SD Down payment clearing against final invoice in SAP FICA

[Former Member]

Hi All,

In continuation of the discussion in the below thread:

https://archive.sap.com/discussions/thread/1699926

I had generated down payment request from Sales order in to SAP FICA. It is posted with statistical key "A". We had received down payment and it is cleared with request. When SD final invoice is generated. We have two open items one down payment (credit amount) and the other final bill. We were unable to do clearing these two documents.

Request your help on this at the earliest.

Regards,

Resolved the issue. Down payment is getting cleared with the final invoice. Issue is that the tax clearing account was not maintained with correct one in the posting area 0020.

Thank you.

My expectation here is any of the two options below:

1. Down payment should get cleared automatically during final billing from SD. - Which is not happening

2. System should allow for clearing. - When I go to FP06, I'm unable to see down payment amount. So unable to clear it.

I'm trying to understand which is the correct process and what should be done to solve the issue.
