FI and Billing Rate configuration

Question Deleted. Posted in next thread.

HI,
You may need to use something other than 0010 or 0020 as a sub transaction in DST CST field in the rates. 0010/0020 are special subs used internally in the programs to roll up all the consumption billing charges into one receivable. Hence, use something other than that.
Let meknow if you have any questions.

Biller Direct configuration for AR and AP

Hello,
I have Biller Direct 6.0 installed and already configured XCM, but I would like to know if its possible to configure the application with Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable at the same time to show bills from both?
Thanks.

Variant configuration statistics of sales order and billing document

Is there any transaction that allow me to get statistics from the sales orders and billing document for configurable materials ? (like VA05) better if using the values of the characteristics that make up the positions of order.
Thera are any information from "Sales Information System" using LIS?
Thanks.

Hi,
With LIS, we'll find different infostructures.
See this link to configure LIS reports :
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/c1/375723449a11d188fe0000e8322f96/frameset.htm
Using many infostructures before to see sales analysis.
Another solution :
In sales order (by user exit), copy characteristics in new fields in VBAP.
Then, you can use these fields in VA05 (add user exit) or new ABAP report.

How to configure HFM to allow loading of EOM and AVG rates?

I am new to HFM and would appreciate some assistance with loading of Exchange rates. I have created the currency members in the Value and Account Dimensions, and have also created two additional accounts (in the Accounts dimension) to capture the EOM and AVG rates, and tagged these as "currencyrate" in account type. How do I get the rates to appear in C1 and C2 so that I can load EOM and AVG rates? Firstly, the TO and FROM rates do not appear in C1 & C2 for me to select (via a Grid). And when I tried to load the data via a flat file, the system highlights that the intersection is invalid..
Scenario;Year;Period;View;Entity;Value;Account;ICP;C1;C2;C3;C4;Amount
Actual;2013;Jul;YTD;[None];<Entity Currency>;EOMRate;[ICP None];AUD;USD;[None];[None];X.XXXX
When I tried creating the currencies in C1 & C2, the system rejected the members due to duplication (ie in the Value dimension)
Assistance appreciated.
Thanks
JC

Hi JC,
To view/load the rates in a grid you'll want to select [Currencies] from View option in your Member Selection. View is the first of the three icons at the top of the screen (View, Filters, and Options). Once you select [Currencies] you'll see a list comprised of all members you've previously added to the Value dimension.
Your flat file looks good, however, you might try loading to [None] in the Value dimension rather than <Entity Currency>. Also, confirm the members to which you're loading in C1 and C2 exist in the Value dimension.
Note: you can also view/load rates using HsSetValue formulas.
Thanks,
Erich

Update KOMV-KBETR field for sales order and billing

I would like to update the KOMV-KBETR (condition amount or percentage) under condition tab for both Sales order and billing.
example:There are two condition types ZA00 and ZB00 and need to get the KBETR value from ZA00 and add it to KBETR value of ZB00 and update the sum in KBER value of ZB00.
1. creation of sales order & billing.
2. Change of sales order & billing.
3. For single & multiple line items in both sales order & billing.
4. during updation of price in the change mode of sales order & billing.
5.When user click on Update button in the condition tab(i.e., when clicked on Carryout new pricing)
I tried with the VOFM routine but as the routine is triggering multiple times the sum is calculated again and again.For that I set flags also.It is working for sales orders but for billing creation the field XKOMV-KBETR is cleared after this routine.
So I would like to know are there any EXITS for this scenario or any one entountered the similiar issue which I am facing.

Hi Brad,
It is an Client requirement.So need to do the addition of that condition types.
Can you please let me know the configuration point where we can do it and the condition type which we need to update the Rate/Amount value.ie., KOMV-KBETR is and Price list value and not the subtotal one.
Thanks,

Automatic Delivery, PGI and Billing

Hi SD gurus,
Will appreciate the feedback on this. In standard SAP, upon creating and saving of sales order, we need to create outbound delivery ( and do picking for picking-relevant item ), then do PGI. Upon that, create billing document and save.
My question is, if upon creating and saving of sales order, I want to make the subsequent processes runs automatically, how can it be done ?
The triggering part from saving the sales order - can that be done via userexit ? If so, which userexit can I look into ?
For the automation of delivery, PGI issue and billing, are there any BAPI or userexit that can accomodate that ? If so, can anyone be kind enough to pinpoint to me how to locate it and if possible, what are the key things I need to look into ? I believe it can be done via BDC as well but I'm not too sure how to go around it.
Really looking forward to some valuable feedbacks here. Many thanks way in advance.
Warmest Regards,
Janice

Hi Janie,
   You can also create a BDC program where everything would be created on its own.You can take the help of ABAPer for this purpose.
It will also do the availability check and in your program you can create the logic that PGI would be done only if the confirmation date in the schedule line is today's date.
We ourselves have created the same scenario in our own project and it has worked really well.
                                           OR
Configure the sales order such that the delivery is created on saving the document. This can be achieved in sales order type.
Create a Batch job which does the subsequent steps.
On creation of delivery, use the function module 'ws_delivery_update' or 'SD_DELIVERY_UPDATE_PICKING_1' or 'BAPI_OUTB_DELIVERY_CONFIRM_DEC' [take the Help of an ABAPer] to perform the PGI. In the end use the transaction for billing due list to create the billing documents.
Reward points if it works.

Difference between invoice and billing document

Hi ,
As an ABAPer , I am finding it very difficult to find the difference between the billing and invoice.
If both are different, then how these documents are configured.
thanks
Devi Reddy

Hi,
No difference between invoice and billing document.
But If we want to inform the payable to the customer we use the terminalogy invoice.
Example Credit meomo, debit memo. etc ...
As there is no difference , both have the same document types.
thanks

Lookout OPC Client – Asynchronous I/O and Update Rate serious problems (Sequence of data)

I am using the Lookout OPCClient driver to connect to AB PLCs (EtherNet/IP protocol) and power measurement equipment (Modbus TCP protocol). The OPC server is the NI OPC Servers. The data that are read out from PLCs and PMs are energy meter readings, energy counters, power, voltage, current, frequency, power factor and el. energy quality measurements (THD). That energy meter readings are being stored in SQL database.
I am experiencing a serious problem regarding the accuracy of the meter readings. Several times per day, randomly, meter readings are losing the time sequence. For example, sequence is: 167, after few seconds 165, 166. In other words, present value followed by two previous old values. That generates a serious problem in our application that is expecting a naturally rising sequence of counter values.
Analyzing further, I isolated the problem to the connection between Lookout OPCClient and OPC Server. I made a simple application in Lookout 6.7 (opcproc.lkp, attached) with OPCClient parameters: NIOPCServers, OPC2, Asynchronus I/O, Update rate: 10000, Deadband: 0.0, that is reading just one tag from NI OPC Servers demo application (simdemo.opf).
By using OPC diagnostic tool from NI OPC Servers I record the sequence of OPC requests and responses. I found out that OPCClient sends every 2.5 sec “IOPCAsyncIO2::Refresh2()” call that is request for refreshing of all items in one OPC group. Few milliseconds later OPC Sever responds with callback function “IOPCDataCallback:: OnDataChange()(Device Refresh)” that actually refresh the data.
This periodic sequence is intrinsic to the OPCClient and cannot be disabled or changed (by my knowledge). This sequence is periodically interrupted by “IOPCDataCallback:: OnDataChange()” caused by update rate parameter of OPCClient (client is subscribed to server for periodic update of changed items).
In the case of demo application on every 4 refresh callbacks caused by refresh requests (2.5 sec) there is one update subscription callback determined by Update rate (10 sec).
QUESTION 1:
What is the purpose of update sequence and update rate when we have every 2.5 sec fresh values?
PROBLEM
The problem arises when we have a large number of items in OPC group. In that case the OPC Server starts to queue refresh requests because they cannot be fulfilled in 2.5 sec time because of large number of I/O points that must be scanned. At the same time update subscription callbacks are running at the period determined by Update rate. I observed in my production system that regular update callbacks has higher priority than refresh callbacks from the queue. That causes the loosing of timed sequence of data. After the update callback with fresh data, sometimes follow one or two refresh callbacks from queue with old (invalid) data. By adjusting Update rate parameter (1 hour, 2hours …) I can postpone the collision of data refreshes but I cannot eliminate it. Furthermore, the 2.5 sec automatic refresh are large burden for systems with many I/O points.
QUESTION 2:
Is there a way to disable automatic refresh request every 2.5 sec and just use update requests determined by Update rate?
QUESTION 3:
Is there a way (or parameter) to change the period of automatic refresh (2.5 sec)?
This problem is discovered for Lookout 6.5, 6.6 and 6.7 so I could say it is intrinsic to OPCClient. If I use synchronous I/O requests there is not an automatic refresh, but that is not an option for large systems.
Thanks!

The physical connection from LV to the switch is (I believe) copper crossover to fiber converter into a switch. Then, fiber from the switch to the end device (relay). The relay has all of the typical modbus registries and has been verified by inducing signals in to the system and measured/polled in LabVIEW and observed Variable Monitor. I am working with LV 8.2 and 8.5.
An OPC server would only add an additional translation of addressing within the configuration. The only real draw back would be the network overhead required to do this processing and not being representative of the end design configuration.
I will reiterated my question in another way:
I must answer the question to management that relates to data collection, test results and analysis; how often are you polling the client in relation to the outcomes measured? At this time I can not point at any configuration in the set up and execution that directs the data framing rate. I only measure the traffic and work with results. This needs to be clearly identified based on the relay modbus/tcp design capability of supporting an fixed number of client requests per second.
For testing purposes, I would like to be able to stress the system to failure and have prove capabilities with measured data. The present problem is that I have no basis to establish varying polling rates that effect the measured data transmission.
This raises another question. What handles the Variable Monitor data requests and how is this rate determined?
Thanks for your interest in my efforts.

Difference amount in sales order and billing document (For one line item)

Hi Experts,
User created sales order with 3 line items and billing document. but problem is that there is difference in value of sale order and billing only for line item 10. The remaining items values are same in sales order & billing doc.if I check in sales order condition I found that VPRS condition is used and the value is 692.13and the amount is 3245.26in sales order. But if suppose I check the same value in billing doc the value is 0.69 and the amount is 3245.28. Can u suggest me which configuration I have to check for this.
I also checked change lock but there is no change in sales and billing document & Material
Regards
Sunina agarwal

Morning Sunina
Now consider this scenario
Item a - 10
Item b - 20
Item c - 30
and the validity of condition rec for item C is 31st of Jan
after 31st JAN the record changes or there isn't any.
In Copy control the pricing type is 'B' i.e., carry out new pricing.
Now if the document is created in January it will take all the above prices. and this document is then billed in Feb. Now the copycontrol, whilst copying the prices, will predetermine the same.
Now your task is to check if there was user intervention, check the pricing in order and check what condition types got affected in order and in billing.
If your scenario is still not amongst the above cases...
I don't know what to do, if you figure out please let us also know, god know when we would face the same scenario....
Take care

Cost in Sales Order and Billing not match

Dear all,
I am facing a problem that the cost in Sales Order and Billing (order-related billing) not match.
The error seems related to sales order is getting moving price (MBEW-VERPR) as cost but billing is calculated by issued amount / qty.
Here's the detail (refer to the screen captures).
Sales qty = 1330 PC.
Local currency = HKD, sales doc currency = RMB, exchange rate = 1.26215.
Condition type ZCSR, condition category = G (Internal price).
When creating sales order ,
Cost is take from MBEW-VERPR => 1.86 HKD
Cost converted to doc currency => 1.473 RMB => 1.47 RMB
Total amount = 1,330 x 1.47 = 1,955.10 RMB
When creating billing from the delivery note,
Cost seems taking from total value divided by total stock in the article doc.
Cost = 2,477.82 / 1,330 = 1.863022556390 HKD => 1.476 RMB => 1.48 RMB.
Total amount = 1330 x [(2,477.82 / 1,330) / 1.26215] = 1,963.17 RMB
My goal is to align the same cost and amount in sales order and billing.
Please help.
Thank you very much.

Dear joan,
Thank you very much for your advise.
I implemented example 1 as in note 24832, trying to disable price re-determination in billing.
However it doesn't work.
Added code in example 1:
Copy control Delivery type LF to invoice F2, pricing type changed to X:
Still ZCSR re-determined but not copying from sales order (1.47 RMB):

Cross-Company Stock Transfer with Delivery and Billing

Hello Fellow Experts and Friends,
I have a situation at a client in California. The client does Make-to-Order sales. The only materials kept in inventory are raw materials and NREs. This client has plants in several countries around the world but only two are on SAP. The current version is 4.6C.
The scenario goes like this. The plant in China (CC: 2020, Plnt: 0020) wants to order raw materials from the US plant (CC: 1010, Plnt: 0010). If the US plant does not have enough stock in inventory, an order needs to be placed with a local vendor. When all materials a re available to ship,we need to deliver to and invoice the China plant. Additionally, shipment notification needs to be sent to the plant in China.
IWould someone please be so kind as to helpme with a "Best Practice" process flow for Cross-Company STO with Delivery and Billing? I also need guidlines for customizing the process in the IMG. This process must include issuing a PO to a local vendor for ordering additional inventory. For the shipment notification, I was thinking of an EDI Advance Shipment Notice if the receiving plant uses EDI. I need a different option, If the receiving palnt does not use EDI.
I am open to your suggestions.
Thanks,
AJ

Arthur,
Once this is correctly set up it works very, very well. And the cross-company supply scenario is actually fairly simple, streamlined and automated. However, this is NOT such a simple process to set up.
True cross-company supply, all the way through, requires a LOT of configuration which ties in SD, MM, FI, and EDI. It uses "wrap-around" IDocs to do some of the cross-posting in other company codes. There is also the issue of Intercompany markups, as well as Intercompany eliminations.
There are LOTS of folks who do the painful process of the FULL Order to Cash in one company code, and the full Purchase to Pay in the other. But this is NOT the right solution and requires almost twice as much transaction processing.
Just for the Intercompany setup, start to finish, I've been working on a "cookbook" to set up all of the modules for almost 10 years now. I've done it several times, at several companies and it works very well once it is all in place. However, that cookbook document is about 100 pages long (config settings, IMG settings, master data requirements, EDI settings, etc.).
Also, in your scenario you are talking about multi-sourcing parts from other locations. All of the related MRP settings are a separate setup issue.
What you are asking is WAYYYYyyy beyond the scope of forum posting. So if your company or client could use some help, please feel free to contact me.

MyRIO memory, data transfer and clock rate

Hi
I am trying to do some computations on a previously obtained file sampled at 100Msps using myRIO module. I have some doubts regarding the same. There are mainly two doubts, one regarding data transfer and other regarding clock rate.
1. Currently, I access my file (size 50 MB) from my development computer hard drive in FPGA through DMA FIFO, taking one block consisting of around 5500 points at a time. I have been running the VI in emulation mode for the time being. I was able to transfer through DMA from host, but it is very slow (i can see each point being transferred!!). The timer connected in while loop in FPGA says 2 ticks for each loop, but the data transfer is taking long. There could be two reasons for this, one being that the serial cable used is the problem, the DMA happens fast but the update as seen to the user is slower, the second being that the timer is not recording the time for data trasfer. Which one could be the reason?
If I put the file in the myRIO module, I will have to compile it each and every time, but does it behave the same way as I did before with dev PC(will the DMA transfer be faster)? And here too, do I need to put the file in the USB stick? My MAX says that there is 293 MB of primary disk free space in the module. I am not able to see this space at all. If I put my file in this memory, will the data transfer be faster? That is, can I use any static memory in the board (>50MB) to put my file? or can I use any data transfer method other than FIFO? This forum (http://forums.ni.com/t5/Academic-Hardware-Products-ELVIS/myRIO-Compile-Error/td-p/2709721/highlight/... discusses this issue, but I would like to know the speed of the transfer too.
2. The data in the file is sampled at 100Msps. The filter blocks inside FPGA ask to specify the FPGA clock rate and sampling rate, i created a 200MHz derived clock and mentioned the same, gave sampling rate as 100Msps, but the filter is giving zero results. Do these blocks work with derived clock rates? or is it the property of SCTL alone?
Thanks a lot
Arya

Hi Sam
Thanks for the quick reply. I will keep the terminology in mind. I am trying analyse the data file (each of the 5500 samples corresponds to a single frame of data) by doing some intensive signal processing algorithms on each frame, then average the results and disply it.
I tried putting the file on the RT target, both using a USB stick and using the RT target internal memory. I thought I will write back the delay time for each loop after the transfer has occured completely, to a text tile in the system. I ran the code my making an exe for both the USB stick and RT target internal memory methods; and compiling using the FPGA emulater in the dev PC VI. (A screenshot of the last method is attached, the same is used for both the other methods with minor modifications. )To my surprise, all three of them gave 13 ms as the delay. I certainly expect the transfer from RT internal memory faster than USB and the one from the dev PC to be the slowest. I will work more on the same and try to figure out why this is happening so.
When I transferred the data file (50MB) into the RT flash memory, the MAX shows 50MB decrease in the free physical memory but only 20MB decrease in the primary disk free space. Why is this so? Could you please tell me the differences between them? I did not get any useful online resources when I searched.
Meanwhile, the other doubt still persists, is it possible to run filter blocks with the derived clock rates? Can we specify clock rates like 200MHz and sampling rates like 100Msps in the filter configuration window? I tried, but obtained zero results.
Thanks and regards
Arya

Auto Creation of Delivery with PGI and Billing after creation of Sale Order

Dear Experts,
I am having one Req. like...After creation of sales order ..automatic Delivery and Billing should be done.
Right now i m able to create automatic Delivery but PGI is not happening for that delivery.
Is there any configuration I have to do ... or by any user exit we can get the solution.
Can u please provide me solution for this.
Regards,
Sanket.

Hello,
yes, you can create the PGI Atomatically by BATCH JOB using the program nder the VL23 transaction code.
Goto the Transaction code SM36 to create a job for the program SAPMSSY0 which is the program for the AUTO PGI
create a variant for the Delivery document types and sales organisation combinatioans and add this variant to the bath job created in SM36.
Set the time of the Job to run after every 5 minutes, so once the job exected it will pcik all the Deliveries which are pending for the PGI.
After the PGI done you can run SDBILLDL program to create the Billing for all the document which were cleared and due for Billing.
Hope it is clear for yo, please revert if you need frther clarification .
