Hi

Your requirement is possible if you create your invoice using the standard
transaction ( complex posting) if your expense line item inputs are broken
down and entered during input.. Thus you can do partial payments as
stipulated by you. I do not think this is possible if you use enjoy
transactions.

Subject: Customer Invoice Partial Payment

I understand that when applying a partial payment to a customer invoice (partial payment, not residual payment) I will maintain 2 records in BSID, and also see the 2 items on the customer balance.

Example:

Invoice 1000
Payment 800

What I am trying to understand is if SAP is able to maintain what items from that customer invoice the payment is applied to (using some sort of logic that would be configured somewhere)

Back to our example:

My invoice of $ 1000 is broken down like this among 3 line items:
Item Value
10 $ 500
20 $ 300
30 $ 200

For our example, the $800 payment was for items 10 and 20 off of the original invoice. Is there a way for me to report this in a way that I see item 30 open, with a balance of $200 ?

Thoughts/Comments?

Thanks in advance!
