"Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental."

SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud Edition

1. Create payment via app Manage Automatic Payments.
2. Clearing date is picked from invoice due date instead of payment posting date. 

For example, the payment run date and posting date is 03/07/2025 however the clearing date of payment document is set to 01/09/2025.

The checkbox "Payment per due date" is marked in Configuration Activity / SSCUI 101044 'Set up payment method per company code'.

If the flag 'Payment per Due Day' in the company code payment methods is used, all items with a due date in the past are grouped together; The items with a future due date are also grouped together in correspondence to the respective future due date. The system automatically transfers the due date to the clearing date.

If the 'Payment per due day' flag (T042E-XZFAE) is set, the due date is relevant for the clearing date and not the posting date.

If this flag is not used, all due items will be grouped together into a single payment. The system automatically transfers the payment day into the clearing date.

Check supplier's payment term set in BP master in Configuration Activity / SSCUI 102934 'Maintain Terms of Payment'.

Net due date can be calculated in the following two ways:

Calculation Logic 1.

Net due date = Baseline date + No. of Days

Baseline date = Document Date

Net due date = Document Date + No. of Days

Calculation Logic 2:

Baseline date = fixed day and additional month

In this case example the fixed day is 0. But if fixed would be day =31 and additional month =0 baseline date would be 31th day of the month of Document Date.

So in this case example if Posting Date = Document Date = 03/07/2025, the Net due date is 03/07/2025+60 days and this is 01/09/2025.

Because the flag 'Payment per Due Day' is verified in Config. Activity 101044 payment method per company code, the Clearing date of the payment will be 01/09/2025.
