Definition

A key for defining terms of payment in the form of discount percentage rates and payment periods.

Use

This key is used in purchase orders and invoices. The corresponding terms of payment give information relevant for cash management and forecast, dunning and payment transactions.

Procedure

When entering a business transaction, the field can be filled in various ways:

  • For most business transactions, the system defaults a key that has been defined in the business partner's master record.
  • To enter credit memos in Financial Accounting, a special key may be defined in the master record. If no key is defined, you can copy the key intended for invoices from the business partner's master record by entering "*".
  • Regardless of whether a key is defaulted from the master record, you can specify a key:
    • On the item level of orders
    • On the header level of orders or invoices

Note

Master records have separate areas for Financial Accounting, Sales & Distribution and Purchasing.You can define specific terms of payment keys in these areas. The applications use the key defined in their own master records when business transactions are created.
