paid the vendor erronously. But once it reached bank and bank has issued bank statement, I would not expect you to run FBRA, but I would like to use FF67 process.
Regards,
Ravi

Financial documents/ Letter of Credit and down-payment

Hi,
I try to map requirements from business against solution in SAP.
There is a scenario as follows, where part of the sales order is covered through down-payment. This should be exempted from Letter of credit value.
Example
Sales Order value 1 Mio USD
Down-payment 0.2 Mio USD > paid immediately after sending out the request invoice (request is generated in SD from Sales order). Until payment, this would remain as the net exposure in the system.
LOC value should be only >> 0.8 Mio USD <<
Is there a solution in SAP to this? What would need to happen to enable this?
Cheers
Hein

Hello Hein
Well, for your requirement you have to go development.
For this you can use No credit check in TCode OVA8 for Define Automatic Credit Control for your desired combination of Credit control area, Risk class & Credit group.
Where you have to write a requirement with help of ABAPer.
OR
You can take assistance of FI guy and looking to define Reconciliation Accts Without Credit Management Update
Where In this IMG activity, you can cancel the credit management update function for certain postings by posting to an additional reconciliation account; the reconciliation account without credit management update.
When you make postings to the standard reconciliation account, the receivables total within credit management is then updated, but those postings made to the reconciliation account without credit management update are not.
In Japan, various receivables that are considered certain to be received are excluded from credit management update, including:
- Active prepaid/deferred items
- Payments by letter of credit
Hope this can assist you.
Thanks & Regards
JP
