Different payment terms at items level

[Former Member]

Dear Gurus ,

We have scenario that in single sales order there will be different payment terms at item level .

When we perform the billing against that sales order , SAP splits the invoice into two different document .

My requirement is to avoid the splitting . And also in customer acoount there should be two line items generated .

Becuase in one payment terms , there is applicabilty of discount and other does not have discount .

Two different payment terms are as follows : -

1) 15 % discount within 15 days duer net

2) 15 days due net .

Suitable points will be rewarded .

Thanks and Rgds

Hi,

If the header data of the order is diifferent, then the invoice will split.

Pls check if the header data is different.

Also check the routines in copy control from Order to billing.(VTFA)

Dear Umesh ,

Thanks for response .

I have tried through rountine . But not able to solve .

Further as per your solution , it will call for new material discount condition type . I don't how to link the payment terms with condition type .

Our requirement is it should appear in the customer line items.

Pls provide any other possible solution which can worked out .

Thanks & Rgds

Hi Anchal,

You need to add a new customer/material discount condition

type, and while maintaining the condition records for this ,you can enter these payment terms ,"15 days due net" in the paymt terms field.

Also this discount is applicable ONLY if the paymet terms maintained are met.

Hence cross-check whether the payment date

is as per your payment terms using a ABAP enhancement.

This method will serve your purpose.

Thanks ,

Hi Anchal,

Since for any Invoice, the items should have same payment terms along with same

Invoice date and Bill-to party, in your case it will lead to a Invoice split .

U have 2 payment terms as

1) 15 % discount within 15 days due net

2) 15 days due net

Change the first one to "15 days due net " so that both will be same and there will be Only one

Invoice, and work out a method to adjust the 15 % discount on this item as material discount.

Thanks ,

Try this:

1. Transaction: VOFM > Data Transfer > Billing Documents

2. Copy Data Transfer Routine 001 to 9## (or Modify 001 which I do not

recommend). This will require a developer key.

3. Enter "CLEAR VBRK-REGIO" after "VBRK-ZUKRI = ZUK"

4. Save and Activate routine.

5. If 9## is created, assign accordingly in VTFA. (Field Data VBRK/VBRP)

Hope it helps. Reward points if the answer is helpful.

hello, friend.

entering different payment terms at item level will lead to invoice split, unfortunately. you can try if you can have a material discount with applicable payment terms as key.

however, i will try using different baseline dates if this can be a workaround.

regards.

p.s.

fixed value dates or anything that will change terms will still cause split.
