Billing data xfer to Accounting/COPA error "Std. Price"

We are/were having a problem with Invoices being released to Accounting. We received the K/834 error for no Std. Cost est. could be found for material.
We had some materials which (1) did not have a Costing view, or (2) had nothing in the Current Planned price on Costing 2 view of Matl. master.
The bigger question is: why is SAP allowing the original Sales order to be be created and delivered, and the billing document to be created, before blocking the creation of Accounting docs? Since we have COPA activated, wouldn't SAP have some way to prevent a sales order from being created if Std. Costing data is not correct or missing? Is there something in COPA or FI config that needs to be activated in order to prevent this problem from getting as far as the SD billing doc?
We originally had our Costing Key set to "Release standard cost estimate matching goods issue date", but when the Invoice could not be released to Accounting/COPA, we could not just do a costing run for the material in question since the date of the costing run/std. cost was greater than the Goods Issue date. We had to change the costing key assignment to just look at the "current std. cost estimate entry in mat. master".
We just want to prevent Sales order from being created if the material is not correctly costed. Any ideas?
Thanks.
Scott.

Hi Bishnu,
Check Points for Account Determination.
1. Ensure Cutomer master (Xd02)Sales Area Data- Billing Tab-- Acc Assign Grp ---Should be maintained
2. Material Master -
Sales Org-2----
Acc Assign Grp..Should be maintained.
3. In VKOA maintain
Application- V Chart of Accounts--Sales Org ---Acc Assgn Gp Of Cust -Acc Assgn Gp of Material-Acc Keys (ERL,ERS,ERF)----& G/L Account.
4. In ur Pricing Procedure i.e V/08... Maintain Reqt -2 corresponding to ERL,ERS,ERF. & Subtotal =9 in front of net total.
Revert for further clarification.

Error while billing document releasing to accounting.

Hi Experts,
Please give me possible reasons for below error while billing document releasing to accounting.
"Valuation with material cost estimate: error with product "500258045"
Message no. KE350
Diagnosis
In Profitability Analysis (CO-PA), the system tried to valuate a line item using the current standard cost estimate.
In order to determine the current plan period, the system needs to read the valuation segment of the material master.
The system has found that the current plan period is not filled forproduct "BDE98561002" in plant "9856".
Display material (View: Costing)
The system looked for the material cost estimate using costing key "ZK1", as defined in the Customizing settings for CO-PA.
System Response
The document cannot be processed.
Procedure
Contact your system administrator".
I have checked CKR1 transaction there were no cost estimates with KF costing status.
NOTE: Material Ledger Activated.
Please suggest the possible reasons and what to check?
Regards
Chandra.

Check the cost estimate that is mentioned against the Costing key ZK1 whether it exists in the system and as you are saying there seems to be no cost estimate for the said material.
Hence release the std cost estimate for the said materia using CK11n or CK40n

While releasing billing document to accounting getting error message

Hi Friends,
I have created new condition type -YES7 and assigned to pricing procedure YDE10K ,I am releasing billing document to accounting but while releasing to accounting document I am getting error messages as "Assign condition type YES7 in CO-PA"
if i double cilck this messages I am getting below descriptions.
Assign condition type YES7 in CO-PA
Message no. KE 391
Diagnosis
The system tried to transfer billing data to Profitability Analysis. However, an error was found in the assignment of condition types to CO-PA value fields. No entry has been made in the assignment table for condition type YES7.
System Response
The billing data cannot be posted to CO-PA if there is no entry as this would lead to differences between CO-PA and Financial Accounting. This is because this condition type posts to a G/L account (S400160).
Procedure
In CO-PA Customizing, make an assignment for condition type YES7 in operating concern EU01 under "Actual postings -> SD interface -> Assign value fields".
so please let me know how to rectify this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Ramkrishna

Posting date and billing date changes on release to accounting

Hello,
I wants to change invoive billing date (VBRK-FKDAT) automatically with current system date (SY-UDATE) when release to accounting invoice.

I can't find user exit for VF02-Release to accounting document process. (for change VBRK-FKDAT and BKPF-BUDAT)
Can you help me please?
Thank you
Gulay Celik

Dear Gulay Celik
Go to VTFL, select your item category for the combination of your delivery type and billing type and maintain routine 11 and save.
Now try to create a billing for which PGI has done already on the previous date and post the outcome.

Error through an identical billing date?

Hi experts,
I've the following problem.
I have a billing which consist of the total price of a project and 2 advance payments with identical billing dates. Both advancepayments have been made and processed by the financial accounting department. *The problem is if we try to send a ballance report to our customer the final amount is incorrect.
The reason therefore is that only one advance payment is subtracted from the total billing amount. But both advance payments are printed on the billing. *
Is there anyone around who had the same problem and a solution?
Thank you in advance

G/L account should be determined based on billing date .

I have a requirement where in for a certain condtion type the account determination should be dependant on billing date . If the billing date is before a specified date, the condition type shoud hit a specific account and if the billing date falls after the specified date, it should hit a different account. How can this be acheived ? Do we have a user exit for this requirement ?
For you info, the condition type is an accrual conditon type ..

Third party billing document ,''account determination error ''

hi,
i got problem, After creating the billing document, account determination error is coming.
Please help,
thanks

Hi,
Go to OB40 and assign you account to your combination if its not there.
It should be assigned to your chart of account number and sales organization.
Just do these setting and go to VF02 and press the green flag after giving you billing document number.
If everything is right then accounting document will be generated.
Otherwise some error will pop out then post that error over here.

Accounts determination error is coming while create billing.

Hi Experts,
Accounts determination error is coming while create billing for Account Assignment Group A4 . In some cases only this error is appearing . I m a ABAPer I got this case and I m debugging the code . Can anyone suggest me what all the things i need to check to know the root cause . This error is coming very rarely but I want to find the reasons. I saw some of scn post bt it was not clear .
Please suggest briefly what w'd be the probable cause of this error and how to correct it.
Thanks in advance

Hi Dharmkrit,
In one of your earlier posts, you have mentioned that you have assigned G/L accounts by selecting table 1. This is probably where you might be going wrong.
Please follow the below steps to cross check your entries and you should hopefully have a solution.
(1) First of all, start from the account determination procedure and check which procedure is assigned to the billing type.
(2) Check the account determination type that is maintained in the procedure.
(3) Check which access sequence assigned in that condition type
(4) Check which table/tables have been maintained in the access sequence
* In most probability, you would have maintained a different table in the access sequence while you are trying to assign your G/L accounts to some other table
* Also, since you say that this error is only for a particular account determination type, check if you have maintained the correct combination of application/chart of account/Customer account assignment group/material account assignment group/G/L account in the correct table. However, this combination of fields depends on the table that you have used in the condition technique.
I suggest that you write your entries down while checking the flow. This will give you a clear picture if a connection is missing somewhere in the condition technique.
The customer/material account assignment groups are just keys (two digit codes) and their determination has nothing to do with Z1/Z2/A1 or any other code that you have defined in the system. The main determination is purely based on the condition technique and how correctly you have maintained the connections between the tables, access sequences, types and procedures. Just recheck these entries and you should be able to resolve the issue.
Hope this helps

Sumita Mittra

Error on field billing date in VF02

Hi Gurus
There is an error on field billing date in SD invoice,the field is VBRK-FKDAT.
When the user has reversed the original invoice, the invoice billing date has been changed by reverse invoice date.
I don't know the reason, it is first time that the system is working in this way.
Is there a way to change directly the field billing date?Can i act on table VBRK in some way?
I have already tried to change in debug the table VBRK but doesn't work.
Thanks in advance

Hey,
Nicolas' reply is correct.
And in case you could not maintain the relevant table and want to undo the
check against the check table for some chars you have to remove the check
table from table TKEF and afterwards regenerate the check routine RK2FGPKE.
I will explain this more in detail on the basis of an example: imagine you want
to get rid of the check table for char WW123. You must then proceed as follows:
1.) Remove the entries for fields CHTAB and CHFIE from the TKEF record
    for WW123 (that means FIENM = WW123) so that these fields are after-
    wards initial in table TKEF for the WW123 record.
2.) Execute function module RKD_SHORT_TEXT_GENERATE for APPLCLASS = KE
    so that program RK2FGPKE is regenerated.
But please be careful about this workaround and test it throughly in your DEV or QAS
system before apply in PRD system.
Best Regards

Billing Document Releasing Problem with COPA

Hi,
While releasing the billing document,it is not releasing to accounting and giving the below error log.
Error Message number -KE/AD713
Note:
In the below error log it is saying that to activate the +/- sign in KE4I.But for some billing documents it didnot give any error like below.Why it is asking only for this billing document? Kindly help me.
Diagnosis
    When condition "ZSCM" (application "V") was transferred to the value field "VV139" in operating concern "AFCO" in Profitability Analysis, the following became apparent:
1.The condition can take both positive and negative   values
2.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.
Supriya

Hello,
The answer resides within your question itself.
Where you have assigned your condition type in log i.e., ZSCM, make sure that you have ticked +/- tick
IMG ==> Profitability Analysis ==> Flows of Actual Values ==> Transfer of Incoming Sales Orders
Assign Value Fields
Where you will find +/- check box. Make sure that you have checked the same.
Note: That the indicator transfer +/- is not used to compare the different use of plus or minus signs between FI or SD and CO-PA. If you activate the indicator, only the positive and negative values for the condition in question will be balanced. This guarantees that the sum of the negative and positive condition values are displayed as a correct total value in the value field assigned to that condition.
Tip: In order to perform transfer conditions from the billing documents the same definitions must be established for the vlaue fields in Profitability Analysis and both pricing and condition types must be defined in SD.
Please also read SAP note 52849 in this regard.
Regards,
Ravi
