Hi All,
We are with SRM 4.0 & ECS. Is there anyway to implement Invoicing Plan in SRM 4.0 with Extended Classic.
Thanks,

Disputed Invoice in SAP SRM

Hi Experts,
I would be very interested to know the way disputed invoices are handled in SRM.
To explain the scenario in bit more detail :
If a user has an ongoing PO and he receives 2 invoices(same quantity and value ) against that PO, user has not done the confirmation yet so invoice is waiting for the preceding document. Now user notices that the first invoice has some error and wants to dispute it but wants to pay the second invoice but if user creates the confirmation, according to the SRM invoice processing algorithm first invoice will go through for payment as it will fulfil the 3-way match but that invoice shouldn't go for payment.
So I just wanted to know from the community that how disputes are handled in SRM in general and what is the process around this. Also, i would like to know your thoughts regarding prioritizing the invoice against which we are confirming.
Regards,

Hi. Bit of a late one this, only just found it out, but there is a bolt on to SRM called "Procurement for public sector" (PPS) and apparently that allows invoice plans in SRM.
I think the bolt on is all designed around extended classic on SRM 7, possibly 5, so that might be the answer.
You do not have to be in the public sector to use the bolt on, but there might be license implications.

Dave.

Invoice Plan with ECS

Hi,
Has anyone got a possible solution to using invoice plans with ECS? I am aware that this is not standard functionality - but there may be an add-on in public sector procurement?
Many thanks

Hi,
I noticed your message regarding invoicing plans in SRM 7.0. Did you happen to find a solution for this? We are having the exact same issue. Is there a custom solution for adding an invoicing plan to SRM 7.0?

Invoicing Plan functionality in Extended Classic scenario

Hi,
For PO's are created in SRM-Extended Classic scenario, kindly let me know on how to maitain Invoicing plans.
Thanks,

Hi. You could use ERS.
Let's say you wanted an invoice plan to pay every month for 12 months, you could create a cart on an ERS vendor and order quantity 12, unit months.
Then every month the user could do a goods receipt for 1 month.
That would trigger an ERS invoice, just like an invoice plan would.
The only problem with this is that you are relying on the user to do the goods receipt.

Dave.

Extended Classic and Invoicing Plans

Hi All,
We want to use the extended classic scenario for SRM but need to use invoice plan functionality in ECC to make scheduled payments.
Does anyone have an idea has to how we can accomadte this?
I've thought of adding a custom field which can indicate an invoice plan is needed and then changing the scenario to classic for that particular order but the user would then require access to ECC to amend the PO.
Is there anyway of adding the invoice plan data in SRM and then passing it to ECC?
Cheers
Chris

Hi. Do you want to use periodic or partial invoice plans?
If it was periodic you could put custom fields in the cart for start and end date and period type (monthly, weekly etc) and hide them when appropriate using the BBP_UI_CONTROL_BADI.
Then you could use a BADI or user exit in ECC / R/3 on PO create to read the fields from SRM and poulate automatically.
Instead of a new field to indicate that it is an invoice plan why not configure a new account assignment category in SRM to indicate that it needs an invoice plan? Just copy what you use now but call it "Invoice plan". Probably a bit easier than a custom field for this, especially if you are using custom fields for the actual invoice plan info. A custom field would work fins too though.
If you want to use partial invoice plans you would probably have to write a whole new transaction in SRM to allow you to pick up a list of POs from the backend and then have a new screen where you specify the partial dates and values.
When you save in the nwe transaction it could call a function in R/3 that populates the partial dates.

Dave.

Purchase Order with Invoice Plan

Hi,
I need to understand working with Invoicing plans for a Purchase Order. Especially the service PO for the rents and other related services.
How the PO is linked to the Invoice Plan and how the process happens in SAP?
Thanks in advance!

Creating an Invoicing Plan
The following procedure describes how to create an invoicing plan with the pre-Enjoy ordering transactions (ME21, ME22, ME23).
The procedure described is also applicable u2013 with certain restrictions u2013 to the Enjoy purchase order (ME21N, ME22N, ME23N).
If you are using the Enjoy purchase order, you will find:
·         The Invoicing Plan button and the indicators for GR-based invoice verification (GR-Based IV), service-based invoice verification (Srv.-Based IV), evaluated receipt settlement (ERS), and invoice receipt (Inv. Receipt) among the item details on the Invoice tab page.
·         The account assignment among the item details on the Account Assignment tab page
·         The Goods Receipt and GR Non-Valuatedindicators among the item details on the Delivery tab page
Prerequisites
Vendor Master Record
Before you can use the invoicing plan with automatic settlement, the Evaluated Receipt Settlement Delivery indicator must be set on the Purchasing Data screen in the vendor master record.
(If you wish to enter invoicing dates manually, this is not necessary.)
Purchase Order
●     We recommend using a framework order (that is a purchase order with a validity period and a reason for rejection). The invoicing plan can adopt the validity period specified in the PO header.
●     PO items for which you wish to use an invoicing plan must have account assignment irrespective of whether a material with a master record, a material described by a short text, or an external service is involved.
●     The GR/IR control facility must be set up in such a way that no goods receipt (or, in the case of services, no service entry) is expected - only an incoming invoice. If you wish to have automatic settlement, you must also set the Evaluated Receipt Settlement indicator.
If you nevertheless wish to allow service entry sheets for the item (e.g. for information purposes only), you must set the GR Non-Val. indicator.
Customizing
Under Purchase Order à Invoicing Plan in Customizing for Purchasing, you can maintain data such as the desired invoicing plan types, date categories, and date descriptions.
Procedure
       1.      Create a purchase order with account assignment (framework order).
Click to access the item overview (or the overview of service lines if you chose item category D for services).
       2.      Enter the desired material or service, the quantity, and the price.
       3.      Select the desired item and click Account Assignments to access the account assignment screen. Enter the account assignment for this item.
       4.      Click to access the item detail screen. Check that the GR/IR control indicators are set correctly on the item detail screen.
○     The GR and GR-Based Invoice Verification or Service-Based Invoice Verification indicators must not be set.
○     IR must be set.
○     You must set ERS if you wish to have Evaluated Receipt Settlement.
○     If you wish to have service entry sheets purely for information, for example, allow non-valuated goods receipt (i.e. select the GR Non-Val and GR indicators).
       5.      Choose Item ® Invoicing Plan. A window appears, in which the invoicing plan types predefined in Customizing are suggested. Choose the desired invoicing plan type and click Continue.
You can use the following invoicing plan types:
○     Periodic Invoicing Plan
■      You use the periodic invoicing plan if the total value of the PO item is to be invoiced in each period.
■      The system creates the invoicing dates automatically on the basis of the settings in Customizing.
■      The invoicing date and the amount to be invoiced are shown for each settlement period (e.g. month). In the case of the periodic invoicing plan, the amount represents the total value of the PO item.
■      You can change the suggested dates and block individual dates for automatic invoicing if necessary.
■      You can enter the start and end dates for the invoicing plan.
■      With the Dates from and Dates to fields, you can determine that an invoicing plan does not contain invoicing dates extending over the entire validity period of the purchase order but only for a certain period within that validity period. (E.g. within a validity period from 1.1. to 12.31, only dates within the period 1.1. to 06.30.)
■      With the Horizon field, you control how far into the future dates can be created. If you enter a date rule that adds six months to the current date here, invoicing dates will be created for just half a year in advance in each case.
The system automatically creates new dates if you change the invoicing plan or when you invoke the transaction for Updating Periodic Invoicing Plans. See Generating Further Invoicing Plan Dates
■      The In Advance indicator allows you to specify whether the invoice is to be created with regard to a prior or subsequent period. (E.g. at the beginning of February, either in advance for the month of February or in arrears for the month of January).
■      In addition, fields with information on the existing invoicing plan are displayed (e.g. the calendar upon which the date determination process is based).
○     Partial Invoicing Plan
■      You use the partial invoicing plan if the total value of the PO item is to be invoiced in several partial amounts.
■      You get an empty date overview in which you can manually enter the desired dates.
■      If you work with a reference invoicing plan, the system automatically generates dates in accordance with the reference plan.
You have the following options:
●      You create a reference invoicing plan in Customizing for the invoicing plan type.
●      You enter an existing invoicing plan as reference plan directly in the invoicing plan for the PO item.
■      You can flag a date in field B (Billing/Invoicing Rule) as follows:
●      As a down payment (percentage or value)
●      As an invoicing date (percentage or value)
●      As a final invoice
       6.      Click to return to the item overview.
       7.      Click to save the purchase order item with the invoicing plan.
You can then start the automatic invoice creation process during invoice verification.
For more information, refer to the section Settlement of Amounts Due Under Invoicing Plans.
Once assigned to an item, the invoicing plan type (e.g. partial invoicing plan) cannot be changed. If you wish to assign a different invoicing plan type, you must delete the item and create a new one.
Generating Further Invoicing Plan Dates
If you have assigned a periodic invoicing plan to a PO item but have not initially defined invoicing dates covering the entire validity period of the purchase order, you can generate further dates in due course.
You have created a PO item with a periodic invoicing plan for a certain planned procurement. The purchase order is valid from 1.1. to 12.31. When creating the invoicing plan, you specified one invoicing date per month for the first half of the year. You have not yet planned any dates for the second half of the year because you do not wish information from the invoicing plan to be passed on to purchase order commitments at this stage, for example.
By mid-June, it is clear that the PO is to proceed as envisaged, and you therefore wish to schedule invoicing dates for the remainder of its validity period.
Procedure
To schedule further invoicing dates, proceed as follows:
Choose Purchase order ® Follow-on functions ® Period. invoicing plan
Specify the purchase orders for which invoicing dates are to be generated in the invoicing plan and perform the function.
A log can be created if desired.
Result
The system adds further dates on the basis of information such as the validity period or horizon from Customizing, the purchase order, and the invoicing plan.

Creation of invoicing plan while creating the PO using BAPI_PO_CREATE1

Hi, basically I'm creating a PO using BAPI_PO_CREATE1 and then creating Invoicing plan thru ME22 using BDC.
Could anyone please help me if there is any possibility of creation of invoicing plan while creating the PO itself using BAPI_PO_CREATE1.
thanks in advance.

Hi,
Have you tried filling up the invoicing plan related tables of the bapi ?
*"      INVPLANHEADER STRUCTURE BAPI_INVOICE_PLAN_HEADER OPTIONAL

Invoicing Plan Net Value not equals to Ordered Value

Dear Xperts,
Need your advice.
Is it SAP standards, when an invoicing plan BPO is created with reference to an outline agreement the net value at the outline agreement (header statistic) is taken from the BPO net value (Quantity X Price) NOT BPO ordered value (Quantity X Price X Months).
Scenario Simulated:
(1)     Contract Detail (value contract)
Target Value = RM12,000 (price RM1000 ; 12 months validity)
(2)     Purchase Order
Quantity = 1 pcs ; Price = RM1000 ; Invoicing Plan = 12 months
Ordered Value = RM 12,000
Net Value = RM1000
As a result the utilization value (contract header statistic) is:
Target Value : RM12,000
Net Value : RM1000.
This will lead to a misleading info of utilization value of the contract.
Your experts explaination is highly appreciated.

Anybody?

Auto release of Invoicing plan item when milestone actual date is entered

Hi all,
I wonder if anyone can help me on this. I have configured the system to automatically release an invoicing plan in a PO once the milestone attached to that invoicing plan is confirmed in the project by entering the actual date. For some reason though, when trying to enter the invoice for this item in MIRO, the amount from the invoicing plan is not copied. The amount only gets copied if you enter the PO in change mode after confirmation of milestone, display the invoice plan for each item then save before exitting. It is only after this that the block on the item is removed. Is this supposed to be so? I would have thought immediately after confirmation of milestone by indication of actual date, the block on the invoicing plan will be immediately be removed so the invoice can immediately copy the amounts from the PO? Any ideas how to achieve this? (GR is not a part of the process).

Release Strategy Problem with Invoicing Plan

Hi ,
I am using Invoicing Plan for my framework orders at client side.But the release is getting activated at line item level and not at the total invoice level while i am creating a PO.
Eg. If the PO total value is 1000 Rs and the individal line item is 500 Rs then release is getting activated at 500 Rs and Not at 1000 Rs where as i want the release to be get activated at 1000 Rs.That is the total of all line items in PO.

2lis_02_itm NETWR in case of PO with Invoicing Plan

Hello all,
The 2lis_02_itm documentation says that the field NETWR (Net PO value) is picked up directly from table field EKPO-NETWR.
However I observed a different behaviour in case of POs with an Invoicing Plan ( mostly framework POs)
E.g If a PO item has qty 10 and Price 5 , then the field ekpo-netwr is 50 ( = 10 * 5)
Now if this PO item has 3 invoices done according to the invoicing plan , then the 2lis_02_itm-netwr is 150 rather than 50
I just want to have your opinion - whether this is correct Net Po Value from BW analysis perspective or not? Is this the right behaviuor of the extractor?
Regards
Sanjyot

F1 on NETWR
Net order value in PO currency
Value of the purchase order (including discounts and surcharges)
Order value = order quantity X order price.
so its correct hopefully.
