Document Line
The purchase order line number or RFQ line number.

The number of the stage payment line.
Description
The description assigned to the stage payment line.
Buy-from Business Partner
The business partner from whom you order goods or services; this usually represents a supplier's sales department. The definition includes the default price and discount agreements, purchase-order defaults, delivery terms, and the related ship-from and invoice-from business partner.
Item
In LN, the raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, sold, and so on.

An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit, or exist in multiple product variants.

You can also define nonphysical items, which are not held in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. The following are examples of nonphysical items:

  • Cost items (for example, electricity)
  • Service items
  • Subcontracting services
  • List items (menus/options)
Order Line Amount
The net order line amount for the purchase order line or RFQ line.
Currency
A generally accepted medium of exchange such as coins, treasury notes, and banknotes.

The following currency types are available in LN:

  • Home currency, which is used internally by companies to calculate costs, record budgets, and register tax amounts
  • Transaction currency, which is used in transactions with business partners, such as orders and invoices
Percentage
The percentage of the net order line amount that must be invoiced through this stage payment line.

For the first stage payment line, the default is 100 percent. For every other (noncanceled) line that is linked to the same parent business object, the default percentage is as follows:

100 - total percentage of the other stage payment lines
Amount
The amount that must be invoiced through this stage payment line.

If a percentage is specified in the Percentage field, an amount is automatically calculated in this field. The default amount is calculated as follows:

Ordered Amount - total amount of the other stage payment lines
Due Date
The date the stage payment line must be paid to the supplier.
Status
The status of the stage payment line.
Invoicing Status
The status of the stage payment line in Financials, which can be Free, Matched, or All Approved.
Text
If this check box is selected, a text is linked to the stage payment line.
Payment Terms
Agreements about the way in which invoices are paid.

The payment terms include:

  • The period within which invoices must be paid.
  • The discount granted if an invoice is paid within a given period

The payment terms allow you to calculate:

  • The date on which the payment is due
  • The date on which the discount periods expire
  • The discount amount
Payment Agreement
A way to define how invoice amounts must be paid. This includes the payment methods that apply to various parts of the invoice amount, and the payment currency.

For example, you can define a payment agreement to pay the first part of the invoice amount through the bank according to payment method PM1, 40 percent of the remaining amount, according to payment method PM2, and the other 60 percent according to payment method PM3, which can be a trade note payable.

Exchange Rate Type
A way to group currency exchange rates. You can assign different currency exchange rates to different invoice-to business partners and/or to different types of transactions (purchase, sales, and so on).
Rate Date
The date that is used to determine the rate (currency exchange rate).
Rate/Rate Factor
The factor by which purchase transaction amounts in a foreign currency are multiplied to produce the amounts in the home currency.
The factor by which the amount in the transaction currency or the invoice currency is divided before LN converts it to a home currency. A rate factor is often used for currencies that have a relatively low price, for example, Korean Won.
The conversion between the home currency and the currency that is used on the order.
Creation Date
The date on which the stage payment line was created.
Created by
The user who created the stage payment line.
