Hi Honey,

I think the error message (EPS 314) that you are getting is because of the reason that the payment scheme that you are trying to cancel contains lines where the first payment due date comes before the start date of the sample line.

This scenario normally happens when you perform a move-out for a contract that has payment scheme. When you do this, a sample line is created in which the first due date falls one day before the start date of the sample line. The line is deactivated by the move-out.

If the move-out is reversed, however, the line becomes active. If you then try to change the line, the system does not allow you to do so, and issues EPS 314 ("Internal error: First pay date of pay scheme &1, line &2 is before start").

As per Standard SAP functionality, during cancellation of payment scheme, depending on the sequence of the end date and the first payment date, the system behaves in the following way-

(a) If the end date lies before the first payment date of the payment scheme, the payment scheme is

deleted from the database. If you have already created statistical requests for this payment scheme,

they are cleared.

(b) If the end date lies after the first payment date of the payment scheme, the system executes the

following actions:

     1.) The payment scheme sample line that is active on the end date is prorated so that its end

          date is the same as the end date of the payment scheme. A new sample line is created for

          the part of the sample line that comes after the end date.

     2.) All payment scheme sample lines with a start date that comes after the end date are

          deactivated.

     3.) The end date and, if necessary, the deactivation reason are entered in the payment scheme

          header data.

     4.) All statistical requests with due dates that lie after the end date are cleared. 

Payment schemes that are ended this way remain active until the end date. You can either change

the payment scheme manually or during creation of an interim or periodic bill. You can also create

statistical requests for this payment scheme. You can change the end date again as long as the

new date comes before the end date that was entered previously.

Hope it helps....

Thanks,

Amlan
