When your vendor sends you an invoice for a down payment, you enter it in SAP Business One as an A/P down payment invoice.

The posting created by this document is relevant only for the accounting system and does not affect inventory values. You can create this document based on a purchase order or a goods receipt PO, just as you do with your regular A/P invoices.

In some localizations, you can create this document based on a paid down payment request. For more information, see the relevant process/procedure descriptions.
