Usage of field VBEL2 (sales document) in customer down payments (F-37 or F-29)

Hello Experts
I need to know what is the point of field VBEL2 (sales document) while creating a customer down payments in tcodes F-37 or F-29. I did some tests in my client and still can't come up with the solution.
I thought that somehow this field was used to link the downpayment with the invoice so that you can see them grouped in customer clearing (F-32), but that was not the case.
Then I did a whole invoice cycle like this:
1. Created sales order in tx VA01
2. Posted customer down payment request in tx F-37. I gave VBEL2 field the sales order number I got in step 1.
3. Registered customer down payment in F-29
4. Posted outbound delivery in Tx. VL01N and gave sales order from step 1.
5. Posted invoice from outbound delivery from step 4.
After this I checked in F-32, or document flow and sales order to see any relation and couldn't find any.
Can anyone explain what is this field for? Or is this only a reference field for reports.
Thanks

Hi
I know that but the Sales Document filed is not there in that T.code. Thats the problem.

CO-PA Value Field from Sales Document: Item Data

Hi,
I need to see a field from sales document.
This field is "volume" and it is in table VBAP, field VOLUM.
Can any body give a hint how should I configure the system to get data on a value field if I want to run a report?
Thanks

Try creating a characteristic from VBAP. KEA5 is the tcode. Create a new characteristics from table VBAP and pick VOLUM. Then it will be availble for u in COPA.

Customer Down payment clearing during sales order

now, i want to clear this down payment along with sales order.
ex :
day 1 : customer pay advance 10
day 5 : customer buy item with amount 80 (cash sales)
can we deduce by down payment 10 during invoicing process then receipt 70 only.

Customer Down Payment w.r.t sales order only

Q1- We are posting Customer Down payment w.r.t Sales order number with line item number. How come we enter sales order number only without line item number at the time of down payment.
Q2- After the down payment posting F-29 , how its possible to change the line item of sales order number?

Hi,
For this down payment invoice,we are using billing plan at the sales document item level.
Goto the T.Code "VA02".Enter the sales order number.Enter.
Goto Item details.Goto billing plan tab.Remove the billing block for the down payment item.And maintain the billing block for other items.
Goto the T.Code "VF01" and enter the sales order number.It will take that down payment item.
Save.
Next step is to make payment.It can be done either by using the T.Code "F-28" by selecting the "Special G/L indicator" as "F" or by using the T.Code "F-29" too.
After creating the down payment,we can change item quantity and price too.But you cannot change the down payment item in billing plan.

Krishna.

Vendor/Customer Down Payment document parking

Hi sirs,
I want to park the Vendor down payment and customer down payment document with one user ID and afterwards I want to post the document with other user ID. Is it possible in SAP.
What type of documents can be parked and posted in SAP through another user ID and with the same user ID.
BSR

Hi BSR,
Down payment document can be park but after parking that document will automatically flow to the respective authorized person for getting approval and posting. As parking doc follow a predefined workflow path.
In that workflow path if you have mention next approver is the same user id then u can but practically it is not correct(why a person will Park with same user id and post it with the same user id itu2019s a wasting of time ) but logically u can make it possible by inserting same user id in workflow as approver.
Thanks n Regards

Customer Down Payment request inclusive of Tax

Hello SAP Experts,
I have following requirement for down payment request scenario.
Current AS-IS situation
Sales order (VA01) ---> Prepayment Order ( VA01) --> Down payment request / Down payment Invoice ( VF01) --> accounting document of VF01
100 Rs. Net 100 Rs. Net 100 Rs. Net
20 Rs. VAT ------> 20 Rs. VAT ---------> 20 Rs. VAT ---> 100 Rs.
in this accounting document entry is happening as noted item with
DR. Customer Account ( net amount without Tax) 100
.so, after this step, I can see in FBL5N as 100 Rs. as open item for customer
TO BE Scenario
my user needs that at this step, posting should be
Dr Customer A/C - 120
Cr. customer down payment - 100
Cr. Tax - 20
can you please suggest and give your input in order to how can we achieve this.
Thank you for your input.
Regards,

Hello Jignesh,
Just a design level suggestion for your requirement.
You are looking to have a system that calculates tax during DP invoice.
Create a new Item category which has 'Billing Plan' tab enabled at Item level. Check with Abap'er to bring a custom field (check box) saying 'Tax on down payment'. Here the posting schema needs to be defined (like which account needs to be used for tax posting and its PK and D/H indicator and use some FM for tax calculation and check for zero balancing, etc.,.)
Then whenever the check box is ticked, and the Billing is performed for the DP invoice, then enable the system to calculate tax amount based on the tax classification & tax defined for the SO using the so called code written in routine or user exit. Now, the tax calculation can be achieved.
This is purely a custom suggestion (nothing to do with standard SAP). Sorry i couldnt able to provide much of a technical solution for your requirement . But still this is achievable and i worked some years back on the same.

Customer Down Payment Configuration

Hi All,
Can any one guide me how to configure customer down payment.
I have to raise the invoice for down payment to customer for specfic %age out of total order value. Please guide at earliest. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Mahendra

Dear Mahendra
The following Customizing settings have to be made for down payment processing:
Settings for the billing plan - To activate the billing plan function, maintain the materials, for which you wish to process down payments, with item category group 0005 (milestone billing). This gives the item type TAO via item type determination. The item type TAO calls up the billing plan function.
You need to implement the following activities in the billing plan for down payments:
Maintain deadline category - This determines the billing rule (percentage or value down payment) for the down payment request. The system assigns billing type FAZ (payment request) defined in the standard system with billing category P. (For the billing type FAZ there is the cancellation billing document type FAS in the standard system).
Maintain the deadline proposal - Use the down payments that are due for the proposed deadlines.
Maintaining a Pricing Procedure with the Condition Type AZWR:
In the standard system the condition type AZWR is delivered for the down payment value already provided but which has not yet been calculated. You must include this condition type in the relevant pricing procedure before output tax.
Enter condition 2 (item with pricing) and the calculation formula 48 (down payment clearing value must not be bigger than the item value) for the condition type AZWR.
Before the condition AZWR you can create a subtotal with the base value calculation formula 2 (net value). If the condition AZWR is changed manually, you can get information on the original system proposal from the subtotal.
Maintain the printing indicator - The pricing procedure can not be marked as a transaction-specific pricing procedure (field Spec.proc.) The condition type AZWR has the calculation type B (fixed amount) and the condition category E (down payment request / clearing).
Maintaining the Billing Document - In the standard system there is the billing type FAZ (down payment request) and the billing type FAS for canceling . The down payment is controlled using the billing category P of the billing type. A billing type becomes a down payment request when the billing category P is assigned. You have to maintain blocking reason 02 (complete confirmation missing) for the billing documents and assign it to billing type FAZ.
Copying control - Copying requirement 20 must be entered in copying control at item level for the down payment request. In the standard system the order type TA for copying control is set up according to the billing type FAZ for the item category TAO.
Copying requirement 23 must be entered in copying control at item level for down payment clearing. In the standard system the order type TA for copying control is set up according to the billing type F2 for the item category TAO.
Financial Accounting settings - A prerequisite for down payment processing is that the account is assigned to the underlying sales document. To do this, change the field status settings in Customizing as follows:
Set reconciliation accounts (transaction OBXR) - For the `received down payments' and `down payment requests' from
the G/L accounts you have selected, you should assign the field status definition G031.
Maintain accounting configuration (transaction OBXB) - For the down payments (posting key ANZ in the standard system) and the output tax clearing (posting key MVA in the standard system), you must maintain the posting key.
You must also carry out a G/L account number assignment for the tax account.
Maintain the posting key (transaction OB41) - For posting key 19, set the sales order as an optional field !!!
Maintain the field status definition (transaction OB14) - For field status variant 0001, field status group G031, set the
sales order as an optional field !!!
Assign the company code to the field status variants (transaction OBC5)

Clearing Customer down payment for down payment amount not equal to Customer Invoice amount

Dear All,
               Below process are posting Customer transaction directly via FI without SD cycle.
            Customer down payment = 102 INR
            Customer Invoice = 103 INR
While doing Customer clearing w.r.t Invoice system has cleared the down payment document but posted an open item in Customer account with clearing document number of value Rs 102 .
Concern:-
               1) How 1 INR difference will be countered , via receipt payment from customer from bank account ?
               2) In case we have defined tolerance limit of 5% for Customer and this come to be > 1 INR ,does SAP provide clearing Customer items
                   automatically via any Standard Customer clearing process based on rule defined ?
Pls suggest
Regards

Hi,
the information of the exchange rates used for down payments, is
stored in table TCURR ( exchange rates)
For the request down payment the actual exchange rate of table TCURR
or the rate of document header is taken.
When this down payment request is payed, also the exchange rate of
the actual day (TCURR) is taken.
That´s why the amount in the bank posting in local currency result
from translating the foreign currency amount at the current rate,
instead of resulting from the total of the local currency amounts
from the settled items.

F-29 Customer down payment, error, system ask for vendor account

Hello,
When I enter customer down payment through F-29 I receive message F5243 'Account type K is not defined for document type DZ'.
If I use other document type, I receive the same message. I DO NOT NEED ACCOUNT TYPE 'VENDOR' HERE. (When I choose with F4 I receive search for CUSTOMER, and special GL also for CUSTOMER.)
If I change that (and allow acct type 'K'), system issue message F5104 'Vendor not created in CoCode'.
If, for example I have the same number for vendor and customer (SAME NUMBER, NOT THE SAME COMPANY), system allows me to go further, but takes information for 'Vendor down payment' (made in Customizing).
I would like to point that there is no link in master date between customer and vendor account.
My only clue is that something is wrong with this transaction (there is no SAP note for this exact problem, and all other posts on the same subject here on SDN are not resolved)
Maybe someone has idea about connection of this tcode with logistic...
PLEASE HELP

Hi Amina,
For that u check weather u assign vendor special gl account to customer reconcile account in OBXR.
Select special gl type D in OBXR and give the reconcilation account of customer and special gl account

Customer Down Payment

Dear Gurus,
Have a question on Customer Down Payment.
We first create a request, next when the Down Payment is received then we clear the request against the payment received. When the invoice is raised can we do automatic clearing of the Down Payment with the Invoice?
If yes, what would be the process... do we have to clear the Down Payment first manually and then we do automatic clearing?
Do let me know this, thanks in advance.
regards,
Raj

Raj,

1. Down Payment Request ( F-37 - Need to post it to Alternative Reconciliation Account YYYYY - not part of the double-entry bookkeeping)

4. Down Payment Clearing -( F-39)
5.Payment and Clearing
