Maximum number of Invoices for a Sales order

Dear All,
How many invoices we can make for a Sales order?
Is there any maximum limit for that?
How many documents can be shown in Document flow?
Please let me know.
Regards,
Mullairaja

hi mullairaja
if in the case for partial deliveries you could process any number of invoices but only till the number of partial deliveries in the customer master data > sales area > shipping > partial deliery per item .....
if the case of the sales order is processed and delivery and COMPLETE picking ...and PGI with respect to that delivery document you could only process one invoice ......
IF you complete the whole sales cycle ...you can see the whole document flow in va02 by clicking document flow in the left top corner.
the document flow will be more if their are many partial deliveries.

Single invoice for multiple sales orders

Hi all,
When delivery order is created based on Collective processing, Billing document is created based on delivery order for delivery based billing.
But, is it possible to filter the line items in the Collective delivery order further for billing? Based on customer PO number, etc.
That is, one Invoice for each Sales order or each customer PO number from the delivery document.
Billing based on Sales order is one solution, which is not possible in the current Bussiness scenario.
Could anyone suggest some other solution?
Regards,
Jennifer Smily.

Hello Jennifer,
if I understood well you have: more sales orders (everyone wiht its PO number), delivered togheter within one delivery.
Then you bill the delivery, and you need to create one billing document for every sales order.
Is it right my understanding ?
If so you could simply customize the copy control (transaction VTFL) at header level setting field 'Assignment Number' and/or field 'Reference number' with 'A' or 'B'.
In this way field VBRK-ZUONR and/or VBRK-XBLNR of billing document is filled with PO number or sales order number, and one billing document for every sales order will be created.
Best regards,
Ivano.

Two invoices for one sales order

I want to create two invoices for one sales order
Scenario is like to create sales order for value of 100 $, and I want to send order reference billing after saving the sales order for 10% of order amount
I would say 10% of 100 $
And after delivery I want to issue a invoice for 90 %( rest of the amount) which is delivery relevant invoice.
Both invoices will be relevant of accounting.
Would any body suggest this, how it would be mapped it in to SAP.

Hi Suresh,
It is possible in Partial billing. Maintain the Billing plan and create a plan with the inputs as u specified.
Go to IMG-SD-Billing-Billing plan. Do ur own configuration for Billing plan.
Now in Sales document creation mode....header details-Billing plan, U block the billing schedules and as per ur requirement , remove the billing block and create billing document.
If u configured Account detrmination procedure, U wld get the accounting document wrt billing document.
Hope this wld help U.

Maximum number of line items in sales order

hi,
Is there a limit on the maximum number of line items that are permitted in a sales order?
Thanks,
Shailaja

Hi
I think the correct reply would be 999,999 because data type of item number POSNR is NUM 6, which means that it can hold upto value 999,999.
However, at the same time keep the following into consideration:
1. FI document has a restriction of 999 line items per document. So, depending on the account settings, there will be a lower limit. E.g. if each Sales order line item results in 2 line items in the accounting document, then the max. no. of SO line items is limited to 499.
2. If FI summarization is active, then the system summarizes the account postings, thus reducing the no. of FI line items. Hence, a SO can accomodate more than 999 line items. However, this means that certain line item level details will not be available to the Finance guys (which they may not like).
3. As the number of line items in a Sales order increases, the system performance suffers greatly. There are performance fixes available, but in general, it is painful to load a SO with large no. of line times through BDC's. 10 Sales orders with 100 lines each consume less system resources than 1 Sales order with 1000 lines.

How to generate one invoice for a sales order with product returns

Hi All,
I have a sales order that has been delivered and goods issue posted. Now the customer returns some of the product and I generated a Return using VA01 - document type RE, generated a returns delivery and posted a goods return.
I need to generate an invoice that will only consider the quantities that were not returned.
I have checked the sales process pertaining to returns, but all I have found consider generating a Credit Memo.
Is there a way to generate an invoice that will only invoice the quantities that were not returned? Say I sold 10 pcs, and 2 were returned, so I want to invoice 8.
Many thanks in advance.
Oscar

Hi Sandeep, Jyotsana, Goutham. Thank you all for your time and your replies.
What is happenning here is that there is a vendor-client relationship where there is a constant flow of purchase orders, and the orders are large.
I understand that it is standard SAP procedure, but in this case, it is not the most efficient. I have two alternatives the way I see it:
1. Post the invoices according to SAP Standard, and then the Credit Memo.
2. Reverse the Purchase Order.
There are disadvantages with both alternatives:
1. I get much more paperwork than I really need.
2. When I get the returns, the delivery, picking and goods issue have been posted, and I would have to reverse all that. Not a very good Idea I think, especially if I have a purchase order with 150 different materials and I get a return of 2 items of one material.
Again, thanks for your replies. From what you have told me I am thinking that what I'll need is to implement a User Exit or Badi.
Best Regards,
Oscar

We create proforma invoice for a sales order.If the object status for the sales order is changed we have to add an output type that is record should be added to NAST table.User exit/Function Module/program .

Please provide me with a solution

Q1. will it charge material price to work order automatically ?
No you have to go with user exit for this
Q2. Unless the business is so specific such that they would like to treat this activity via sales, there is no significance in capturing the activity via SD. Perhaps, I would say, MM route is more appropriate.
Q3. The above holds good. That you go with MM route.

More than 3 AR for one Sales Order in relationship map

Hello,
i would need some advice on the following: If you have more than 3 Invoice for one Sales order these are not shown seperately in the relationship map. SAP could reproduce the issue and refers to it as normal system procedure at the moment. They adviced me to post a thread here.Is there any way you could make the invoices be seen one by one.
SAP Version 8.81 PL 5
Thanks a lot for any advices on this topic
Vanessa
Edited by: Vanessa Schürer on Jan 16, 2012 2:45 PM

Welcome to the forum.
If you have any suggestions you post them on sap's new idea collaboration page. You do bring up a good point and hopefully in 8.82 it will be resolved as the relationship map was not originally on the road map. Hopefully they can develop this feature.

Billing document for multiple sales orders

Hi All,
I am in to ECC 6.0. How can i get single billing document for multiple sales orders?
Can anyone tell me those configuration settings?
Thanks
Patel J

Dear Jaganath,
For Single Invoice, for multiple Sales Order, following details must be same:
1. Sales Document Type for all Sales Order must be same
2. Payer
3. Incoterms
4.Payment Term
5. Account Assignment Grp - Customer
6. Billing Date
7. Exchange Rate
8. Foreign Trade Data
Now, in Copy-Control Settings between Sales Order and Billing (T. Code: VTFA - Order to bill copying control), Select your combination for Sales Order-->Invoice;
and Double Click: Item (from Left-Hand side, Dialog Structure) and Double Click on to your Item Category.
Here, in Filed: VBRK/VBRP, maintain Routine: 003 - Single Invoice.
Important: Also, if Sales Orders have different Divisions,
T. Code: VOV8 - Sales Document Type Maintenance
untick the Box: Item Division.
T. Code: VOR2 - Common Division
Assign those Divisions to Common Divisions.
Best Regards,
Amit

How to Find Out The Production Order Number For The Sales Order Line Items

Hi All,
I want to know the number of production orders for each sales order line item. I know the sales order number .Can anyone tell me how the tables can be linked to get all the production order numbers for each sales order line item.

I think it depends on your configuration. But check fields KDAUF and KDPOS in table AUFK. or in table AFPO.

Return a number for every sales order

Hai All,
I have a sales order coming into a cube. Our model is in such a way that if we look at the records in the cube, there are more than one record for a sales order. I have to report on number of sales orders based on period.
I want to create a key figure to return "1" for every sales order and "0" for the repeated sales order numbers. so that in the report if I am asked how many sales orders are created in a period, I can just sumup the 1s.
I would appreciate if any one could suggest a way for me. Can non-cumulative key figures help me?
Thanks.

Hi,
to my knowledge, it's not possible with Bex reporting.
1. we have DS 2LIS_11_VAHDR DS, if you are extracting this data you can extract to some ODS. which will give Sales Order Header details.
2. as i said through VBA coading, you can achive this.
3. by implementing one more key figure(to calculate the number of Sales Orders) in the cube, we can achive this.
all the best.

Nagesh Ganisetti.

How to get the delivery number for the sales order

hi
how to get the delivery number for the sales order

Hi,
1. IN VA03, enter the sales order and click on the document flow button. From there you can check the delivery document.
2. In SE11, enter VBFA(Document flow) table and enter the sales order in VBELV field and in VBTYP_N field enter 'J' to specify that you want to check if there is already a delivery document for that sales order.
Hope it helps...
P.S. Please award points if it helps...

Single idoc generation for multiple sales orders

Hi,
Pls let me know how do we generate single idoc for multiple sales orders.
Its not collecting idoc. As we know we can generate an idoc for one sales order correspondingly
my requirement is to generate single idoc number for multiple sales orders.
Do we need to write a program.

Amar,
To understand take HRMD_A04 as example. Root segment has Maximum 9999999999 defined.
Segm.type E1PLOGI
Minimum number 1
Maximum number 9999999999
Parent segment
Hier.level 2
This means that this IDOC types has capability to hold multiple HR Master data objects. PFAL program creates this IDOC and it has facility to mention the Objects per process, check selection screen.
I checked for INVOICE01/02 its not possible there. Hope this clarifies.
