Batch Number in Proforma Invoice

Hi All,
Our customer has a requirement for proforma invoice for order in export sales and they want to give a batch number and want to see it in proforma invoice before delivery. Is it possible to do it? and how to maintain it if it is possible?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Regards,
Sinan

Hi
If you determine batch in SO, you can populate the field CHARG in table VBRP for the proforma invoice with copy rules. But as usually batch is determined in delivery, if it's your case, I don't understand the reason to write batch in proforma invoice, because the reasonable is that the batch that you write won't be the same that you will send.
I hope this helps you
Regards
Eduardo

Adding new Batch Number to AP Invoice

i am working on adding new batch number to an existing AP IN by SDK function. I try the following codes, no errors prompt but also nothing updated. Can anyone advise me how to add new batch number to AP Invoice? Many Thanks!
Dim ErrMsg As String
Dim ErrCode As Integer
Dim opch As SAPbobsCOM.Documents
opch = oCompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oPurchaseInvoices)
opch.GetByKey(5)
opch.Lines.BatchNumbers.Add()
opch.Lines.BatchNumbers.BatchNumber = "3"
opch.Lines.BatchNumbers.Quantity = 3
ret = opch.Update
If ret <> 0 Then
      oCompany.GetLastError(ErrCode, ErrMsg)
      MsgBox(ErrCode & " " & ErrMsg)
End If

Hi ,
Steps to do:
1.Create an User Defined Field on Document Row Level:
Name: Serial / Batch Details
Type: Alphanumeric
Structure: Text
- Create a Formatted Search which will populate the data from Delivery note.
- Put the UDF into the Print Layout of Delivery Order.
Displaying Batch Details
2.   Decide with information is needed from Batch details to be printed out on A/R Invoice
On Bacth Details form (Inventory\Item Management\Batches\Batch Details) we can see all the possible details.
- Batch Number
- Delivered Quantity
- Expiration Date
3.    Build the formatted search SQL command.
By a SQL cursor driven result set we can build a text which contains the list of the delivered batch details separated by new lines. The relations between A/R Invoice and Delivery note is defined on A/R Invoice Form. in columns 45, 46, and 43
declare @batch as nvarchar(100)
declare @txt nvarchar(max)
set @txt = ''
declare P cursor for SELECT T0.[BatchNum] + space(1)
+ cast(cast(T1.[Quantity] as decimal(19,2)) as nvarchar)
+ space(1) + case when T0.[ExpDate] is null then '' else convert(nvarchar,T0.[ExpDate],102) end
FROM OIBT T0 INNER JOIN IBT1 T1 ON T0.ItemCode = T1.ItemCode and T0.WhsCode = T1.WhsCode
and T0.BatchNUm = T1.BatchNum
WHERE T1.[BaseEntry] =$[$38.45.0] and T1.[BaseLinNum] =$[$38.46.0]
open P
fetch next from P into @batch
while @@fetch_status = 0
begin
set @txt = @txt '\n'@batch +','
fetch next from P into @batch
end
close P
deallocate P
select @txt
4. Defined the formatted search on the A/R Invoice.

Batch Number on AR Invoice Printout

Hello Experts,
Can somebody please guide me, I have a requirement of having Batch number on AR Invoice Printout. I am unable to do that, help required please.
Thanks & Regards,

It is quite dificult to do so using PLD (you can show batches easily when reocrding an invoice which is not coming from an delivery, otherwise, batch data is stored in delivery tables).
I've done this using crystal reports. You can get batch information true sql or even Subreports (one take information when batch is recorded during invoice creation, another one takes information when batch is recorded during delivery creation), etc.
I recomend you to use Crystal Reports, definitively

Query on batch number in Invoice

Hi Experts,
I would like to get the batch number picked during the Delivery document and shown in the print layout in A/R Invoice. Unfortunately, PLD of Invoice with Batch will not show the Batch numbers as they're already linked in the DR document.
My workaround is to attach a FMS in the INV1 field line to get the batch number when the Invoice is copied from the DR.
Any help with the query is very much appreciated.
We are using 8.81 PL7.
Thanks,
Don

Hi Don..........
Please check this........
Select (Case When T1.BaseType=15 then I1.BatchNum else I11.BatchNum end) 'BatchNum', T0.DocNum 'Inv. No'
FROM OINV T0 INNER JOIN INV1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry INNER JOIN OCTG T2 ON
T0.GroupNum = T2.GroupNum LEFT Join INV12 T3 On T3.DocEntry=T0.DocEntry LEFT JOIN OITM T4 On T4.ItemCode=T1.ItemCode LEFT JOIN OCHP T5 On T4.ChapterID=T5.AbsEntry
LEFT Join DLN1 T6 On T6.DocEntry=T1.BaseEntry and T6.LineNum=T1.BaseLine
left outer join IBT1 I1 on T1.ItemCode=I1.ItemCode   and (T6.DocEntry=I1.BaseEntry and T6.ObjType=I1.BaseType)
left outer join OBTN T8 on T8.ItemCode=I1.ItemCode and I1.BatchNum=T8.DistNumber
LEFT Join WTR1 T16 On T16.DocEntry=T1.BaseEntry and T16.LineNum=T1.BaseLine
left outer join IBT1 I11 on T1.ItemCode=I11.ItemCode   and (T16.DocEntry=I11.BaseEntry and T16.ObjType=I11.BaseType)
left outer join OBTN T18 on T18.ItemCode=I11.ItemCode and I11.BatchNum=T18.DistNumber
LEFT Outer Join OWHS T20 On T20.WhsCode=T0.Filler
Run this query you get Invoice No. and its Batch.....
You may insert required c0olumns also.....

Delivry Challan/Proforma Invoice and Actual A/R Invoice Number sud b same

Hi.. Experts , Please read the following scenario :
my client wants to send the proforma Invoice to his customer at the time of delivery. He does not want to punch actual A/R Invoice at this stage reason some time his delivery gets rejected due to some reason. So he wants to be at safer side.
When the send goods is successfully delivered only then he wants to punch actual A/R invoice in the system with the same number of Proforma Invoice.
Solution I have given :
What I have done, I have prepared one more PLD named Proforma Invoice based on the Delivery document. the Number of this Proforma Invoice is based on manually entry number. when the goods is successfully delivered to the customer, Actual A/R Invoice with same Number (Proforma Invoice number) manually entered.
Please let me know whether this solution is suitable or not..
Regards
Rakhi

Hi Joseph
No there is no issue in document Number but I feel it would be bit tough to maintain document number manually in future because here I I have to punch A/R Invoice Number manully with the number of Proforma Invoice (delivery Document Number).
Lets say during delivery , the proforma Invoice number i punch is 3000 but this document number is not available for A/R Invoice. then how I will maintain this situtation ?

Batch Number in A/R Invoice

Hi All,
How do you print Batch Number of an Item in A/R Invoice PLD?
Thanks
SV Reddy

Hi SV,
i think directly will not get the batch no field in PLD,
sorry, i dont have any test(client) database. so try this way,
Table -> INV1 - A/R Invoice- Row
Column -> BatchNo.
or
Create the UDF and assign the FMS.
i think, (get the batch no)FMS is not possible on A/R invoice .
it is possible to Create the UPDATE Stored Procedure
but you should not write the UPDATE Stored Procedure in SAP database.
best way, Create the UDF and type the Batch No on A/R Invoice.
->> Open the A/R invoice(System) PLD and Save as the New PLD.
->> Create the UDF(Batch no) Field in Repetetive Area on PLD.
Save as and Run the Print Preview.
OR
Try to Create a Query Report and design a QPLD.
If you want to Create QPLD, Check the thread, will be get some idea or solution.

Proforma invoice number is not in the document flow of the order.

Hi all,
I have a doubt , if i create an proforma invoice based on order, and after that i create delivery and billing, i cannot able to see the proforma invoice in the document flow of the particular order. pls guide me on this
Thanks all
Kumi

Hi,
Goto VTLA, and check the UPDATE DOCUMENT FLOW in the copy control
If it is already set , then directly from sales order you can find the Proforma invoice .
Goto the sales order in VA02 and enter into the overscreen and from there check the document flow ( F5), now you can see the Proforma invoices.

Proforma Invoice program ---delivery related with billing block on SO

Hi,
I need some help on Profoma Invoice--delivery related.
I have created a Sales order with Billing block, then created delivery and picking,handling but no PGI.
Now I am trying to create a Proforma invoice for delivery (before PGI ),
I can create the Proforma invoice manually using VF01 by selecting the document type and by delivery number input in the docs selected.
But I want to create the proforma for the above mentioned scenario using batch job, I have tried both RV60SBAT and SDBILLDL but both of them are not working.
Both the program are fetching delivery for proforma creation if PGI is done (Even though the billing block is set on Sales order)
or Billing block is not there on Sales order if PGI is not done.
Thanks and Regards,
Ananda

Hi,
The programs below are for the specified transactions below.
"SDBILLDL" program is for the transaction "VF04" which is for creating the Final invoice(Original Invoice) i.e. Billing due list.
Where as "RV60SBAT" is for the T.Code "VF06" which is for creating the invoice in background.
So these two programs will not create proforma invoices.
Incase if you have only proforma invoice not final invoice,then maintain this proforma invoice type in "VOV8" T.Code under order/delivery-related billing.thwn you can create Proforma invoice by using Vf04/VF06(By using these programs).

Krishna.

Line Item Problem in while Proforma Invoicing in case of STO

Hi All,
The problem is related to Line Item Quantity in Proforma Invoice which is explained with an example -
When we are doing Outbound Delivery for STO ( Stock Transfer Order ) we have the batch-split function where 2 line generates for a single line item material A in which in the first line no delivery quantity and value gets reflected and in the second line for the same material the delivery quantity gets reflected with batches. Then we save the order and done PGI. After that while doing the proforma invoice there also again the 2 lines appear for the single material A where the first line doesn't contain invoice quantity and value and show as 0pcs.In the second line for the same material it shows the invoice quantity with value. I want to remove this first line for the same line item from proforma invoice and want the system to generate only one line for the line item containing the invoice quantity.
Point to be noted that this thing doesn't happen for normal sales cycle done through Sales Order.
I have also checked with the Item Category NLN where i have tried the Billing relevance N - Pro Forma - no zero quantities (including main batch items) and L - Pro Forma - no zero quantities. Still the same problem is arising.
What is the problem here and how can it be solved?
Looking forward to some valuable suggestions
Thanks & Regards
Priyanka Mitra

check for your batch item cateogry,,, maintain the batch item cateogry setting same as it is ther in case of normal sale cycle. or what you can do ,,,copy your batch item cateogry and create a new batch item cateogry for your STO delivery .
i did it and it is working fine for me. please check the batch item cateogry and matain it the same way.
cheers

Zero Qty line elimination in Stock Transfer Proforma Invoice

Hello all,
We are making Stock Transfer Order between two plants within the same co code (ME21N). We are having automatic bacth determination at delivery level (VL10B). Automatic batch determination generates one header line without qty and others with qty. During Proforma invoice creation, all the rows (including zero qty row of header level batch) from delivery are getting copied into the proforma invoice. I want the system to copy only those rows having qty greater than zero from delivery in to proforma invoice.
In case of normal sales invoice this problem is not occuring.
I need your advice on the above mentioned problem.
Thanks in advance.

This explanation is not in detail and hence I am not clear about your configuration settings.
First go to IMG Logistics-General => Tax on Goods Movements => India => Business Transactions => Outgoing Excise Invoices => Assign Billing Types to Delivery Types.
There ensure that you have assigned the billing type JEX (assuming that you are using the standard) to your delivery type NL.
Perhaps, you can also try with "D" for your item category in Billing Relevance field but I am not sure this will solve your issue. Try in development client.
