SAPNote 23432 - Recurr.entry w. paym.term (period) from recurr.doc

Symptom:

Recurring document ---- Recurring entry
---------------------------------------
Initial situation:

The master record for a customer/vendor contains a payment term that is different from that in the recurring entry original document OR there are no payment terms specified in the master record OR there is no default value for the baseline date for payment in the payment terms that are entered in the master record.
Consequence:

This may cause inconsistencies in the calculation of the baseline date for payment in the actual document that is created on the basis of the
recurring document.

The baseline date for payment is not derived from the recurring entry
original document, since the date in this document is never updated, i.e. the baseline date for payment field retains its initial value if
no value is defaulted from the payment terms in the master record. If
a value is defaulted into this field, it may not be correct.
This would be the case if, for example, the entry in the master
record were ZBXX (default document date) and the entry in the recurring
entry original document were ZBYY (default CPU date). In this case,
the entry in the master record would be taken by the system.

Cause and prerequisites

Processing logic for calculating the baseline date for payment.

Solution
Recurring entries with payment terms only enter the correct baseline date in the actual document if the same rules for baseline date calculation have been set in the payment terms in both the master record and the recurring entry original document.
