Requirement to bill customer before vendor invoice in third party processing

We have a requirement to bill a customer before the vendor invoice in third party processing. The reason behind this is because the vendor send invoices only once in a month and the customer cannot wait for so long to to receive their invoice from the business.
I saw some discussions that the third party processing with shipment notification can be used however when I check the business flow in that case I see the following.
A Third-Party Sales Order is created and a purchase requisition is generated automatically 
A list of purchase requisitions to be assigned is displayed 
The assigned purchase requisitions are converted into purchase orders 
The purchase orders are approved 
A statistical goods receipt is posted 
The vendor invoice is verified and posted 
The billing is created
It clearly says that the customer billing document is only possible after entering the invoice from the vendor. Which would be the best way to fullfill this requirement?

Do you mean the goods issue done by the vendor to the customer in the vendor system? And this quantity will be copied into our ( where the third party order is created) system?
No, MIGO done by in our company system only. May be you might have misunderstood because of  my sentence.instead of company i mentioned as Vendor.
For Vendor this process will become as standard sales and he will do PGI. However in our system we do MIGO .
Suppose the customer ordered 10 Qty. Vendor delivered 2 Qty wouldn't the above equation Order qty- MIGO qty= Invoice qty be 10-2= 8? but we should be really billing the customer only for 2 right?
No you have mistaken my idea, it was not a formula just i was giving example.
Billing qty is nothing but it is qty copies from source document to target document.
E
Goods receipt quantity less invoiced quantity
for example order qty is =10 and vendor delivered first time 2 qty to the customer and he billed our company for 2qty and we billed the customer for 2 qty.
And next time let us assume again Vendor delivered 4 more qty and billed us 4qty.And this time when you are billing the customer in VF01 system will propose the 4qty only( total goods receipt qty 6 - already invoiced qty 2).
Hope now you understood the meaning of E(goods receipt qty less invoices qty).
And did you try your requirement as mentioned in my first reply?
thanks,
Srinu.

  • Ship to party and vendor relation in third party process

    Hello Experts,
    I need your precious suggestions on my business requirement.
    When we create the third party sales order system creates the Purchase Requisition and further PO is created through purchasing department.
    Suppose in my third party sales order I have two items X & Y, and both need to deliver at two different ship to party XXX & YYY respectively. in order system determine plant 1000 for both materials based on plant determination (CMIR >> CMR >> MMR) and system generates PR.
    I know while converting the PR to PO system check Source list (ME01) to determine the vendor. my requirement is I want to determine Vendor based on ship to party in sales order. suppose ship to party locations for XXX and YYY are Bangalore and Pune respectively and in both place we have different vendor. Both vendor manufacture product X & Y. so I want system should pick the vendor according to ship to party.
    Is there any relation between ship to party and vendor which will work in third party processing ?
    Kindly explain how I can achieve this requirement.
    Thanks,

    I doubt this can't be achieved by SAP standard functionality. You may need to use user exit. Check Third party to purchase req user exit or purchase req user exit to fulfill the requirement.

  • WBS Element in customer and Vendor invoices

    Hi Gurus,
    Is it possible to have wbs element in customer and vendor invoices, which will allow to see project wise invoices in FI reports?? If yes, how? And if no, what is the general business process for such scenario???
    Thank You

    Hi Mohit
    I Believe this is possible yet not practical for the reasons there is no one to one match between WBS and Customers / Vendors. You can have multiple WBS for a single customer invoice / Vendor invoice.
    Expert advice will follow soon

  • Intercompany invoice not getting created in third party processing

    Dear Gurus !
    I am facing a problem in creating the intercompany invoice in case of third party order processing.
    In our organisation , for any type of sale two billing documents are creared :
    1) Commercial Invoice under the co. code for which sales org. is maintained at the sales order bookin level .
    2) Intercompany Invoice under the co. code in which plant is maintained which is used at the sales order level as delivering plant.
    So, as per the configuration req. for third party processing  , i have created Sales order ( with automatic Purchase requistion generated ) , Purchase order creation with reference to the Purchase requisition , goods reciept ( MIGO ) and invoice reciept ( MIRO ) , then billing doc. or commercial invoice ( VF01 ) with the generation of accounting document and finally the intercompany invoice ( VF01 ) .
    But i am facing the problem in final stage , that is , intercompany invoice creation .
    Error Message : No open billing quantity has been determined .
    I have checked the copy control for sales order to intercompany invoice and still not able to resolve it .
    Please reply which setting needs to be done for this .   
    Awaiting your response , that what copy control settings is required .
    Thanks .....

    Hi Buddi / Mahesh / Kiran ,
    It ' s good to see all of your opinion . But my problem has not been resolved .
    I am implementing third party processing in my organisation , where the customer is an export customer ( outside India ) . Hence , this is a merchant export .
    All the configurations / Customisations have been done for this process .
    The process is running fine till commercial invoice , but the problem is in intercompany billing doc. creation.
    I am again repeating - Error message : No open billing quantity has been determined.
    Explanation of the process :
    1) The order has been booked with item category TAS alongwith the item cat. group as BANS for the material used in the order .
    2) The sales area is 1020 / 30 / 35 . Here , 1020 is sales org . under company code 0079 , 30 is export's distribution channel and 35 is the division for components .
    3) The delivering plant used in the sales order is 1009 which is under co. code 0077. The price / condition record maintained for this material is in USD / EUR as it is a case of merchant export .
    4) The purchase requisition is generated automatically when the order is saved . It can be seen at VA02 - > Item details - > Schedule Lines .
    5) With the help of this PR no. , i have created a purchase order for vendor which is maintained under co. code 0077 asking for material in plant 1009 which we need to export / supply to the customer.
    6) The value of material per piece in the P.O. is coming from the material master record -> Accounting 1 view - > Moving av. Price .
    7) Now, the Purchase order is saved . With the help of this P.O. no. , goods reciept ( MIGO )is done .
    8) After MIGO , Invoice reciept or MIRO is done under company code 0077.
    9) After MIRO , customer ' s invoice is created through VF01 .
    Remember : This is an order relevant billing , no delivery or PGI will happen here because the material is not coming into the plant 1009 .
    10)The billing document ( order - related billing doc.) is created and the accounting document is also created under co. code 0079 in USD .
    Till this stage , everything is running successfully as per business requirement , but i am facing the problem in the final stage , that is creation of intercompany invoice under co. code 0077 which is in INR .
    In all other sales document types used in our industry , the process is same , that is : a) Sales order creation b) Delivery and PGI c) Billing doc. creation with accounting doc. under co. code 0079 and finally d) Intercompany invoice with accounting doc. under co. code 0077 and excise invoice creation with reference to intercompany invoice.
    In the above, problem is not there becuase orde is delivery relevant , hence copy control is maintained for interco. billing to delivery type.
    But in the new process , that is , third party processing , sales order relevant billing is done . so i suppose there will be a copy control for intercompany billing and sales doc. type , but i am not able to resolve it .
    Hence , please understand the process before suggesting .
    Thanks and awaits reply........

  • PO based billing in third party process

    How can the Sales Billing be based on the PO net price in a third party process?
    The copying requirements are set up with price source A = Purchase Order
    And the pricing type is = C (copy manual and redet. others)
    The billing quantity is = E (GR based)
    ...but still the billing net value seem to be taken from the sales order and not from the PO?
    We want to bill the customer whenever we have done partial goods receipts for the PO item.

    hi,
    in standard you have only limited possibilities (it's working only for VPRS).
    Let's say your condition is PR00 in the PO. If you wan't this in your billing document, you have to have it in your pricing procedure in the same line, with the same name and same text:
    PO
    n. 1. PR00 standard price
    invoice
    n. 1. PR00 standard price

  • Problem in third party processing billing document

    dear all,
    I am facing problem in creating the billing document for third party processing.
    The error is : Item category ZEXM TAS cannot be invoiced by using billing type ZFAZ.
    I think the problem is  in copy control for billing document item . Kindly tell the solution.
    Thanks...

    Dear Buddi ,
    Now , the billing document is getting saved after changing the copy control for item category.
    But , the system is giving error ( The accounting document is not generated ) .
    I have checked all the settings in VKOA against the account keys maintained in pricing procedure for this merchant exports case.
    One another problem related to this issue is : Which setting is required to capture the Price maintained in item - > conditions at the VA01 level in EUR or USD . I have maintained the condition record in EUR in VK11 , but still while making order , the error is coming mandatory condition type ZBPR( Basic Price ) is missing .

  • Third Party process - billing date change in Sales order / Customer Invoice

    Dear Friends,
    In Third Party Sales Process , as we are aware  billing is order related billing and it will become due only after vendor invoice is received.
                   My situation is in the original sales order billing date is eg: 01.02.2009 . The subsequent vendor invoice ( Invoice receipt done based on PR --> and PO)  has a later date eg: 05.02.2009 .
    This means that the customer biling can be done only after this date.  
    How the system behaves in this case wrt to the billing date ( 01/02/2009) of the original sales order.
    Regards
    Mahesh
    Edited by: Mahesh sap on Feb 4, 2009 8:55 AM

    Hi all ,
             Thanx all for your responses . But my case is a bit peculiar . Here the vendor invoice is coming by IDoc through EDI . When EDI flow is confirmed, the billing date is pushed ahead. As per billing calendar  in CMR the customer can be invoiced only on the last date of the month. 
    As a result if the original billing date in the sales order is Feb end, when vendor invoice received through EDI , the billing date is shifting to march end .
    Is it because the date of vendor invoice is causing this?  Obviously the customer billing date falls only after vendor invoice date.
    Regards

  • Customer invoice for Third Party return and Credit Invoice???

    Hi All,
    Business needs third party return with vendor & customer Credit invoice.
    I am fully aware that standard SAP does not support this scenario.
    I am looking any other best way to implement this scenario in sap, if any body has worked on this.. I am thinking in below line:
    Changing VBUK-FKSAK and VBUP-FKSAA by using program once vendor invoice generated... but not sure its impact in other area. one impact I can see its making cost negative in invoice.
    Another option tried is to delink vendor & credit invoice by using 'B' Billing relevance, This is generating zero invoice if billing block is removed & PO has been created..
    Please advice
    Regards

    Dear Neeraj L,
                   Can you explain the process more in detail?
    Because,in 3rd party - returns will occur only after Customer rejects the goods from the Vendor. then goods has to be returned from teh Customer , but not from the Vendor.
    You might thought of - Returns from Customer & then return to Vendor- which is std process? Doesnt it fit your requirement?
    But in this case, there is no sales order link to Vendor returns.
    Regards,

  • Duplicate invoice for third-party IR order

    The order items are 3rd party, IR, nonstock materials.
    The first invoice was created overnight on 04/28/2007 and that's before the invoice from the vendor was received (05/07/2007).
    The receive of the vendor's invoice triggered the second invoice on 05/08/2007.
    Both invoices are valid and identical, except for the SKU quantity that was zero.

    Hi,
    Normally in third party scenario,in copy control Billing quantity is maintained as
    F (Invoice receipt quantity less invoiced quantity).
    Means without miro we should not create customer invoice.
    In your case why the first invoice was created and how system allowed to create this ?
    So even if the second invoice was created it will create already created invoice,so in second invoice quantity has come zero.
    Reward points if useful

    Hi
    i have an issue on the way we manage return from third party order but maybe it can help you to know how we proceed
    third party order here is treated this way;
    sales order with TAS triggering PR and then PO......we do MIGO when good reach customer ..then MIRO and finally customer invoice..ok..nothing really extraordinary !!
    for the return we add a new item in the Sales order and then triggers a new PR..we go to our PO with ME22N and create a new item from the PR generated with the second sales order item
    We set the return checkbox in the second PO item...and then we do MIGO to indicate that stock has been returned to the supplier ..and create the MIRO to be refunded by the supplier and finally we create a G2S invoice to refund the customer ....
    it works good but...the overal status of the sales order remains "Being processed..." !! this is my problem and SAP do not want to help us coz a return flow on third party order is not covered by SAP in standard !

  • Invoice entry - Third party sales order processing

    The process is below:
    - Trading Company A, enters  a sales order at its system.
    - Production Company B, makes the delivery to the customer.
    - An invoice with respect to the delivery is created from Company A to the cıstomer and another invoice is created from Company  B to Company A.
    The revenues are posted to the related accounts at both companies. Do we have to enter incoming invoice for the purchase activity to be posted at the related accounts at Company A (trading company) or is creating an invoice from company B to A enough?

    - Production Company B, makes the delivery to the customer.
    - An invoice with respect to the delivery is created from Company A
    Comp A will not issue the goods, so you can not create invoice wrt: delivery, It should be wrt: Order.
    Once MIRO is done in Comp A: ( which is sent by Comp B against the delivered goods), then only you can create invoice wrt:SO, which is controlled in billing relevance - F Order related billing status according to Invoice (MIRO) quantity.
    Go through the threads: Third party order processing in the forum , will  help you alot.
