Billing Form in Quotation for Service

Dear experts:
I am confused by the functionality of quotation for customer service. Consider the following two scenarios:
1. Flat-rate
- In a service order, billing form 01 for fixed rate is used. No service product is entered. Planning is performed.
- Using transaction DP80, a quotation is created.
- The quotation is accepted. A debit memo request is automatically created and it is relevant for billing.
- Service order is released and confirmed.
- Using transaction DP90, a second debit memo request is created. It is statistical and not relevant for billing. This is expected as fixed rate billing has already taken place using the first debit memo request.
2. Cost-based
- In a service order, billing form 02 for costs is used. No service product is entered. Planning is performed.
- Using transaction DP80, a quotation is created.
- The quotation is accepted. A debit memo request is automatically created and it is is relevant for billing (?)
- Service order is released and confirmed.
- Using transaction DP90, a second debit memo request is created. It is however also is relevant for billing.
I do not understand why it is possible in the second case to create two debit memo requests relevant for billing. It seems more logical to me that the first debit memo request is statistical in a cost-based situation. Has anyone similar experience ?
With regards,
Dan

Hi Philipp:
Good to know that I am not alone.
In the mean time, I have tried looking up whatever SAP documentation I could find concering this topic. The information provided in the SAP Documentation link below mentions that, "if you perform resource-related billing, the billing request has no further purpose".
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/96/b1c33716b19139e10000009b38f842/frameset.htm
I honestly find it unacceptable to have such a meagre solution where two billing requests can be created. The users finds it simply confusing to tell which billing request is to be billed and which not.
I am exploring the possibility of using an SD userexit to overcome this. It involves altering the proposed item category in the billing request based on the billing form. In the case of cost-based billing, a statistical item category would be proposed. Billing is thus avoided; however, the billing request itself would always have the status "Open".
With regards,
Dan

  • Billing Plan and Promotions for Service Agreements

    Hello Friends,
    We have a requirement here, that we want to sell a 1 Yr Service Agreement (Price of $1200) on a promotion who ever buys this service agreement will not be billed till three months (for evaluation purpose) and say if they like it and want to continue with this agreement then on the begining of the Fourth month they will be billed for the remaining portion of the service agreement ( i.e. $900). in a way that means they will get a 25% discount on this service agreement and remember the bill will be only one time i.e. in the fourth month for an amount of $900 and also this promotion should last only till the end of this year.
    Any thoughts on how we can configure for this, your help
    will be greatly appreciated
    Thanks

    You will require two service contract document types. The first (say contract type SC) which uses milestone billing and the other (say ZC) which uses periodic billing.
    The second one should be generated as a follow up action of the first at the end of the first year.
    Ensure that the milestone billing allows you to bill 25% in the first installment. You can ofcourse block this one. The second one should allow you to bill 75%. This will not be blocked.
    If the customer does not terminate the contract during the first quarter you bill the customer for the second billing item.
    Once this contract has ended you can create another contract which will use the periodic billing which is simple quarterly billing which is what I think u require.
    Next, the item category is an area you might have to think on. You may be able to create the same contract type if u can create the same material with a different item category so that in the same document type u can create first an item with milestone billing and the second with periodic.
    Most probably this will meet your requirement. Please vet this with the FI/CO guys to check how it reflects their G/L accounts.
    Let me know if u need any more tips.
    thanx

    Hi ,

    Regards
    NPB

    There are different steps to be done for that.
    1. Create DIP Profile in ODP1 & check the consistency in ODP2 - DIP will be used to bill the customer based on resource (labor & material) usage. Creation of DIP profile has been discussed many times in this forum. Please check.
    2. Assign the Quotation document type & Billing type used in DIP profile to your sales area - Your document type should be assigned to your sales organisation, distribution channel & division combination.

    Hi Ram,
    NACE is the Tcode used to link the Application type, Output Types and its processing Routines like ( Driver programs and attached Script forms or Smartforms).
    You should know the Application of a document first Like:
    for PO it is EF, for sales Doc's it is V1, for Delivery docs it is V2, for billing Doc's it is V3 etc.
    so first select the Application type (ex: EF) for PO and press OUtput types
    then a list will come in that you should know the related output type for PO.
    in this case it is NEU,
    select that and click on the processing Routines button on the lft side
    it will display the Medium, Driver Program and the Script form or smartform related to that document..
    Check thses sites...

  • I cancelled my service, was charged for service which was not provided, and I am unable to find a way to dispute or to pay my bill.

    To begin, what ADA-compliant options are available to work with a service representative? I've never found the online chat service support to be available during my waking hours after checking over the last week. I can't find a contact email for support, either. I've been instructed on several occasions that I will need to make a voice call for customer service, but unfortunately, this will not be possible. I will require text-format assistance from customer support to address two issues which I am unable to solve on my own:
    1) I was charged for service following the cancellation of my service; this includes a period following cancellation during which no service was provided. After working with a representative in person, I was told that my final bill would be adjusted to reflect the legally billable amount. This was three weeks ago and I haven't received a response, and I haven't been able to find a way to pursue a resolution - What can I do to help move this process forward?
    2) It appears I will be unable to pay my bill after this dispute has been reviewed. My phone number is no longer with Verizon. The online bill payment login requires a phone number - I have never been provided with any other account number. Unfortunately, Verizon appears to close access to online bill payment when the phone number is transferred, even to accounts with unpaid invoice amounts. How can I pay my bill online?

    1) I was charged for service following the cancellation of my service; this includes a period following cancellation during which no service was provided.  Service is normally billed through the end of the billing cycle, whether service is provided or not.  "Cancellations will become effective on the last day of that month’s billing cycle, and you are responsible for all charges incurred until then." After working with a representative in person, I was told that my final bill would be adjusted to reflect the legally billable amount. According to their legal docs, the "leagally billable amount" is through the end of the billing cycle. This was three weeks ago and I haven't received a response, and I haven't been able to find a way to pursue a resolution - What can I do to help move this process forward?

How can I pay my bill online?  You cannot pay online once the account is cancelled.  You will be mailed a paper copy of the final bill, and you can mail a check, or possibly call in and pay over the phone.  But online is no longer an option once the account is cancelled.

  • Internal billing for service

    Hi,
    I have a scenario..which i am explaining below
    My company has one sales organization and many divisions under it. Some divisions are service providing divisions. Service providing divisions give service to other divisions within the same sales organization. So how do one division bill the other division within the same sales organization.
    2ndly what configurations are required to configure a service sale ( basically order related billing). What would be the item category group in the material master. What are the other configurations required at document level, item category level and copy control level.
    Please let me know the process.
    Regards,
    Aju Joseph

    Your company is basically selling the services to Divisions. Thus divisions are customers. Therefore create CMRs for each of these divisions - Texas division, Chicargo division etc. are customers.
    Then Texas div. buys certain services by creation of sales order with SP = Texas div. and then you can bill them.
    For service -
    Material type is DIEN
    Item cat gr is LEIS
    Item category is TAD
    Schedule line category is CD
    Sales doc type is OR
    Billing type is F2
    copy control already present in standard functionality.

  • Double billing for service period july6th-

    Does anyone else have this issue?...I am being DOUBLE BILLED for service period july6th- august 5th. I already paid my bill online well before the due date, and did get a confirmation number for the payment made. The payment was deducted from my bank. However, today, I logged in to my account to see that I have a huge outstanding balance for the service period july 6th- august5th. The amount of the bill is even different than the bill that I paid for that service period.

    Yes I saw that on my account also. I did notice that the pmt due was past the due date (actually due the same time period as the last bill that was pd). How can that be when it shows my bill was pd in full at that time?  Also in reviewing this so called "bill" I noticed that they raised the rate again even after I changed my services to a newer oneand less expensive one. Going to call them in the morning as I should be billed once a month around the same time each month not twice for something I have already pd.  Also for the past several months internet, tv, phone and actual apps for this company have been very crappy too.  Moving so I'm sure this will not be my service provider after my move. Its getting worse not better.

  • Inter company Billing for service industry

    Hi,
    I never workded over inter company billing.Please suggest me what to do? I am in a service industry project where no delivery takes place.So how should i go about for intercompany billing configuration?
    Thanx in advance.
    Regardds,
    Satya

    Dear Satya,
    You can create the inter company bill with refrence to the service order
    To do inter company billing settings go through this IMG path
    IMG>Sales and Distribution>Billing-->Intercompany billing
    Process steps for normal inter company process with delivery.
    INTER COMPANY BILLING
    Definition:
    A company arranges direct delivery of the goods to the customer from the stocks of another company belonging to the same corporate group.
    To put in simple terms, Company code A orders goods through its sales organization A from Plant B belonging to Company code B.
    It is imperative that both Plants A & B should have the material. In other words, the material is created for both the Plants A & B + their respective storage locations.
    Sales Organizations and Plants are uniquely assigned to Company codes. It is not possible to assign either a plant or a sales organization to more than one company code.
    Sales organizations and plants assigned to each other need not belong to the same company code.
    In other terms, a plant belonging to Company code A & assigned to Sales Organization A can also be assigned to Sales Organization B of Company Code B. This enables cross company sales.
    PARTIES INVOLVED
    1) End Customer 2) Ordering Company code 3) Supplying Company Code.
    End customer:
    Customer who orders goods from the ordering company code.
    Ordering Company Code:
    Which orders goods from Plant belonging to Supplying Company code through its sales organization and bills the end customer.
    Supplying Company Code:
    Supplies goods from its plant to the end customer specified by the ordering company code and bill the ordering company code.
    CONFIGURATION SETTINGS
    Assign Delivery Plant of the supplying company code to Sales Org + Distribution channel of the Ordering company code in the Enterprise Structure.
    DEFINE ORDER TYPES FOR INTERCOMPNY BILLING:
    Menu path: IMG/ SD/Billing/Intercompany Billing/Define Order Types for Intercompany billing
    Assign Organizational units by Plant:
    Menu Path: IMG/ SD/Billing/Intercompany Billing/Assign Organizational units by Plant.
    Define Internal Customer Number By Sales Organization:
    Menu Path: IMG/ SD / Billing/ Intercompany Billing/ Define Internal Customer Number By Sales Organization:
    Creating / Showing Ordering Sales Organization as Internal Customer for Supplying Company code:
    Transaction Code: XD01
    The ordering sales organization is represented as Internal customer of Supplying company code.
    We need to create customer master in Account Group - Sold to Party and maintain minimum required financial & Sales Area data.
    This internal customer number has to be assigned to the ordering sales organization. Hence, the system automatically picks up this Internal customer number whenever there is Intercompany billing.
    PRICING:
    We need to maintain two pricing procedures RVAA01 & ICAA01. Pricing procedure RVAA01 represents condition type PR00 & any other discounts or surcharges that are meant for end customer.
    We assign Pricing procedure RVAA01 to combination of Sales area (Of Ordering company code) + Customer Pricing Procedure + Document Pricing Procedure of Sales document type.
    This pricing Procedure (RVAA01) is determined both at Sales Order level & Billing processing for the end customer. We maintain PR00 condition type to represent the ordering company code's price to the end customer.
    Condition records for PR00 are maintained using organizational elements of Ordering company code, end customer & the Material.
    Eg: Sales Org. of Ordering company code + End customer + Material.
    We also need to maintain PI01 condition type to represent costs to Ordering company code (in other words revenue to supplying company code). It is statistical condition type & meant for information purpose only.
    Condition records for PI01 are created with the following key combination:
    Ordering sales Org + Supplying Plant + Material
    Pricing Procedure ICAA01is determined at Intercompany billing processing level.
    Pricing Procedure ICAA01 - Pricing Procedure for Inter company billing is assigned to the combination of: Sales Area (of supplying company code) + Document pricing Procedure of Billing document type IV + Customer Pricing Procedure of the Internal customer.
    Pricing Procedure ICAA01 has condition type IV01 that represents revenues for Supplying company code in the intercompany billing.
    PR00 condition type also appears in Intercompany billing document. It is for information purposes only and does not have bearing on the value of the document.
    PI01 represented under pricing procedure RVAA01 is reference condition type for IV01 and the same is defined in the condition type IV01. Due to this these two condition types represent same value.
    The condition type IV01 in intercompany billing document represents revenue to the Supplying Company. But its corresponding condition type PI01 in the billing document to the end customer is shown as a statistical item meant for information purposes.
    In your requirenment there will not be delivery process in between service sales order and the intercompany bill so do the settings accordingly in the copy controls between service sales order type and inter company billing type.
    I hope this will help you,
    Regards,
    Murali.
    I hope this will help you,

    Hello,
    You may do a resource related billing from the service order,  but you need to maintain Resource Related billing profile in Service order --> Control tab. Once it is set you may generate the billing document (debit memo) from service order through DP90, provided the config is right.

    Hi,
    I am developing a report for billed service orders . I wanted to know what is the

    In the CRM_ORDER_READ function module we can see
    OBJTYPE = BUS2000117 ( For Service Confirmation)
    OBJTYPE = BUS2000116 ( For Service Order)
    How my report will fetch only those service order details which are billed ?

    OK, next step could be to have a look to see if Plant is checked (I think it might be) and if you so could create roles on groups of plants which represent each Sales area.  It's not perfect but short of changing the code (you could speak to an ABAPer to see if there is a user exit or enhancement point they could use) you could reduce some of your risk this way
