Down payment in sales order

[Liza_Nuj1]

Hello SAP team,

I would like to know if it is possible to manage down payment at header level in a sales order?

My client says that the business can have more than 50 lines items in a sales order. To ease their tasks, they are asking if it is possible to manage that at header level.

Please provide me your inputs. Thanks

@Liza_Nuj1 ,

are you able to achieve this requirement? If yes, can you explain how did you resolve this?

Hello Dinesh,

No i haven't achieved this requirement yet. My client creates sales orders manually.

I am still looking for a solution how to achieve this. What can you propose me?

Thanks

Here is my two cents: we use Function module to update the billing plan at header level. Check if any standard FM's available to create a SO with Billing plan value to be updated/

Dear Dinesh, Thank you for your message. I read about the below module function which is used to update the billing plan at header level in a Sales Order: -

BILLING_SCHEDULE_SAVE

My client issue is that they do not want to create a billing plan per line item in case they have 50-line items. They would like to manage billing plan at header level like for example a 10% downpayment for line item 10 and with another 20% downpayment for line item 30. This information must automatically be updated at line-item levels. How can this be done?

Thanks.

Hi Liz, are going to create sales order manually? If yes, it's not possible to split the values without knowing the values of each of the line items. What we do in our project, we have created a custom FM to create a SO, and in that FM you enter the % of downpayment you want specific for each line item along with the Header Billing plan.

Without checking your system, it is difficult to assist you.  Did you check by clicking the 'Analysis' from condition tab which would show as to why, the value is zero ?

May be you can consider the access sequence at header level like Sales Org / Sold-To / Doc type

Thanks for your input.

I was able to able a billing plan type to my sales document type. However here, i have a net value of 0. Why is that? 

This is my sales order at header level:

How does the net value of the header billing plan work?

Thanks
