Mile stone billing with Down payment clearing

Hi,
Urgent help needed.
I need to set up mile stone billing plan at item level with down payment getting automatically offset with Invoice
ie,
I have 10% down payment (FAZ).
And mile stone invoicing of 40% and 60% each.
I have raised down payment request and the incoming payment is posted.
Now, when I raise the invoices, I want the down payment received auotomatically deducted from the invoice amount and shown as separate line item in the invoice. What settings need to be done?
ie, if 10000 EUR is the total amount, down payment is 1000 EUR.
My first invoice should show 4000 - 400 = 3600 EUR due from the cutomer and second invoice shud have 6000-600=5400 EUR due.
The item category is ZTAO
I have maintained the following settings:
1. Condition type AZWR in the pricing procedure with requirement as 2 (item with pricing) and the calculation formula 48
2. Copy control set up for Order type TA with billing type FAZ for the item category ZTAO with Copying requirement 20
3. Copy control set up for Order type TA with billing type F2 for the item category ZTAO with Copying requirement 23
But the invoice is not showing the down payment amount. Can any one tell me what is that I am missing? This is in ECC6.0
Thank You,
Resmi.

Any one who come across a solution, pls mail us!!

Milestone billing with Partial Dispatch

Scenario..
1) The material we have is a large machine tool
2) We create a sales order for stage wise payments and raise down-payment requests for the advance and various stages of manufacture.
3) The M/c is assembled and checked for performance...
4) Since the machine is of large size it is now dismantled and dispatches of parts of the m/c take place.
5) We are not sure at the time of sales order as to what would be final configuration of the knocked down machine
6) The machine is packed -- child material of various sub-assembles are clubbed together and a packing list is prepared..
7) Delivery of these packs are made thru PS
8) Now I want to bill this m/c with 70% of the payment to be realized at the time of dispatch..
However the 70% of the payment to be realized has to billed in 4-5 lots as per the delivery of the individual packs delivered.
How do I Do the final billing ??
Kindly Help
Regards
Somnath

The billing plan for the sales order contains billing-relevant deadlines. As soon as you take away the billing block, you can carry out billing.
In billing those payments already made by the customer should be cleared. This happens because those payments already made are taken into the billing document as items to be cleared. They are set as items, after the billing items to which they refer, in the billing document. When printing (Report RVADIN01 with form RVINVOICE01) the customer receives for the down payment items the text payments made printed out. The down payment item value corresponds to those down payments made.
There is no billing: Billing amount - Down payment amount = the remaining amount to be paid. The customer merely receives the information concerning which amount he can transport during payment.
You can change the proposed down payment amount for clearing manually. The reason for this can be that part of the down payment should be proposed for further billing. Calculation formula 48 in the pricing procedure for the condition type AZWR merely checks that the amount cannot be increased.
The down payments assigned to a billing document for clearing cause the system to offset all the completed payments against receivables in Financial Accounting (FI).
The total amount of the final invoice is automatically posted in FI as a receivable, and the allotted down payments are cleared directly (down payment clearing).The transaction is finished with the incoming payment posting and the open items are cleared. Postings made to the relevant general ledger account in Financial Accounting reduce the down payments left to be cleared.
Final Billing with Down Payment Clearing
The sales order billing plan also contains the final billing date. As soon as you take away the billing block, you can carry out final billing.
In billing those payments already made by the customer should be cleared. This happens because those payments already made are taken into the billing document as items to be cleared. They are set as items, after the billing items to which they refer, in the billing document. When printing (Report RVADIN01 with form RVINVOICE01) the customer receives the text payments made printed out for the down payment items. The down payment item value corresponds to those down payments made and not yet cleared.
There is no billing. Billed amount - Down payment amount = remaining amount
to be paid. The customer merely receives the information concerning which amount he can transport during payment.
The down payments assigned to a billing document for clearing cause the system to offset all the completed payments against receivables in Financial Accounting (FI).
The total amount of the partial/final invoice is automatically posted in FI as a receivable, and the allotted down payments are cleared directly (down payment clearing).The transaction finishes when the incoming payment is posted and the open items are cleared. Postings made to the relevant general ledger account in Financial Accounting reduce the down payments left to be cleared.

Issue with down payment tax cal and clearing it aganest vendor inv

HI,
I have an issue with down payment tax cal.
1.     I had configured withholding tax and raised down payment, tax has been cal
2.     In the next step I had raised inv, at this time also tax had been cal
3.     When I am doing down payment clearing the tax collected at the time of down payment had to be reversed but itu2019s not.
Can any one give me solution for clearing the tax that cal on down payment.
Thanking you.

Dear
Vendor master has got tax codes both at the time of payment and at the time of invoice. Hence system is calculating tds on both occassions.
Since you pay advance first tds calculated is right. Now while doing miro remove the tax codes manually and do miro/mir7/fb60.
If already MIRO/MIR7/FB60 done then reverse the invoice document and clear the tax GL accounts.

Post Vendor invoice with Down Payment via BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE

Hi Experts,
We have configured downpayment functionality for PO's. We have below process
Create PO with down Payment request -> Create down payment request -> Run payment program for paying down payment -> Post GR -> Post invoice with BAPI (considering down payments against invoice)
But unfortunately when I am trying to post PO invoice with downpayment details using BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE I do not see any fields related to down payment. Can some one confirm me if SAP has provided this functionality? if NO any workarounds?

DP90 - Rebilling with down payment OSS Note 858703

Hello Gurus,
Even configuring customers test system according above mentioned OSS Note 858703 with order type TAF I do not get the process running.... When starting order creation (VA01) system doe not allow to enter sold-to and ship-to customer numbers.
This alone stops any testing.
Does anyone of you has experience or at least a clue what to do to resolve this? E.g. For testing I customized order type TA as ZTA and same same as order tpye TAF and it was possible to enter sold-to and ship-to party.
Any hind is very welcome as a customer waits for solution.
Many thanks in advance!!
Rgds, Carsten

Carsten
I just found out the reason why the system does not allow to enter sold-to and ship-to customer numbers:
"There is no partner determination procedure" assigned to order type TAF". This seems to be the way SAP delivers this order type.
So go there and assign whatever is the procedure you used for your other orders or create a new procedure and assign it, it will work fine.
By the way billling with down payment is not implemented at my customer site, I just tested with TAF order and it was behaving exactly as you described.
Then on a hunch I went and saw if there is a Partner Det procedure and there is none.

DP90 - Rebilling with down payment

Hello gurus,
I'm struggling in setting up rebilling with down payment function / DP90. I used OSS 858703 to configure this scenario. Unfortunately I got an error message which linked to
DB-View V_VPKHI and
FM VPKD8_GET_PDOC_FOR_SDORDER .
Additionally it's really annoying, only 2 entries are in VPKHI but none of them is realated to my testcase.
--> I wonder if somebody has already experience in configuring rebilling with down payments?
Kindly ask for sharing your knowledge about it. Do you have a reliable documentation of one of you past projects you can share??
Any feedback is highly welcome!!!!
Thanks a lot in advance!
Cheers, Carsten.

Invoice block for PO with down payment

Hi All,
My requirement is to block every invoice created for PO that has down payment.
Is it can be done by standard SAP ?
Thanks.

Hi Srinvas,
Yes, system will prompt me message. But if the user never clear the down payment with the invoice, when I do payment run, the invoice will be selected for payment again.
This will cause me double payment. That's why I need the invoice of PO with down payment to be block.
Is this possible by standard configuration ?

Is it OK to use F-47 and F-48 for partial invoicing plan with down payment

Dear all,
In the case of partial invoicing plan I am using a separate row for down payment ,
The total of the sum is greater than the PO line item
But after the f-47 and f-48 and miro for actual mile stone the partial invoicing plan is not coming gray.
What would be the procedure for down payment for a partial invoicing PO (Milestone PO) ?
Thanking you

Order and invoice for miscellaneous sales with down payment

I have followed follwing steps--
1) MiSc type order (500 EUR)
2) VF01 with billing doc type VFZ (down payment) (200 EUR)
actually m doing some testing work---
now next step is
Cash the advance:
According to the payment method of the customer, the incoming payment will be done automatically or manually. In order to unroll the flow fully, we will consider here, a manual incoming payment by check
Clear the payment with the receivable in the customer account. For this, select the corresponding receivable in the treatment of the uncleared items.
Through F-28
how to do this pl guide.
and next step is to bill remaining amount and book the remaining amount

Hi nikhil,
After creation of Order , if you are receiveing down payment from customer , goto F-29 - Down Payment and enter your sale order also if required.
After billing invoice will ge generated. then goto F-39 (clear downpayment) and finally goto F-32 and clear open items

Billing Plan Down Payment

Dear All,
I am creating the Down Payment for Billing Plan.When i am trying to do multiple lines, the total amount of Down Payment deducted in full amount. here is the example :
I have created Down Payment Request with 200 Eur and then go to F-29 to claim this amount.
Then i tried to go for first batch which is 40%, so it is supposed the the Down Payment that will be deducted is 80 Eur however the full 200 Eur came as full amount.
any idea.

Dear Abul Rahim,
few years ago there was a SAP consultant in our company and together with my colleague bulit this solution. It was never used (for down payment is still used very old solution which is hard to modify so I decided to try this "new one").
How it should work. Create standard sales order with requested materiál items. Then if down payment should happen, insert new service item with item category TAO. Then for this service item create FAZ invoice. After this document is cleared by incoming payment, delivery from sales order is created. And then standard F2 invoice.
This scenario works well, the only thing I do not like is to fill "Billed value" manually to "Billing plan".
As I assume, you mentioned use TAO item category for all "materiál" items. I am not sure whether this is proper solution. If I will have dozens of items to modify in case of down payment is necessary - sales people will hate me. And I am not sure how to handle delivery from this items. For me is preferred solution to use extra service item for down payment. If it means that there is necessary to fill amount, so be it. But if there is a way how to do it automatically, I would be happy.
Thank you and best regards,
David

Invoice Purchase Order with Down Payments brings wrong Due Amount

Hello,
I am working on 8.81 PL08 environment and I have this situation:
I issue a Purchase Order and then a Down Payment Request which I pay. When I go to invoice the purchase order the down payment and payment due fields on the invoice are correct.
In the case I issue another down payment request and for the same Purchase Order which closes the amount of invoice then when I go to the invoice and choose Copy From the same fields are not right.
If I go to Purchase Order and choose Copy To the amounts are correct.
So the situation is like this:
- Down Payment part of Purchase Order. Due Payment to invoice correct
- Down Payment full amount of Purchase Order. Choose Copy To from Purchase Order to Purchase Invoice. Due Payment correct.
- Down Payment full amount of Purchase Order. Choose Copy From from Purchase Invoice. Due Payment wrong.
Has anyone seen this before?
Thank you,
Gerasimos

Thank you Gordon,
However I cannot deny to the user that wants to apply that that there is a business case where the vendor demands the invoice to be paid all in front (maybe one installment with the Purchase Order and one with the Receipt of the Goods). So, I would expect this to be covered.
I noticed another thing: When I opened the Down Payments screen on Invoice (where Down Payments are listed in order to choose them) there is a column "Open Net Amount" which brings the correct amount. However, in the column "Net Amount to Draw" there is a wrong figure and that makes the mistake.
Now I can see that I can wright the correct amount to column "Net Amount to Draw" but still I cannot understand why a user should do that.

A/R Invoice that link with Down Payment document have reversed GST from DP

Hi All,
I am buzzle on why SAP has changed their function for down payment in 8.81 version. For example, if SO amount is $1000 and GST is $70, but company request their customer to pay $500 as deposit (add GST $35). In SAP 8.81 version, the double entries will be as below:
Down Payment Invoice
Dr Customer                        $535
Cr GST                                         $ 35
Cr Down Payment Clearing Acct $500
Incoming Payment
Dr Bank                              $535
Cr Customer                               $535
Invoice (final)
Dr Customer                                 $535
Dr Down Payment Clearing Acct $500
Cr GST                                                 $70
Dr GST                                          $35
Cr Sales                                              $1000
In the final invoice, why there is a reversal of GST amount from Down Payment invoice? In previous version, final invoice will only calculate the GST amount base on balance amount instead of currently credit with full sales amount's gst and reverse previously posted gst amount from down payment invoice.
This will cause problem if down payment invoice and final invoice are few months apart. Company will have paid the down payment invoice's gst amount. Anyone knows the logic for current changes? Appreciate if anyone can help, thanks.

Dear Expert
Let me clarify my client's scenario more to see whether you could give advise.
My client's business is project based and the invoicing flow is as below:
Phase 1 -
Invoicing 30%
Phase 2 -
Invoicing 30%
Phase 3 -
Invoicing 40%
                                               Total 100%
However, invoice for phase 2 maybe issued before invoice for phase 1 is paid and so do invoice for phase 3.
There is also possibility that invoice for phase 1 is paid while invoice for phase 2 is not at the time when whole project is completed. Invoice for phase 3 therefore has to be issued before invoice for phase 2 is paid.
The installments for A/R is not applicable in this case since sales would be realized at the time when the A/R invoice is issued.
My client would have to realize the sales upon completion of project phase. A/R down payment invoice almost satisfy this scenario however, no A/R invoice of the balance with reference to the down payment invoices can be issued before the down payment invoices are settled.
Can anything be done to overcome this limitation?
Regards
Elton

Vendor payment advice with down payment

Hi,
A down payment was made to a vendor, without having the invoice yet.
On the vendor payment advice, this down payment is shown as "invoice".
I think it should be shown as "advance payment".
The down payment is listed as a noted item in the vendor open items with document type KA (vendor document).
How can the down payment be shown as "advance payment" on the payment advice?
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Linda

Hi Ravi,
I have created a down payment request for a vendor via transaction F-47.
I have made a payment run via transaction F110.
In the payment run, I have 2 invoices and 1 down payment request.
On the payment advice, which is printed after executed the payment run, the invoices and the down payment are listed as "invoices".
The down payment request is in fact an "advance payment" , because we have not yet received the invoice.
Is there a possibility to show it as an "advance payment" instead of "invoice"?
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Linda
