Billing date of the invoice

Hi,
I would like to ask where does the billing date of the invoice (billing type F2) is copied. Is it copied on the actual goods issue date? If that is the case, how about the billing date of an intercompany invoice ( billing type IV), from where does the billing date is copied? Thank you in advance for your help.
Kind regards,
Reyna Agustin

Hi Reyna,
Yes you got it right. For Billing type F2 the Billing Date is copied from the Delivery doc field called as Actual Goods Issue Date.
And I think in intercompany invoice (IV) too the Billing Date is copied from the delivery doc as the same is created from the Delivering Plant and F2 Invoice which is sent to the customer is prepared from the Ordering Plant based on the Sales order. The Date which it takes into consideration is from main menu> GOTO-> Header--> Sales (here refer Document Date & Pricing Date field.)
Hope the above answers your query.
REWARD if it helps you!!

Ajinkya

Billing date on rebill invoice

Hello,
This is a credit & rebill situation (due to tax error, for example). I'd like to be able to give the customer a new, corrected invoice with the same billing date as the original. However, if the credit & rebill is happening in a subsequent period to the original invoice I do not want to have to open the prior period. Is there anything in config that can allow this?
The 'credit memo with value data' checkbox is useful in this situation because it sets the ageing of the rebill to the same baseline date as the original invoice.
Is there anything similar for the posting/billing date?
If I create my rebill with a billing date in the past it hits VFX3. I can not release it to accounting without updating the billing date (which I don't want to do) or opening the prior period (which I also don't want to do).
Any thoughts or advice would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Rachelle

Hi Rachelle,
As far as I know, we cannot post an invoice in the past for accounting, if the relevant past peiod is already closed.
Opening a past period to post is not a recommended practice in accounting (if the month end closing is already done) and hence, you may have no alternative except to post this in the available latest open period (which may be the current period)

Hi,
Can you please let us know why the system has to check the billing date while cretion of excise invoice.
In Indian scenario, When you do PGI, that moment itself you raise an excise invoice( This is excise rule). In that case why the billing date and excise invoice date should be same?

If free upgrade is available to those who purchase after 6 June 11, Purchase should mean the order date or the invoice date or the delivery date?

Apple usually has gone by the invoice date, which is the date Apple usually considers to be the "purchase date" for warranty and other programs, but precise details for the Mac OS X 10.7 Up-To-Date program have not yet been released, so that may differ. We'll have to wait until they open the program to know for sure.

Milestone billing not splitting the invoice

Hi,
i specified Milestone Billing during a Sales Order but when i try to bill the customer using transaction VF01,
it bills the whole amount of the Sales Order even though i specified only 25% to be billed.
For example, i created a Sales Order with net amount $100, and specified in the Billing Plan for it
to invoice the customer 25% today. But when i do simulate the billing using transaction VF04, it
shows the invoiced amount as $100 instead of $25.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

Hi SHAMBHU SARKAR,
I got milestone billing to work by specifying billing type F2 under the 'Billing plan' tab in transaction VA02.
Also make sure that your 'Date Category' in the 'Billing plan' tab is set to 01 for milestone billing.
Otherwise, go to SPRO -> Sales and Distribution -> Billing -> Billing Plan ->.... to check that your settings are correct and that
you have assigned a Billing Plan to either your Sales Document Type or your Item Category depending
on whether you want to use milestone billing at header level or line item level.
Hope this helps.
Good luck!

Billing Date on IV invoice

Hi,
We are using intercompany scenarios frequently. We do have the POD relevancy from customers, once we get the POD confirmation date then only we can bill the customers using F2 billing type. As we are using Revenue Recognition we do have some logic (as per the agreement with the customers to get POD confirmation, Ex: transit time) and we run a back ground job to get the POD confirmation dates set on deliveries.
In most of the scenarios we do have the F2 and IV billing dates similar only.
But in few cases we have the IV billing date later one, when compared to F2 Invoice.
Ex: F2 billing date 01-12-2009, IV billing date 3-12-2009, in this case IV billing date should be as F2 date, In some countries like Italy this kind of behavior is not acceptable to the legal authority.
Because first of all we have to update the books with the incoming invoice (IV in this case) first and then we have to sell it to customers.
As this is not happening in all cases, I tried to find out the reason in all the ways like, debug etc, did not find any clue.
any idea from any one,
Thanks in advance,

Billing date as the Pricing date

Hi,
When im updating the Invoice using VF02 (Still the accounting entries are not posted), i want to change the Pricing date as the billing date.
What is the pricing type i should select to update the prices according to the billing date.
Thank U,
Uwanthi

hi,
Click on the update button in the conditions tab in billing and select carry out new pricing. this shoud resolve your problem. But Im usat warn you that you might loose out the valeus for the conditions which has been entered manually or in certain even some condition records maintained with some specific access could have issues.
Anyways, carryo ur new pricing is the solution for you problem.
If you want the same to happen every time, you can maintian the pricing type for the above mentioned one ( I think it is B) at tyhe item level in copy control settings
Thanks & regards,
Nithin

Do we have option not to refresh the data in AP invoice while copying from GRN and change the date of the invoice in SAP 9 PL 0

Hi
I have update tax details in GRPO but while copy to AP invoice system pick posting date/ document date as system date and if i change the date the screen refresh and the tax details i have updated it change. that i do not want.
Is there any option so that GRPO date will copy in ap invoice so that i need not to refresh the screen
regards
Ashish Garg

Hi,
Please provide an example for tax details. Make note on these,
1. Whenever copy GRPO to AP invoice, posting and document date is system date. This is default design system
2. If you change these dates in AP invoice, your payment to vendor leads to confusion.
For example:
You have received items on 25-03-2014. But vendor raised invoice on 03/04/2014.
Thanks & Regards,

There is a Order related billing. Now this Order type and Billing type is used by 30 RBUs.Now I want to do Collective billing for a particular RBU on last day of the month.

Setting a secure zone expiry date beyond the invoice date.

Is it possible to set the secure zone expiry date later than the invoice date? We're just looking at a way to let our members continue to have access for say 1 week after an invoice has failed so that they can log in and update their credit card details, possibly without seeing the 'access expired' message.
I've seen this behaviour on a site before, but I think that may have had something to do with the fact that it was a weekly membership site and that the invoices were already generated.
Cheers
Pat

Hey Gaurav,
This is for a monthly recurring subscription. What I was thinking was that if for example a user signed up on the 1st of the month that their SZ access expires on the 8th of the next month, but the invoice is still issued and paid on the 1st of the following month, and when the invoice is successfully paid the SZ access gets extended till the 8th of the next month - now that I've written it out like that I'm pretty sure this isn't possible, unless there is some setting that dev can see in the backend?

Invoice List - Calculation of the Billing Date

Hello,
I'm facing some problems by setting up the invoice lists in our system. I added a factory calendar to the customer who has to receive invoice lists and the field VBRK-FKDAT_RL is filled so I'm able to create the list.
My problem now is, that the system will ever use the Billing Date of the Real Invoice also as Billing Date for the Invlice List and if I try to create a list for e.g. four invoices created on four different days I will receive four Invoice Lists instead of one.
How can I control the billing date for the invoice list so that, e.g. the customer receive an invoice list for every quarter? Or monthly? Or..?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Kind regards
Sascha

Hello,
I know this is an old thread, and you were able so solve your problem.
Neverthless, since I had more or less exactly the same problem and was only able to solve it, for e.g. a weekly periodicity after some try and error, I wanted to present the solution for this invoice list periodicity:
Valid From      Valid To     Workday           Text
01.05.2014 06.05.2014    (not checked)    First week May
08.05.2014 13.05.2014    (not checked)    Second week May
... and so on.
It is important to EXCLUDE the day in the definition of the weekly periods, that the is supposed to be the next available invoice list date, which is then filled in the invoice Header (FKDAT_RL in VBRK) at the time of invoice creation.
At the same time I have all work days checked in the first screen of factory calendar maintenance.
Hope this is helpful for people running into the problem.
Cheers,
Steffen

Invoice List Consolidation with different billing date

Hi!
Want to consolidation different billing date billings into 1 invoice list!
but system will split it,
How can I do??
Thanks

Hi,
Please check note 317935 Invoice Split Criteria for Invoice Lists
Different Billing Dates for the invoice list from the original invoices will automatically cause invoices to split into multiple invoice lists. This is standard functionality. The primary way to avoid this is to enter a date as a default billing date in transaction VF21 or to modify the report from transaction VF24.
If you do not enter a default billing date and the dates from the individual invoices differ, than the invoice lists will be split into as
many invoice lists as there are different dates.

Alex
