Missing Payment Difference Reason for Down Payment Invoice

[former_member200567]

Dear experts,

In creating Bank Payment Advice,

We can see all the Payment Difference Reasons in the drop down list when we select Invoice.

1. Agreed settlement

2. Taxes

3. Cash discount

4. Currency exchange difference

5. Insolvency

But we can only see one Payment Difference Reason when we select Down payment Request.

4. Currency exchange difference.

Please advise.

Best Regards

Fred

Hi Fred,

I think, I know, what is your issue. I explain you, how you would do this.

Let me use the check as payment method to avoid additional steps.

Your local currency is USD.

You have a downpayment request over 150,-EUR (which equals in your system 195,-USD).

Now you receive a check over 167,-USD (as the exchange rate changes).

If you now assign the downpayment request to the incoming check, you see a difference of 28USD. For this difference you can select the payment difference reason "97 - Currency exchange differences".

Payment difference reason is only available, if the payment and the document currency are not equal.

Please let me know, if you have questions.

Best regards

Marlene

HI Marlene,

Thanks.

But if I select Invoice, I can see all the Payment Difference Reasons even if the currencies are different.

When I select Down payment request, I can only see 4. Currency exchange difference. even the currencies are the same.

Hi Fred,

seems I did miss the lines.

Okay - for Down Payments we assume that you pay a certain amount, no differences in the amount.

There is also no cash discount or tax for a down payment. So there is no need to select this. (You might discuss that sometimes there are cash discounts on downpayments, but this we do not support).

Only exception: currency exchange differences. That they always appear seems like an error - I follow up. Thanks for the comment.

Best regards and thanks
