Inter-company billing - Free of charge item

Hello,
Normal STO process is created, between different plants and company codes. Let's say 1 STO has 2 lines, item A and item B.
Item A has a cost but item B is free of charge,
During billing creation, only item A is created as item B is free. But how can item B be added to the billing document also?
Reason being for customs clearance all materials need to be on the billing document, regardless of price.
Thanks,
Jake.

Hi Jake,
Please, see these notes:
SAP Note 109254 - Customizing stock transport order Cross Company
SAP Note 308989 - Consulting note for cross-company transactions
SAP Note 338922 - Analysis note for cross-company transactions (delivery)
and related notes
See that in note 109254 how to rule the copy from delivery to invoice. You determine price in invoice (Pricing type 'B').
Perhaps you can see in VOFM (copying requirement 018) in this coding:
* check if delivery is valuated
if not novaluation is initial.
    perform vbfs_hinzufuegen using '000000' '196' space
                                                   space space.
    sy-subrc = 4.
    exit.
endif.
So, perhaps in this last case you can avoid that item will be copied to invoice.
I hope this helps you
Regards

Free of charge items in billing document

Hello!
I need to include free of charge item RENN (return order) into billing document. I am to use such item in output document.
But when I create billing doc from order or from delivery I recive messagelike that - "3610000010 900003 Item category ZLR ZRNN cannot be invoiced with billing type ZRE" (ZRL is copy from LR. ZRNN is copy from RENN)
Is it error in customizing or system limitation?
Andrey Garshin.

Hi Andrey,
This is an issue with the copy control. Kindly check the settings in copy control VTFL.
Check for delivery to billing type ZRE if the mention item categories are maintained.
You need to include the missing item category there.

Free of charge item in PO

Hello all,
I have a situation where I have a third party order with 3 line items. Line item 30 is free. When a pur req is created it has only item 10 and 20 in there and not the 30. And since the PO is copied from the pur req, the PO is also minus item 30 which is free of charge. I need to have this line in the PO with 0.00 price. This also need to show up in MIRO. And the final billing document should also have the line item 30 with 0.00 price.
I have tried another way of having a price for item 30 in the third party order. Which then copied to the Pur req and ultimately to the PO. I changed the value for it to 0.00. But the MIRO did not have the line item 30 and the F2 invoice too did not it pick up. Please let me know how can I make this to work.
Appreciate your help and time.
Thanks

Thanks for your reply. I checked that box and it becomes a free of charge item. Now when I do the MIRO that particular line item is missing. And when I do the F2 invoice for the third party order too that line is missing. My requirement is that I should be able to see in the F2 invoice as a free item. This is required for customs purposes.
I have also tried checking the box : " Final Invoice " in the PO for that particular line item. ANd the FREE check box is still there , and the F2 invoice has the free line item but it is showing the std price. I would like to see the price as $0.00.
Appreciate your help and time
Thanks

Free of charge Item determination in SO with cost and revenue transfer

Hi,
Please guide me on the followings.
I have a following requirement for determining the free goods in the sales order .We have two plants
1. Plant 1 is for valuated materials
2. Plant 2 is for Free of charge Items
Free of charge items which are given to the customers are supplied by the vendors and stored in the plant meant for the Free of charges items. But sometimes when free of charge items are not available in the stock then user take FOC item from the plant which is meant for the valuated materials and send it to the customers as a free of charge item.
User wants to transfer the cost of the FOC item to the main item when FOC material is taken from the valuated plant and sent to the customer.
Similarly when there is no stock of material in the valuated plant then user take the same material from the Plant2(Non-valuated) and send the material to the customer. In this case user wants to have the revenue posted in the respective G/L Account.
But it should also appear as a free of charge items in the billing document.
Regards
Rahul

hi,
transfer of cost from sub item to main item is configured in the delivery to billing copy control for the main item. go to VTFL > select the required item cateogry > here at the bottom you will find a check box Cummulate cost. Tick it.
Not really what you meant COPA purposes. But the pricing conditions are mapped to COPA value fields at KE4I transaction.

Credit memo for Inter-company billing

Hi
We are trying to create a credit memo with reference to an inter company billing document. The business requirement is to create a credit memo to adjust the invoice value due to wrong value posted in the original inter-company invoice. Hence we do not want to use the sales returns route for this.
So, we are trying to create a credit memo request (ZCR) in VA01 with reference to the Inter company billing document (ZIV). We have maintained the copy control between ZCR and ZIV.
However, when creating a credit memo request (ZCR) with respect to the intercompany billing document, we get the below error in the sales order.
"Item category ZNLC is not defined" and "Check Item copy" with Message No: V1324.
ZNLC is the item category that we used in the intercompany delivery document.
We are able to ignore this message in sales order screen and save the credit memo request in VA01 and also create credit memo (ZG2) in VF01.
Pl provide your inputs on whether we are missing any other configuration.
Regards,
John

Hi
I have maintained the item level copy control settings as below.
In the copy control (VTAF) between ZCR (Credit memo request) and ZIV (Inter company billing) at the item level for ZNLC (Inter company item category coming source document), the following setup has been maintained
Copying requirements : 303
Copy schedule lines : Blank
Pos / neg qty : Blank
Pricing type : D
Update doc flow : X
Do not copy batch : blank
Pl let me know if there are any other settings to be done in config.
Thanks,

Free of charge item processing - France business requirement

Hi,
For free of charge sales, the net value of an item is made to zero using free item category in the sales order and the billing with zero value is released to accounting.
One of the requirements for France is for Free of charge items, though the value of the product is zero, the relevant tax codes needs to be transmitted from SD to FI so that the tax value(zero) + tax code details will be available in the VAT reporting.
It looks the OSS notes 34526 - Delivery free of charge and value-added tax provides recommendation to resolve the above requirements. Have anyone implemented the solution based on this OSS note or used any other approach? The condition type Z002 provided as example in the note, reducing value of the net value instead of negating tax value.
Appreciate any feedback on this.
Regards,

Thanks for responding. Below are my responses,
How ( with which tables and fields ) you are developing VAT report in FI?.Why I am asking is,with tax code only we can track the tax amount in FI level.If the tax code related data is zero then how and what based on can we get that data in FI level to develop a report?.
I consulted the same with FI colleagues and per their response, an entry has to be made in the BSET table in order for the VAT report to populate the relevant tax code and values. As mentioned in the caption of the thread, it is for our French business requirement. Our business users indicated that when a product is sent as delivery free of charge, they wanted to show the details in VAT reporting (I am not an VAT expert, and not an expert with French laws). We have added tax codes for relevant taxes, including zero tax and followed the recommendation provided in the OSS note that I have mentioned earlier.
Why dont you want to develop a VAT report in SD module ?.Do you have any issues over there ( in SD ) ?
Our requirement is NOT to develop the VAT from SD module, however FI folks asked to pass the tax code/tax value from SD transactions (billing document to FI). Hence I raised this thread in SD area to see whether anyone has accomplished a solution for this similar requirements.
Thanks,

Use Tax for Free of charge items

Here is the scenario:
In our Business, there is a process to give a Free item with mostly all the products sold online. In SAP, we will create regular sales order with 1 line item as TAN and other item category as TANN.
The Business wants to calculate Use tax on the 2nd line item where Net value=0. As we use the same Pricing procedure, we cannot charge different taxes based on line item.
The other option was to send the cost details to Vertex, so that they can store it in Vertex and use for Tax calculations. The technical issue is that whenever the Net value=0, Vertex RFC is not called.
We have proposed to create a report in SAP which will tell them the order details with Free items but this is not acceptable to Business.
Has anyone worked on such scenario where Use tax is calculated on the Sales side for Free of charge items.

The basic concept in tax is seller can levy the appropriate tax on the items which they are billing. This being the case, I am not sure, why for a free of charge item, tax should be levied. Can you please share in which Business process, this is being followed. Needless to mention, if at all you want to achieve this requirement, have a separate condition type for this free goods, set as statistical, so that, only tax portion would be posted to FI.

Order related Inter-company Billing (Third Party Order)

Hi SAP Gurus,
We are using SAP R/3 4.6C version. Normally, the inter-company billing are delivery related and this is working fine. I am configuring the order related Inter-company billing, i.e. Third Party drop shipment with Inter-company. I refered to SAP notes 203876, 63459, 381042 and maintained the copy control between OR => IVA (for TAS) as follows:
Copying requirement      = '013',
   Invoiced quantity        = 'F', (*)
   Quantity/value          = '+',
   Pricing type            = 'G'.
The issue I am facing is when I try to create an Inter-company invoice (after the F2 Customer invoice), the End customer details is being pulled instead of the Inter-company customer details. In other words the Inter-company invoice is also being issued to the End customer. Also the prices are showing in negative.
Kindly share with me if any of you guys know a solution for this. I have searched all the SAP forums, but couldn't find a similar issue.
My concern here is, in none of the SAP notes, there is no information about the copying requirement at the header level between OR=>IVA. I am not sure whether this is causing the issue.

Saravanan

Hello Mrinal,
Please review the note 381042 Order-related intercompany billing in Releases.
    o Report RVIVAUFT instead of report ZZIVAUFT
    o Standard requirement 036 'Item/order related IB'
       Use this requirement in the copying requirement for billing
       documents for your process flow.
    o Standard requirement 018 'Order-related IB' instead of
       customer-specific output requirement 990.
       Use this requirement in the output determination procedure of
       your billing documents (in the standard system, this is procedure
       V10000 'Billing outputs') for output type RDIV.
    o Standard ouptput type RDIV instead of customer-specific output
       type ZZIV.

Thanx in advance.

Dear Satya,
You can create the inter company bill with refrence to the service order
To do inter company billing settings go through this IMG path
IMG>Sales and Distribution>Billing-->Intercompany billing
Process steps for normal inter company process with delivery.
INTER COMPANY BILLING
Definition:
A company arranges direct delivery of the goods to the customer from the stocks of another company belonging to the same corporate group.
To put in simple terms, Company code A orders goods through its sales organization A from Plant B belonging to Company code B.
It is imperative that both Plants A & B should have the material. In other words, the material is created for both the Plants A & B + their respective storage locations.
Sales Organizations and Plants are uniquely assigned to Company codes. It is not possible to assign either a plant or a sales organization to more than one company code.
Sales organizations and plants assigned to each other need not belong to the same company code.
In other terms, a plant belonging to Company code A & assigned to Sales Organization A can also be assigned to Sales Organization B of Company Code B. This enables cross company sales.
PARTIES INVOLVED
1) End Customer 2) Ordering Company code 3) Supplying Company Code.
End customer:
Customer who orders goods from the ordering company code.
Ordering Company Code:
Which orders goods from Plant belonging to Supplying Company code through its sales organization and bills the end customer.
Supplying Company Code:
Supplies goods from its plant to the end customer specified by the ordering company code and bill the ordering company code.
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

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.
PRICING:
We need to maintain two pricing procedures RVAA01 & ICAA01. Pricing procedure RVAA01 represents condition type PR00 & any other discounts or surcharges that are meant for end customer.
We assign Pricing procedure RVAA01 to combination of Sales area (Of Ordering company code) + Customer Pricing Procedure + Document Pricing Procedure of Sales document type.
This pricing Procedure (RVAA01) is determined both at Sales Order level & Billing processing for the end customer. We maintain PR00 condition type to represent the ordering company code's price to the end customer.
Condition records for PR00 are maintained using organizational elements of Ordering company code, end customer & the Material.
Eg: Sales Org. of Ordering company code + End customer + Material.
We also need to maintain PI01 condition type to represent costs to Ordering company code (in other words revenue to supplying company code). It is statistical condition type & meant for information purpose only.
Condition records for PI01 are created with the following key combination:
Ordering sales Org + Supplying Plant + Material
Pricing Procedure ICAA01is determined at Intercompany billing processing level.
Pricing Procedure ICAA01 - Pricing Procedure for Inter company billing is assigned to the combination of: Sales Area (of supplying company code) + Document pricing Procedure of Billing document type IV + Customer Pricing Procedure of the Internal customer.
Pricing Procedure ICAA01 has condition type IV01 that represents revenues for Supplying company code in the intercompany billing.
PR00 condition type also appears in Intercompany billing document. It is for information purposes only and does not have bearing on the value of the document.
PI01 represented under pricing procedure RVAA01 is reference condition type for IV01 and the same is defined in the condition type IV01. Due to this these two condition types represent same value.
The condition type IV01 in intercompany billing document represents revenue to the Supplying Company. But its corresponding condition type PI01 in the billing document to the end customer is shown as a statistical item meant for information purposes.
In your requirenment there will not be delivery process in between service sales order and the intercompany bill so do the settings accordingly in the copy controls between service sales order type and inter company billing type.
I hope this will help you,
Regards,
Murali.

We also need to maintain PI01 condition type to represent costs to Ordering company code (in other words revenue to supplying company code). It is statistical condition type & meant for information purpose only.
Condition records for PI01 are created with the following key combination:
Ordering sales Org + Supplying Plant + Material
Pricing Procedure ICAA01is determined at Intercompany billing processing level.
Pricing Procedure ICAA01 Pricing Procedure for Inter company billing is assigned to the combination of:
1) Sales Area (of supplying company code) + Document pricing Procedure of Billing document type IV + Customer Pricing Procedure of the Internal customer.
Pricing Procedure ICAA01 has condition type IV01 that represents revenues for Supplying company code in the intercompany billing.
PR00 condition type also appears in Intercompany billing document. It is for information purposes only and does not have bearing on the value of the document.
PI01 represented under pricing procedure RVAA01 is reference condition type for IV01 and the same is defined in the condition type IV01. Due to this these two condition types represent same value.
The condition type IV01 in intercompany billing document represents revenue to the Supplying Company. But its corresponding condition type PI01 in the billing document to the end customer is shown as a statistical item meant for information purposes.
Condition Type VPRS in the intercompany-billing document indicates cost to the supplying company code.
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).
ILLUSTRATION:
STEP 1: Create Sales Order
Manually Enter the Delivery Plant of the Supplying Company Code:
OBSERVE CONDITIONS SCREEN FOR ITEM:
PR00 represents Price to the end customer (in other words, revenue for the ordering company).
PI01 represents cost to ordering company (in other words, revenue for the supplying company). It is represented as statistical item only.
DELIVERY:
Delivery is carried out from the supplying point & hence we can observe that it is done from shipping point assigned to the supplying point.
Subsequently, Picking & PGI are carried out.
BILLING TO END CUSTOMER:
T-Code: VF01
Create Intercompany Billing:
T-code: VF01
OBSERVE THE CONDITIONS SCREEN OF THE INTERNAL INVOICE:
IV01 Condition type represents revenue for the supplying company code.
VPRS condition type represents cost to the supplying company code.
PR00 in intercompany billing document displays amount billed to the end customer. It serves as just an information item and is inactive.
If the ordering company enters the incoming invoice manually, the delivering company can print out an invoice document with the help of output type RD00, which is then sent to the Payer.
If automatic invoice receipt has been agreed, we must use the SD output control functions to ensure that output type RD04 is found in internal billing. In R/3 system, output determination procedure V40000, which includes this output type, is assigned to Intercompany billing type IV.
The automatic posting to the vendor account is initiated when output type RD04 is processed. The system uses the EDI output type INVOIC in the FI variant.
To ensure that payables are posted in financial accounts of the ordering company, the delivery company must be created as a vendor.
Configure Intercompany Stock Transport Order
Material should exist in both the plants (Delivering & Ordering),
Internal customer should be assaigned to the ordering plant ( MM -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Setup stock transport order -> assign the internal customer to the ordering plant and assign the Sales area of the internal customer.

Issue in inter company billing

HI
when i am doing inter company billing , i am getting the issue like XXXX sales organization item 0000 is not defined.
i have setup all relavents setting which are related intercompany .
Could you help out in this case.
Thanks,
Phani

i have setup all relavents setting which are related intercompany
Then why system is giving the error message. Please dont conclude you have done everything as you will NOT find the root cause of the issue. Unless you missed out something, system will not throw such an error and I am sure, you will accept this.
Coming to the issue, check in IMG Path MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set Up Stock Transport Order > Define Shipping Data for Plants. There your sending plant should be treated as a customer and assigned along with the required sales area.
thanks

Free of charge item tax calculation

Hi all
I have a requirement for VAT calculation for free of charge item in sales order.
For these items (item category TANN) with VPRS for internal price condition and MWST for VAT tax condition i'm able to calculate the value for VAT accounts purpose.
Is there any exit that enables me to create this? Will it be in SD invoice registry?
thanks in advance

Hi
If you are asking whether the congiguration is possible it is certainly possible in standards itself with alignment of condition types
Normally we will place condition type MWST after R100
In this case MWST should be placed before R100
It is the same as suggested by Mr. Murali but the important thing which he missed out is After placing R 100 after MWST you have to Fill up FROM and TO for condition type R100 excluding the step nos of MWST
Suppose PR00 is step 10
Then it should be MWST Step 20
Then R 100 step 30 For this R100 you should fill up from and to as 10 and 10
Now when a material is Rs100 and 10 + 1 free is there and if the order is for 10 units and if the tax ix 4 %
then the nett value will be Rs 1000(10x100)
tax value will be Rs 44 (tax is calculated for 11 units at 4%)
