Hi:

Which are the main differences? I need to pay in advance to my supplier 100% of the invoice, the purchase invoice would be received one month later. How can i link them? And what about the payment, how can i remember easily that invoices are missing when the account balance is = 0 because the payment is done.

Best regards,

Alberto.

Hello Alberto Mendez

Please refer to below link for down payment info.:

You can create an AP Reserve Invoice based on a PO.

This will create a Journal Entry and close the PO.

Then you can make an Outgoing Payment based on the AP Res.Invoice, and when you actually receive the Item, you can create a GRPO based on the AP Reserve Invoice.

Hope it helps.

Hi,

There is a business need for companies to issue/receive Invoices including tax (or

VAT) for Down Payments made or received. These Invoices can then be cleared with

partial or final Invoices. Companies can record a Down Payment received in SAP

Business One by creating a Payment not based on an Invoice. However, due to legal

requirements in certain countries the recording of a Down Payment requires an Invoice

or a billing document.

Down Payment Request and Down Payment Invoice documents have their own numbering series. The Down Payment Invoice

resembles a regular Invoice and the Down Payment Request resembles a Sales

Quotation. The user may define a different series under Invoices to be used in the

Down Payment document. Neither of these two documents affects the On Hand stock

or the stock valuation. They can be of Items or Service type.

The process for them are:

Down Payment Invoice>Payment of Down Payment Invoice >Regular Invoice> Payment of Regular Invoice.

Down Payment Request>Payment of Down Payment Request > Regular Invoice >Payment of Regular Invoice and Clearing of Down Payment.

For the invoice paid, you can find a Payment Means icon from Invoice window, click on it, there is payment information and a link for it.

Hope this helps,
