Use

In this Customizing activity, you determine whether the system displays system messages 114, 210, 234, 253, 254, 255, 492, 493, 494, 601, 602, and 603 from message class /SAPPCE/DPCM1 as information, warning or error messages when an error occurs.

You can also make this setting for individual users.

  • System message /SAPPCE/DPCM1 114 is called if the status of a down payment chain should be set to 'closed' and there is an active final invoice, but the balance of the down payment chain is not zero. If this message is configured as a warning or is deactivated, you can set a down payment chain to 'closed' as soon as the last correction has been posted. Otherwise, this requires an additional step and cannot be done until after payment has been made.
  • System message /SAPPCE/DPCM1 210 is called if a new transaction is created with a document date that is earlier than the document date of the previous transaction in the same down payment chain.
  • System message /SAPPCE/DPCM1 234 is called if an invoice is created whose posting date is earlier than the posting date of a down payment that is to be cleared.
  • System message /SAPPCE/DPCM1 253 is called if you try to post a down payment chain to a cumulative value of less than 10 although the previous cumulative value was at least 1000 times higher. For more information about the background to this message, see SAP Note 1027801.
  • System message /SAPPCE/DPCM1 254 is called if the tax reporting date of the document currently being posted is smaller than the tax reporting date of the last document posted in the relevant down payment chain. For this message, Customizing is only relevant if the tax code of the down payment chain is not deferred. A deferred tax code always produces an error message.
  • System message /SAPPCE/DPCM1 255 is called in report RFUMSV50 if the delimited period comprises more than one posting period and if the down payment chains application is active.
  • The system message /SAPPCE/DPCM1 492 is called when the cumulated invoice amount exceeds the order value entered in the chain contract. In this case, the system also takes into account any tolerance value entered for the chain type.
  • The system message /SAPPCE/DPCM1 493 is called when the cumulated invoice amount plus all advance payments not yet offset exceeds the order value entered in the chain contract. In this case, the system also takes into account any tolerance value entered for the chain type.
  • The system message /SAPPCE/DPCM1 494 is called when the cumulated advance payment requests plus all payments made up to now on partial invoices exceed the order value entered in the chain contract. In this case, the system also takes into account any tolerance value entered for the chain type.
  • System message /SAPPCE/DPCM1 601 is called if you want to change the tax code for the down payment chain, although a final invoice has been posted for the chain.
  • System message /SAPPCE/DPCM1 602 is called if the G/L account that is entered for account assignment in the contract data for the down payment chain is a balance sheet account.

    In standard Customizing, account assignment to a balance sheet account is not allowed.

    We recommend only changing this setting if you need to carry out account assignments to balance sheet accounts for your business transactions.

  • System message /SAPPCE/DPCM1 603 is called if more than one WBS element is entered in the contract data to which the system is to assign.

    The system does the following if several WBS elements are assigned as account assignment objects:

    • If the Joint Venture Accounting (CA-JVA) component is not set, the system correspondingly assigns the defined percentages to the WBS elements.
    • If the Joint Venture Accounting component is set to active in the company code, postings that only contain credit or debit items can no longer be clearly assigned to a joint venture. As a rule, this means postings for which retention amounts are created or cleared, without the actual invoiced amount changing, for example, if special retention amounts and guarantee retention amounts are cancelled. The system updates the data for the dummy venture.

      We recommend you configure this message as an error message if the Joint Venture Accounting component is set to active in the company code.
