Hi,

You can use standard functionality for Downpayment Billing.

1.The advance payment is put in sales order via condition types AZFP or AZWR

2.The billing is done via a Billing plan

3. Standard billing type for Downpayments is FAZ

Dear Friend,

Thanks a lot for quick reply.

you mean to say in my existing pricing procedure i have to add condition type AZFP or AZWR which is header condition and

i can add down payment amount plus existing customer order qty and all

but after that order - delivery i have to go for billing but hence here billing type is different then what should be the transaction flow???

or down payment process should handle separately like separate order type--and billing type because most of the cases pricing condition will be mandatory so there we should have separate pricing procedure

please guide for this small doubt

Based on your requirement,

> what setting required w.r.t. Billing plan ??

What kind of billing plan is relevant for your business process

-Milestone (01)

-Periodic (02)

> and which Item category we have to assign to OR

-TAO, for Milestone

- For Periodic (01) assign billing plan 02 in at sales doc type OR.

> and respective copy control for FAZ with item category .

Standard copying control is available for OR - FAZ in Copy Ctrl for Sales to Bill doc (use tcode: VTFA).

> and tell me please what are the transaction flow steps we have to follow in above scenario?

> 1)order---2)delivery---3) invoice (F2) and again from 4) OR --invoice (FAZ)

1) Sales order (va01)

2) Down-payment invoice with ref to sales order(vf01)

3) Delv with ref to Sales order (vl01n)

4) Final invoice with ref delv doc(vf01)
