Terms of payment-CMR

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Why terms of payment field is given company code tab & sales area data tab in CMR ?

Why do give terms of payment differently ?

Hi,

The terms of payment field has been provided in company code data & sales area data is because they can have different entries in both places. The reason for having at both the places is -- it is the business transaction {if it is created and assigned to the sales document types} which will decide from where terms of payment has to be picked up.

I haven't come across the situation wherein CMR has different terms of payment at both the places, so I can't comment much on that.

Hope this will help.

Interesting question!

If the document is created through SD transactions then payment terms will flow from sales view of customer master.

If the document is created directly through FI transactions, then probably payment terms will flow from company code view of customer master.

Normally, the payment terms in sales view and company code view will be same.
