Can the payment terms can be changed at item and header level in the sales oder if the order has got the subsequent documents like delivery and invoice.
Appreciate your call on this issue. I will try with that userexit.
1- End user can modify payment term in sales order even though corresponding invoice has been billed causing different payment terms used.
2- Payment term can be vary in header level and item level in SO.
Therefore, it is highly needed to control and ensure that payment term populated in invoice are checked with payment term in SO before releasing and printing invoice. Also, to ensure that changes in SO are not allowed after invoice is billed.
On your second issue, we can control change in item datas compared to header datas but this will be applicable to all datas in line items.
If you want, you can implement this control by going to VOV7 where for your item category, there is s a field "Business Item". If you untick this, no item level datas can be changed but as I said, you can change at header level even if subsequent document exists. So it is better to implement this control in your existing routine in copy control VTFL in case of delivery related billing and VTFA in case of order related billing.
Let say if we have two line items. If the check box Business Item in VOV7 has been uncheked, then I think if we want to have two different payment terms in the two line items, we will not be able to assign.
Welcome advices.
Sorry for wrong spelling of your name G. Lakshmipathi.
Yes you cannot change any datas at item level if you untick the field Business Item in VOV7. But I feel, this will not suit your requirement where you need to control only for a particular field in which case, user exit is the best option.
At the header level, yes you can always change even if you have subsequent documents but for item level, it can be changed which depends on your IMG / copy control settings.
