Can the project status be influenced by billing plan in sales order?

I am facing the following problem: 
I linked the WBS Element to a sales order billing plan (in header: account assignment).
Now, is there a possibility to prevent changing the status of the project to “close technically”, while there are still some invoices of the billing in the sales order not billed?
I want to make sure that a project can only be closed once all the invoices related to the project were billed.
Thanks in advance

Hello Maike,
I have different view here:
System status is set to FNBL automatically when all the items in the sales orders are billed. So user does not really need to set it.
TECO is a status which should follow FNBL generally speaking. And it has to be put manually.
Now, if the requirement is to throw an error when FNBL or TECO is put manually if not all the sales orders items are billed- it can be done by using validation.
A validation can be activated which will check for any open billing item for that WBS when status is set to TECO. If there is any, it will throw an error while saving WBS with TECO.So it will not allow to set TECO. T code for validation is OPSI.
Thanks,
Sourabh

  • To add Billing Plan at Sales Order Header Level

    Dear All,
    Our requirement is such that for a project, we need to define a billing plan at header level of sales order.
    As of now we are defining billing plan at sales order line item which are having accunt assignment to WBS elements.
    Pl. let me know whether we can add billing plan at SO header level and if it is possible then how to do it. Because right now there is no tab available for "Billing Plan" at SO header level.
    If we can add it then will it be valid for all item levels?
    Need your help.
    Regards
    Ratna Palit

    SPRO - SD - Billing - Billing Plan - the first 5 config nodes (Define Billing Plan types / Define Date descriptions / Assign Date categories / Maintain Date Proposals / Assign Billing Plan types to Sales Doc types) are applicable to you.
    this is pretty tranparent for a reference.
    What else is required?

  • Transaction to maintina Billing Plan for Sales order item

    Hi All,
    Is there any transaction other than VA01/VA02 to maintian Billing plan for Sales order item.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Rajanidhi Rajasekeran.

    It is possible to maintain Billing Plan in Sales Document Type (VOV8), as well as Item Category level (VOV7). As you want it at Item level, maintain the same in Item Category Configuration at Item level & it will by default be captured in Sales Order at Item level.
    Step 1: Sales Document Type
    IMG > Sales and Distribution > Sales > Sales Documents >
    Sales Document Header:
    1. Sales Document Type:The sales document types represent the different business transactions, such as Inquiry, Quotation, Sales Order, etc. To create new sales order type, always copy as with reference to similar sales order. If possible use standard sales order.
    2. Define Number Ranges For Sales Documents: Maintain number range with discussion with core team.
    3. Assign Sales Area To Sales Document Types:
    A. Combine sales organizations / Combine distribution channels / Combine divisions: Ensure to maintain these, else Sales Order creation will give error.
    B. Assign sales order types permitted for sales areas: Assign only required Sales Order Types to required Sales Area. This will minimize selection of Sales Order Type as per sales area.
    Sales Document Item:
    1. Define Item Categories: If possible use Standard Item Category. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
    2. Assign Item Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving item category: Sales Document Type + Item Category Group + Usage + Higher Level Item Category = Item Category

    You have to enable the PERIODIC BILLING as the billing plan for your case.
    You can refer to the OSS note 831158 which gives lot of other OSS notes for you to configure the scenario.

  • Bill Plan with Sales Order item rejected

    Milestone Billing Plan created.
    IMG Config Sales Order Item Reason for Rejection = BIC checked (Not Relevant for Billing)
    Add material on the (Billing Plan) Sales Order Item.
    Set the Item Reason For rejection (same reason as set in IMG config for BIC above)
    Create some Billing Plan dates (at the sales order header).
    [F3] back. You get an info message "Value-based differences in the billing plan cannot be allocated"
    Save the Order.. All is fine.
    If I do not set a reason for rejection on the item all is fine.
    Can anyone explain this ?

    Hi Friends
    I have resolved the problem myself. I have used sap note : 97272 and downloaded the utility/ correction program ZZUNREJE and ran it for rejected sales line item.
    The reason for rejection was successfully reversed without touching any of the associated POs.

  • BAPI or Function to update Billing Plan in Sales Order Items

    Hello all !
         I have to update some fields in the billing plan data in sales order's item (VA02) with a program (receiving it's data form csv files).
         I've searched a BAPI but infortunately there are no "Billing Plan" data structure to update thoses fields.
         The transaction in VA02, the billing plan data is found in FPLT table, linked to VBKD table with key field VBKD-FPLNR.
         I've tried theses Functions with no result :
    BILLING_SCHEDULE_MAINTAIN
    BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE
    BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGEBOS
    BAPI_SALESDOCUMENT_CHANGE
    For now I'm searching how VA02 is saving the billing plan data, but it's very tricky and maybe not reusable.
         If someone have an idea for updating billing plan data in a abap program ( and not a batch input of VA02 because the line to update can have a variable position ).
    Thanks a lot.
    Message was edited by: Thomas B.

    Thanks Kiran I for your answer.
        This function might be helpful but there is a strange control at the begining of the code.
    (I guess VBAK must be filled somewhere..)
      IF I_VBELN NE VBAK-VBELN.
        MESSAGE A044 WITH I_VBELN VBAK-VBELN.
      ENDIF.
    But I've found another way to update the billing plan dates: using the function BILLING_SCHEDULE_SAVE (with BILLING_SCHEDULE_READ before). My point is solved.

  • After giving billing block in sales order still able to bill the document.

    Hi gurus,
    I created one milestone billing and assigned to item category and sales document type.
    in billing plan i had given billing block and also 2 proposed dates.
    now when i am creating sales document system is coping all the information from billing plan.
    it has billing block also
    but when i am creating billing document with referance to sales order its not blocking.
    in copy control i made the same setting as we had in credit memo request to credit memo.
    on credit memo request it is working properly but in my order its not working
    so can any body will help where i was getting wrong.
    regards
    Raj.

    Hi,
    I think system will not allow you to do billing.
    Can you check billing block field in sales order Header / Item. Billing plan tab for your billing dates.
    If billing block is there to billing dates, then you can't do billing.
    Otherwise, do not  maintain default billing dates in billing plan type OVBM. Try to maintain billing dates in sales order manually.
    In sales order creation, go to billing plan tab enter billing date and %, system automatically defaults the billing block and billing type and billing amounts.
    I hope you are using milestone billing percentage base.

    Hi Yang,
    Workflow is the best approach for any issue related to business objects.
    Since you want call FM BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE, it will change SO. It means everytime any SO is changed there will an event being triggered.
    object type: BUS2032
    event: Changed
    simple solution:
    1. Please create object type (SWO1) and its super type should be BUS2032.
    2. Add your own method and attach your custom FM which actually updates the qty & PR)
    3. Create Task (PFTC_INS)
    in basic data:
    - provide object type which you have created
    - provide method which you have added
    goto triggering events tab
    - Choose Object Category as BOR object type
    - provide object type (better give BUS2032)
    - provide event as CHANGED
    Please have look into very nice video blog which helps you to create your workflow.

  • How can we revise the pricing both at header and item level of sales order?

    Dear All,
      Now there's one issue of the pricing to me. i want to revise the pricing both at header and item level of sales order. but after i finished the cutomize and tested it, it's more different as i thought. i found that the pricing can revise at the one side only,for example, if i revise the pricing at item level and it's grey and can't be revised at the header. on the other hand, it's the same result what's happened at item.
      So, in my opinion, we can't revise the pricing both at header and item, right? if not, please give me more advices and teach me how to solve the problem. thanks a lot.

    Dear Lakshmipathi,
      Thanks a lot for your kindly and useful answer for me and I learn more for the pricing technology.
      I didn't notice the way that you reminded ago therefore I also saw the button at the condition tab. And your suggestion makes me know more.
      And I had tested the way that you said, I met with a question. Below is my opinion for my testing.
      I had created one SO and the pricing was $10, then I revised the pricing from 10 to 15 by VK11. It can't be updated automatically at SO and I must update it manually by clicking the "Update" button. This is OK for my testing, but I have another question to disturb you for the use of "Active" button. When I click the button and nothing is responsed, it's quite different what you said. So, please give more detail for the Active button. Thanks a lot.
