SD Retention Amount Process

Hi Experts,
Have you ever implemented a Retention Sum Process in SD?
The Idea here is they Bill the Customers with a percentage only of the amount for a given date (per invoice), so the remaining percentage will be retained and accumulated in the closing of the Project (Contract of Service). How do you approach/implement this process? Can this be done in a normal process in SD? Because once you bill the customer for the whole amount, the A/R Aging will reflect the amount not paid only for the invoice, but instead it should only reflect on the end of Project (Contract of Service).
Thank you on your suggestions.

Hi,
As per my understanding it can be manageable in standard functionality,
Please elaborate whole process
so we can suggest proper solution

  • Retention amount paid to vendor is not updated in PO history tab

    Dear All,
    I had activated business function 'LOG_MMFI_P2P'. As a result i am getting Payment processing tab in PO.
    There i can define Down payment and Retention percentages. I had created a service purchase order and then service entry sheet.
    After the acceptance of service entry sheet i did invoicing (MIRO). Here i get an option to clear down payment (an additional button becomes available to clear down payment). That scenario is working perfectly fine. System also proposes the retention amount. I can change retention amount/percentage or continue with same.After invoice is posted the retention amount is visible under PO history tab against Invoice number.
    Now my problem is when i am doing payment of retention amount(after doing payment of services deducting down payment and retention)  to vendor the 'Posted Retention in Document Currency' column in PO history tab is not updated.
    Regards,
    Kamal

    Dear Pankaj,
    Thanks for quick Reply.
    I think you did not understand my question. In PO history tab for down payment scenario (defined through PO and cleared in MIRO) proper lines are getting created. For retention new line will not be created. But the invoice row in PO history tab is having two columns -
    1) Retention in Document Currency.
    2) Posted Retention in Document Currency.
    The first column is having value which is the retention amount. But second column is not having any value even after the payment (portion held as retention)is made.
    I will add one more thing. If i run FK10N for the vendor- then Special G/L account for retention is updated properly.

    What is the correct way of posting retention to Vendor against invoice by doing which 'Posted Retention in Document Currency' column gets updated ? I am currently posting payment by F-53 for open Special G/L Items.
    One more thing currently FK10N is giving proper values. I mean after payment is done balance under Special G/L account for retention becomes zero.

    Hi,
    First check the Current period in OMSY trx...for your Comp code..
    Then go to MMPV and enter Comp code, Period & Year
    and execute...
    Ex: if the current period in OMSY for your Comp code is 01,2008
    then you need to enter period 02, 2008 in MMPV trx...
    so, that period 01 will be closed & Period 02 will be opened automatically...
    You need to close periods one by one like this..
    until the period you want use...
    Remember you can not Roll back the closed period
    Be careful in closing the MM period in PRD client.
    Thx

  • Retention amount/ payment term

    Hi Sap Gurus ,
    I have a request from the client to configure , retention amount from vendors
    Can any one please xplain the configuration steps for the business process mentioned below .
    Cost of the COntract 100000 thousand , to be executed in four months
    At the end of 1st month invoice received for payment 25% of the contract amount
    At the end of 2nd month invoice received for payment 25% of the contract amount
    At the end of 3rd month invoice received for payment 25% of the contract amount
    At the end of the contract invoice received for the final payment of 25% amount
    THe business requirement is ,THe client wants to retain 10 % of every invoice(2500 per invoice ) and make the payment after six months ,starting from the end of the contract, that is at the end of 10th month from the contract start period .
    Request you all to please provide me a solution on the above
    Regards
    Vik

    Hi Vik,
    You need to configure 3 terms of payment for this purpose.
    Tcode: OBB8
    Z001   Main terms of payment which you will enter at the time of posting.
    In this terms of payment, you should flag the "Installment Payment" Checkbox.
    Z002   Immediate or X number of days from the posting date or document date as the case may be in your situation for 90% of the amount.
    Z003   After six months from the end date of the contract for 10% amount.
    Now Goto TCode: OBB9 and give new entries as follows:
    Payment Terms    Installment   Percentage   Payment term
                   Z001                   1                90                Z002
                   Z001                   2                10                Z003
    In case you dont want to give it in the number of days,  you can also specify it in the form of fixed date+additional months in the OBB8 while configuring the payment terms..
    Hope this answer helps you.  Please assign points if found useful..

  • Posted Security Retention Amount in Company Code Currency

    Hi All,
    I want to know how amount is populated in "Posted Security Retention Amount in Company Code Currency" at PO History Table.
    We have created PO with Retention, at the time of MIRO system is showing amount in "Retention Amount in Company Code Currency" this amount is posted in Special GL.
    When we are making payment with Special GL, it is not showing any amount in "Posted Security Retention Amount in Company Code Currency" at PO History Column.
    Any one please help me to understand how the amount is populated in this field.
    Thanks!!!
    Regards,
    Vivek Srivastva

    Hi,
    In PO you can mention the retention amount or percentage, as you told correctly at the time of MIRO it will post seperate line items for retention with spl gl.
    while making payment in F-53, if you dont want to pay retention amount first just do as normal payment but while selecting the invoice you have to select one more line item with retention so that you can reduce the invoice amount while making the payment.
    now you want to make the retention payment . go to F-53 while giving the selection parameters you have to give special gl indicator, then click on process open items. here it will show you the retention amount with spl gl indicator. if its not showing it depends on the layout you have selected.
    check your layout desing.
    thanks & regards,

  • Retention Amount during vendor invocing

    Dear All,
    I have a doubt related to retention amount for vendors.
    Scenario is:
    Client is keeping certain amount as retention amount from the vendor bill. Now this amount is pre-decided in PO terms & confitions and the same is known to purchase department. But no such comminucation is made to accounts dept. Hence the person who is passing the payment entry is not aware of the amount to be retained. Client requirement is that, vendor invoice should be passed with the full invoice amount & during payment only the amount other than retention amount should be paid. But no manual intervention is required.
    e.g. Vendor invoice is INR1000
           Retention amount - INR 300( decided during PO)
           FB60 / MIRO passed with INR1000
           F-58 should automatically pick up INR 700 for payment    &  rest of the amount should remain in vendor cr with spl GL indicator.
    Can this be possible.
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards,
    Ajay Gupte

    Dear Ajay,
    You can use the Terms of payment to acheive this requirement.
    Go to Transaction code OBB8. Create a new terms of payment say Z001, which has the "Installment Payment" ticked.
    Now create two more terms of payment Z002 and Z003. Here mark the "Payment Block" (A or B) for the terms of payment Z003.
    Now go to OBB9, fill as below
    Z001----- 170-----Z002
    Z001--230-----Z003.
    Now at the PO stage, make sure that the terms of payment is Z001.
    At the stage of the invoice verification, the entry would be
    Expense A/c Dr 1000
    To Vendor A/c           700
    To Vendor A/c           300 ( This would be with a payment block)
    At the time of automatic payment, this Rs.300/- will not be selected unless we remove the payment block.

    Venkatesh

  • Configure Deferred Tax and retention amount in 4.6c

    Also please let me know is it possible in the said version.

    Hi Su,
       Thanks for the answer.
       But we already have code page 6200 setup and hence just need to add in language Thai.
       The problem now is we don't know what other solutions are available apart from MDMP? Even going from ambiguous code page 6200 to MDMP seems like not feasible(from your reply)? Do you know what are the consequences if MDMP is converted from blended codepage.
       Do you know of any way that all the languages could co-exist without going on MDMP?
       Thank you.

  • Retention Amount capturing in MIRO

    Dear All,
    My Client requirement is as below.
    While posting a Invoice via MIRO or F-43, the invoice need to be split into 2 lines , one line(part of the amount 80%) need to be paid within 15days and remaining 20% after 1year.
    I defined Installment payment terms for this anad assigned to Vendor master. It is posting two lines but my client says the second installment nedds to posted using aSPl GL indication (Retention defined) and in Fk10n the balance should be shown in Spl GL. 
    How is it possible. In payment terms i cannot ask to post to SPl Gl.
    regards
    Jaya

    hello,
    first you post the total invoice for 100%.  To retain 20% you go to f-51(vendor clearing) there you credit special GL with R in posting 39 and enter the amount 20% and select the process open items.  It will open vendor open items there you select the open item which was posted for 100%.  So two documents will generate.  One is with special GL indicator. And next one is with out special GL account. At the time of Payment in f-53 select the posted invoice document and the new doucment (with out specila indicator document). So the vendor will be paid for 80% only. Balance 20% will be laid in vendor open items.  So you can select the vendor open item whenever you want to pay the open items.
    regards

  • Retention - Seperate GL Account

    Hi,
    A billing document (invoice) is generated following the PR-PO process. The amount to be paid to the Vendor is 90% of the invoice amount immediately and the balance amount of 10% is retention and is to be paid only after satisfactory completion of the service, say 6 months. A payment term is created where the invoice is broken into separate line items - 90% and 10% and accordingly posted in Vendor account.
    Now the case is that, the amount is not paid thru SAP. The amount is passed on to the legacy system from where the payment takes place.
    The requirement is, the retention amount instead of going to Vendor account, need to go to a separate GL account. How can this be achieved in SAP?
    Please revert.
    Thanks,
    M.R.Srinivas

    Hi
    As far as my knowledge goes, there is no direct option for the same.
    We need an enhancement to take care of this.
    As all payments can be made only to Vendor / customer in standard SAP, suggest
    1. create another reconciliation GL a/c  called retention.
    2. configure a new Spl GL ID
    3. Create a new payment term for this
    4. Create a substitution for that line to change Posting Key and add this spl GL
    Hope this will help u

  • Deduction amount from the bill should hit reconciliation account.

    Hello Friends,
    In my current implementation scenario, The customer will deduct some amount from every invoiced amount as a retention amount.So net payable will be amount after deduction.
    Here in pricing if i create condition type for deduction then it will hit the GL account but not the reconciliation account.
    How to map this scenario?
    Thank you
    Regards!
    Sadanand.

    Hi friend,
    I'm sorry, for me retentions means taxes.
    One question, is crores the unit in the Indian numbering system for large amounts?
    One idea, as you tell me, a solution perhaps will be a rebate with the sign changed (in V/06). I haven't try never, because I haven't found this request never. You do the retention/provisions (when you do the invoice, so, do it in V/08) and when you do the settlement you can invoice the provision or retention with a debit memo.
    For rebates you can check SAP Note 410579 - FAQ: Rebate processing.
    I hope this helps you
    Regards

  • Pending Rentention amount payable to vendor

    Is any procedure or report where we can get the retention amount which is not paid to the vendor?

    Hi,
    Use FBL1N only - while posting Vendor Invoice system will automatically split line items as per our retention Process /configuration with Payment Block
    it will show in Vendor ledger FBL1N
