Payment term

[Former Member]

Hello experts,

Need your suggestion on how to achieve the below requirement in SAP and how the process would work as a result. This need to integrate with FI too

1. Customer pays 30% as advance

2. 60% at the time of shipment

3. 10% after receipt of goods

Your help would be rewarded with points.

Hi UV

There is a installment payment term functionality. Its SAP standard functionality.

IMG task Define Terms of Payment for Installment payments

It will meet your requirement.

Thanks

Hi

create four payment terms

first payment term as an Instalment payment term ( say 'A')

Second as normal payment term for 30 % with due date as you like ( say 'X' )

third as normal payment term for 60% with due date as you like ( say 'Y')

fourth as normal payment term for 10% with due date as you like ( say 'Z' )

Now in OBB9, attach these normal three payment terms to Instalment payment term like

A 1st instalment 30% to X

A 2nd instalment 60% to Y

A 3rd instalment 10% to Z

hope this is helpful

Hello all,

Thanks for your responses. But it would be more helpful if we can walk thru the process as Zaid did. His explanation was based on FI side but I would like the same on SD side. Could you help?

At the time of order, the customer pays 30% and we need to send an invoice (proforma is fine) immediately. Likewise, we need separate invoice for each installment and the final invoice should show only the pending amount.

Also, is it possible to block the process at each stage of installment with an override function as in credit management. The whole process need not be achieved using payment terms it could be any other custom solution.

Thanks

Hello you could use down payment.

Example of down payment, below example is dealing with 2 steps, you could probably use residual item to get the 3rd split.

Please assign points as a way of thanking.
