Net due date change from bill of lading date

Hello,

I have the following situation and I hope someone could support,

Payment terms are 30 days from bill of lading date, however the bill of lading is usually issued 2 weeks later than the billing date of the invoice.
Its possible to automate that the net due date of an invoice is automatically updated once the bill of lading is populated in SAP?

With some dates for further explanation,
An invoice is issued today (billing date 12th of Sept 24) under the terms, 30 days from Bill of Lading.
The PTs customizing currently consider,
Doc due date = 12th of Sept 24
Net due date = 12th of Oct 24

However, bill of lading from the previous shipment is issued the 23th of Sept 24 (11 days after the doc. date). Once the bill of lading date is updated on SAP, there is no option that the net due of the invoice would consider the 23th of Sept as starting point to count the 30 days?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

As per my knowledge it is not possible to update due date based on BL date, payment terms
facilitate 4 dates as baseline date and in that no option to customized date.

As per your scenario in invoice document maybe you do not print due date, if it the case
then contact to abaper and develop a new aging report. Where you calculate the date
based on BL date with using payment terms days.

Hi Raju,

Thank you for the answer and taking your time reviewing my case.
I understand what you mean by 4 scenarios at the time of the Payment Term customizing and Bill of Lading is not one of day, that´s totally true and didn´t think on that.
As well, your guess is right as we don´t print the invoice with a fixed net due date but whit a description of the terms.

Thank you once again.

Atte,
