The basis for the determination of the due date is the final bill amount (credit/receivable). The bill due date consists of the net due date, discount due date and the discount percentage rate.

The due date is determined in event Determine Due Date from Payment Conditions (1330). You can store your own due date determination rules depending on the payment condition.

When invoicing a consumption billing, the balance from the billing documents less the paid budget billing amounts is used as the basis to determine the due date.

The due date is not determined again for budget billing requests and partial bills, but is transferred from the budget billing plan.
