Payment Terms (from condition record) not copying to PO

[former_member326609]

We have a vendor master created in our Purch Org 1000. This Purch Org has Payment Terms = A.  We also have an Info Record for a vendor/material/purch org/plant that has Conditions in it based on a data rage.  We use these conditions to change prices each month.  When we create a PO, these prices get copied into the PO correctly.  In the Condition, if we selection additional data for the condition type PB00, we can also enter Terms of Payment here.  We want this to be copied to the PO also, however the only payment we can get to copy to the PO is from the vendor master.

We need this to copy as we have different payment terms for different materials for the same vendor.

Any thoughts?

Hi

In every business scenario payment term vary vendor to vendor instead of material to material. So at the time of PO creation payment term will be carried from VM at header level only. If you have different payment term for different material then create separate PO for each material.

According to OSS note 119907 - Terms of payment by means of conditions w/ scales  it is possible to use condition records to determine the terms of payment.

I never did it, nor do I know if that works in SD only or how it is supposed to work at all.

But eventually this note gives you a starting point for investigation

Applied the note and through debugging we can see it getting to the logic where it gets the payment terms from the condition record, however it never writes it to the PO header.

It uses pricing from the condition record but it won't copy the payment terms.

Thanks for your assistance.

Hi,

Payment Term is available in your PO header level, so you can have only one Payment Term for your PO with items in it with all purchasing conditions. But in your case of different Payment Term- you can go for Vendor subrange.

You said you have different payment term for different material for same vendor.

I doubt it is logical or not for your organization.

What if your organization wants to order two material in same purchase order ?

In Standard SAP, system will always copy the payment term from vendor master. You can use the facility of vendor sub range. But you may also face some problem according to this KBA document 2062554 - Payment terms for Vendor subrange determined incorrectly

Hi Bob

Payment terms are applicable for whole purchase order put in place and it have legal binding. Payment terms are not available at item level. If you really need to have different payment terms, I think you have to create different PO for each different payment term.

Thanks,

Payment term determination in PO is based on priority, 1st is through Vendor master, if not in VM then it checks PIR. if payment term from PIR to be picked then remove the Payment term in Vendor master or do a bypass through custom code.
