Enter IG (internal credit memo) as the billing type for intercompany
billing for order type RE.
Cust-Sales/distrib-Transactions-Billing-Intercompany billing-Order types
Intercompany billing always refers to a delivery
Processing flow will be:
1. Create returns request invoice receipt (with or w/out reference)
2. Create returns delivery and goods receipt
3. Create credit memo invoice receipt for customer for 1.
4. Create internal credit memo for 2.
Therefore you must make the following entries in the document flow
for billing documents:
Target BillType        DlvType              ItemCat
a)    IG                  LR
b)    IG                  LR                    REN
Parameters for entries:
For a) Copying requirement: 14 Dlv.-rel.header IV
      Copy item no.: x (Check and decide yourself)
For b)Copying requirement: 15 Dlv.rel. item IV
      Data VBRK/VBRP      : 1 Inv.split (sample)
      Billing quantity    : B
      Qty/itm val.pos/neg : +
      Pricing type        : G

Distribution Channel Vs Sales Document Type

Dear All,
I have a confusion over my configuration process. My customer has the following types of customers:
1) Distributors, 2)C&F, 3)Institutional Sales, 4)Modern Sales, 5)Employee Sales, 6)Scrap Sales, 7)Sale of raw materials and 8)Exports.
Now I have an option of either creating 8 distribution channels and maintain one Sales document type or I can define one Distribution channel and define 8 sales document types.
My requirement can be achieved by both means but I wish to know which would be a better approach. Whether creating multiple Distribution channels or creating multiple sales document types. Can you please suggest me a better method among the two with advantages and disadvantages if possible?
As far as pricing condition records are concerned, I anyways have to maintain in the key combination either sales document type or distribution channel. So i am a little confused over which is a better approach

In normal cases, we would be having different sales areas for the following
1) Domestic
2) Exports
3) STO
4) Institutional
In fact, some clients would like to have Domestic OE and Domestic Retail since predominently, they cater to these segments and would like to have reports based on these. In my earlier project, they had gone for even Exports OE and Exports Retail due to the fact that their major sales is exports.
In your case, first decide whether to go for a seperate sales area or sale order type depending upon the volume of business the client would do. If the sale is going to happen only occasionally in any of the above, then have one sales area called miscellaneous sales.
As for as possible, have the document types to the minimal for better performance.

@ Mr.Phani Kumar :
Please find the link for your reference, If we are creating the invoices i’e either customer invoice or intercompany invoice through VF01 system will not stop. But If we want to generate through billing due list VF04 then customer invoice generation is mandatory.

SD: Change distribution channel in sales order.

Hello,
I have a situation where my end users has mistakenly entered a foreign distribution channel for a domestic sales order. The order have been saved and the goods issue posted. Is there a way to change the distribution channel at this stage?
Thank you in advance,
Anisah

No, it is not possible to change it now. Best option will be to cancel the delivery and sales order if this order is big one because if you have sales/management reporting based on distribution channel then it will be shown uder foreign channel rather than domestic.
If order is small and goods have already left the factory then you can leave this as it is and may be you don't want go through all the pains.

Partner profit center/Profit center billing (VBAP-PCTRF) missing in sales order during intercompany sales process.

Hello All,
I am facing a issue where in the partner profit center/profit center billing (VBAP-PCTRF) filed at item level in sales order is not getting filled during inter-company sales process.
I have maintained profit center in material master for both selling and supplying company code.
In addition to this when I generate a invoice "F2" system posts to the delivering company code's profit center.
Note: profit center 9999 assigned to both company codes.
Selling company code's material master screen shot:
Supplying company code's material master screen shot:
As per my analysis:
1. The profit center field (VBAP-PRCTR) is filled in with the data maintained in material master for delivering/supplying company code and when inter-company invoice IV is created, system is posting to this profit center, which is correct as per my understanding.
2. If I maintain some substitution rule using 0KEM, and if the requirements are fulfilled system fills in the partner profit center (VBAP-PCTRF).
3. If i create a order (non-inter company) in delivering company code then correct profit center (VBAP-PRCTR) is flowing from material master.
Please help me in understanding why the data in partner profit center (VBAP-PCTRF) is not flowing in during inter-company sales.
Thanks & Regards
Naveen K.

Moving Average Price---Intercompany sales process

Hi,
I have a special requirement in Intercompany process..
I want the Ordering company to be charged with Moving Average Price of the Material instead of the Normal Price.
Can some on help me out with this?
Thanks,
Challa.

Hi,
In general i hope, system will not copy the moving average price from the material master through VPRS Condition. In case its not copied then you need to write the logic in alternative condition coloum to copy the moving averate price.
Please confirm whether VPRS is working for moving average price, if not then develop the logic as below -
based on Material and plant, go to table MBEW with selection as MATNR and WERKS bring the value from the field VERPR where VPRSV=V.
Plese confirm for my knowledge also

Intercompany Sales Processing- Moving Average Price

Hi,
I have a special requirement in Intercompany process..
I want the Ordering company to be charged with Moving Average Price of the Material instead of the Normal Price.
Can some on help me out with this?
Thanks,
Challa.

Hello,
You can control it using formulas via VOFM ,for the conditions IV01, PI01 (statistical) but I would suggest a more standard solution using VPRS condition.
Condition Type VPRS in the intercompany-billing document indicates cost to the supplying company code and it's used to retrieve the cost of the material accessing the valuation segment of the material master for getting the standard cost or the moving average cost. Condition category G accesses the standard cost and condition category T always accesses the moving average price.
The use of two different condition types in Intercompany billing is necessary to ensure that data is transmitted correctly to the financial statement (Component CO-PA).
Having VPRS condition correctly determined You can use a formula to make Your PI01 condition equal to the VPRS.
Tell me if it helped you !
Thanks,

Intercompany sales and sales process exc Duty for Netherlands and Belgium

Can anyone explain me the sales and intercompany sales process where materials are excise Duty relevant for Netherlands and Belgium ? That means sales is done via the Netherlands for Netherlands and Belgium ? How are the different tax rates configured for the different countries ?

HI Garima ,
Plz check the following steps
CONFIGURATION SETTINGS
Assign Delivery Plant of the supplying company code to Sales Org + Distribution channel of the Ordering company code in the Enterprise Structure.
DEFINE ORDER TYPES FOR INTERCOMPNY BILLING:
Menu path: IMG/ SD/Billing/Intercompany Billing/Define Order Types for Intercompany billing
Assign Organizational units by Plant:
Menu Path: IMG/ SD/Billing/Intercompany Billing/Assign Organizational units by Plant.
Define Internal Customer Number By Sales Organization:
Menu Path: IMG/ SD / Billing/ Intercompany Billing/ Define Internal Customer Number By Sales Organization:
Creating / Showing Ordering Sales Organization as Internal Customer for Supplying Company code:
Transaction Code: XD01
The ordering sales organization is represented as Internal customer of Supplying company code.
We need to create customer master in Account Group - Sold to Party and maintain minimum required financial & Sales Area data.
This internal customer number has to be assigned to the ordering sales organization. Hence, the system automatically picks up this Internal customer number whenever there is Intercompany billing.
In the above mention configuration steps you are missing the second step in your confirguration 1.e the reason your getting that error
Best regards

Distribution channel-wise customer sales and outstanding report.

Hi
In our scenario, one customer is direct factory sales as well consignment sales customer also. We created two distribution channel. But customer master record is one.
Now my client requires customer report:
Total sales value and quantity - distribution channel wise
Outstanding customer balance - distribution channel wise
Please let me know if this report is possible.
I tried with some reports: S_ALR_87012171 and S_ALR_87012186. But its showing total sales.
I tried with VF05N. It shows billed amount and does not quantity.
Please help.

Distribution Channel-Wise Sales can be made avaialble thru Standard Reports or LIS / SIS.
But, I believe you cannot get the Distribution Channel-wise Outstanding Report from SAP Standard. You will have to go for Z-Report Development.
Speak to your ABAPer & get a new Report developed.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,
Jignesh.

Is this process is valid if the dispatch plant is located in the different country?
Are there any international problems by using this process?
