Duplicate Outputs proposed in Billing Document unexpectedly after 3 months

We are facing a weird problem in some of our billing documents. After the billing document has been saved and the EDI output ZEDI issued, some days later (or even some months later), 2 or 3 duplicate outputs have been proposed (automatically ?) and the IDOCs also have gone out of the system. But the status of the duplicate outputs remain in "Yellow" status and their Processing Log does not contain the new IDOC #s but the original IDOC # that was sent first.
We are at a loss to determine root of issue, Users don't remember changing the billing documents at these times but even if they did, the "Multiple Issuing" checkbox is not selected in the Output Type "ZEDI" and hence, outputs should not have been proposed.
Has anyone faced such an issue before ?
I have tried to paste some logs below:
Output Screen:
              Output     Description Medium     PF     Part#     Language     Proc Date          Proc Time     Date/Tim
duplicate ZEDI     EDI Invoice     EDI     BP     266     EN                    00:00:00     4
duplicate ZEDI     EDI Invoice     EDI     BP     266     EN                    00:00:00     4
duplicate ZEDI     EDI Invoice     EDI     BP     266     EN                    00:00:00     4

When I do a "Determination Analysis" in Output Screen for this faulty billing doc, I get the following..
Z1EX     502     Output ignored (requirement 962 not fulfilled)
Z1PA     502     Output ignored (requirement 962 not fulfilled)

Regenerating output for archived billing document

Hi,
As TCODE=VF31 can not generate output from archived billing documents, I would kindly ask you if is there any other alternative standard SAP way to do it ?
Thanking in advance for your help, best regards
Joseph Sangoi

You cannot print from archived documents as archived documents have to remain unchanged. Printing will create new NAST records for your document which is not possible for archived data.
You have to care about such requests prior to data archiving. You need a general strategy e.g. printing into an archive (setting in your message conditions), which is optical archiving and often mixed with data archiving . Those optically archived invoices can be reprinted at any time.

Assign output forms to billing documents

Hi gurus
Can anyone tell me the transaction code/menu path for assigning output forms to billing documents and order confirmations in SD.
What are the standard output forms?

Hi luckson
You can create your own smartforms and assign to the output type.
t.code to create smartforms is smartfroms
Go to spro -> sales and distribution -> basic functions -> output determination -> output determination for sales documents
Go there and select the output type BA00 and on the left side you can see processing and routines select that there you can see the feild smartforms . there you can assign your created smartforms or if standard are there . that also you can assign
use t.code V/30
In the same way you can assign for billing output type

New output type for billing documents

Hello All,
We have created a new output type (ZD05) for a billing document to send an automatic mail to "send to Party" along with the existing print output (ZD02).
ZD02 is triggered automatically on saving the billing document where as ZD05 has to be added manually to the output of the billing document.
Every time we add ZD05 manually, system automatically adds/trigger ZD02 automatically along with ZD05. We dont want this additional ZD05 output to be triggered on adding ZD02.
It will be of great help if anyone can let me klnow the configuration setting which we can do to stop this.
Points assured.
Warm Regards,
Jatinder Bansal

Hi there,
Check what do you have in default settings. You should have "send immediately while saving the application" to trigger the O/p immediately. Transmission medium should be external send to trigger it as a mail O/p.
Also maintain the condition records. Only then O/p will trigger automatically.
Try checking the requirement that is assigned to the O/p in the determination procedure. See if there is any condition to triggger ZD05 & ZD02 together.

Sivanand

Problem in customizations after Issue Output of a Billing Document (VF02)

Dear Friends,
I am facing some problem while I do repeat output of a Billing Transaction. (VF02->GoTo->Header->Output). There are some customizations done in our system that whenever an Output is processed in our system, an xml file should be created and placed on application server (Which would then be printed in some Legacy system).
The custmizations for this has been done SPRO -> Sales and Distribution -> Billing Documents -> Invoice Lists ->Maintain Output for Invoice Lists -> Output Type.
Now my problem is that XML file creation program works in the Dialog mode and I am able to create the XML file and make an entry of this file in a Z table as per my program logic.
But when the processing is automatically through some files coming from application server, some of the files are missed. I want to figure out under which conditions my program to create XML file fails.
I tried debugging this program by puttinga hard coded break-point as well but the control does not stops there.
Could any one please help me how can we debug the program in such scenario.
Thanks a Lot for your kind help!!!
Regards,
Lalit Kabra

There was some issue in the RFC setup of our system because of which when fies were processed in bulk, some of them were missed out. It was like connection issue. Hence I did not put the soln here as I could not get the answer of this problem by doing some thing in ABAP.
Apologies for the same.

Output condition in Billing document

Hi,
I am facing problem while creating billing and it's related output condition record based on the access sequence.
1. We added new key field as 'WERKS' in the billing V3 access sequence based on the user exit.
2. It's customized in all the ways and condition record has been created based on the required key combination.
3. The problem I am facing only when creating a Billing (VF01). The required output type with the output device are perfectly coming automatically based on the record-VV31.
4. *After saving the billing and going into VF02 or VF03 there was no output condition type and device. The entire line is disappeared.*
I check almost all the settings. If anybody can help on this it's really appreciated.
Thanks.
Vijay

hi,
i can surely tell you that there is some issue with customized user exit which have developed
as you said after saving some billing document you are getting the issue.
please debugg with the ABAP technical person and with the help of him you can find out what and where it went wrong.

Subsequent determination of new Message Output in SD Billing Document

Hi Colleagues.
We have created a new output billing type that we want to retrospectively apply to previously posted billing documents
The new message type appears in all new billing documents and also appears when we go to change the billing document via VF02
What I want to do is apply the new message type to the previously posted billing documents
Is there a way that I can do this in bulk (I have tried VF31 but cannot find any documents)
Regards
Steve

Hi Steve
For the output there will be a program assigned , with the help of Technical consultant , ask them to include the logic in the program telling that a message has to come for all new billing documents in VF02 mode .or a new Message has to come for the previously posted billing documents

Assignment of output type to billing document

I have a billing document for which output type is not assigned.
Now, whenever I am trying to take the print by VF02, it is asking for output type. and i am giving any output type, the error is coming that " No output type is assigned to the billing document".
Please suggest, whether we need to assign the output type to the billing document??

Hi Praveen,
<b>You should have a output determination procedure along with the billing type assigned to the output type(for eg: RD00,RD01 etc).Apart from this you should have a valid condition record which you create using VV31</b> in which you can control the key combination by maintaining chosen fields in the condition table which pulls the data as per the access sequence and provide you enough combination(for eg: for a certain sales org and Billing type combination etc )
In the condition record you define the medium,dispatch time and language and not forgetting the output device as well.
Hope this info has been useful.

The output problem for billing document.

Hi,
I have a problem with the printing of a billing document. I did set up the output determination of a billing document, but when I try and print, the Issue Output To window pops up with the Print Preview button and the print button. When I click on the print preview button, then it is ok but when click on the print button then the window close and nothing happens. When I click on the Print button it give me a message that output could not be issued. and it shows for only two document's.
please help,
Regards
Subhash

Did you check the Medium(Print) in the Output determination record and also check for what medium the form is assigned in the NACE transaction.
Both the mediums should be the same.

Defualt Output Types on Billing Document Upon Creation

Need to know if it is possible through configuration to default specific output types on a Billing Document upon creation. We have created a few SAP Smart Forms for print for SD Billing Documents that typically we would have users set up via transaction VA02 Goto>Header>Output. We have run into issue though becuase these users cannot have access to VA02, so we are looking for an alternative to default the output types so that from initial screen on VA03 the can go to Billing>Issue to Output and select the type. If nt standard configuration does anyone know if this has been done via custom dev.
Thanks!

Dear Brendan,
If you use VV11 and make the output type default for the given sales order type (key combination)then there is no need to maintain it every time in va02, you can get the output directly in the VF03 >sales document >issue output to.

Assign New Output type to billing Document

Hello,
I have created a new output type.I wish to assign this output type to my billing document through VF02(Manually). But when clicking on the matchcode to select the newly created Output type, it doesnt exist. And when I try to write it and save, i get an error message: "Output XXXX is not defined"
I double checked in Tcode NACE and the configuration seems ok; the program, smartform, routines and medium was correctly filled in.
Could you guys please help me on this? What is to be done ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You created your "output type " for aplication V3 (billing) ?
Also, you have to create a "procedure" (see button in NACE) and provide your output type for procedure V10000 (billing).
(the F4 is selected from T683S -> procedures)

In VF01, before saving the billing document, can we use "issue output to"

In VF01 transaction before saving the billing document, can we use "issue output to" under Billing Document in Menu.
i.e., can we enable the option "Billing Document -> Issue output to -> Issue output to"

Hi,
No as a standard, unless the billing document is created and released to accounting, you can't use issue output to.
