  Adjust Purchase Order or Invoice: If the prepayment amount is correct but the line item net value is incorrect, you may need to adjust the purchase order or invoice to ensure that the values are consistent.
  
  
  Consult Configuration Settings: If the issue persists, consult with your SAP configuration team to review the settings related to prepayments and ensure they are set up correctly according to your business processes.
