Documentation

Definition

Business partner who pays the open items instead of the contract partner.

Procedure

If you have agreed a debit memo procedure as payment method for a contract, you can enter an alternative payer here, provided that payment will not be made from the contract partner's bank account, but from the bank account of a third party. Receivables to different contract partners with the same alternative payer are then paid separately by contract partner instead of being paid together.

Dependencies

Alternatively, you can define bank details with an alternative account holder in the contract partner master record. To do so, you leave the field Alter.payer blank and enter the relevant bank ID in the field Bank det.In..
