Down payment chains (new)

Use

As of SAP R/3 Enterprise Extension 2.0 (EA_APPL200), the Down Payment Chains (FI-AF-DPC) component provides you with a means for managing down payment chains. Financial transactions such as advance payments, down payments and invoices, which logically belong together within a specific contract, need to be cleared against each other. All these accounting documents are brought together in a down payment chain.

The following functions are available to you:

  • Several transactions are brought together in a down payment chain. For example, one down payment chain can consist of several partial invoices, the final invoice and corrections. Partial invoices can be either invoices (affecting net income), or down payment requests (affecting net income). If the partial invoice is an invoice, you can enter an advance payment at the outset.
  • In the transactions for the down payment chain you can include:
  • Security retention amounts for final invoices, which affect payment after a certain period of time has elapsed

  • Special retention amounts which have arisen because of quality defects or incorrect invoicing

  • Additional costs

  • The application offers you a user-friendly working environment and a clear and structured display of the down payment chains. You can enter and post data, monitor payables and receivables and gain information on current and future payment transactions.
  • In principle, debit-side and credit-side down payment chains have the same structure. This guarantees consistent management of the chains.
  • When entering transaction data you can choose between cumulative or delta data entry.
  • You enter payment documents using the Accounts Receivable and Payable Accounting (FI.AP/AR) transactions. In doing so, the system assigns the payment documents to the relevant transactions. This guarantees that the outgoing and incoming payments are also displayed in the relevant transactions.
  • The accounting documents belonging to one transaction are displayed in the document view. For example, the invoice document, reversal document for the transaction Final Invoice, a further accounting document, and payment document can be displayed.
  • In the document display for the transaction, you can navigate from the accounting document to the associated financial accounting documents.
  • Account assignment is carried out by means of WBS elements. This is how costs and revenues for the down payment chain are assigned to the projects. The relevant accounts for Financial Accounting are managed in Controlling (CO) as cost elements or revenue elements.
  • There are several reports available to you for monitoring payables and receivables, as well as revenue and expenses for individual projects, customers or vendors.
  • You can maintain the sales tax summary report for deferred tax for down payment chains.
  • You can archive down payment chains.
