For normal assets, i think not possible to post down payment.

For AUC it is possible.

in account determination you have to give down payment account.

if you are procuring assets through Purchase order.

give purchase order number in the down payment screen.

Hi Ramki,

i under stand, but standard SAP there is no down payment functionality for Fixed assets.

do one thing,

same asset you create as a AUC first, then you post down payment transactins to that AUC Asset, once you receive invoice , you adjust the down payment,

finally you settele the AUC to Fixed asset.

i thnk this is teh best optin as of now.

if it ok. or not give reply other wise we will try other optons(we have to explor).

"In assign GL Accounts" (T.Code - AO90) , there is fields for

Down Pmnt - Acq & Down Pmnt Clg A/c , why it has given i think that is for Down Pmnt for Assets and the Indicator is "M"

Hi Ramki

As correctly said by Chandrasekar, you cannot make down payment to your Fixed Assets which are not fall under AUC Asset Class. The reason is that system calculates depreciation on DP also till you capitalise the asset.

For making down payment to AUC, there is a configuration involved. You need to assign TT Group 15 in AUC Asset Class through T Code OAYB.

Hope you are clear now.
