How to generate Billing Request Items in SAP CRM

Hi Folks,
We have requirements to create BRIs for Service contracts. Each BRI will create a Debit Memo Request in SAP ECC.
All Billing activities happens in ECC.
I did the following configuration:
1. Synchronization of master data (SAP CRM and SAP ECC)
2. Synchronization of pricing conditions (SAP CRM and SAP ECC)
Conditions are identical in both systems.
3. Customizing of service transactions in SAP CRM
You have set the External Billing indicator for the relevant item categories. You do this in Customizing for Customer Relationship Management, by choosing Billing Define Billing Relevance of Item Categories.
4. Customizing of controlling objects in SAP ECC
You have defined CRM controlling objects to which costs and revenue generated by external billing can be automatically assigned. You do this in Customizing, by choosingIntegration with Other SAP Components Customer Relationship Management Settings for Service Processing Controlling Integration
5. Controlling integration: Customizing: Integration with Other mySAP.com ComponentsCustomer Relationship Management Settings for Service Processing Billing Integration Map Transaction Types and Item Categories.
When i release the Contract items, I dont see any BRI created. I am not sure where should i check, if BRIs are created.
I have following questions:
1- Where to check if BRI is created for contract
2- How to generate BRI.
3- Can i debug the process of BRI creation? Is there any FM which gets called or BADI?
4. what am i missing in above config.
Any help, material will be helpful.
Regards,
Shastri.

Hi Naresh,
You need to use Billing Plans for Service Contracts Scenario to create BRI items.
In the Billing Plan - you can assign whether it is a Periodic Billing or Milestone Billing. Then you need to assign this billing plan to item categories. So based on the period (monthly,quarterly,yearly) - the BRI items will be generated.
So Please try using Billing Plans for your scenario. As you mentioned earlier, you are using ECC for all Billing purposes. So the system will create one Debit Memo Request document per Contract and it will each line item for each of the BRI's in Service Contract. System will not generate one DMR per BRI item.
You can check the BRI items generated at the item level --> Billing Plan Tab page (Assignment Block in Web UI).
Hope this helps.

Siraj

Billing Request Item

What is a Billing request Item BRI?
Thanks
Sonali

Hi Sonali,
Billing request item (BRI) are items to be billed that are generated from a billing plan using selected criteria such as general date information, start and end date, frequency, billing date and the billing creation date. Criteria are proposed here are proposed from the billing plan type. Billing request items also contain information on the settlement period and the amount for settlement. Billing request items can be used to create several settlements for a contract item, for example at regular intervals dusting the contract validity period.
Each BRI triggers a settlement after it has been released. (Exceptions here are billing request items with confirmation).
Settlement times and the generation period are defined by date rules in Customizing and these values are proposed in the license contract. You can change these values if necessary.

How to generate Billing for Service Order ?

how to generate Billing for Service Order ?

Hello,
You may do a resource related billing from the service order, but you need to maintain Resource Related billing profile in Service order --> Control tab. Once it is set you may generate the billing document (debit memo) from service order through DP90, provided the config is right.

How to generate specific # of items in tabular form from one item

Looking to display or render additional elements to a tabular form based on the number entered in a quantity field. ie. if someone orders 10 items, I would like to have 10 tabular items display on blur, so the operator can enter the data in those fields for the 10 items. Then of course I need all items processed on submit.
Is there a way to do this so the # of line items are rendered after a quantity has been entered to match or is this something that would have to be done with display values and a set number of items already on the page?
Thanks

How to generate Top sales report from SAP data ?

Hello experts,
I am completely a newbie to SAP BO , can any one guide me how to generate TOP sales of the year report from SAP data ?

Hi David,
First Let me know the Source & Tools to involve.
Let me go with the generic approach:
If the source is BW, then you can create the logic in query designer designer and then you can incorporate the data into the dashboard or webi or crystal report whatever its.
If the source is sql or anyother DB then it can also be achievable in crystal or webi to write the logic in top 10 values by ranking then you can incorporate the data into the dashboard, but here you can limit the top or bottom values.
Hope this helps, please revert for more clarifications on this.

How to load P&L items in SAP

Hi,
before Go-live we take all master data and transaction data from the client.
There are two scenarios.
1.Year End
2.Middle of the year
in the first case we upload only balance sheet items.
1.inventory 2.AP 3.AR 4.Asset 5.GL
depend upon requirement we create opening balance gl accounts and upload the balances.
In the second scenario (Middle of the year) we have to upload Profit & Loss items along with balance sheet. for this we need trail balance of the client.
My query is how to upload P&L balances in sap (middle of the year suppose April - June) . we asked client to give balances on 2-july.
incase of AP,AR,Asset should we follow same procedure ?
(take opening balance gl and upload).
how to upload P&L items ?
this is the querrry
Moderator: Please, search SDN; this question has been answered several times

Hi All,
Just to keep it available for other queries, I am posting this in SCN under this chain.
When we want the custom transaction variant (in this case ZGR_CL20N) to be active and the standard variant to be inactive for the tcode (in this case CL20N), we must click the "Deactivate standard variant" button under standard Variant tab.
Hence when we execute the CL20N then the CL20N Will be shown as per the custom variant ZGR_CL20N.
Thanks

How to generate Pay-in slip from SAP ECC 6.0

Hi SAP Guru,
Can u please tell me how to generate pay - in slip for depositing of checks into the bank from SAP ECC 6.0
Thanks

Dushyant,
Check whether the program is in TRDIR table or not,if it is there then it will be available else you need to talk to basis guys.
If the program is there and you want to revert to previous version then go to version management and select the version number and then click on the button RETRIEVE.
Smartforms don't haver the concept of version management and hence it is always advisable to download the smartform and then go ahead with the changes.If in case you want to revert to pervious version then you can upload the downloaded smartform and get back the previous version.

How to Generate a Spacer Item in 10.1.3

10.1.3.2 JDev, 10.1.3.1.26 JHS. Scenario: a two-column region where a couple items on the right need to have blank spaces between them so they line up with certain items on the left.
In 10.1.2 and before, we created non-base table VO attributes, set them as read-only and mixed them in with the input items. This generated a spacer item. In 10.1.3, we create non-VO attribute items but they take up less vertical space so the vertical alignment is difficult.
Is the best way to solve this to create a custom item template that is an objectSpacer tag instead of an inputText tag and attach that to the non-VO items? That seems like a kludge so I must be missing something basic.
Thanks,
Peter

Here's my solution:
1. Create a template called custom\item\form\formSpacer30.vm with the following contents:
<af:objectSpacer #ITEM_ID_IN_FORM() height="30" width="20" />2. Create an item in the group that is not bound to a Model attribute. The type is "textInput."
3. In the FORM_TEXT_INPUT template for that item enter "custom/item/form/formSpacer30.vm"
If anyone has done this differently or better, it would be of interest. My solution seems like a kludge. Also, it leads to an enhancement request to support the width and height properties of an af:objectSpacer. Currently, they need to be hard-coded into the template. If we had attributes like #HEIGHT_IN_FORM() and #WIDTH_IN_FORM() that translated the JHS def file attributes Height and Width to "height" and "width" attributes, you would not need to hard code the size in the template. At this point in my solution, you need to create separate template files for each different spacer size.

Header Partners not flowing into items in SAP CRM order and the same in ERP

Hi SAP Experts,
Our SAP CRM is upgraded from 4.0 to 7.0 version and ECC5.0 to ECC6.0 as well last year.
Initially , when the order is created in SAP CRM , the partners (sold to , ship to , payer and bill to ) are flowing to all items(same as header) and the same is transferring into ECC6.0 at header and items. Now if the partners are changed at header in CRM then those are not propagating to items and in ECC 6.0 at the header the partners are synchronized but at the items partners are not synchronizing(showing the same old values).
Can anyone provide solution for this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Screedhar,
From your description, seems that the cross system lock is not set up correctly in your system.
Please check SAP note 888665 which talks about how to set the cross system lock.

ICI - How to display custom error messages in SAP CRM

Hello,
we are working on a custom Contact Center which interfaces with SAP CRM Version 7 with Enhancement Package over ICI.
The basic call functions like accepting, hanging up, holding and retrieving are fully implemented and are working already.
Our goal is to display error messages in the CRM so that clients know there is something wrong, for example why he can't be log in successfully (e.g. the telephony server isn't reachable).
We already found the ICI Documentation file which provides us the CRM SOAP error codes and tried to send SOAP Fault messages, but never got
them to screen.
Please find an attached example screenshot what we mean exactly, reproduced by trying to make a call with CRM user while BCM CDT isn't
running in the background.
Regarding to this topic we've the following questions:
- Is it possible to display custom error messages on the CRM or is this functionality limited to SAP?
- Could you provide us some further information on how to use this feature exactly (implementation details?) and how the SOAP XML should look like to get it work?
Thank you in advance!
Best regards

I need to create an entity adapter and attach an error handler with the adapter? or can i handle that in the event handler itself. I coulnt find any api for handling errorsYou can do it both ways but since we are talking about event handler now, then in 9.x you need to extend com.thortech.xl.client.events.tcBaseEvent class for creating a event handler. In tcBaseEvent class there are various flavors of handleError method. So use that as per my note earlier and you should be good.

How to create a custom Report in SAP CRM using the Bol Framework

Hi Guys
I have developed a report in SE38 which calls a custom Function Module within it and it works all good.
Now I want to take my Function Module as well as the external structures I created for this report and use them to make a View in SAP CRM which will allow the user to make selection and then when they click on a button another view has to be shown which should have the content of the report based on the selection.
I know how to create a view based on the standard object types but this time I want to use my custom function Module..
Kindly advice or refer me to a link that might be useful.
