Mile stone billing with Down payment clearing
Hi,
Urgent help needed.
I need to set up mile stone billing plan at item level with down payment getting automatically offset with Invoice
ie,
I have 10% down payment (FAZ).
And mile stone invoicing of 40% and 60% each.
I have raised down payment request and the incoming payment is posted.
Now, when I raise the invoices, I want the down payment received auotomatically deducted from the invoice amount and shown as separate line item in the invoice. What settings need to be done?
ie, if 10000 EUR is the total amount, down payment is 1000 EUR.
My first invoice should show 4000 - 400 = 3600 EUR due from the cutomer and second invoice shud have 6000-600=5400 EUR due.
The item category is ZTAO
I have maintained the following settings:
1. Condition type AZWR in the pricing procedure with requirement as 2 (item with pricing) and the calculation formula 48
2. Copy control set up for Order type TA with billing type FAZ for the item category ZTAO with Copying requirement 20
3. Copy control set up for Order type TA with billing type F2 for the item category ZTAO with Copying requirement 23
But the invoice is not showing the down payment amount. Can any one tell me what is that I am missing? This is in ECC6.0
Thank You,
Resmi.Yes, Shripad thats the problem I faced too.. unfortunately didnt get any solution so far.. and I had been focussing on some other area off late..
Any one who come across a solution, pls mail us!!

Billing Plan for Milestone Billing
Milestone billing means distributing the total amount to be billed over multiple billing
dates in the billing plan.
As each milestone is successfully reached, the customer is billed either a percentage of
the entire project cost or simply a pre-defined amount.
During sales order processing, the system determines from the item category whether a
billing plan is required and, if so, which type of plan
The type of billing plan that is determined at this point is set up in Customizing and
cannot be changed in the sales document.
Billing plans for periodic billing and milestone billing plans for project-related milestone
billing have different overview screens so that you can enter data relevant to your
processing.
For example, for milestone billing, you must be able to enter data to identify the
individual milestones.
IMG configuration requires :-
1. Maintain billing plan types for milestone billing in OVBO.
2. Define date description in SM30 - V_TVTB.
3. Maintain Date Category for Billing Plan Type IN OVBJ.
4. Allocate date category in SM30 - V_TFPLA_TY.
5. Maintain date proposal for Billing Plan Type in OVBM.
6. Assign Billing Plan Type to Sales Documents Type in OVBP.
7. Assign Billing Plan Type to Item Categories in OVBR.
8. Define rules for determining the date in OVBS.
Milestone billing is typically used for billing projects, such as plant engineering and
construction projects. Such projects often include a series of milestones that mark the
completion of different stages of the work. In the SAP R/3 System, milestones are defined
in a network along with planned and actual dates for the completion of work. The milestones
are also assigned to the billing dates in the billing plan.
Each milestone-related billing date is blocked for processing until the Project System
confirms that the milestone is completed.
Delivery-relevant order items for which a milestone billing plan applies are billed on the
basis of the requested delivery quantity and not on the total of the confirmed quantities.
The connection between the project and the sales document item is made in the individual
schedule lines of the item. Each schedule item can be assigned to a network in a project.
To display the project-related data for a schedule line, proceed as follows:
In one of the overview screens of the sales document, select
1. Item -> Schedule lines.
2. Mark the schedule line and select Procurement details.
The following figure shows an example of milestone billing where only the Contract have
been billed :
Order Item Turbine 100,000
Billing Plan
Billing date Description % Value Billing Block Milestone Billing Status
01-10-94 Contract 10 10,000 - x x
01-03-95 Assembly 30 30,000 x x
01-04-95 Maintenance 30 30,000 x x
01-05-95 Acceptance 30 30,000 x x
01-06-95 Final invoice .. .. x
Network/Activities
Milestone Estimate Actual
Assembly 01-03-95 01-03-95
Maintenance 01-04-95
Acceptance 01-05-95
For each billing date in a milestone billing plan, you can specify whether the billing
date is:
1. fixed
2. always updated with the actual date of the milestone
3. updated with the actual date of the milestone, if the date is earlier than the
planned billing date for the date
Keep Sapping

will get generate.
In this case of milestone How to take care of Excise dutie & How to create Excise invoice in J1IIN.
Pls give your expert experience .
Regards,
AkshayDear Friend,
When you are doing a Milestone billing, I hope you will be creating multiple deliveries and multiple billings, And i think each billing will have a different excise duties charged. so you are suppose to create multiple excise invoice according to your invoices.

SriramHi Srinath,
All Billing Dates are same.But System Taking Diff Line items in the billing.
I am not useing any of the following :
payment terms
--> Foreign trade data
--> Payee Inco terms
--> Payer
System Where it control for diff lie items.
Thanks
Sriram
Hi sriram
As each line item is having 7milestones then make sure that the billing date should be same.You might have maintained separated billing dates for three billing items that is the reason it is showing 3 items dates
Because of the following parameters billing split will take place
--> Check the Billing date
--> payment terms
--> Foreign trade data
--> Payee Inco terms
--> Payer

Hi all,
I have a scenario of project sales. The billing will be order based - 50% after order confirmation, 40% after delivery & 10% after installation & testing.
I am using milestone billing plan for my project sales. I am not using the project system. I have created the billing plan in the following way:
1. Define billing plan types. I have copied from standard billing plan 01 & saved as Z type.
2. Define date descriptions. I have created 3 different date descriptions - a) Order confirmed, b) Delivery done, c) Installation & testing done.
3. Define & assign date categories. I created 3 different entries. First for the down payment at the time of order confirmation........i used the date description as down payment. The billing rule selected was "Down payment in milestone billing on percentage basis". The fixed date selected was "Fixed date, date not copied from milestone". The billing block selected was "calculation missing". The billing type selected was "FAZ".
For the second part (40% after delivery) I used the date description as delivery done. The billing rule selected was "Milestone billing on a percentage basis". The fixed date selected was "Fixed date, date not copied from milestone". The billing block selected was "calculation missing". The billing type selected was "FV".
For the third part (10% after installation) I used the date description as installation done. The billing rule selected was "Closing invoice in milestone billing". The fixed date selected was "Fixed date, date not copied from milestone". The billing block selected was "calculation missing". The billing type selected was "FV".
4. Maintain date proposals. I maintain 3 different dates with an interval of 5 days. For first step i selected the date description as "order confirmation"......billing % as 50%........selected the block......billing relevance as down payment on % basis.........payment term..........billing type as FAZ.
For second step i sselected the date description as "delivery done".......billing % as 40%........selected the block........billing relevance as "Milestone billing on a percentage basis".......payment term........billing type as FV.
For third step i selected the date description as "installation done"......billing % as 10%.......selected the block..........billing relevance as "Closing invoice in milestone billing".......payment term......billing type as FV.
5. Assign billing plan types to sales document types....I assigned the billing plan to the sales doucment for project sales.
6. Assign billing plan types to item categories.....I assigned the billing plan to the item category of the project item....with billing relevance as "I-Order-relevant billing - billing plan".....billing plan as the milestone billing plan.
Copy controls: I maintained the copy control settings in VTFA.......sales order to billing document type FAZ & FV as well. In the transaction code VOV8 for the sales order document type I maintained the order related billing type as FV.
Now I created a project sales order.......the system displayed the billing plan tab......the milestones were shown but the data regarding the billing percentage.......payment terms.........billing relevance.....was not shown. I entered all the details......with the document types as
FAZ
FV
FV.
I removed the block from the first milestone......down payment.
Now i created an invoice in VF01......selected the order number for reference......the system created 2 invoices.......1 for the down payment request & the other contract invoice. The down payment request had the correct amount but the contract invoice did not display any value.......
How should i correct the settings so the system will only create the relevant invoice......
With best regards,
Niyaz.Hi,
You have done a good job.
Enter different dates in sales order for each Milestone and assign billing block save the sales order.
Goto change sales order, remove the block for one billing date.
In billing screen, enter sales order no. don't press enter
Click on Selection date (Shift+F7) enter the date range and press enter. you will get only first billing that is 50%.
Actually we are using PS, milestones and billing dates will be copied from there.

Mile stone billing with partial quantity.
Hi,
We are facing problem in the milestone billing. we have scenario where we have payment terms (Ex: 10% advance, 70% on delivery, 10% on installation and remaining 10% on completion) with the materials having multiple quantity. Delivery will be in partial, so except the advance invoice all the remaining invoice require change in the billing quantity before billing, but in the system billing quantity showing in gray mode. After delivery also remaining (10% installation) also will be on different quantity i.e. actually installed at the site.
As per the law invoicing has to be done with in the 14 days of the installation of the work, once the installation over for partial quantity we required to do the invoice irrespective of the delivered quantity.
In the system if we do the invoice for the total quantity at the time advance after that we are unable to change the invoice quantity in the subsequent invoices.
Please suggest us how to make enable the billing quantity field in case of milestone billing.
Ex: let us say sales order is created for qty 10 with the value of 1,00,000.00 as payment terms as follows.
10% Advance, 70% on delivery, 10% on installation, 10% final completion.
First we have raised the 10% advance invoice using 1st milestone with the total quantity.
When we deliver, we deliver only partial quantity i.e. qty. 5, so we have to create the invoice for (50,000-5,000) Rs 45,000. But when we create the second invoice we are unable to change the billing quantity. Same way when we create the third invoice after installation we may have to bill for qty. 3 if only 3 machines are installed out of 5 delivered, so again we require the quantity change.

Upendra

MILESTONE BILLING- Mile stone assigned to multiple sales orders
Hi,
My user has sales order in which he has used Mile stone billing
The Billing is being done in two shots - 60% once and the second time 40%
60% has already been invoiced and the 40% is creating a problem and they want the sales order to be closed
In one of the custom reports- it says that the 40% (mile stone number) is assigned to multiple sales orders and so the sales order cannot be confirmed
I am totally new to SD and so request to kindly explain high level concept and also provide the solution
Thanks,
SSHi,
Is your line item in sales order assigned to wbs elements?
If it yes?
check milestones may also comes from it- check with PS consultant-
you can also check milestome number and billing plan number- if you display milestone
Use CN41 transaction to check sales orders assigned to WBS element
uou can refer Table: FPLT
ICN53n-report
Thanks

Billing plan appears suddenly in ond of the orders
Dear All,
i have a situation where mile stone billing is suddenly appearing in one of the sales orders, where as if i check before or after orders none of them have on the same day or before or after. since we are using billing plans for other countries and same document types are used for all the countries. but for this country no billing plan is determined, but yesterday it appears in one of the orders.
could you please suggest how shall i start the investigation.Dear king fire ,
As lakshmipathi has already pointed out, billing plan is triggered by the plan assignment either in the header level (vov8)
or if the plan is assigned to the item level.
Check the confinguration changes/ change requests made during the time of this order creation.
I do not think user will be able to trigger a billing plan directly in the sales order.
Thanks & Regards,
Hegal K Charles
