Default of Baseline Date to Entry Date (Billing --> Release to Accounting)

[Former Member]

Dear all,

We have a following scenario.

In OBB8 u2013 Payment Terms, we have maintained the Payment Term with Default Baseline Date as the Entry Date and the same is attached to Customer in Sales Area à Billing Document tab.

The same Payment Term gets defaulted to Order à Billing document.

However, when Accounting Document is generated by using Release to Accounting option, the Baseline date is still taken as Billing Date (Posting Date).

Is this a SAP STD System behavior?

I also thought of using USER EXIT for the same.

1 . USEREXIT_FILL_VBRK_VBRP or

2 . SDVFX004 or

3. SDVFX008

However, I would prefer to go with customizing than user exit.

May I know the best option?

Best regards,

Hello,

I think This is a standard SAP behaviour, system will take billing date. This billing date gets copied from the actual goods issue date in the delivery document. Payment date is considered when actual payment is done.

I think, when release to accounting is done, your accounting document status will be not cleared. Finance enters the actual finance payment thru transaction F-22. At that moment, payment date is considered.
