Summary :
When posting credit down payments with order reference in SAP Releases 3.0A to 3.0C, error messages FI660 and FI661 might appear, indicating the need to maintain default cost and revenue elements in the respective controlling areas. These messages arise due to the system's behavior, where checks for default cost elements occur interactively and default elements are used in updates if specific ones are not identified. To resolve, users must configure the default elements for down payments in the Project System configuration menu (transaction OKEP).
