Error: 'Party in actual and ref. down payment request 123 do not match'.

• There is a validation check to compare the account party and the payer party of the customer invoice and assigned down payment request.
• If the party deviates, the error is thrown and no assignment takes place.

This is the expected system behavior.

Assignment of Down Payment Requests with an account or payer deviating in invoice and down payment request is currently not supported.
