Billing plan type
hi
i am trying to process a billing plant with mile stone billing where a customer pays a down payment 0009 and then pays the rest of the amount after delivery 0008.
the customer puts a down payment of 10% or 100
when i try to process it with 0008 closing invoice it brings in the complete amount of $1000 instead of $900
how am i supposed to handle such requests? am i doing the right thing?
Hi
If you want to have down payment of 10% and the rest 90% in the final invoice then there is no need to process down payment request using the billing type FAZ. You can directly process the down payment with the billing type F2 instead of FAZ.
If you want to use down payment request process seperately then we need to clear the down payment in the final invoice by reducing the 10% from the final value and adjusting it against the already posted down payment in the FI since the down payment request will posted with special GL indicator in FI.
So you can either choose to have down payment process (10% + 100%) or a simple process of having down payment and final invoice (10% + 90%).

Define dateline category during maintenance of billing plan type
Hi, I am in the midst of setting up the SD configuration in my current system from scratch and this is the error message that I have encountered, "Define dateline category during maintenance of billing plan type". Basically, what I have done is to create a contract using tcode 'VA41'. This error happened on the second screen after inserting contract type, sales org, distribution channel and division. any guru out there, pls advise. Thanks!!!
Regards
AndyHi!! Andy,
Dateline category controls data such as the billing block and the billing rule at the billing date level of the billing plan.
We assign a date category to billing plan in t.code OVBJ. check the assignment, make them if neccessary.
Hope this will solve your problem.
Regards,
PATHIK
Dear Andy,
Please check & maintain the enteries in t.code OVKK.
Do give your feedback.

Sir ,
I have a need of Billing plan type configuration step by step,i have tried to configure throgh glenc willams but i couldn't able to understand.
Kindly send me the configuration of billing plantypes and explain me in which situation these are applicable.
Thankig uMilestone billing means distributing the total amount to be billed over multiple billing
dates in the billing plan.
As each milestone is successfully reached, the customer is billed either a percentage of
the entire project cost or simply a pre-defined amount.
During sales order processing, the system determines from the item category whether a
billing plan is required and, if so, which type of plan
The type of billing plan that is determined at this point is set up in Customizing and
cannot be changed in the sales document.
Billing plans for periodic billing and milestone billing plans for project-related milestone
billing have different overview screens so that you can enter data relevant to your
processing.
For example, for milestone billing, you must be able to enter data to identify the
individual milestones.
IMG configuration requires :-
1. Maintain billing plan types for milestone billing in OVBO.
2. Define date description in SM30 - V_TVTB.
3. Maintain Date Category for Billing Plan Type IN OVBJ.
4. Allocate date category in SM30 - V_TFPLA_TY.
5. Maintain date proposal for Billing Plan Type in OVBM.
6. Assign Billing Plan Type to Sales Documents Type in OVBP.
7. Assign Billing Plan Type to Item Categories in OVBR.
8. Define rules for determining the date in OVBS.
Milestone billing is typically used for billing projects, such as plant engineering and
construction projects. Such projects often include a series of milestones that mark the
completion of different stages of the work. In the SAP R/3 System, milestones are defined
in a network along with planned and actual dates for the completion of work. The milestones
are also assigned to the billing dates in the billing plan.
Each milestone-related billing date is blocked for processing until the Project System
confirms that the milestone is completed.
Delivery-relevant order items for which a milestone billing plan applies are billed on the
basis of the requested delivery quantity and not on the total of the confirmed quantities.
The connection between the project and the sales document item is made in the individual
schedule lines of the item. Each schedule item can be assigned to a network in a project.
To display the project-related data for a schedule line, proceed as follows:
In one of the overview screens of the sales document, select
1. Item -> Schedule lines.
2. Mark the schedule line and select Procurement details.
The following figure shows an example of milestone billing where only the Contract have
been billed :
Order Item Turbine 100,000
Billing Plan
Billing date Description % Value Billing Block Milestone Billing Status
01-10-94 Contract 10 10,000 - x x
01-03-95 Assembly 30 30,000 x x
01-04-95 Maintenance 30 30,000 x x
01-05-95 Acceptance 30 30,000 x x
01-06-95 Final invoice .. .. x
Network/Activities
Milestone Estimate Actual
Assembly 01-03-95 01-03-95
Maintenance 01-04-95
Acceptance 01-05-95
For each billing date in a milestone billing plan, you can specify whether the billing
date is:
1. fixed
2. always updated with the actual date of the milestone
3. updated with the actual date of the milestone, if the date is earlier than the
planned billing date for the date -

How to link sales order and billing plan?
Hi,
Based on a sales order how can I know the billing plan? I tried to search for some posts, but could not find one with one exact answer regarding this.
Thanks,
Best regardsHi,
In "OVBP" T.code,you can find the billing plan assigned to a sales order.
The path is:
SPRO>Sales and Distribution>Billing>Billing Plan>Assign the billing plan type to the sales order.
In two ways we can assign this billing plan to order.
One is the above mentioned one.
Another one is to assign the billing plan type to the item category using the T.Code "OVBR".

Billing plan reference joined to a material number
Hello to all
We have to join material number with a billing plan reference before the creation of the sales order.
The issue is that you can join a billing plan reference(with the distribution of the amount between the different dates in a percent) with different material numbers. So when you create a new sales order and you put a material number, the sistem will fill the billing plan.
In the standard system you can create a billing plan reference only in customising and joined to a billing type plan.
Is it any standard o development so I can have this relationship?
Thanks in advance
RegardsHi Tonnetti
Billing plans are controlled by item category. In Customizing for Sales, you can specify that individual item categories are relevant for order-related billing by means of a billing plan. You can also specify a billing plan type for each item category.
Thanks

Hi all,
I have a scenario of project sales. The billing will be order based - 50% after order confirmation, 40% after delivery & 10% after installation & testing.
I am using milestone billing plan for my project sales. I am not using the project system. I have created the billing plan in the following way:
1. Define billing plan types. I have copied from standard billing plan 01 & saved as Z type.
2. Define date descriptions. I have created 3 different date descriptions - a) Order confirmed, b) Delivery done, c) Installation & testing done.
3. Define & assign date categories. I created 3 different entries. First for the down payment at the time of order confirmation........i used the date description as down payment. The billing rule selected was "Down payment in milestone billing on percentage basis". The fixed date selected was "Fixed date, date not copied from milestone". The billing block selected was "calculation missing". The billing type selected was "FAZ".
For the second part (40% after delivery) I used the date description as delivery done. The billing rule selected was "Milestone billing on a percentage basis". The fixed date selected was "Fixed date, date not copied from milestone". The billing block selected was "calculation missing". The billing type selected was "FV".
For the third part (10% after installation) I used the date description as installation done. The billing rule selected was "Closing invoice in milestone billing". The fixed date selected was "Fixed date, date not copied from milestone". The billing block selected was "calculation missing". The billing type selected was "FV".
4. Maintain date proposals. I maintain 3 different dates with an interval of 5 days. For first step i selected the date description as "order confirmation"......billing % as 50%........selected the block......billing relevance as down payment on % basis.........payment term..........billing type as FAZ.
For second step i sselected the date description as "delivery done".......billing % as 40%........selected the block........billing relevance as "Milestone billing on a percentage basis".......payment term........billing type as FV.
For third step i selected the date description as "installation done"......billing % as 10%.......selected the block..........billing relevance as "Closing invoice in milestone billing".......payment term......billing type as FV.
5. Assign billing plan types to sales document types....I assigned the billing plan to the sales doucment for project sales.
6. Assign billing plan types to item categories.....I assigned the billing plan to the item category of the project item....with billing relevance as "I-Order-relevant billing - billing plan".....billing plan as the milestone billing plan.
Copy controls: I maintained the copy control settings in VTFA.......sales order to billing document type FAZ & FV as well. In the transaction code VOV8 for the sales order document type I maintained the order related billing type as FV.
Now I created a project sales order.......the system displayed the billing plan tab......the milestones were shown but the data regarding the billing percentage.......payment terms.........billing relevance.....was not shown. I entered all the details......with the document types as
FAZ
FV
FV.
I removed the block from the first milestone......down payment.
Now i created an invoice in VF01......selected the order number for reference......the system created 2 invoices.......1 for the down payment request & the other contract invoice. The down payment request had the correct amount but the contract invoice did not display any value.......
How should i correct the settings so the system will only create the relevant invoice......
With best regards,
Niyaz.Hi,
You have done a good job.
Enter different dates in sales order for each Milestone and assign billing block save the sales order.
Goto change sales order, remove the block for one billing date.
In billing screen, enter sales order no. don't press enter
Click on Selection date (Shift+F7) enter the date range and press enter. you will get only first billing that is 50%.
Actually we are using PS, milestones and billing dates will be copied from there.

Can it be possible to create invoice without billing plan date?
Hi Gurus,
I have made settings for billing plan in contracts. But, client wants billing plan at contract level only for the sake of reporting. Client doesnt want invoice to be created according to these billing plan.
Now, consider this scenario,
I have created contract A with billing plan values in it.
I have created sales order B with reference to contract A. There are no billing plan values in sales order B.
There is no delivery and PGI.
Now, when I try to create invoice with reference to sales order B, system doesnt allow me to save the same and says "No billing plan date found".
Will it be possible to create invoice irrespective of the billing plan in contract?
Please guide.Hi,
Then in that case i would advise not to use billing plan for your contract document type.
If you intend to create a sales order in reference to your contract document which has billing plan type attached, then in that case you need to maintain billing plan for your sales order document too.
Reward if helpful.

Hi all,
how to create referance Billing plan in milestone billing ????? as i want to reflect % of down payment automatic for each transaction on vao1????Hi,
Coming to your first question,we are using the reference billing plan that is already there.The reference billing plan here is picked from sales order whaich has billing plan.
Create a sales order which is using a billing plan.Goto item details,in this go to billing plan tab.
Select that reference number.note it down.We are maintaining that number here in reference billing plan.
Coming to your second question,
You have to maintain that dates in customizing by using the T.Code OVBM or by the path specified below:
SPRO>Sales and Distribution>Billing>Billing Plan>Maintain date proposals for billing plan types.
Select your billing plan type.Goto details or click on the blue lens.
If you want to give you can the reference billing Plan no. and click on Maintaindates.
If you give that number then those dates will be appeared here and if you want you can change or add some more dates also.
Here you will find the % bill value,billing type,Billing block etc....
If you select any item then you can check the date details also by clicking on date details.
Save.
Make sure that this billing plan type is assigned to your Sales order type by VOV8 T.Code in billing tab.Or by using the T.Code "OVBP" also you can assign.Or you can assign it your item category also by using "OVBR" T.Code.
