Custom Automatic Release for Billing Documents

Dear SAP Experts,
I have a requirement to make an automatic release after billing document has been created under our custom condition. I could not remove POSTING BLOCK option in VOFA since only some conditions could make these billing documents will automatically released.
Through the following thread (http://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2018810) says that it is posible to create the billing document and change manually the option to "automatic released" in the header but I still could not find how to do that.
Could you please advice me, is there any user exit that is possible to put our condition and make auto release of billing document? or at least how to create billing document manually via VF01 and change the option not to block payment?
Thanks.
Regards,
Charlie

Hi JP,
As I mention before, only in certain condtion the billing doc will automatically released so it is not always automatically released, that is why I could not turn-off POSTING BLOCK indicator in VOFA.
I finally found exit (USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMK) that I could use to change the billing doc indicator for automatically released although it is not satisfied me 100% since this exit has been run twice (before and after save) and one of my auto release is to compare the net value in the header (before save, net value in header is still 0).
Thanks all.
Regards, Charlie

Restriction for release of billing document to accounting

Hi All,
Need you inputs for meeting the below requirement.
There is a requirement to control the release of billing document of a certain billing type to accounting based on certain users.
The posting block has already been ticked at the definition of the billing type so that the release to accounting does not happen automatically. The release to accounting then will be done manually by users through tcode VF02. Here the requirement is that only certain users need to have the authorization to release the billing document to accounting through VF02 i.e not all users who have access to VF02 will be able to do this activity of releasing to accounting. These users can however release billing documents of other types to accounting.
Is there any user exit wherein we can place an authorisation object for checking the user role?
Note: When relase of billing documents is done via VF02 the tcode VFX3 get called in background.
Regards,
Rajkumar

Hi,
Try these ywo approaches- restrict the authorisation to VFX3 using basis roles. And try to fiddle with this field in vbrk using userexits- RFBSK. Try this exit
USEREXIT_FILL_VBRK_VBRP (Module pool SAPLV60A, program RV60AFZC)

In standard, you cannot generate automatic billing but you can set date and time so that you can generate invoices at the specified time in bulk. The TCode to achieve this is VF06.

Output to be blocked for Billing documents, if not released to Accounting

Hi SAP Gurus,
We have a requirement, where the Billing documents should not be issued output, if they are not released to accounting.
The system should not allow the user to issue output for billing documents, if not released to accounting.
Regards,
sree.

Standard routine 62 should be able to suffice your requirement.
Provided output determination in billing doc should happen from output condition record (VV31).
If you manaully assign assign output type in billing doc, then system will overlook the requirement.
In addition to that if your output type is assigned with requiremrnt routine 62 in your output procedure.
Then till your release tke billing doc to accounting, you will not be able see output type determine in billing doc.
If you have doubt, whether the output type is getting determined properly or not.
Then output(header/item) screen in your billing doc(VF02), in menubar select Goto - then choose Determin. Analysis.
It will show message that due requirement 62, output determination didn't too place.
Regards
JP

And Excise Invoice gets generated automatically without J1IIN, to which I can view in the display mode in J1IIN.

Hi,
Create Excise Invoice Automatically
Instructs the system to automatically create an outgong excise invoice immediately you create a commercial invoice or a pro forma invoice.
The system creates the excise invoice in the background.
Dependencies
If you want to make use of this function, you must also define the default plant, excise group, and series groups in Customizing for Excise Duty, by choosing Business Transactions -> Outgoing Excise Invoices -> Maintain Default Excise Groups and Series Groups
SPRO>Logistics General>Tax on Goods Movement>India>Basic Settings-->Maintain Excise Groups.
Under the Outgoing Excise invoice tab there is a check box (Excise invoice during billing)

Error while releasing the billing document to accounting

Dear All,
I need your favor to resolve the below issue:
(System SAP SAP ECC 6.0)
User is getting the below error message while releasing the billing document to accounting in VF02:
This is an inter-company billing document (B. type : IV) created in company code 0151. Payer is "IC0186", verified the customer has been setup in 151.
Corresponding invoice has been successfully posted in company code 0186. (Partner : P0151)
User is able to post the inter-company document in 0151 using other inter- company partner (ex. IC0183). Therefore, seems that Document type can't be an issue here.
"Consolidated companies 151 and 186 are different
Message no. F5080
Diagnosis
The number of the affiliated company must be clear for the selected document type for all the line items. In this case at least two different companies or a company in connection with a business partner who does not belong to a company are stated.
Procedure
If you selected the correct accounts, you must enter the document with a document type that allows cross-company posting. Otherwise, please correct the entered account."
Could anyone please suggest what can be the reason, if any configuration is missing. Any help is this regard will be highly appreciated
Thanks in advance,
Praveen

Hi Murali,
Thanks for the prompt input, however as mentioned document type can't be an issue. Since user is able to post the document (same document type) using other inter-company partner in 0151.
Thanks,

While releasing the billing document system was showing the message like NO STANDARD COST ESTIMATE COULDBE FOUND FORTHE MATERIAL.
I have suggested to the user to release the price through ck24.At that time system is showing the message like cost has not been created for the inhouse production.
The samething was tested in Qualiy server and the transaction was through.I have not done any price release for the samematerial.I have checked the table under VBAP the documents was made against to the samematerial.That time we have not faced any issues like this.
Note:Material ledger concept using by client.
Please kindly advice how to proceed further.
Regards,
Suma

have you checked in ck13n if there is a standard cost estimate for the material and what status it has, if there is one? Also, what are the dates in that cost estimate? How do they compare to the date of the billing document? What does the customizing say about the selection of cost estimates for valuation of SD documents?

So pl. check the SAP Note 849438 . As per the note :-
The solution is delivered in the indicated support packages. In case you can not implement the correspondin support package for your release immediately, please follow the procedure described below:
1. In the Data Dictionary Editor (transaction SE11) please open the definition of domain J_1AOFFNREL, go to the fixed values and add value 'P' with description 'Number Assingment using Prenumbered Forms' in a position so that the possible values remain sorted alphabetically.
2. In the Message Editor (transaction SE91) please go to message class ICC_CN and add the new message 837 with text '&1: Official doc. numbering is not available for delivery documents!'.
3. If you are implementing the note in release 4.6C, please create the following function modules:

After the installation of the corresponding support package the customizing node for Venezuela can be used.
1. Enable the use of business place for country Venezuela as described in the OSS Note 726537.
2. Define the necessary document classes and configure the document types you would like to get an official document number as relevant for official document numbering in the desired mode. Please check the OSS Note 571376 for some explanations about the meaning of the different settings.
3. Define the necessary number ranges and intervals and assign them to the combination of company code, business place, document class and validity period. If you use the customizing activity for Taiwan, then please leave the prefix field empty.

Tax code error while releasing a billing document to accounting in VF02

Hi SAP Gurus,
While trying to release a billing document to accounting, the following error is displayed
" Tax Statement Item Missing for Tax Code TA".
Message number: FF805.
Please provide your valuable inputs to overcome this issue.
Suitable points shall be rewarded.
Thanks and Regards,
Sreeni.

Check your pricing procedure. One of the Tax relevant items is ending up with a base value of Zero.
This is easy to check if you double-click on tax related Pricing Conditions, you will find one of them with a base value is zero.
If not, it could be something more simpler, like GL Account master data. Make sure the "Post without tax allowed" box is checked and ensure the tax category is masked ("*").
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

Number Range (series) for Billing Document (F2) and Excise Invoice

Hi All,
I want to know how the number ranges / number series is defined for billing documents (F2) and excise invoice, for India business scenario.
In India, the excise invoice is given to the customer so that he can the excise duty/ cenvat. This invoice acts as the Tax invoice (having all pricing elements apart from excise duty) against which customer outstanding is considered. That is, the payment due will be tracked against this Tax (excise) invoice.
But in SAP, the accounts posting is done (customer a/c debited) when we creaate and post the billing document (type F2). Hence, the outstanding amount is tracked against the billing document created. This billing doc/invoice will have all the pricing components like price, discount, freight, etc apart from excise duty.
The excise invoice is created separately....with ref to the above billing doc....for posting the excise duty.
If the number ranges for billing document and excise invoice are different then it is difficult to trace the outstanding amount from a particular customer on the basis of excise invoice created in the system.
Can somebody provide inputs/solution on this?
Thanks indvance.
Rgds,
Amit

Hi Saurabh,
My question is not how to define number range for billing doc and excise invoice? i mean what procedure / tcode to be used for the same?
My question is whether we need to define same number range for Billing doc (F2) as well as Excise Invoice.
For example: number range 1000 to 1999 --- same for F2 and excise invoice....
Lets say billing doc 1000 is created. Further, when we create excise invoice w.r.t. this billing doc....the excise invoice created will also need to be 1000. ....so that we can identify that against this excise invoice, we need to collect the payment from customer.
If the number ranges for billing doc and excise invoice are different, then it is difficult for the user to trace the outstanding payment .....because genarally the excise is treated as Tax invoice by companies in India ...(so that the customer can claim the excise duty....when he purchases the goods from the company).
Whereas the customer account is hit when the billing doc is posted .....hence i feel, we need to keep the same number range for billing doc and exice invoice.
Hope the question/scenario is clear now.
I would appreciate the inputs on the above, from the consultants/experts who have worked on SAP implementation projects in India.
Rgds,
Amit

Error During Releasing of Billing Document to Accounts Department

Hi,
Kindly help me, we have just finished the upgradation from 4.6 version to 6 version. when we are releasing the billing document to accounts department error message is coming like this.
No entry has been made in the assignment table for condition type P001.
I verified this one through KE41 transaction, as already maintained the combination of condition type and value field both options (tick and untick of transfer +/-).
Billing type is ZIV.we are getting this error message only for this billing type.
kindly suggest me any SPA notes required to be implemented in order to release the same.
Regards,
Vasu S

hi,
once your order is created and also delivery, there is no problem in the data of the material.
the only possibility is that you must have skipped the post goods issue step or if PGI is mandatory for delivery creation then there must not be appropriate stock for that item.
you can check the stock of that particular material in the specific plant by t.code MMBE.
regards,
Siddharth.
