Payment term baseline date in SD

Hi, all:
   In the configuration of payment term, there are four criteria for baseline date:
   no defalut date; entry date; docuemnt date; posting date.
   For SD receivable items, what the "entry date" and "docuemtn date" respectively stand for when calculate the open item receivalbe due date? Does "document date" mean billing docuemnt date or order date?
Thanks for your explanation!
Justin

Dear Justin
Document Date is the date on which you do a particular transaction. It is neither order date nor billing date.
Thanks

Payment terms - Baseline date calculation.

Hi
In payment terms configuration, we have option "No Default" for determining Base line date.
If we have payment terms with above configuration.......
In Fi, Baseline field will be blank while posing Customer Invoice, in which case We can enter baseline date manually. However If Invoice is generated from SD-billing document, we dont have any field "Baseline date" while posting billing doc. In such case how system determines Baseline date. When I checked few billing documents, Baseline date is defaulted with BIlling date even "No default" option is selected.
Is there any configuration in SD that prompts this action. or is it always billing date is defaulted ?
Please clarify

Hi !! Madhu,
There is a way, but not exactly what u require! You can check while maintaining the condition records in t.code VK12, observe the last two columns available, one is called a 'Fixed Value date' & the other is called 'Add Val Days'.
If you make any entry in the field 'Fixed Value date' this will be the date from which the payment terms start taking effects. Or if you make an entry in Add Val Days' in this case the payment terms start taking effect from billing date + the no. of days mentioned in this column.
You cannot make a entry in both 'fixed value date' & 'Add Val date' fields at one time.
Give your feedback if this has worked for you.

Discount cal by looking at 'Terms of Payment' and 'Baseline date'

Hi,
We have activated check box (Max. cash discount) in FBZP tcode for company code CUSA. As a result, when we run F110 (Vendor payment transaction), system is just looking at 'Terms of payment' and not 'Baseline date' and calculating discount FOR ALL VENDORS if the payment terms allow. However, there are some vendors where we need to look at both 'Terms of Payment' and 'Baseline date' and calculate discount.
How we can do this ? I checked up in F110 if there are any user exits so that we can put our own code for certain vendors, but I did not find any.
Any other solution for above.
Pl let us know.
Niranjan

Hi Sridhar,
Thanks for the help, but that will not help us. What you recommend is Alternative Baseline date. We cannot use that as we cannot ask users to enter all the terms of payment details while posting invoice. It is a waste of time. We want something that involves less time in entering data in SAP AND that will solve our current problem. I am looking for better solution.

Error posting asset to company ''Specify payment period baseline date''

Hi All,
Please some can advise on the below error msg.
While posting the asset in to company I will get error like ''Specify payment period baseline date'' and i cant go further.
Please advise ASAP.
Many Thanks
Balaji A S

Dear:
This error message normally appears if In the payment terms that you are using (can be seen in OBB8) there is no any default date assigned to the payment term. If it is then assign one like Posting Date or Document Date in OBB8 against the payment term you using. I am a bot confused in your case that why are you getting this error while acquiring the asset. Would you please elaborate the process you are using for asset acquisition.

Error on invoice "specify payment period baseline date".

Hi Experts,
When I create ZMIRO, ZMIRO it keeps
asking for a baseline date which we have never had to do before
Payment terms filled blank, but teh system throughs error message "specify payment period baseline date".
I
Please help.
Thanks,

Dear,
System will want to calculate due for payment to vendor for this invoice it must know baseline date from which it should start calculating the due date. Generally baseline date is determined from payment term but it is empty in your case. Enter a payment term in vendor master so that system will default the baseline date from settings done in payment term.
Baseline date has to exist in the invoice document.

Payment terms transaction data

Hello,
Could you please tell me in which table Payment terms transaction data is maintained. I have tried checking in BSEG table, but I am not getting the output, it is going into error or not responding after the execution.

Thanks

Payment Terms base date

Hi All;
For payment Terms, when the system starts calculating the number of days: from GR date, IR date, or baseline date?
Also can we make the GR date as the base date for payment?

The baseline date is controlled by the terms of payment and in customizing with transaction code OBB8.
There are four choices ->
No default    - Indicator that no default value is required for the
                       baseline date for payment. You then have to enter the
                       base date manually during document entry.
Posting date - Indicator that the posting date is to be proposed in
                        the base date field during document entry.
Document date - Indicator that the document date is to be proposed in
                          the base date field during document entry.
Entry date    - Indicator that the entry date is to be proposed in the
                       field "Base date" during document entry.
Therefore, if the GR date is required to be filled for the baseline date, the only possible solution is to enter it manually
during document entry.

Payment terms - due date on a particular day of the week say friday?

Experts is it possible in SAP payment terms to configure a term such that due date is on a particular day of the week?
I want use payment term to determine due date for weekly billing cycle (sunday to saturday) for the invoice to be due on Friday net 27 days from mid point of the week
eg 1. if a customer is invoiced any day between October 4th to 10th, the due date should be Friday Nov 6th
eg 2. if a customer is invoiced and day between October 11th to 17th, the due date should be Friday Nov 13th
Is this possible?
Thanks in Advance

You need custom development for this. Using custom development, Substitution in FI or User exit in SD
I. FI Substitution -
Create substitution with exit, for field day1 (BSEG-ZBD1T) and baseline date (BSEG-ZFBDT). In exit, determine number of days for required Friday from baseline date you want to use (say document date). This way, due date will be on Friday.
For determining Friday, use calendar or Ztables.
II. Invoices created in SD - If you are gerenating invoices in SD, use exit EXIT_SAPLV60B_008. This exit has table ACCIT which also has same fields Day1 and Baseline date. Follow same logic mentioned above.
I hope this helps.

Payement terms Baseline date

Hi All,
I had a billing document created on 01.04.09 and I am releasing the same to accounts on 05.04.09. Now my billing date will be 01.04.09 and payment terms C010 will start the calculation of the given 10 days from 01.04.09. But I need the start date should be the release date i.e., 05.04.09. For this I have changed all the given options in OBB8 " Default for baseline date ". But still system is taking the baseline as 01.04.09 only.
So can anyone suggest me how to change the baseline date as per my requirement.
Regards
Ratna

The payment term config only takes the baseline date from the Billing date even if u put the entry date or anything else there.... all those settings are for the FI documents posted manually......
whenever u use VF01 the baseline date is the billing date....
Now how to change it: if u have a sales order then there is a field called Value date.... it passes the value from SO to billing..... so if u put the value date as 05.01.2009 then the baseline date will capture the value date... so whenever the value date is given then syytem picks up that date instead of the billing date..... This field is not editable in the Billing document..........
Also u can change the baseline date manually after FI doc has been posted but it will only affect the AR aging not the actual invoice...

Liquidity Forecast not considering payment term / due date

I have configured liquidity forecast and it is picking up values just fine (ECC 6.0).
My problem is that in FF7B it is not taking "Payment Term" and "Due Date" in to consideration at all. Thus as a result not showing what is due on which date.
What do I need to do to ensure that FF7B (liquidity forecast report) show balances considering "Payment Term" and "Due Date"?
Or is here some functionality missing, or I am facing a program error?
Regards

Hi,
You do not have to give the Days there.
Their functionality is different.
Assign 15 in Payment terms Tab in No of Days, Percentage should be blank.
Then the system will calculate the net due date 15 days from Document Date.

Payment terms / Due date Schedule

Dear experts, how do the Payment terms definen in FI - FICA, relate to the Due Date Schedule used in Student Lifecycle Management?. Do I define Payment terms for the contract account, or just the Due Date Schedule?
Best regards.

Hello:
The Due Date Schedule (DDS) is used to split fees into payment plans (example 50% at beginning of term, 25% one month later and 25% two months later). The DDS is maintained in the Academic Calendar. To define the DDS you first need to set up a Time Limit and Time Limit Sequences using the IMG path: SLCM>Master Data in SLCM>Academic Calendars.. Note that at least one DDS is required even if you do not provide payment plans for the students. This DDS will have one payment date. The DDS can be assigned to the Program, Module, Student Account or Contract Object.
Each partial payment is an orgianal open item which in turn can be split into an FI-CA installment plan using Transaction FPR1.
As an alternative to the DDS you can use Transaction FPR1 to set up installment plans. This transaction provides more control over payments including dynamic definitoin of due dates.

Payment Term - Fixed date

Hello Friends,
Can any one please explain me how does the field "Fixed date" for the following payment term behaves?
Best Regards,
Jeetendar

Hi,
Can you do a test on this? I have tested and got 25th March as due date.
If fixed date is not mentioned, system simply calculates due date based on number of day/months mentioned. If fixed date is mentioned, Due date dayis always fixed to that date. This may behave differently if you mention cash discount percentage in first row. If a % is mentioned, this means, user can get mentioned % of cash discount till the calculated date based on fixed day and additional months. In second row, if you don't mention any %, these settings are used for due date calculation.
After due date, item becomes overdue.
In you case say you mention 1% in first row and no % in second row with additional months 1.
This means,
You can get 1% cash discount till 25th March and no cash discount between 25th March to 25th April.
Item is over due after 25th April.
Hope it is clear. I suggest to play around by changing these settings and posting invoices.
Thanks,

Invoice Reduction Invoice Payment Terms - Due Date

Hi gurus,
At the time we apply invoice reduction in MIRO screen, both invoices (regular and reduction) take vendor payemnt terms (for ex Due in 30 dyas). Is it possible to assign the invoice reduction invoice a fix payment term "Due Immediately" via configuration?
Thanks in advance

Hi there,
Im afraid there is no setting that will have the system post different payment terms in the invoice reduction
than what is in the invoice. In MIRO, if you use PO reference to create the IV document, the payment terms are copied from the PO and not from the vendor master. The business reason is, that the PO represents the contract between vendor and customer including the terms of payment. Also check out note 322430 as this gives a good description of the proposal logic for the terms of payment.
I hope this helps,
Best regards,
Adam.

Baseline date determination for Vendor Payment Terms

Hi gurus ,
Here is the question :
In Financial Accounting> Accounts Payable & Recievable>Vendors>Business transactions>Maintain Payment Terms
While maintaining payment terms Baseline date needs to be determined . What is the importance of Document date and Posting
Date for maintaining payment terms for vendors ?
Could anybody give some information on teh influence of Document Date and Posting Date formaintaining payment terms for
Vendors.
Any help is rewardable since i m a technical ABAPER have very little knowledge about FICO Functional.
Thanks
Kylietisha

Hi,
Suppose your Document date is 1.1.2010 and Posting date is 5.1.2010. And payment term 10 days for discount 5% and no discount thereafter.
If you set the baseline date as Doc date, your due date falls on 11th. Which means you cant post discount 5% if payment received after 11th.
If you set the baseline date as Posting date, your due date falls on 16th. Which means discount is given till 16th.
Hope this clears your doubt.
Ravi.
