Invoice or Billing documents negative or positive signs in Tables

Hi,
How can we recognise the amount signs are negative or positive(+/-) in VBRK and VBRP tables for all Invoices and Billing documents.
Is there any indicator in any other table will expain the sign when it is storing in database tables.
for example: when i create a debit memo, how the configuration settings will decide negative or positive?
Where can i find this indicators....
Is this the right place to post this question, if not please guide me....
Thanks,
Fract

The positive or negative signs will be applied based on the Order type Document category. The code is in standard SAP.
Also For any custom condition types in pricing procedure, the positive or Negative signs will be applied based on the condition type defintion and also any routines assigned to the condition types.

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

Difference in the excise invoice and Billing document value

HI Experts,
I am working in a Excise based CIN scenario.
I am Abaper and wanted to solve an issue.
basically, We are creating billing document and then creating an excise invoice. but there is a diff between the excise invoice and billing value.
Any input will really help thanks...

Sorry for the delay in replying.
This particular scenario happened to only some invoices which were generated in a day.
After that particular day, this didnt happen but would like to know why it has happened since we didnt want the same to happen again in future.
it is not the billing value. its it billing duty applied on the value.

Zero BED value when posted J1IIN excise invoice from billing document

Hi Guys,
I created VA01, VL01N and VF01. Bed value is showing in VF03 but when I created J1IIN from billing document, BED value is zero. I checked several places like below
a) Logistics-General > Tax on Goods Movements > India > Account Determination > Specify Excise Accounts per Excise Transaction. Here ensure that for DLFC, necessary Account names are maintained.
b) Similarly, in the next tab, Specify G/L Accounts per Excise Transaction, ensure that for that Excise Group, relevant G/L Accounts are assigned
c) Finally, in Business Transaction tab, select Outgoing Excise Invoices where you need to ensure that you have assigned billing type to delivery type and also the default Excise Groups and Series Groups are maintained.
I couldn't figure it out where the problem is. Please help me where to check and what should be done for this?
Thanks,
Manohar.

I maintained excise defaults for TAXINN, I am maintaining A/R BED % which is coming in billing document but not in J1IIN. When I click on simulate it is giving a popup box saying 'No defaults could be proposed for Excise utilization' and click on continue then it is giving another message saying 'Excise modvat accounts not defined for GRPO transaction and E2 excise group'. Please help me what is it?
Thanks,
Manohar.

Creation of excise invoice before billing document

Hello Experts,
Our user is creating excise invoice for xyz material (own manufactured products) dispatched from the plant after creation of the commercial invoice.
Now it is required to create the excise invoice before creation of billing documents.
How this is to be done? suggestions please.
Regards,
Raj

First, U Need to Change the SPRO Setting Like Below:
In VTFL, you should maintain both copy controls for
u2022     Delivery (LF) --> Proforma (F8)
u2022     Delivery (LF) --> Commercial Inv (F2)
Once you do PGI, in VF01, you have to select manually the billing type F8 and save the proforma. Based on this proforma, when you access J1IIN, system will ask for Billing document reference where you can input proforma reference.
Creation of Proforma Invoice is required for the creation of Excise Invoice for Sale.
The transaction codes are :- VF01 :- for creation of Proforma Invoice
                                          VF02 :- for change of Proforma Invoice
                                          VF03 :- for display of Proforma Invoice
While creating Proforma Invoice the Billing Type to be changed to u201C Pro Forma Invoice for Delivery u201C as shown in the screen shot and then Delivery Number to be entered in u201CDocument u201C field . After executing and Saving the transaction Proforma Invoice will be generated.
So restriction in Authorization is required to allow only Billing Type u201C Pro Forma Invoice for Delivery u201C for those who will prepare Proforma Invoice .

Relation between Tax Invoice and Billing Document

Hi,
Could you please let me know the following;
1. How to find a Billing Document from a Tax Invoice number, i,e the table linkage. I have found out a way by passing the XBLNR (tax invoice) field in BKPF table and getting the BELNR (Accounting Document). Now, we can pass BELNR into BSEG and get the VBELN (Billing Document). Is the above the correct method ?
2. If the previous method mentioned is correct, then for Service related Invoices where there are no Sales Document or Delivery is created, we are unable to link the Tax Invoice to a Billing Document (the field VBELN in BSEG is empty).
Could you please help in this regards.
Thanks & Regards,
Sandipan

Aggregate Invoicing - Manual billing documents

Hi All,
I am working on Aggregate invoicing functionality for the distributor.
So far, I have posted the aggr bills (FICA and Billing) tables DFKKTHI / ECROSSREFNO. However this i have managed to do only for Consumption Bills (periodic/interim).
I have checked the SAP cookbook which states that the manual bills cannot be invoiced without a consumption bill which is fine.
However, I am unable to invoice the manual bill with the consumption bill as well.
The steps I followed.
1. Created a periodic bill and a manual bill (EASIBI / EA16).
2. Released the manual bill.
3. Now I try to invoice the periodic and manual bill into 1 invoice (have checked the dates). I select both the billing documents.
However 2 invoices are created. The periodic bill has an entry in DFKKTHI and the manual bill does not.
Moreover the ISU-data tab in the FICA document does not get populated. No cross-ref number is generated either.
+ Note : At this point the R403 event was made inactive +
FYI,
1. At the contract , joint invoicing = 3 [Contract must not be invoiced with other contracts]. It does not allow me to set it to 1 and 2 because of the deregulation
2. I checked the joint invoicing event R403 and setting the E_group value the same gives an error as well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards
Averil.

What is the difference between billing document and invoice??

Hello all,
I am an ABAPer but I have less business knowledge.. What types of billing docs are there? Is table VBRK used for all of them? What makes a billing doc. an invoice? What are the tables and tcodes for invoice as compared to that for billing doc?
Thanks,
Hope you answer all my questions here... I will award points.
Best regards,
Charles.

Billing document is a general term that includes - sales invoice, debit memo, credit memo and cancellation documents.
In layman's term, invoice usually refers to the sales invoice, or what you send to your customer as your company's bill or charges.
So, all billing documents are not invoices..But all invoices are billing documents
Usually, Invoice is document indicating to delivery goods and Billing is a receipt of payment
Tables are VBRK & VBRP. For flow, go to transaction VF03, enter document number and hit 'Display Document Flow' button on toolbar
VBRK and VBRP holds billing/invoice details..
Billing Document:
Generic term for invoices, credit memos, debit memos, pro forma invoices and cancellation documents.
The tables are VBRK and VBRP.
2) -- once u do PGI the delivery document will be created. There is no way to stop it.. The thing u can to do go to the list of created deliveries in VL09. Select the delivery doc which u created. There u have the option of reversing the goods or canceling it.
Billing is generic term and u can say invoice is a type of billing document.
After PGI only way left is to cancel it by Using TCODE MBST as this Tcode is used to cancel any material document.
Invoice (F2) is a type of billing document. There are many billing documents like
F1 - Order related Invoice
F2 - Delivery related Invoice
F5 - Proforma Invoice for sales order
F8 - Proforma invoice for deliveries
G2 - Credit memo
L2 - Debit memo

Billing Document not released to Accounting -Issue

Hi,
While releasing the billing document,it is not releasing to accounting and giving the below error log.
Thanks

Diagnosis
    When condition "ZSCM" (application "V") was transferred to the value field "VV139" in operating concern "AFCO" in Profitability Analysis, the following became apparent:
u2022     The condition can take both positive and negative   values
u2022     The flag "Transfer values with +/- signs" has not be set in Customizing for value field assignment.
    Inconsistencies in the data could occur as a consequence.
System Response
    It is not possible to post the document in Profitability Analysis.
Procedure
    Set the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs" for the condition "ZSCM".
    You should set the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs" selectively for individual conditions if:
1. The conditions can take both negative and positive values (for example, in the case of conditions that describe a transfer price surcharge or a loss deduction).
2. The conditions appear several times in a billing document and thus cause a debit posting as well as a
    credit posting (this is the case, for example, when creating or cancelling reserves).
By activating the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs", you balance the positive and negative values in a
condition. You can thereby guarantee that the sum of the negative and positive condition values is displayed as the correct total value in the value field assigned to the condition.
Caution when in the production system!
    If you have already used condition "ZSCM" to post data in the production system, then the sign in
    Profitability Analysis may differ from the previous sign as a result of the flag "Transfer values with +/-
    signs" having been activated. See the F1 Help documentation on the field "Transfer values with +/-
    signs" or the OSS note 52849. If deviating signs occur, it makes sense to move condition "ZSCM" to a new value field! Contact your system adviser or SAP.
    The +/- signs are handled as follows for the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs":
    Billing document (normal) "trans.with signs" "trans.w/o signs"
     Debit posting                   negative     positive       (such as sales deductions)
     Credit posting                  positive      positive       (such as revenues)
    Credit memos/returns    "trans.with signs" "trans.w/o signs"
     Debit posting                   negative     negative       (such as revenues)
     Credit posting                  positive       negative       (such as sales deductions)
    Maintain Condition Assignment to Value Fields u2013 SD Condition
    Maintain Condition Assignment to Value Fields u2013 MM condition
Procedure for System Administration

One Tcode for excise invoice and Billing and Accounting doc no.

Hi Sap,
Is there any Tcode or Table to see the Sales Accounting Entries with the help of Excise Invoice number and Billing Document Number?
I mean I want a Tcode or table to see all Excise Invoice number , Billing document Nuber as well Accounting document number in one screen.
If any Tcode is there could you reply me,
Regards,

In VFX3 check if you have correctly filled up the selection screen.
Especially "Created By" fields which gets the default value of user who is running the t-code. If you have not created the billing doc then keep the field empty.
Also check in VF02 or VF03 if the billing doc exists.
Either thru VF02 or VFX3 you can release the billing doc to accounting.
There can be several reason for failure to post billing doc to accounting.
For ex,
1. FI posting period for the billing date is not open.
2. Some of the GL where posting should go are locked.
3. Account Assignment Group for the material is not maintained in material master.

Invoice and Billing

Can any please tell the exact difference between Invoice and Billing
Thanks

There is no difference between Billing & invoice much.
Billing Types that represent the different business transactions in billing. SAP has defined various Billing Types e.g. order related billing, delivery related billing, Credit Memo, Debit Memo, Proforma Invoice, Invoice for services rendered, invoice list.
All billing documents are not invoices but invoice is billing document.
Billing document is general term whilst iinvoice refers to specific transaction like credit memo or proforma invoice.
Billing & invoice can be unpaid or paid. e.g. Advance payment billing where you raise invoice for advance payment.
Invoice List contains any tuype of bills together. Its not a single invoice but grouped invoices, credit memo debit memo etc. In SAP you assign Billing Type to Invoice List to group together. e.g. F1 + F2 + G2 +L2= LR
Please be sur ethat you are not confused when asked in interview. Invoice is for both : Vendor Invoice and Customer Invoice.
Both are same in SD point of view.
- In SD terminology we call as Billing Document and
- In FI terminology we call as INVOICE.
- In MM again only INVOICE will be there for Vendors.
Billing Tcodes:
- VF01 create billing document. The delivery order comes up auto.
- VF02 the billing doc comes up auto . View the accounting enteries
Invoice Tcodes:
- FB60 Create invoice with respect to rawmaterial and tax.
- FB70 Invoice entries with respect to sales and tax
Billing = Accounts Payable = Goods/Services Received from Suppliers.
Invoicing = Accounts Receivable = Goods/Services Delivered to Customers.
