Detailed explanation-1: -When you post the partial payment, the system marks the document number of the original open item in the line item for the partial payment. The original open item and the partial payment remain open.
Detailed explanation-2: -How to post an outgoing partial payment? Use the T-code F-53 or go to Accounting → Financial Accounting → Accounts Payable → Document Entry → Outgoing Payment → Post. Click on the Partial Payment Tab. Select and Activate the Invoice against which the partial payment has been made.
Detailed explanation-3: -A partial payment happens when we post a payment on account and no clearing occurs. This means both invoice and payment will remain as open items till we cleared them. On the other hand, a residual payment will clear the original document and a new item will be created.
Detailed explanation-4: -If you want to clear the down payment only partially, you must switch to the partial payment screen. You enter the amount to be cleared in the column Payment amount.
