Payment term in PO to be picked from Payt trans a/c of Vendor Master

[Former Member]

Hi ,

In standard scenario Payment Term in Purchase Order is automatically picked up from Purchasing data of Vendor Master.

Our requirement is Payment Term in Purchase Order should get picked up from Payment Transaction view of vendor master rather than from Purchasing data of Vendor Master.

Is there any user exit or customization to achieve this.

Please help.

Regds,

there are payment terms at comapny code level AND purchasing org level, because you may get vendors for which you dont need purchasing views, such as customs or restaurants, where you never place a purchase order at. And other vendors like goods suppliers may never need company code views because you will never pay them.

So each view serves its own purpose.

It is not possible to just ignore maintenance at one level and get the payment term for an other organisation.

Especially as you can have several purchasing organisations within one company (if you purchasing wants to differentiate purchases of direct material from MRO purchasing) or you have one purchasing org for several company codes.

And not always is the payment term equal then.

If you are certain that the company code payment term is always equal to purchasing org payment term, then copy it over with mass maintenance and everything is fine.

There seems to be mismatch the way you think and the SAP does process.

Why you want to do that?

Is it the you want to process PO, later on change the decided terms during payment.

I am sure it can't be.

Payment terms generally flow from purchase organisation data of vendor master only.

but if u want from company code level, i think its possible through user exit and make a validation for field
