Billing Index

Hi,
What is meant by billing index ?
and
Where it is being used
Regards,
Kannan. M

Kannan,
Billing Indices are usually created to facilitate faster system performance. It would be very time consuming to search for each and every order and bill it. Hence as and when a transaction (like order save, delivery or PGI) is completed, the system checks if the order is now ready for billing and once it is ready, adds it to the billing index.
The billing run now checks only for items / orders in the billing index and creates the billing documents. Once the billing document is created, it is removed from the billing index.
Using index the system saves lot of time / efforts

Rebate relevance and Billing index recompilation

Hello
I am in the process of building the configuration for the system, particularly rebates.
Initially the sales org was marked for rebate relevance, later unchecked and now checked once again.
No rebate agreements have been created in system.
3 billing documents have been created (belonging to billing type not relevant for rebates) which have not passed to accounting.
Do I need to run the billing index program under the above circumstance ?
Thanks and Best Regards
cds

Hello,
the rebate index table VBOX is updated when a billing documents is released to accounting, and it has:
- Sales org. relevant for rebate
- Payer relevant for rebate
- Billing type relevant for rebate
NO MATTER if rebate agreement exist or not.
In this case, if there are not billing documents with thoese characteristic released to accounting, then is not necessary to rebuild VBOX.
Best regards,
Ivano.

VF01 Determine Billing date for billing index and printout to current date

Hi
we need to determine the Billing date for billing index and printout to current date
What can I do to determine automatically at the time of creation current day to Billing date for billing index and printout?
please let me know
Best Regards,

Hi Beatriz ,
You have two options here. you can chose either of these solutions:
1.
A. T-Code: VTFL ( if using del related billing) For the billing document and delivery, at item level assign the copying requirement 011 or if you are currently using some other routine then you can use following in that
VBRK-FKDAT = SY-DATUM.
B. T-code VTFA (if using order related billing)
Similar to A, using copying requirement 011.
2. You may also try option of Checking in the User Exit for the Program RV60AFZA & RV60AFZA.
Please let us know if this helps

Billing Index for Rebate agreement

Hi ,
When i m activating the rebate agreement for a particular Sales Organization and saving it, system asks if we need to recreate the billing index.
Can anybody please help me to know its purpose and impacts ??
Regards,
Manish

Hi Manish
System will ask to recreate the billing index if any billing documents are there for that sales organization.So you have to run the report RV15B001 which will be for the payer also.
It will update the old billing documents of that sales organization also

Sd billing index table

Hi,
q1 ) what are index tables.
q 2 )specifically I want to know abut the functionality of sd index table VKDFS. What this table does?
regds

All SAP database table have one or more indexes. The key index is based on the table key fields, and other indexes are provided as required. The index is used by the system to access data in the table with the quickest time. If you try to read a table without supplying any of the index fields, the database will read the table one row at a time until a matching row is found. If the table has a lot of records it can take a very long time to access the required data. SAP programmer always trys to read table using the key or index fields for the best performance.
In some cases SAP provides additional tables for specific purpose called index tables. In this case VKDFS is used as billing initiator. When you want to view the billing due list (transaction VF04, then the system uses this table to list the dcouments due for billing. Although it is possible to analyse the documents due for billing by reading the status of the sales documents, this would take a long time to analyse all sales orders especially as many will either not be due for billing or already billed. This table is filled as you process the sales documents, so that th e system always has an up to date list of the items due for billing in this table. As the table has fields specified such as billing date, sold-to, sales org in the key, the peformance of the billing due list (VF04) is very fast when using any of those key fields.

Billing index table VKDFS

Hi all,
we have a rquirement that if we make invoices for two deliveries, the system should make only one invoice. but the system did not allowed to make one invoice since the ship to party is different in both the deliveries. so we did coding in structure XVBPAK in include RV60AFZD to make ship to party equal during runtime and we were able to combine invoices.
sold to party/payer is same in sales order for the delivereis....
now things work well in invoice creation through VF01 mode but deliveries are no combining in background invoice creation mode through VF06 or Vf04.... why ???
somebody told us to see table VKDFS for background processing .he entries in this table are updated before invoices are created and after invoices are created, this table does not store any entires for the deliveiry nos.
when we saw table VKDFS, the ship to party is different, so we thought of making ship to party equal too here using exit V05IEXIT.. we have made ship to party/it's address equal here tooo but still our delivereis are not combining in background invoice creation mode.
what is the reason that invoices combine in foreground mode and not in background mode.we know dueing background processing system uses program SDBILLDL.

Dear Sonu,
we are also facing the same problem. Could you please share the solution for the issue.

Hiding the cost column in Billing document

Hi,
We have a requirement to hide the COST column in transaction VF01, VF02; VF03.Please let me know if any body has any clues.
In the current system there are two companies.
Company 1 Users should not see cost; Company 2 Users has to see the cost.
I have two options:
Option One:
We can hide the cost column by changing the screen variant.
Impact:
This is hiding total system so that both the users can not see the cost .
This is not accepting by IT team.
Option two:
We can define new transaction copy of VF01, VF02, and VF03. (Transaction Variant)
That will be ZVF01, ZVF02, and ZVF03.For this new transaction we can create a screen variant to hide the cost Authorization to assess of VF01, VF02 and VF03 will be removed to Company 1 users.
Impact:
If we remove the authorization to VF03 to customer service people.
Through document flow customer service user cannot see billing document. They need to enter ZVF03 to see billing document.
This solution is not accepting by Business (Customer service).
It will be great full if someone can through some light on this.
Thanks in advance.

Billing docs are 2x posted to accounting

Dear all,
I am currently struggling with the following problem - would be great if somebody could help me with ideas about the root cause:
VBRK-RFBSK -- 'Posting status'
Accounting relevance of export billing docs was set to D -- 'not relevant' due to wrong programming.
We have manually corrected RFBSK-status to A -- 'Relevant for accounting'.
T-code VFX3 -- 'Release billing documents for Accounting'
The documents could be posted to accounting some weeks ago. Now I was informed that billing documents were posted twice to COPA / FICO, causing a dysbalance as turnover was booked twice. Creating a credit note cannot be considered due to manufacturing costs etc.
Solution proposal from COPA support
...was to revert everything down to the deliveries, and then to create a correct billing document.
But reverting 1 document should of course correct 2 bookings! My expectation is that the billing index was not correctly updated when VBRK-RFBSK changed to C -- 'Posting document was created'. So the system ignored that posting was already done. (I am not sure about that, as I am not familiar to FICO / COPA processes).
Thanks again for your valuable help!

Billing document enhancement

I have to add three new items in the "Billing document's" table control. The data from the table control in Tcode VF01 is written into the table VBRP. All the three fields are customer created fields, They have no previous data at all. But all the new details that are going to be created must be recorded in the table from now on. So we have to create these fields in the table too. All the Tcode for billing document VF01(Create), VF02(Change), VF03(Display) Should be updated to the same. How am i suppose to do it both on the screen and the table... If it relates to enhancement plz tell me the steps i need to follow.

How to Generate the Dates of Billing Plan Contract

Dear experts,
Need your advice on this.
I have a requirement to create a program to update the Billing Plan of contract. It will run in background and update the end date (billing plan), then generate the dates ( Settlement Date for Deadline, Billing date for billing index and printout, etc ..).
I have managed to change to end date using 'BILLING_SCHEDULE_READ' and 'BILLING_SCHEDULE_SAVE', but I couldn't generate the dates. I've searched sdn and still, no luck. I've tried 'SD_SALES_BILLINGPLAN_CHANGE' with no result. I've also found 'RV_SALES_DOCUMENT_UPDATE', but I dunno how to fill-in all the parameters.
Please help .. I have run out of ideas ...
Thx..
