Import- stage payment and VAT

[former_member742156]

Hi,

Is there a way Sap can manage stage payments? For example, we are importing goods with payments terms 20% before delivery, 50% on delivery and 30% month after delivery.

While one of solution can be to raise PR with 3 lines for each payment terms- it is doesn't work in our case as one delivery can have 50 different commodity codes so we have to raise PR on commodity level for customs and intrastats.

So we have to book in full amount when goods actually crossing border for it to appear on intrastate submission.

So how Sap can manage stage payments in this case? to allow payments before goods receipt against the PO?

Thanks
