Clearing Down Payment Open Items Manually

You clear down payment open items manually, if:

When you enter an incoming or outgoing payment, you can clear the entire amount of a down payment or just a partial amount.

The topic Clearing Open Items and FI - Document Posting describe how you post and clear open items.

When you enter incoming or outgoing payments and want to clear open items for a down payment, note the following:

In addition to selecting the invoices, you must also select the down payments. You do this before you switch to open item management by entering one or more special G/L indicators for down payments (for example, in the standard system, A , I , M or V ) in the field for special G/L transactions in the selection screen.

If you want to clear the down payment only partially, you must switch to the partial payment screen. You enter the amount to be cleared in the column Payment amount.
