However, the quantity has been reduced from 2 to 1 in period 2, which results in a reduction of the line amount and thus triggers a sales credit memo.
The sales credit memo is created but not posted and is visible in the relevant Payment Plan lines in the additional table No. of Related Documents and can be posted there.
The quantity in the Contract line has also been increased as the new quantity affects the next billing interval.
