Detailed operation for billing plan

Hello Gurus,
        I have created billing plan, but I don't know where to use these billing plan. please show me the scenario where I can use biling plan and show me the detailed operation?
thanks very much!

HI zhang
If you assign billing plan to sales doc type at header level a billing tab will come and If you assign a billing plan to item category a billing tab will come at item level
Periodic billing plan
These billing plans are using for agreements.The best example is scheduling agreements where you can use the  periodic billing plan
Milestone Billing plan
These are used to set to the customers. The best example for this is when we configure downpayments  in SAP. In down payments customer pays the amount in advance either 50%or 100% then we will deliver.(depends on the business requirement).
In Down payments , the material has to be assigned item category group005  and when you create sales order item category will be TAO which will have billing plan assigned
Now you can created dates and fix amounts as per the billing plan. and you can assign a billing block also. if you want

  • Which Trans. table contain Indicator for billing plan in header

    Hi All,
    I wnat to find out how SAP table storage the following field:
    In Sales Document Item with billing plan, the reference to the header billing plan 'check box' in the 'Billing plan' screen.
    -> Indicator for billing plan in header (RV60F-KFREL)
    Any, Idea?
    Thanks,
    Neil

    Sorry Neil,
    that was nonsense: I confused billing plan with installment plan: In telecom, media, utilities and other businesses with many (small) customers, you can use module contract accounting (in connection with SAP business partner). If people can't pay their bill, the company can agree on paying by installments. For this, contract accounting module uses the installment plan. This will split up the debt into slices due i.e. every month. Table fkk_instpln_head is used for this.

  • Config to Turn Off Indicator for Billing Plan in Header

    Hi,
    anyone knows whether there is a config that is able to turn off (or default as blank) for the indicator for "billing plan in header" that is found in the item's billing plan? This is the indicator that cause the item billing plan dates to copy from header's billing plan.
    I am trying to write a program that create sales order with billing plan using BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2. As this BAPI does not allow me to change the item billing plan dates, I am looking at using the stardard program SDFPLA02 after the BAPI is called. However, for the program to work, I need this "Billing Plan in Header" un-tick,
    Or, is  BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 able to un-tick this indicator?

  • Management of Trial Period for Billing Plan !!

    Hello SAP folks,
    I have a real time business requirement where we essentially have Rental Contract which are being created from Sales Order and there is a billing plan defined for this Rental Contract. With new introduction of some Marketting strategy of Marketting group of my Client they have come with introduction of trial period for 30,60 and 90 days for the Contract !!
    Now When we talk about the Trial period for 30 days, there are two important triggering point which are mapped from Sales Order to Contract i.e. No of Payment and Term of Contract. For 30days of Trial period, the number of payment is 11 if the term of contract is 12 month, 60 days the number of payment is 10 and term of contract is same as 12 month.
    Now my question is how can i map this sort requirement in SAP with respect to Billing Plan i.e How to set the system such the billing should be happening based on No of payment ???
    Any pointers on this requirement shall be really appreciated !!!

  • Allow partial quantity billing for billing plans - VOFM - SAP Note 726039

    Hi Gurus,
    I got one task, telling that copy that routine 23 into customized ex: 902 in VOFM. Then change the copying requirement for the corresponding item category in the copying control (Transaction VTFA).
    reruirement is that the customer is paying cash in advance. Goods are partially delivered.
    ex:
    Order 10001206 creates a downpayment request for 10EA.  A delivery is created for 2EA.
    First clearing invoice 70700001 is created with billing quantity A in the copy control: A Order quantity less invoiced quantity. Hence the whole order quantity is considered for billing.
    For the second clearing invoice 70700003 (the first was cancelled) billing quantity B is used in the coy control: B Delivery quantity less invoiced quantity. Hence 2EA are considered as billing quantity. For an item that has zero delivery quantity an invoice with zero billing quantity will be created ( the behavior we see).
    Billing type        : ZBAC
    SalesDoc Type : ZSC
    Item Category  : zsak, zszs, zsao etc.
    They are telling the Solution like this.
    the quantity to be billed is calculated from delivery quantity minus the already billed quantity during the billing of a billing plan date
    Pls help me, I never used VOFM for enchancement.
    As an abaper what we have to do for this task,
    Thanks in advance.

  • Detail Designer for Job in Succession Planning!

    Hi Luke,
    I want to do some changes (like hiding button, removing or adding a tab) for 'Job' & 'Job Family' in details panel for Succession Planning. But I'm not able to see these objects in admin console of succession planning.
    Do I need to make those changes through backend? If yes, please tell me the folder, where I can access relevant files & make the changes.
    Thanks in advance!
    Prashant

    Hi Prashant,
    The Job Family details panel can be edited in the AdminConsole. Go to the Positions module, select Job Families with Successors and then click Details Designer. After you changes make sure you go to the Profile section (the one after Details Designer) and click Copy From Details Designer so that your changes are also made in the Profile.
    For the Job details panel you need to make changes at file level. The details panel presentation file controls the layout of the details panel. These are located in AppResources\detailspresentationconfiguration:
    Job: SAPJobDetailsPresentation.xml
    Job (Profile): SAPJobDetailsPresentationMoreDetails.xml
    You may need to refer back to the details configuration to find the button section names. These are:
    Job: SAPJobDetailsConfiguration.xml
    Job (Profile): SAPJobMoreDetailsDetailsConfiguration.xml
    Best regards,

  • Billing planes

    Friends,
    How Billing planes (Milestone) can be used in the down payment processing?
    Here we are collecting 30% payment during sales order creation & 70% during shipment.
    Thanks

    Hi Friend,
    Mile stone billing is part of PROJECT SYSTEMS MODULE integrated with SD.
    Milestone billing is practiced by Infrastructure companies and Power Ind,and construction industry(projects).
    Billing Plan for Milestone Billing
    Milestone 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
    Reward points if helpful.

  • Billing plan and billing status

    Hello Friends,
    I would like to clarify if my understanding is correct before I configure a billing plan:
    1. Billing status is not seen in billing doc but in preceding doc like a DO.
    2. For a Billing Plan, there can be 1 billing plan at item level for a set of settlement dates.
    If the plan is defined at header level, only 1 billing plan is for all items.
    3. Contract is a sales doc type  and contract data is only at header level.
    Is this considered an Order-related billing when invoice is printed at each billing date?
    Is the contract considered as the reference doc for the billing doc sent to customer? I believe so. please confirm.
    4. There is no such thing as master billing plan that item level billing plans need to be linked to.
    5. date category : this is at billing date level and cannot be changed?
    regards
    Pascal
