Billing Document Not releasing to Accounting because of Condition Type

Hi,
We have used Sales Condition Type ZSCM(Which is a statistical condition type) in Billing Documents and they are already released to Accounting.Today we have created one more Billing Document with same Condition type ZSCM.But this billing document is not getting released to Accounting?
What could be the reason? Why it was released to Accounting before with the same condition type ZSCM and why it is not getting released to Accounting this time.
I am breaking my head to find the possible reasons...kindly help me out to find the problem.
1.Billing document 90005889 - has value 64.48462- and It has only 2 Items and it was released to accounting
2.Billing document 90005729 - has value 217.87960- and It has only 21 Items and it was not released to accounting and asking to activate +/- sing in KE4I transaction for the ZSCM condition type.
Why billing document 90005889 is released for accounting and why 90005729 was not released to accounting?
Thanks
Supriya

Hi,
There can be following possible reasons fo the samed :
1. If the specific GL account is not getting any assignment to CO object.
2. Also you need to check assignment with VKOA that whichever GL is assigned as per business process of Sales (the account which is going to be credited) and all relevant settings in VKOA.
3. Pls check all substitutions and validations if any connected with that condition type and GL. Becuase sometimes it may happen that because of calling some other application (for ex. Set or substitution as generally transportation of this element happen with entire hierarchy if you add your substition in the node.) at he time of posting of billing document. This has already happen with our business scenario.
4. Also check if this sales revenue GL is assinged to any set and if that set is called through any substitution ot validation.
Pls check all these possibilities and revert.
Thanks & Regards,

Reg: Billing document not released to Accounting -Error

Hi Gurus,
I am facing a problem in Billing.I am creating a billing document and while saving the document it shows up the error " Credit Control area 1200 not assigned to Company Code 1000".
I have checked the enterprise structure and everything regarding Credit Control Area exists in the system.
I am able to create the billing document and release to accounting for the same company code for different payers.
But this error occurs unique to a particular Customer's Billing Document alone.
Please do provide me a solution to this error.
Regards,
Sarosh

Hi Ravi
Check in the enterprise structure wheather you have assigned correct credit control area to the (sales orgn+ dist channel + division) to your sales area . or not
Secondly check in VD02 wheather you have assigned any wrong credit control area or not

Billing Document not released to Accounting -Issue

Hi,
While releasing the billing document,it is not releasing to accounting and giving the below error log.
Thanks

Diagnosis
    When condition "ZSCM" (application "V") was transferred to the value field "VV139" in operating concern "AFCO" in Profitability Analysis, the following became apparent:
u2022     The condition can take both positive and negative   values
u2022     The flag "Transfer values with +/- signs" has not be set in Customizing for value field assignment.
    Inconsistencies in the data could occur as a consequence.
System Response
    It is not possible to post the document in Profitability Analysis.
Procedure
    Set the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs" for the condition "ZSCM".
    You should set the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs" selectively for individual conditions if:
1. The conditions can take both negative and positive values (for example, in the case of conditions that describe a transfer price surcharge or a loss deduction).
2. The conditions appear several times in a billing document and thus cause a debit posting as well as a
    credit posting (this is the case, for example, when creating or cancelling reserves).
By activating the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs", you balance the positive and negative values in a
condition. You can thereby guarantee that the sum of the negative and positive condition values is displayed as the correct total value in the value field assigned to the condition.
Caution when in the production system!
    If you have already used condition "ZSCM" to post data in the production system, then the sign in
    Profitability Analysis may differ from the previous sign as a result of the flag "Transfer values with +/-
    signs" having been activated. See the F1 Help documentation on the field "Transfer values with +/-
    signs" or the OSS note 52849. If deviating signs occur, it makes sense to move condition "ZSCM" to a new value field! Contact your system adviser or SAP.
    The +/- signs are handled as follows for the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs":
    Billing document (normal) "trans.with signs" "trans.w/o signs"
     Debit posting                   negative     positive       (such as sales deductions)
     Credit posting                  positive      positive       (such as revenues)
    Credit memos/returns    "trans.with signs" "trans.w/o signs"
     Debit posting                   negative     negative       (such as revenues)
     Credit posting                  positive       negative       (such as sales deductions)
    Maintain Condition Assignment to Value Fields u2013 SD Condition
    Maintain Condition Assignment to Value Fields u2013 MM condition
Procedure for System Administration

Billing Document not released to accounting

System is not allowing to release the document for accounting. and even after saving the accounting document is not reflecting in document flow.
Please suggest the needful as to how to fix this problem. The material master contains standard price . Please suggest where else I need to check.

Proforma Invoice is like a dummy invoice which is generated for accompanying the delivery note or for approximate prices for the Customer. This will not generate any accounting document. Later, these proforma invoices are converted to final invoices. Billing types are classified as proforma or regular. If your billing type is classified as proforma, you cannot generate any accounting document for the same.
In the billing type, if the 'Blocked for posting' indicator is checked, you cant generate accounting document either.

Billing document not releasing to accounting

we unable to release Billing Document XXXXXXXX, the error massege is mentioned below.
XXXXXXXXXX 000000 Document XXXXXXXXXX saved (no accounting document generated)
XXXXXXXXXX 000000 Error reading the material cost estimate for sales order "ZZZZZZZZ"
Can you tell me why this error is coming at the time of releasing the billing document to accounting? and suggest me how to solve this issue.

If the Cost estimate is based on sales order, then you have to settle all the costs of production order costs and sales order costs, then only you can release the document to accounting.

Billing Document not posted to accounting

Hello All,
Billing Document not posted to accounting & throws error , if trying to release in VFX3:-
Document number 1001003528 in company code 0952 in fiscal year 2010 is affected
Message no. FF099.
Please advice.
Regards,
Vikas

Hello Vikas;
Maybe you are trying to post FI document which does not correspond to SAP standard.
Check if your document has 2 line items with the same tax code AA and tax
condition MWS (one tax rate 0% and 30 %, for instance). It must be either different
tax codes and or tax conditions.
Hope it can help.

Billing document not transferrred to Accounting: Msg no. KE350

Dear All.
We're having an issue in SD Billing. Some billing documents error out when released to accounting.
This is due to a material on the billing document, which is set up as FERT but they are also checked field 'Do not Cost' on the material master. As our accounting group does not want to cost these materials.
So we turned off the 'Determine Cost' checkbox on the item category. Seems ok, no VPRS is calculated now in the billing document.
Still though the items error out when the billing document is generated and no accounting document is generated.
Message = Valuation with material cost estimate: error with product "xxxxx"
Any thoughts, or seen this before?
Many Thanks!

This is failing because COPA valuation is active in your system and a product cost estimate is required for that material type. If you don't want to create a product cost estimate for this material then you must change one of the valuation settings in your system. Currently your system is set so that if a valution key is not assigned an error message is issued. That can be changed so that an error message is not issued if a costing key is not found. Another option is to assign a "blank" costing key to this particular material. In that case the costing key requirement is meet and the item will post.
There are different ways to assign costing keys for valuation, so you will need to check to see how your system is set. Check transaction code KE4J. If you have settings in that table then keys are assigned by material type. If desired, you can deactivate the error message for the costing key so that the posting will not fail if a costing key is not found. (Controlling - Profitablity analysis - Mater data - Valuation - Setup valaution using material cost estimate - Define access to standard cost estimate)
Alternatively, you can maintain costing keys with t-code KEPC. This one is more flexible and preferred. Here you can create derivation rules for finding costing keys. Create one rule for finding a costing key by material and another rule for finding by material type (or what ever characteristics make sense for you). For the rule by material, assign a "blank" costing key to the materials that should not be valuated. This will satisfy the costing key requirement and you will not ger a valuation error.
thanks,

Billing doc not released to accounting

Hi !
What can be the reasons that a billing document is not automatically released to accounting?
I know one reason - that is when there is a posting block assigned to the billing document type .
Plz correct me if I am wrong with the above reason,and plz provide if there can be other reasons as well.
Thanks.

Go to FS00 (Edit G/L Account) and assign a cost element to it in Edit Cost Element tab. Based on the name given to this G/L account you could correctly determine which category under which you could create it as a cost element.
Go to VF02, try clicking on the green flag and the system would throw an error.
Anaylze the error and try out transactions OKB9, VKOA to find out whether you have correctly maintained your entries.
Try running transaction FS00 and see whether the G/L accnt used for determination is valid in that particulat Company Code.
Sometimes the error could also be because the G/L accnt might required to be created as a cost element.
Let me know what is the error that you are getting. We can then propose a solution.
Reward if helpful

Billing Document Not Released

Dear All,
After Saving the document it is not released and system gives error is as;
You have not defined a CO account assignment for an account that is relevant to cost accounting.
System response
Account 411101 is defined as a cost element.
This means that you must always specify a CO account assignment.
Waiting for response.
Sachhin

Hello Sachhin,
Postings to a profit center are only statistical and does not fully
satisfy the 'Cost Accounting Assignment' required by the system.
This is probably why the system continues to prompt you for a (valid)
CO object. If you are using CO-PA, the profitability segment will
satisfy the cost accounting assignment. If you assign an internal order
of project, etc. it will also satisfy the cost accounting assignment.
However, if your revenue accounts are set up as cost elements, you will
receive this error message when trying to release the billing
document to accounting. You will need to establish a real CO object.
If you do not want to post this revenue to any CO object, and only
want to post to a profit center in EC-PCA, then you should not create
the GL account as a cost element. If you do not declare this as a
cost element, then it posts to FI and EC-PCA without the error KI235.
Also I would recommend that you check the account assignment to make
sure it has been set up properly in customizing. Please review
transactions 'OKB9' or 'OKC9'.
Here are some notes for your review:
83702      INFO: Acct assignmt logic sales order proc. - REM
41103      INFO: CO account assignment logic
17939      KI235 Account requires acct.assign. rel. to cost ac
704119     Error KI235 in processing of a billing document
105024     Automatic a/c assignment (OKB9) does not work
106968     FAQ: Account Assignment Logic
590855     VF02: Error message KI235
Please also check whether you have assigned a cash account determination procedure to billing type in VOFA, if so, system will try to post to cash account.
But the cash sales accounts are not relevant for CO, then error is issued.

Billing Document and release to Accounting

Hi,
Please, does anyone could explain me why the process of billing and release to accounting can be executed in different steps ?
I need explain it to my key-user.
Best Regards.
Kleyson Rios.

HI
It depends on the business process
1.Before releasing to accounts if you want to check the value of the invoice and tax implication any changes required you are able to do before releasing once that is done then you can release to accounts.
2. Once the billing document has generated accounting document then you will not able to change any thing in the billing document
Iin configuration you can set the posting block for billing document by going to t code VOFA .

Why not all billing documents are posted to CO-PA for condition types?

Hello!
I have following problem.
In transaction KE4I I have configured several condition types to post for specific value fields.
For some billing types it works but for some doesn't work.
For all domestic invoices it works but for abroad invoices it doesn't work.
Billing documents for abroad invoices are also posted to CO-PA but for another value fields, not for that I expect.
Where is problem?
I am waiting for help.
Best regards
Bogdan

Hi.
In both pricing procedures there are same condition types. The only difference was check box "Condition is used for statistics".
After marking this check box it still doesn't work.
There are placed the same condition types in all billing documents (domestic and abroad) . So I am supprised that for domestic billing documents field value in CO-PA is calculated for condition types placed in KE4I.
But for abroad billing documents the same field value is not calculated for the same condition types placed in KE4I.
Where is a problem?
I need help.
Best regards
Bogdan

Accounting documents not released

Hi Guru's
When saving the billing document the accouting documents were not released ,wat may b the probable reason.I have checked the sd configuration,It was ok .Pls let me know wat may be the missed link .
Thanks in advance
rgds

To resolve the error, you can analyze account determination in the billing document. Process:
Goto T.Code: VF02 & Enter Invoice number
Next (On the top most strip) goto Environment
Next (Select Environment) go to Account determination
Next (In Account Determination) select Revenue Account Determination (first option)
This will list all the condition types in the Billing document & analyze each condition & check for which G/L accounts is not determined.
Possible errors:
1. VKOA not maintained for required combination
Solution: Maintain the combination in VKOA.
2. Account Assignment of Customer / material not maintained in Customer / Material Master (If maintained in combination in VKOA).
Solution:
Option 1 (Standard solution):
step 1: Cancel Billing Document --> Reverse PGI --> cancel Delivery --> Cancel Sales Order
step 2: Maintain Customer master / Material Master correctly.
step 3: Recreate sales Order --> Delivery --> PGI --> Invoicing.
Option 2:
Force the Account Assignment Group of Customer / Material through Debug in change mode of Billing document, which will release Billing Document to Accounting.
3. Account Key not maintained in Pricing Procedure:
Impact: This may create accounting document, but if condition type, which are to be posted to account, but do not have account key maintained in pricing procedure, it will not be post the relevant condition type to G/L account.
From FI Side, you require to check that all the G/L account has been maintained through T.Code: FS00. G/L account being Master data has to be created in each client ot uploaded through LSMW / SCATT / BDC.
In Billing Document in change mode (in the first screen where we enter Billing Document number), on the top most left hand corner, take a dropdown on Billing Document & select Release to accounting. Here you can get the under mentioned possible message:
1. G/L account not found
2. Cost Element not maintained for G/L account.
In both the above cases, FI consultant requires to take corrective action.
