Definition

Key that is used to define the terms of payment in the form of cash discount percentages and payment periods.

Use

The key is used in sales orders, purchase orders, and invoices. The associated terms of payment provide information for cash managment and forecast, dunning and financial transactions.

Procedure

When a business transaction is entered, various entries can be made in the field for the terms of payment key:

  • In most cases, the system suggests the key that is entered in the master record for the business partner.
  • When credit memos are entered in Financial Accounting, a special key can be entered in the master record. If this key is not entered, you can enter "*" to find out which key is defined for invoices in the master record for the business partner.
  • Regardless of whether the system provides a default value from the master record, you can enter a key:
    • At item level, in the case of sales orders
    • At header level, in the case of purchase orders and invoices

Note

Master records have separate areas for Financial Accounting, Sales and Distribution and Purchasing. You can enter keys for terms of payment in each of these areas. The various applications then use the key that is entered in their own area of the master record.
