Hello Friends,

I am trying to change SAP configuration such that the baseline date is determined using posting date. I want to find out when does this baseline date gets calculated (while creating PO T*(ME21N) or while doing GR (T*MIGO) or during invoice (T*MRER) ).

Thank you

ME21N - No accounting hence no baseline date is determined.

MIGO - Not meant to calculate the net due date, here the concept of baseline date is irrelevant.

MIRO - The settings from the payment terms in the purchasing organisation segment will come into place and determine your baseline date and calculate the net due date.

FB60 - The settings from the payment terms in the company code segment will come into place and determine your baseline date and calculate the net due date.

Have a look at the following note:-

  • Note 1885693 - T-code MIRO: Baseline Date is not changed while changing the Invoice Date

Hello Sir,

Since I have many payment terms that have Document date checked and cant change them all. So I  am searching for an include function which I can add into substitution rule or BaDi so that I could move the posting date entered in T*MRER to document date in order to calculate "baseline date" based on "posting date" that we enter in transaction MRER.

Thank you

Hi Jeetendar,

To consider the base line date as Posting date you need do the below settings in OBB8.

The payment terms which was entered from MM side would be default for MM documents.  At the time of GR and IR system takes the default Base line date as posting date. regarding PO there is no Posting date.

Hello Thomas and Inthiyaz,

I know about settings in OBB8. But I have lot of payment terms which have Document date marked/check-boxed for calculating baseline date.

So I am searching for an include function which I can add into substitution rule or BaDi so that I could move the posting date entered in T*MRER to document date.

So please let me know where and when is the baseline date calculated.

Thank you

Hi Jeetendar,

Not sure I understand your question: In payment terms configuration (OBB8), you can specify that the posting date should be used as baseline date. Alternative being document date, entry date or manually set date.


Purchase orders have no posting date so the system use the expected delivery date as baseline date. For goods and invoices receives, the system use the posting date as baseline date if configured as such in the payment term. 


Hope it is clear, if not please clarify your request.
