Partial delivery of PO in 3rd party sales

[Former Member]

These are open-end questions frm a student in SAP SD..

1. Can the customer be invoiced if the vendor does a partial delivery of the customers order ? If so, how is it done & what are the procedure for the same ? Or shd we wait till the vendor delivers 100% of the order to raise the invoice on the customer ?

2. What is the account process in 3rd part sales ie a flow of a/c postings??

Hello Friend,

For Third Party Partial Deliveries you have make the changes in copy control.T.code VTFA Copying control: Sales document to billing document and choose the third party Item Category and in detail Billing Quantity change to D Delivered Quantity.

Jeslimen,

These will be the account posting in Third Party process :

The process of third party is :

1. Vendor delivers the goods to customer :

Customer Account : DR ( As customer has to Pay you )

Vendor Account : CR ( As you have to Pay customer)

2. You receipt goods virually :

during Goods Receipt

Stock Account - Dr

G/R I/R Account - Cr

3: You sent invoice to customer:

The following entries shall be passed

Customer Account Dr

Revenue Cr

You can always follow the rule : " DEBIT what Comes in CREDIT what Goes Out"

Thanks,

Dear jeslinem ,

Of course customer can be invoiced for the partial delivery. But for that you need to do setting in ship to party master data. i.e. Partial delivery allowed or not and if yes no. of maximum partial deliveries - in Shipping tab of Sales Area Data.

Vendor can deliver the material in partial delivery. GR can take place in MIGO based on the qty delivered, vendor will raise the bill against company that can be settled through MIRO and company can invoice the customer accordingly for the qty that have been delivered to him.

Same process will take place for the remaining qty.

I dont know about account process. you need to post in FI forum

Hope you would understand by this
