Use
In this IMG activity, you assign the chain type of a credit-side down payment chain to a purchase order document type.
When a purchase order is created or changed, the system checks whether the selected purchase order document type is assigned a chain type of a credit-side down payment chain (see the SAP Easy Access menu Logistics -> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Create -> Vendor/Supplying Plant Known or Logistics -> Materials Management -> Purchasing-> Purchase Order-> Change). If there is an assignment and a purchase order item has Service as the item category, the system shows the Down Payment Chain tab page in the item details and enters a default chain type. If the user has entered all required data, the system creates a contract for a credit-side down payment chain when the purchase order is saved.
Requirements
You have defined the chain type for the credit-side down payment chain (see IMG activity Define Chain Types in Customizing under Financial Accounting (New) -> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable -> Business Transactions -> Debit-Side and Credit-Side Down Payment Chains -> Define Chain Types).
You have specified a document type for the purchase order (IMG activity Define Document Types in Customizing under Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order).
