Documentation
Definition
You can use the invoicing function payment method determination to determine a payment method in accordance with the specifications in the contract account.
Use
The invoicing function payment method determination supports payment method determination based on the final invoice amount. If the final invoice amount is a receivables, invoicing tries to determine an incoming payment method. The incoming payment method defined for the customer in the contract account, amount limits defined in Customizing, and any incoming payment locks maintained in the contract account influence the determination of the relevant payment method.
If the final invoice amount is a credit, invoicing tries to determine an outgoing payment method. The required outgoing payment methods defined for the customer in the contract account, a prioritization of the outgoing payment methods to be used, amount limits from Customizing, and outgoing payment locks that can be set in the contract account influence the determination of the outgoing payment method.
The payment method determined is transferred to the invoicing document header. However, the posting documents created in invoicing do not receive the payment method determined; this enables payment together with other open items for the contract account. The items are interpreted again by the payment run.
You can also use event 2641 to determine the payment method
on an industry or customer basis and, if necessary, to set a payment method at business partner item level. You can also exclude the final invoice amount from payment until the next invoice.
Dependencies
If you want to use the payment method determination function, you have to activate it in the corresponding invoicing process and make the relevant system settings for automatic determination of the payment method in Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable.
