Hi,
If you view the F1 help for the field ZSCHF (default value for the payment blocking key) in OBB8 you will see the following
'When entering postings to a customer or vendor account for which the terms of payment key displayed has been entered in the master record, this blocking reason is proposed together with the terms of payment.
If you enter the terms of payment key later in the line item, the blocking reason originally entered has no effect.'
In other words, if you manually enter the payment terms in a invoice line item instead of allowing the system to take the terms from the vendor master, the payment block key and payment method will not be taken from OBB8.
Please, consider the following info about the Payment Block:
Block key used to block an open item or an account for payment transactions. The block key can be used as follows:
1. During automatic payment transactions, the block key affects open items if it is:
Stored in the master record or Entered in the document.
If you enter the block in the master record, the exception list will include all the open items for this account. The block keys '*' and '+' are of special importance and function as follows:
-If the * block key is entered in the master record, none of the items in this account are included in the automatic payment process.
-If the + block key is entered in the master record, only those items for which a payment method is explicitly defined are included in the automatic payment process.
-The "A" block key also has a special function: It is generally set automatically when a down payment is entered. For this reason, you should neither delete the "A", nor use it for other purposes.
A block key can be set or deleted during payment proposal processing if you select the option Change in payment proposal permitted.
2. The block key in the document will affect manual payments only if you have selected the Blocked for manual payments option for the block key. The block key you set in the master record has no effect on manual payments. However, it is possible to make system settings so that a warning is shown, explaining that this is the case. You do so by customizing message 671 in work area F5 in the message control.
3. You must select the Not changeable option for the block key that is relevant to payment release in financial accounting.
