Making vendor down payment at PO header level and not item level

[former_member221515]

Hi

I am making downpayment to vendor. I am using new functionality in EHP 4 for making downpayment through purchase order. When I run ME2DP for making downpayment, it asks for PO item number also.

But my requirement is to pay downpayment at PO header level and not PO item level.

Please let me know how can I do payment at PO header level.

Hi,

Down Payments will be shown at header level only But when we are entering those you need to Enter the PO Number along with Item Number also.

Dear All,

I am also facing the same problem. Though Advance is maintained in PO Header Level when we are trying to create  DP Request / DP system is asking line item mandatory. Suppose i have 2 line items  and maintain all the DP amount in first line item. I am making service entry for 2nd line item and bill for the second line item. Then in this case, the Down Payment clearing tab doesn't appear in MIRO. That means I am unable to adjust the advance for the line item though I have to adjust it.

Problem is that there are more than 300 lines items in PO/WO. Hence it becomes difficult to maintain advance for each line or the user is forced to maintain certain amount in line item..

Please help ..Its urgent

Regards,

Ganesh

Down Payments will be shown at header level only, but when we are entering them, you need to enter the PO no along with item number also.

Since when we settle this down payment during payment, system will treat this DP is for the full PO only.

There are more than 50 items in PO with different values. Like

Item 1: Rs.10000

Item 2: Rs.13200

Item 3: Rs. 9660

and so on...

I want give Rs.15000 as advance. So i will have to calculate manually the amount of advance that need to allocate to each item. Is my understanding correct?.

Or system will automatically divide advance amount at each item level?

Down Payments are always at header level only.

But when you make down payments, you just need to enter the first line item number atleast next to the PO no filed during posting.

No allocation to each item at all.

It means, all my advance will populate in one item only.
