Payment Plan Data from Sales Documents 
Payment Plan Data from Sales Documents
Use
On the incoming payment side, there is usually a link between a sales document item (quotation or sales order item) and a billing element in the work breakdown structure. The sales document item has a sales price which is split by billing date in a billing plan; or you can assign it to the delivery date you need.
The system uses this function to record values from customer quotations and sales orders in the project, thereby ensuring that the payment data is complete.
Prerequisites
You use the project plan profile in the Project System IMG to determine whether the system records the planned payments from the quotation or sales order in payment planning for the relevant billing element.
For line items to be written to the payment data, you must first assign commercial transaction FIPA to a number range in the Project System IMG.
Features
The system records the planned date from the quotation/sales order by currency and day.
The object currency is the currency used in the sales document. The system uses the rate from the sales document header to translate this amount into controlling area currency.The system determines the payment plan value and revenue element from the conditions in the sales document. When calculating the payment dates, the system takes account of the terms of payment in the sales document item.
Recording Data from Sales Documents
If the quotation includes alternative items, the system always takes the most probable item. There is no weighting of quotation items by probability.
If you create a sales order referencing a quotation, the sales order value overwrites the quotation value in payment planning.
You can evaluate the data by period and day in the cost/revenue/payment information system.
The data is recorded in the same way as payment data is recorded from the billing plan for the WBS element.
