Payment terms block at MIRO/FB60

[Former Member]

Hi

I want to block the payment terms at MIRO level so that the payment terms are automatically derieved from the PO. I have made the changes to the posting key 31 and at MIRO level, it is working fine now.

However, when i try doing FB60, the payment terms are not picked from the master while doing FB60 and since the payment terms have a block for posting key 31, hence, we cannot enter the payment terms here. Hence, the payment terms are not being considered at FB60 and the payment is showing as due since day 1.

1) Why are the payment terms not being picked up at FB60 from the master record?

2) What is the alternative if I want the payment terms to be blocked at MIRO but changeble at FB60 level?

Thxs in advance.

Hi

Thxs a lot for ur reply.....you are absolutely correct that the Pymt terms of the Purchasing tab will not affect at FB60 level. However, actually at posting key 31 level, i have blocked the payment terms relating to FI and not Purchasing. Where can i find the setting to block the payment terms at the Purchaing level? I m sure there is an account assignment somewhr to block the same at MIRO level. Can u plzz help me find it?

Thxs a lot...

Hi,

I am not sure what you are asking?

the payment terms that affect MIRO are on the PO header but these are defaulted from the vendor master record purchasing data screen.

Hi,

remember that there are TWO payment terms fields on the vendor master.

One is used by POs and the other is used for postings that do not involve a PO.

You should check the payment terms on the company code data of the vendor and make sure that these are correct, the payment terms on the Purchasing Org data are NOT used by FI postings unless you are using MIRO with reference to a PO.
