A second Payment Terms field against BP's that would write a second DUDDAT field to GACCDUDATE and be available for reporting and payment proposals.

where cashflow is tight many companies routinely push the credit boundaries by not adhering strictly to supplier payment terms. in this scenario everything is late on a payment proposal and finance are then cherry picking what they pay. a 2nd payment terms field and related due date would allow the company to run payment proposals according to:
1. their 'internally decided' payment terms (those suppliers who MUST be settled and WHEN), as well as
2. the 'externally requested' payment period stated by the supplier
thus knowing the cashflow gap
