Clearing downpayment with restriction A during invoicing

[Former Member]

Dear experts,

I want to clearing a downpayment (6000 / 0020) that has origin in a downpayment request (6000 / 0010) and at this momento it have a restriction 'A' (can be clear in the next invoicing). I already add the downpayment (6000 / 0020) in R401 Spro - SAP utilities - Invoicing - invoice processing - item slection in invoicing - item selection in account maintainence / define sub item . But it's not clearing. I post it as a sub item and it shows as ACCINF.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

Can you please correct me if I'm not understanding your scenario correctly:

1. There is a down payment request (6000/0020) with clearing restriction 'A'.

2. You posted a payment. (6000/0010).

3. Now you do invoicing, but its not clearing the down payment request.

Is this correct?

Hi Ravi,

No, I made a mistake in the OP::

1. There is a down payment request (3000/0010) with clearing restriction 'A'.

2. You posted a payment. (3000/0020).

3. Now you do invoicing, but its not clearing the down payment 3000 / 0020.

And I already add the 3000 / 0020 to item selection in account maintainence / define sub item, but it's not clearing

Hi Rodolfo,

Try to remove the restriction 'A' from the down payment request through event R411 and see if that works

Hi VR,

It doesn't trigger that R411 event. I tried to revome it on R401 but it still don't work.

Hi Experts,

I changed the restriction 'A' to a restriction '8' and it work fine for the first time, but after that if a some amount remain in the down payment (example: -45.23) it doesn't get cleared in the next invoice. I change the restriction indicator in the remainig back to '8' and it work fine again.

Now the question is which is the las event of invoicing that I can use to set restriction '8' in the down payment?

Hello,

ist the problem that the clearing restriction 'A' isn't removed from DFKKOP during invoice or that the clearing restriction is removed, but no clearing occurs?

Best regards.

HI Christiane,

Sorry by the misexplain. This is the case:

- Somebody set down payment request 3000 / 0010

- When payment is done it turn in a down payment 3000 / 0020 with clearing restriction 'A'

- It doesn't clear with the next regular invoice.

- I change the configuration to have a down payment 3000 / 0020 with restriction '8'

- This result in a clearing in the next incoving, but if some credit remain in the down payment 3000 / 0020, the restiction '8' has been removed from DFKKOP and this will not allow clearing in future invoice.

- I set restriction '8' manually in this remaining credit in DFKKOP and it work fine.

So the new question is: Which event can I use to set this restriction '8' after the invoicing to the remaining credit in DFKKOP? or Should I set a job to do this during the night?

Rodolfo

Rodolfo:

My question then would be - what process are you trying to execute?

General process for a down payment is as follows:

Utility requests down payment (3000/0010)

Customer pays request (incoming payment)

Payment clears down payment request which automatically generates a held down payment posting (3000/0020).

as this is a held down payment, it should not be released until the full sale is complete. That is the purpose of the restriction code and the reason why you are not seeing a clearing.

If you want to clear immediately, then there seems to be no reason to use down payment.

Please clarify your business process. I think that there might be a gap between the functions, process and understanding.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the answer, I'm not trying to clear it immediately the down payment, that's the problem when I run the invoicing the down payment is not clearing. It seems I have all configured the wright way.
