In the sales order it is possible to post a prepayment invoice. 

As far as in the standard everything as desired, the connection between prepayment invoice and sales order is given and the status changes accordingly.


Unfortunately, the problem arises:

that the invoice is linked at the line level and therefore it is not possible to change the sales order to additional lines afterwards.


Changing sales lines afterwards may be necessary:

if the availability changes while waiting for the receipt of the advance payment.

For example, if an item was entered on a goods issue date, it may be that only a smaller quantity is available on the goods issue date at the moment of payment and the remaining quantity must be entered in a new sales order line on a different goods issue date.


This does not change the sales order value, so the posted prepayment is still valid and correct, only the availability of the items must be distributed to additional sales order lines with different goods issue date so that there is no stock shortage.
