You store these terms of payment under an alphanumeric key.

You enter this key in the vendor master record in order to specify terms of payment for a vendor. You enter the terms of payment for Purchasing (Purchasing view) and Accounting (nkaufsdaten) und für die Buchhaltung (Payment Transactions in Accounting view) separately.

Recommendation

Use separate keys for identical terms of payment with debtors and creditors respectively. If you use separate keys, changes in the terms of payment for debtors (customers) in Sales and Distribution do not have any effect on the vendor (creditor) master data in Purchasing.
