In this section you define the cost/revenue elements updated in CO when you post down payments and down payment requests without purchase order references.
For down payments referring to a purchase order, the SAP System uses the purchase order cost element. If there is no reference, the cost element in the (subsequent) invoice is not known. In this case, you need to define one cost element (type 01 = Primary cost elements general) for credit down payments in each controlling area, or one revenue element (type 11 = revenue elements) for debit-side down payments.
The SAP System updates the values for the account assignment objects order, WBS element, and network. Down payments assigned to other objects must also be assigned to a cost element, for technical reasons.
For each controlling area, enter a default cost element for credit down payments to meet your requirements, and a default revenue element for debit down payments.
The update is not dependent on whether Cash Budget Management is activated.
