This IMG activity describes how to define payment schemas. To define payment schemas you must first establish the following settings for invoicing in Contract Accounts Payable and Receivable, and for main and subtransactions in Clearing Control.

Example

Requirements

Standard settings

Main and subtransactions

We recommend that you copy the following standard settings for main and subtransactions for application area R (utilities industry). You can find the standard settings in Customizing under:

Financial Accounting -> Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable -> Basic Functions -> Postings and Documents -> Document -> <further path specification>.

Under Maintain Document Assignments -> Maintain Subtransactions are:

  • Internal main transaction 0030 (payment schema: request) for internal main transaction 0080 (installment plan)
  • Internal main transaction 0030 (down payment request: payment schema) for internal main transaction 3000 (down payment)

These internal transactions are allocated to the external transactions in Customizing under Maintain Document Assignments -> Maintain Transactions for IS-U/IS-T as follows:

Maintain Transactions for IS-U/IS-T

ApplArea    Int.MT    Int.ST    Meaning    MT    ST    Meaning

R    0080    0030    Payment schema: request    0080    0090    Payment schema installment

R    3000    0030    Payment request, Payment schema    3000    0090    Payment request payment schema

There is an entry for transaction 3000/0090 (statistics key A) in posting area 1010. You can find this under Define Account Assignments for Automatic Postings -> Define Account Assignments for Down Payments and Charges.

There is a separate document line type INSTPS (installment payment schema) for the payment schema. You can find this in Customizing, under: SAP Utilities -> Tools -> System Modifications -> User-Defined Variant Programs -> Define Line Item Types.

Clearing control

For more information about the settings for clearing control, see the Activities section.

Recommendation

Activities

Main and subtransactions (mandatory)

If you do not want to use the standard settings, you must establish the necessary settings in Customizing:

If not specified explicitly, establish the necessary settings in Customizing under:

Financial Accounting -> Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable -> Basic Functions -> Postings and Documents -> Document -> <additional path specification>.

  1. Enter the attributes of transactions 0080/0030 and 3000/0090 for each company code and division.

    Maintain these under Maintain Document Assignments -> Maintain Transactions for IS-U/IS-T.

  2. Activate budget billing procedure 4 (payment schema) in posting area R301.

    Maintain this in Customizing under SAP Utilities -> Invoicing -> Budget Billing Plan -> Define Budget Billing Procedures.

  3. Store a receivables account in posting area R000 for main transaction 3000.

    Maintain this under Maintain Document Assignments for Automatic Postings -> Automatic G/L Account Assignment -> IS-U: Define Acct Assmnt Data Relevant to Main Transactions.

  4. Enter a payment schema category and a payment schema deactivation reason.

    Maintain this in Customizing under SAP Utilities -> Invoicing -> Budget Billing Plan -> Define Control Parameters for Budget Billing Amount.

  5. Enter document types for the documents of the down payment request and the installment plan payment schema.

    Maintain this under Maintain Document Account Assignments -> Document Types -> Maintain Default Document Types for Invoicing.

Clearing control (optional)

To ensure that first the bill, then the extrapolation share are cleared in the quarterly bills, we recommend that you copy the standard settings in clearing control and establish certain separate settings.

If not specified explicitly, establish the settings in Customizing under:

Financial Accounting -> Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable -> Basic Functions -> Open Item Management -> Clearing Control -> <additional path specification>.

The standard settings are:

  • Grouping feature 025 (clearing restriction AUGRS)

    You can find this under Clearing Variants -> Define Grouping and Sorting Features.

  • Clearing variant UK1, that executes processing according to grouping feature 025

    You can find this under Clearing Variants -> Define Clearing Variants.

We recommend the following separate settings for the determination of clearing variant UK1:

  1. Maintain a separate clearing category.

    Maintain this under Define Clearing Categories.

  2. Allocate clearing category R41 as the alternative clearing category, to the separate clearing category.

    Maintain this under Define Specifications for Clearing Types -> Define Specifications for Invoicing.

Alternatively to steps 1 and 2, you can maintain a separate clearing type for event R400 (IS-U Invoicing: Clearing/Settlement Types) for billing transaction 02 (interim billing).

Maintain this in Customizing under Financial Accounting -> Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable -> Program Enhancements -> Define Customer-Specific Function Modules.

  1. Maintain an entry that activates account maintenance for clearing type R41 and clearing category UK1.

    Maintain this under SAP Utilities -> Invoicing -> InvoiceProcessing -> Define Control for Additional Invoicing Functions.

Further notes

Note that clearing is also referred to as settlement in this IS-U activity.
