3. Enter the External reference and the Amount and click on Ok.
4. The Down Payment request ABC will be created. (ABC is the Down Payment Invoice Request Id)
5. Go to Customer Invoicing Work Center and navigate to Invoice Requests View.
6. Search for the Down Payment Invoice Request ABC and click on Edit.
7. Check for the payment terms and you find that the payment terms in Down payment request ABC is not same as Sales Order XYZ.

The Payment terms used in Sales Order is not same as the payment terms maintained in the Account master. The Payment Terms in the Down Payment Request is always taken from the Account master data.

This is system standard behavior.
