Vendor Waives Charge after we added AP Invoice

[jane_liang]

Hi all,

Our vendor waived the AP invoice charge after we added the AP invoice.

How do we reflect the waived charge in SAP and process the $0 payment to close the AP invoice?

Thanks,

Jane

If the invoice is a service invoice, you can process a credit note to reverse the charge. If it is an item based invoice, and you still retain the item, then a service based credit note is still appropriate, just select a GL account to post the credit to.

Can I show the waived charge as a discount in the outgoing payment?

I tried to process an outgoing payment and enter 100% discount but I get the following error.

Discount amount is greater than the balance due...

Is this possible?

Hi Jane,

the message indicates that in your localisation the discount applies to the net value of the document only. Hence the only way to nullify & have the tax in order is to create a service type credit memo for the net amount & the appropriate tax rate. Please check with the accountant what account to use in the CM. You then manually reconcile the 2 documents.

All the best,

Kerstin

Hi Kerstin,

We don't have tax. Is there a way to get around it and indicate the discount through the payment window?

Thanks for your help.

For this transaction, you could only get it done by credit memo as all other members suggested. The discount will only apply if it is not 100%.

Thanks,
