S_ALR_87013536 report on downpayment

[Former Member]

Hello Experts

In our project 'Project cash management is not is activated.

And i would like to use the report S_ALR_87013536.

Currently the report does not show any downpayment values.

Is this possible to view without activating the above?

Please guide.

Thanks and regards

Hi Sandeep,

If your requirement is only to view the down payments then you need not activate 'Proj Cash Management'. Down Payments are recorded on projects even without 'Proj Cash Management' active.

However, ensure that in Special GL transaction for posting downpayments, downpayment should be made with reference to the WBSE/NWA (normally this assignment would be copied automatically from the Purchase order entered)

• Downpayments will not get added to the assigned value

• They will be recognised as cost and will be settled to AUC. However system won't allow to settle from AUC to Final asset till the Down Payment is cleared.

• You may have to do additional configuration as below:

SPRO=>Project System=>Cost=>Actual Costs and Forecast=>Update Down Payments=>Define default cost elements for down payments

Hi Ravi,

Firstly thanks for your response.

First of all i do not have much idea on this downpayment part.

I have checked the PO, the WBS elements are assigned to this and the downpayment values are also displayed.

As you said i checked the cost element assignmet in the SPRO..that is also in place.

I am not able figure out what exactly has to be done,

Can you please help.

thanks and regards
