SD-FI Integration Specific Requirement

Question

Hi,
We have a following requirement in SD-FI Integration
It is easy to illustrate with following example
Sale Value to Customer       :        20000
Down Payment by Customer:          5000
Bank Financing                   :        15000
The requirement is that once delivery is taken by Customer, the responsibility for making the Balance Payment is with the Bank Financing the Customer; To this effect, Bank also will be defined as a Customer
At the point of Invoice, we want the following Entries to flow to FI automatically (without any manual intervention)
1. Dr Customer 20000
    Cr Sales                  20000
2. Dr Financing Bank    15000
    Cr Customer            15000
3. Dr Advance from Client 5000
    Cr Customer                5000 (and also clear the entry in Advance from Client)
Please advice how this (atleast the 1st 2 entries) can be achieved without manual intervention in Accounting;
Thanks in advance
Siddique

Hi Mohamed,
Advance to customer should be posted through FI transaction code F-29 Down payments or through down payment request F-37 depending on the business process cycle between FI and SD departments.
But when you are doing the sales order, it will be raised for full amount. I.e. 20000.
For you second issue I don’t think any standard customization exists. But I think you can do it with some work around.
I think instead of making the financing bank as another customer, if you make this as one GL code then you can try this.
If your business owner is concerned about bank being customer then you can suggest a small BDC posting from the GL code to bank, which is maintained as customer.
Let me know if you want it through this mode.
