Sap Sale Module: Re: [sap-log-sd] Different Discounts Based on Payment Performance

Hello Mr. Typewriter,

Thank you very much for your reply.

We both ended at the same point. The tricky part is, a customer might specify payment term 1 at the time of SO and it gets billed (after delivery), but if he doesn't pay up within the specified time, the payment terms need to automatically change to 2. The only way I could see is to reverse the entire process and start again with new payment terms. Given the fact that this scenario occurs more than often in clients business, is going to be a nightmare.

And to add to the above requirement I have one more scenario where in one particular customer group bets billed at flat 5% cash discount. If they dont pay within 5 days, the discount automatically has to be converted into 3% rebate to be paid every quarter.

Your views are most appreciated.

Warm regards,
Saratvamsi

Payment Terms is the way forward.

You can configure your Terms of Payment in OBB8. Check out 0002, to get an idea.
Your configured Terms of Payment has to be put in the CMR, button Sales Area Data, Tab Billing Documents, field "Terms of Payment".
In MMR, Tab Sales:Sales org1, field Cash discount activate (tick mark) it.

In the pricing procedure - as mentioned by ram - condition type SKTO (statistical) Cash discount is used to retrive cash discount rate. (e.g. 10% or 8% etc.). In the sales order, the Payment Term could come from the CMR. When you see Tab Conditions, condition type SKTO you shall see that the cond type has retrived the first percentage cash discount. This condition is statistical in the sales order.

Please see below link -

I am NOT sure about one thing and would request you to add this in your thread (or questions) -
e.g.
Payment Terms Z001 - 10% discount if paid within 5 days; 7% discount if paid within 20days (of posting date)
The sales order, SKTO picks up 10% automatically. This also goes to the billing document.
If the customer pays on the 15th day, then 10% has to be CHANGED to 7%, how and where and by whom is this done?
