  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FI_E153 - This purchase order will now have a Fast Pay payment term of &1 ?

    The SAP error message FI_E153 indicates that a purchase order (PO) is being processed with a Fast Pay payment term, which may not be appropriate for the transaction or the vendor involved. This message typically arises in the context of financial accounting and procurement processes within SAP.

    Cause:

    1. Fast Pay Payment Terms: The purchase order is set to use Fast Pay payment terms, which are usually intended for specific scenarios, such as expedited payments for certain vendors or types of transactions.
    2. Vendor Configuration: The vendor may not be configured to accept Fast Pay terms, or there may be restrictions on the use of Fast Pay for certain types of purchase orders.
    3. PO Configuration: The purchase order itself may have been incorrectly configured to use Fast Pay terms when it should not.

    Solution:

    1. Review Payment Terms: Check the payment terms assigned to the purchase order. If Fast Pay is not appropriate, change the payment terms to a standard payment term that aligns with your company's policies and the vendor's agreements.
    2. Vendor Master Data: Verify the vendor's master data to ensure that the payment terms are correctly set up. If the vendor should not be using Fast Pay, update the vendor's payment terms accordingly.
    3. PO Review: Review the purchase order details to ensure that all configurations are correct. If necessary, create a new purchase order with the correct payment terms.
    4. Consult with Finance Team: If you are unsure about the appropriate payment terms, consult with your finance or procurement team to ensure compliance with company policies.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP's official documentation for detailed information on payment terms and their configurations.
    • Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like ME23N (Display Purchase Order) to review the purchase order details and ME2N (Purchase Orders by PO Number) to search for specific purchase orders.
    • User Exits and BAdIs: If your organization has custom logic implemented, check for any user exits or BAdIs that might affect payment term assignments.

    If the issue persists after checking these areas, it may be beneficial to engage with your SAP support team or consult with an SAP expert for further troubleshooting.
