      Dear arghadip kar,

      I appreciated your post and I follow you but let me tell about two observations about the proccess above:

      You'll need to run a program to delete cache and run another program to reorganize the structure.

      the programs are:

      1. BALVBUFDEL
      2. RFPOSXEXTEND

      Thanks for your post.  Your revised layout after payment amount showing amounts with KR Doc Type however, with me it only appears with ZP Document Type therefore, not much helpful as ZP document Amount in Local Currency already shows payment amount.

      Is there anything else you did to show payment amount against KR/KZ Doc Type?

      thanks
