Release Strategy Problem with Invoicing Plan

Hi ,
I am using Invoicing Plan for my framework orders at client side.But the release is getting activated at line item level and not at the total invoice level while i am creating a PO.
Eg. If the PO total value is 1000 Rs and the individal line item is 500 Rs then release is getting activated at 500 Rs and Not at 1000 Rs where as i want the release to be get activated at 1000 Rs.That is the total of all line items in PO.
Lekhram

Dear Lekhram,
what is the field that u use in the characteristic value for the total amount?
You can try to user CEKKO-GNETW.

Purchase Order with Invoice Plan

Hi,
I need to understand working with Invoicing plans for a Purchase Order. Especially the service PO for the rents and other related services.
How the PO is linked to the Invoice Plan and how the process happens in SAP?
Thanks in advance!

Creating an Invoicing Plan
The following procedure describes how to create an invoicing plan with the pre-Enjoy ordering transactions (ME21, ME22, ME23).
The procedure described is also applicable u2013 with certain restrictions u2013 to the Enjoy purchase order (ME21N, ME22N, ME23N).
If you are using the Enjoy purchase order, you will find:
·         The Invoicing Plan button and the indicators for GR-based invoice verification (GR-Based IV), service-based invoice verification (Srv.-Based IV), evaluated receipt settlement (ERS), and invoice receipt (Inv. Receipt) among the item details on the Invoice tab page.
·         The account assignment among the item details on the Account Assignment tab page
·         The Goods Receipt and GR Non-Valuatedindicators among the item details on the Delivery tab page
Prerequisites
Vendor Master Record
Before you can use the invoicing plan with automatic settlement, the Evaluated Receipt Settlement Delivery indicator must be set on the Purchasing Data screen in the vendor master record.
(If you wish to enter invoicing dates manually, this is not necessary.)
Purchase Order
●     We recommend using a framework order (that is a purchase order with a validity period and a reason for rejection). The invoicing plan can adopt the validity period specified in the PO header.
●     PO items for which you wish to use an invoicing plan must have account assignment irrespective of whether a material with a master record, a material described by a short text, or an external service is involved.
●     The GR/IR control facility must be set up in such a way that no goods receipt (or, in the case of services, no service entry) is expected - only an incoming invoice. If you wish to have automatic settlement, you must also set the Evaluated Receipt Settlement indicator.
If you nevertheless wish to allow service entry sheets for the item (e.g. for information purposes only), you must set the GR Non-Val. indicator.
Customizing
Under Purchase Order à Invoicing Plan in Customizing for Purchasing, you can maintain data such as the desired invoicing plan types, date categories, and date descriptions.
Procedure
       1.      Create a purchase order with account assignment (framework order).
Click to access the item overview (or the overview of service lines if you chose item category D for services).
       2.      Enter the desired material or service, the quantity, and the price.
       3.      Select the desired item and click Account Assignments to access the account assignment screen. Enter the account assignment for this item.
       4.      Click to access the item detail screen. Check that the GR/IR control indicators are set correctly on the item detail screen.
○     The GR and GR-Based Invoice Verification or Service-Based Invoice Verification indicators must not be set.
○     IR must be set.
○     You must set ERS if you wish to have Evaluated Receipt Settlement.
○     If you wish to have service entry sheets purely for information, for example, allow non-valuated goods receipt (i.e. select the GR Non-Val and GR indicators).
       5.      Choose Item ® Invoicing Plan. A window appears, in which the invoicing plan types predefined in Customizing are suggested. Choose the desired invoicing plan type and click Continue.
You can use the following invoicing plan types:
○     Periodic Invoicing Plan
■      You use the periodic invoicing plan if the total value of the PO item is to be invoiced in each period.
■      The system creates the invoicing dates automatically on the basis of the settings in Customizing.
■      The invoicing date and the amount to be invoiced are shown for each settlement period (e.g. month). In the case of the periodic invoicing plan, the amount represents the total value of the PO item.
■      You can change the suggested dates and block individual dates for automatic invoicing if necessary.
■      You can enter the start and end dates for the invoicing plan.
■      With the Dates from and Dates to fields, you can determine that an invoicing plan does not contain invoicing dates extending over the entire validity period of the purchase order but only for a certain period within that validity period. (E.g. within a validity period from 1.1. to 12.31, only dates within the period 1.1. to 06.30.)
■      With the Horizon field, you control how far into the future dates can be created. If you enter a date rule that adds six months to the current date here, invoicing dates will be created for just half a year in advance in each case.
The system automatically creates new dates if you change the invoicing plan or when you invoke the transaction for Updating Periodic Invoicing Plans. See Generating Further Invoicing Plan Dates
■      The In Advance indicator allows you to specify whether the invoice is to be created with regard to a prior or subsequent period. (E.g. at the beginning of February, either in advance for the month of February or in arrears for the month of January).
■      In addition, fields with information on the existing invoicing plan are displayed (e.g. the calendar upon which the date determination process is based).
○     Partial Invoicing Plan
■      You use the partial invoicing plan if the total value of the PO item is to be invoiced in several partial amounts.
■      You get an empty date overview in which you can manually enter the desired dates.
■      If you work with a reference invoicing plan, the system automatically generates dates in accordance with the reference plan.
You have the following options:
●      You create a reference invoicing plan in Customizing for the invoicing plan type.
●      You enter an existing invoicing plan as reference plan directly in the invoicing plan for the PO item.
■      You can flag a date in field B (Billing/Invoicing Rule) as follows:
●      As a down payment (percentage or value)
●      As an invoicing date (percentage or value)
●      As a final invoice
       6.      Click to return to the item overview.
       7.      Click to save the purchase order item with the invoicing plan.
You can then start the automatic invoice creation process during invoice verification.
For more information, refer to the section Settlement of Amounts Due Under Invoicing Plans.
Once assigned to an item, the invoicing plan type (e.g. partial invoicing plan) cannot be changed. If you wish to assign a different invoicing plan type, you must delete the item and create a new one.
Generating Further Invoicing Plan Dates
If you have assigned a periodic invoicing plan to a PO item but have not initially defined invoicing dates covering the entire validity period of the purchase order, you can generate further dates in due course.
You have created a PO item with a periodic invoicing plan for a certain planned procurement. The purchase order is valid from 1.1. to 12.31. When creating the invoicing plan, you specified one invoicing date per month for the first half of the year. You have not yet planned any dates for the second half of the year because you do not wish information from the invoicing plan to be passed on to purchase order commitments at this stage, for example.
By mid-June, it is clear that the PO is to proceed as envisaged, and you therefore wish to schedule invoicing dates for the remainder of its validity period.
Procedure
To schedule further invoicing dates, proceed as follows:
Choose Purchase order ® Follow-on functions ® Period. invoicing plan
Specify the purchase orders for which invoicing dates are to be generated in the invoicing plan and perform the function.
A log can be created if desired.
Result
The system adds further dates on the basis of information such as the validity period or horizon from Customizing, the purchase order, and the invoicing plan.

Copy PO with Invoice Plan

Hi guys,
is there any function or way to copy a PO with Invoicing Plan?
If I try to create a new PO by copying from an existing one, everything is copied unless the Invoice Plan.
Who can help me?
Thanks.
Fabio

Hi,
An Enhancement is required in PO, whereby we can should explore the possibility to use two custom buttons, one at PO line item level for copying the Invoicing Plan from the current PO line item to any other desired PO line item, and other button at the PO header level for copying the Invoicing Plan from the current PO line item to all the PO line items. This requirement will be possible if we get a Screen exit to create some custom sub-screens & add these buttons in that sub-screen to meet our Business requirement, the logic for which can be coded in the Screen Exit. For meeting this requirement, there is a Screen Exit in the below enhancement from T-Code SMOD 
Enhancement: MM06E005 - Customer fields in purchasing document
Screen Exit: SAPLXM06. For more clarity refer the below link. I hope it will resolve your issue. Thanking you.

Problem with scheduling planned orders in MRP

There is a problem with scheduling planned orders in MRP. SFG is assigned to the BOM of FG. No inhouse production time maintained in the material master of SFG & FG. routing maintained for both . In OPU5 scheduling & capacity reuiremnts tickmarked for detailed scheduling. Scheduling level - via detaied scheduling. Scheduling type - backward. Adjust basic dates , adjust dep. req. to order start set. In MD02 , scheduling is via ' lead time scheduling'.
My problem is the start date & time & finish date & time is same for planned orders of FG & SFG in the detailed scheduling tab of the planned orders. (Duration is same because of same capacity requirements on the same work centre. But how is the finish date same for both SFG & FG?)
(Capacity requirements are being generated.)
What could be the problem ?

Dear,
By scheduling the routing and maintain lot size dependent time in material is best practice and result of scheduling will be consistent.
If you want SFG before FG you need to define lead time offset in BOM or need to maintain the floats before production.
Hope clear to you.

Loading framework orders with invoicing plans...

We have had a request to load framework orders with invoicing plans from a spreadsheet. I'm sure this is possible if we write something, but I was wondering if anything already existed in SAP to do this. If not, has anyone written something and what were the hurdles they encountered.
Jas

You can use LSMW for this process..
Record the Invoice plan update on one framework order by using the change PO transaction under LSMW process. Make the invoice plan selection an external input, then use your excel file as the external input file in LSMW and repeat the process as many time the number of Frame work orders you have to update

Downpayment with Invoicing Plan

Hello all,
I'm trying to make a downpayment to a Vendor based upon a Purchase order (PO).
Here folows the procedure reflected on the system:
1)Creation of the PO with one valuated material (quantity and amount) item.
in the item invoice, we can have invoice plan based upon % or amount. Therefore,
in the logistics invoice the quantity is not verified.
2)Processing the downpayment by MIRO, it appears as a negative value because there is
no special GL indicator. I do know that by F-48 I can assign the downpayment to the PO.
But, the tricky procedure is that I can't settle a condition at item level in order to
consider it as the downpayment (profit to the vendor) and reduced for the total of invoices.
3)When I do Goods-receipt (GR), it increases the stock quantity but I can't see the finantial
documents related. If I want to enter the logistic invoice, there is no quantity to verify.
Only the ammount is possible to verify.
We would like to enter the Downpayment based on one invoicing plan, but with GR/IV flag active.
If we can be able to do this, everything will work properly as they use in the ancient system.
We can also use a finantial item in order to deturn this problem, but this doesn't compensate
the finantial open items (this means that he has the same sign " - ").
Can anyone help us to solve this problem?
Thank you in advance very much!
Best regards,
Pedro Grabulho.

Hi ,
I give my thoughts on this .
1) I agree that if use F-48 for down payment , u won;t be able to do at the line item level . But u are entering only the Purchase order number as reference and there is no provision for line item . In this case also system won;t allow you to make payment beyond the purchase order value.
2) Once GR Based IV is flagged in the PO , it is not advisable to use MIRO for down payment.
Regards
Mani

Release strategy: problems after changing the price

HI Experts,
I have the follwing problem.
I´ve setup the release strategy for Purchase reqs.
The strategy includes 3 approval levels.
release indicator with changeability 4 and a value of 0,1% for the first two approval levels.
I´m able to release it, but if I release the first two appoval levels and change the Preq the release strategy goes back to the first level. Fine.
But the problem is now that I´m able to release the first level but if I try to release the second one I get a error message.
I guess the problem is the changeability - but how can I solve this issue?
The system have the cancel all approvals if someone changes the price.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Alex

HI RJ,
the exact message is "Release prerequisite not fulfilled".
The system should act in the following way:
Approval levels:
1. Supervisor
2. Manager
3. General Manager
1 and 2 is approved.
Then the requisitioner changes the price.
Release will be changeled (Releases already effected will be cancelled).
OK that work, now the release process starts with level 1.
1. Approved --> OK
2- try to approve and get the message "Release prerequisite not fulfilled".
1 and 2 have the same release indicator with 4 and 0,1%.
Thanks
Alex

PO release strategy LSMW with SM30_VV_T16FS_2

Dear Friends ,
Problem in Release strategy upload for PO release strategy.
We are making LSMW with SM30 for - VV_T16FS_2
Problem is that when we do recording actulat release codes come in , release prerequisites also come but as you know in that case we not prese ENTER , we need to click on Release prerequisite then only Release status comes.
There is some problem with OKCODE. Means as per my understanding system not takes full release startegy smoothly.

Hi ,
It is with help of ABAPEr , i dont know exactly but while designed LSMW some lines was ger dublicated and we removed it. thats it.

Problems with explain plan and statement

Hi community,
I have migrated a j2ee application from DB2 to Oracle.
First some facts of our application and database instance:
We are using oracle version 10.2.0.3 and driver version 10.2.0.3. It runs with charset Unicode 3.0 UTF-8.
Our application is using Tomcat as web container and jboss as application server. We are only using prepared statements. So if I talk about statements I always mean prepared statements. Also our application is setting the defaultNChar property to true because every char and varchar field has been created as an nchar and nvarchar.
We have some jsp sites that contains lists with search forms. Everytime I enter a value to the form that returns a filled resultset, the lists are performing great. But everytime I enter a value that returns an empty resultset, the lists are 100 times slower. The jsp sites are running in the tomcat environment and submitting their statements directly to the database. The connections are pooled by dbcp. So what can cause this behaviour??
To anaylze this problem I started logging all statements and filled-in search field values and combinations that are executed by the lists described above. I also developed a standalone helper tool that reads the logged statements, executes them to the database and generates an explain plan for every statement. But now there appears a strange situation. Every statement, that performs really fast within our application, is now executed by the helper tool extremely slow. So I edited some jsp pages within our application to force an explain plan from there (tomcat env). So when I'm executing the same statement I'm getting with the exactly same code two completely different explain plans.
First the statement itself:
select LINVIN.BBASE , INVINNUM , INVINNUMALT , LINVIN.LSUPPLIERNUM , LSUPPLIERNUMEXT , LINVIN.COMPANYCODE , ACCOUNT , INVINTXT , INVINSTS , INVINTYP , INVINDAT , RECEIPTDAT , POSTED , POSTINGDATE , CHECKCOSTCENTER , WORKFLOWIDEXT , INVINREFERENCE , RESPONSIBLEPERS , INVINSUM_V , INVINSUMGROSS_V , VOUCHERNUM , HASPOSITIONS , PROCESSINSTANCEID , FCURISO_V , LSUPPLIER.AADDRLINE1 from LINVIN, LSUPPLIER where LINVIN.BBASE = LSUPPLIER.BBASE and LINVIN.LSUPPLIERNUM = LSUPPLIER.LSUPPLIERNUM and LINVIN.BBASE = ? order by LINVIN.BBASE, INVINDAT DESC
Now the explain plan from our application:
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time |
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 101 | 28583 | 55 (0)| 00:00:01 |
| 1 | NESTED LOOPS | | 101 | 28583 | 55 (0)| 00:00:01 |
| 2 | TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID| LINVIN | 93709 | 12M| 25 (0)| 00:00:01 |
|* 3 | INDEX RANGE SCAN | LINV_INVDAT | 101 | | 1 (0)| 00:00:01 |
| 4 | TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID| LSUPPLIER | 1 | 148 | 1 (0)| 00:00:01 |
|* 5 | INDEX UNIQUE SCAN | PK_177597 | 1 | | 1 (0)| 00:00:01 |
Predicate Information (identified by operation id):
3 - access("LINVIN"."BBASE"=:1)
filter("LINVIN"."BBASE"=:1)
5 - access("LSUPPLIER"."BBASE"=:1 AND "LINVIN"."LSUPPLIERNUM"="LSUPPLIER"."LSUPPLIERNUM")
Now the one from the standalone tool:
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes |TempSpc| Cost (%CPU)| Time |
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 93773 | 25M| | 12898 (1)| 00:02:35 |
| 1 | SORT ORDER BY | | 93773 | 25M| 61M| 12898 (1)| 00:02:35 |
|* 2 | HASH JOIN | | 93773 | 25M| 2592K| 7185 (1)| 00:01:27 |
| 3 | TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID| LSUPPLIER | 16540 | 2390K| | 332 (0)| 00:00:04 |
|* 4 | INDEX RANGE SCAN | LSUPPLIER_HAS_BASE_FK | 16540 | | | 11 (0)| 00:00:01 |
| 5 | TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID| LINVIN | 93709 | 12M| | 6073 (1)| 00:01:13 |
|* 6 | INDEX RANGE SCAN | LINVOICE_BMDT_FK | 93709 | | | 84 (2)| 00:00:02 |
Predicate Information (identified by operation id):
2 - access("LINVIN"."BBASE"="LSUPPLIER"."BBASE" AND "LINVIN"."LSUPPLIERNUM"="LSUPPLIER"."LSUPPLIERNUM")
4 - access("LSUPPLIER"."BBASE"=:1)
6 - access("LINVIN"."BBASE"=:1)
The size of the tables are: LINVIN - 383.692 Rows, LSUPPLIER - 115.782 Rows
As you can see the one executed from our application is much faster than the one from the helper tool. So why picks oracle a completely different explain plan for the same statement? An why is a hash join much slower than a nested loop? Because If I'm right a nested loop should only be used when the tables are pretty small..
I also tried to play with some parameters:
I set optimizer_index_caching to 100 and optimizer_index_cost_adj to 30. I also changed optimizer_mode to FIRST_ROWS_100.
I would really appreciated, if somebody can help me with this issue, because I'm really getting more and more distressed...
Thanks in advance,
Tobias

Hi again,
Here ist the answer:
The problem, because I got two different explain plans, was that the external tool uses the NLS sesssion parameters coming from the OS which are in my case "de/DE".
Within our application these parameters are changed to "en/US"!! So if I'm calling in my external tool the java function Locale.setDefault(new Locale("en","US")) before connecting to the database the explain plans are finally equal.That might explain why you got two different execution plan, because one plan was obviously able to avoid a SORT ORDER BY operation, whereas the second plan required to run SORT ORDER BY operation, obviously because of the different NLS_SORT settings. An index by default uses the NLS_SORT = 'binary' order whereas ORDER BY obeys the NLS_SORT setting, which probably was set to 'GERMAN' in your "external tool" case. You can check the "NLS_SESSION_PARAMETERS" view to check your current NLS_SORT setting.
For more information regarding this issue, see my blog note I've written about this some time ago:
http://oracle-randolf.blogspot.com/2008/09/getting-first-rows-of-large-sorted.html
Now let me make a guess why you observe the behaviour that it takes so long if your result set is empty:
The plan avoiding the SORT ORDER BY is able to return the first rows of the result set very quickly, but could take quite a while until all rows are processed, since it requires potentially a lot of iterations of the loop until everything has been processed. Your front end probably by default only display the first n rows of the result set and therefore works fine with this execution plan.
Now if the result set is empty, depending on your data, indexes and search criteria, Oracle has to work through all the data using the inefficient NESTED LOOP approach only to find out that no data has been found, and since your application attempts to fetch the first n records, but no records will be found, it has to wait until all data has been processed.
You can try to reproduce this by deliberately fetching all records of a query that returns data and that uses the NESTED LOOP approach... It probably takes as long as in the case when no records are found.
Note that you seem to use bind variables and 10g, therefore you might be interested that due to the "bind variable peeking" functionality you might potentially end up with "unstable" plans depending on the values "peeked" when the statement is parsed.
For more information, see this comprehensive description of the issue:
http://www.pythian.com/blogs/867/stabilize-oracle-10gs-bind-peeking-behaviour-by-cutting-histograms
Note that this changes in 11g with the introduction of the "Adaptive Cursor Sharing".
