Multiple Incoming Payments for the same Invoice

[Former Member]

My client has an unusual situation. They are running SAP B1 version 8.8. They receive multiple incoming checks for payment against the same invoice. They receive them each month, so this is not a situation where they receive installments against the same invoice. They want to enter the multiple checks into one Payment Means document, but when they start a new row, the Due Date increments to the next month. This will cause them to change the date on all but the first row in the Payment Means form. Is there a way to prevent the Due Date from incrementing to the next month?

You are right.

What I mean Common should be read as Most Used. Because, if you only have < 20% transactions using it, it may not be a valid reason for it.

Gordon,

Thank you for your suggestion. It worked just like I wanted.

Gordon,

Does FMS mean formated search? My client has to enter several checks for payment against one invoice each month, so this will be a common occurrence. I assume you are suggesting creating a formatted search that would place the current date into the Due Date field when the row is updated. Correct?

This is current system function not only to new version. You may try an FMS to see if that could give you the desired result. However, if this is not common transactions, it may not be a good idea to do so.

Thanks,

Gordon
