Milestone billing revenue not reflecting in Actuals of S_ALR_87013531

Hi,
Requirement is to create a milestone billing in SD against the PS milestones. I have created order type billing for this scenario. I am able to create billing document however i am not able to see the revenues in s_alr_87013531.
Please suggest.
Regards
Joe

after assigning WBSE in Sale order
you need to copy billing plan from WBSE
in that you are mentioning same WBSE then you will get all the milestones maintainted for respective WBSE -you need to copy that.
then whatever % mentioned in the Milestones - system considers that & you will get respective milestone billing.
I hope this will help you to understand
you need to maintain respective requirement type & requirement class i,e KP ...... just discuss with SD Consultant.

My bill does not reflect the conversation I had with two representatives.

When I phoned to suspend service because I would be out of the country until the end of September, I asked two representatives on the two occasions I phoned to calculate what my charges would be for May. I was given a rough figure of $60 with the understanding that because Verizon bills are paid in advance, I would be only charged for a prorated amount for the days following my billing cycle renewal (the 29th) and the date suspension was to commence (5/1) plus $45 for the three lines being suspended. Instead, my bill reflects full charges adding up to $143+ as if I were using the service for the projected month (4/29-5/28). Can you explain? Please review those recorded phone conversations with your representatives for clarity.
Joanne
I cannot at this point phone as I've not yet sorted out phone service while in the UK. Thank you.

As it seemed to take a long time for an email reply to my inquiry, I phoned
Verizon and worked out that it was case #2, that the bill had been generated
before the suspension. I've opted to pay it in full and leave a credit on
my account as of June when the adjustments are made.
BUT I have one more question: when I spoke with the representative to get
the above clarification, she mentioned that I would need to contact Verizon
on or before 29 July to generate another suspension until my return to the
USA on 29 September. But as I recall from my conversation with the agent to
set up the suspension, a note was made in my file that this suspension order
was to automatically renew saving me the need for a call or internet action
on my part. Can you look into that please as I will be traveling likely
without my computer or phone between 25 July and mid-first week of August to
Finland and it will be awkward to renew the suspension order that way. If
I've misunderstood and do, in fact, need to contact Verizon at the end of
July, might the order for renewal of the suspension be earlier than the
29th; say on the 24th or 25th?
Thank you,
Joanne (gunniejo)
please reply to my yahoo account (removed) as I almost never
use the google email account.

IMS 5.1 attachment sizes not reflective of actual attachment size

It appears that attachments that are recieved are larger than actual file size. If a 8 MB file is sent to a user, the webmail interface shows the actual size to be 11 MB. This is a problem for our users that have a qouta set at 20 MB. We need to have a more accurate mail storage
count. How would we go about solving this issue. Is this a storage drive issue?? If so, how so??

We had the same problem with iMS version 5.1 What version are you running?
We reported it to iPlanet supported who initially said that this is because all attachments are mime encoded.
After complaining to our support manager, they came back again and we were told that the Inbox doesn't display the size of attachments, it displays the total size of the message, including the overhead imposed by base64 encoding of attachments.
We were told that attachment and message size are different things and that the current behaviour is correct.
This was not the view of our users who were logging a lot of complaints about this. So we asked for a third time that they log this as a bug. They refused again and instead logged it as a Request for Enhancement - giving it a low priority since the current behaviour is apparently correct.

Rebate billing doc not reflected in COPA

I have mapped the rebate condition type BO01 to BO05 with a COPA value field called rebate value already. However, I found that no COPA doc is created after the rebate billing doc is created. Why? How can I check the configuration?
I have tried in the billing doc simulation transaction and got the following message.
Document "90000028" is not profit-related and thus could not be transferred
Message no. KF755
Diagnosis
Sales document "90000028" was not transferred to Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) because it is not relevant for the analyses in CO-PA. This can be due to one of the following reasons (among others):
The document type is not profit-related, such as an inquiry
The sales document shows zero for the quantity
The sales document has been denied
The sales document is locked due to credit reasons
A rebate doc of course has no qty, and is a credit note, so how should I configure the COPA?
Thanks,
Vicki

i have assigned my deliverung plant 8501 and distribution channel to 8700 . Created Internal customer representing 8700 in 8500/01/01 sales area and assigned to 8700 sales organisation. Ordertype OR assigned to billing type IV.
I created a sales order from sales area 8700/01/01 with a customer 1920 and the dispatch plant is 8501.
I did delivery , PGI and i did normal invoice from 8700 company code to 1920 customer . sales account is reflected in company code 8700 ( g/l account 410001 in FS10N)
then i did intercompany billing from 8500 to internal customer. accounting document is generated. But i can,t see it in 8500 company code under G/L account 410001 eventhough it has created with accounting document in 410001.

So Mohamed, So it is posting to right account and you can see the Accounting document. But when you display the account balances, you don't see the Accounting Document there? Is that the issue?
What T code are you using to display the account balances? Also describe briefly what you are doing after entering the transaction?

Ship to party and Bill to party not reflecting in marketing documents

Hi,
Ship to party and Bill to party not reflecting in marketing documents inspite of defining it in BP Master data.why does it happen.we are on 8.8 version and this is happening in Livedatabase.
Thanks,
Mansoor Baig

Hi Mansoor,
Is this for new transactions or existing ones that went thru the 8.8 upgrade? Is this for new BP that the address doesn't show or existing (if you have other transactions with no address problem then it shouldn't be the address format setup unless something happened in the upgrade).

CCA - Actual assessment (KSU5) / allocation not reflected in GLFUNCT table

Hi there,
One of my client uses functional area for reporting. Functional area is derived using cost ctr category while posting. When reports are generated, actual assessment / allocation does not reflect in the functional area report.
The amounts shown are same as the original posting. Is there any report which can show functional area values after the assessment (KSU5) / allocation (KSV5)?
I created a report using report painter using the library 0F (GLFUNCT), but the value is before KSU5 / KSV5. Any way to get the amount after KSU5 / KSV5?
Thanks
RG

Hi,
Functional areas are being deployed for the purpose of Cost of sales accounting in FI area only. The distribution and assessment cycles which are being undertaken in Controlling will not be available in Finance tables. If you need functional area wise report in Controlling, you can run the standard report on the basis of group of cost centers which are assigned to a particular Functional area.
Trust this helps much!
Cheers!

Vendor listed in the batch does not reflect actual supplier.

Hi,
Vendor listed in the batch does not reflect actual supplier.
For some (STO's) it reflects the actual supplier & for some it is replaced by receving vendor.

Great, that worked, thanks.
Now I have a small problem. I'm dispatching a MOVE event
manually at one point to force a listener to trigger, and it seems
that afterBounds is null. Here's how I'm dispatching the event:
nativeWindow.dispatchEvent(new
NativeWindowBoundsEvent('move'));
While the MOVE listener function is successfully called,
event.afterBounds.x throws a null reference exception.
Is there an easy workaround?

In order to do this in WebI, you would need to do the following:

1. Create tables in a database to hold the data.
2. Create an application to pull the data out of the CMS using the Query Language.
3. Create a universe to read the data.
4. Create your report(s).

To get this information through the Query Builder, you would have to run a query something like this to get the data for each report:

Select SI_ID, SI_NAME, SI_PARENT_ID 
from CI_INFOOBJECTS 
where SI_KIND = 'Webi' and SI_INSTANCE_OBJECT = 0

You have to build Location based on parent ID values - for each report you would run this query for the returned SI_PARENTID value until SI_PARENTID = 0

Select SI_NAME, SI_PARENT_ID 
from CI_INFOOBJECTS 
where SI_ID = [SI_PARENT_ID value from the previous query.]

To get the recurring schedules, you need to query based on the SI_ID for each report:

Select count(SI_ID) 
from CI_INFOOBJECTS 
where SI_PARENT_ID = [SI_ID value for the report] 
and SI_SCHEDULE_STATUS = 9

Change the Schedule_Status to 1 to get the count of the successful instances.

To get the person who created the schedule, get the SI_OWNERID of the instance and run this query:

Select SI_NAME 
from CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS 
where SI_ID = [SI_OWNERID for the schedule.] 

And so on....As you can see, it gets pretty complicated.

You can't just query the CMS database directly because almost all of this information is stored in a proprietary binary format in BLOB fields in the database.

Milestone billing not splitting the invoice

Hi,
i specified Milestone Billing during a Sales Order but when i try to bill the customer using transaction VF01,
it bills the whole amount of the Sales Order even though i specified only 25% to be billed.
For example, i created a Sales Order with net amount $100, and specified in the Billing Plan for it
to invoice the customer 25% today. But when i do simulate the billing using transaction VF04, it
shows the invoiced amount as $100 instead of $25.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

Hi SHAMBHU SARKAR,
I got milestone billing to work by specifying billing type F2 under the 'Billing plan' tab in transaction VA02.
Also make sure that your 'Date Category' in the 'Billing plan' tab is set to 01 for milestone billing.
Otherwise, go to SPRO -> Sales and Distribution -> Billing -> Billing Plan ->.... to check that your settings are correct and that
you have assigned a Billing Plan to either your Sales Document Type or your Item Category depending
on whether you want to use milestone billing at header level or line item level.
Hope this helps.
Good luck!

Milestone Billing based on Percentage & Quantity

Hi,
Can you please guide how to map the following scenario
I have Business Scenario in Milestone Billing.
The Milestone terms are assigned in CJ20N and the same is copies to
sales order. The Milestone terms defined in the Project are
50% Advance Payment
40% Agaisnt Supply (Treating this also as advance)
10% At the time of Installation.(Treat this also as advance)
50% Revenue Realisation
50% Revenue Realisation
Order quantity is 100RMT
Order Value 10000
The definition of the each milestone is as follows -
Advance Payment: This Milestone raised at the time of booking of sales
order for Advance Payment. Unless advance is receivd orders are not
execute in the business. It means 50% of 10000 = 5000
40% Agaisnt Supply : This Milestone is raised based on supply of
material to the customer. It means as of Milestone Billing Date if
material dispatched is 20MT then the Milestone Billing Booked in the
system is 10000*40% *20/100= 800 (treat this also as advance payment
and client called it as Running Bill) and the same way book the billing
in the system upto completion of 100RMT.
At the time of Installation: This Milestone is raised when the
Installation process is starts. It mean example, if finish the
Installation of 10RMT, then the Milestone Billing is raised as per
below formula - 1000010%10/100 =100 (Treat this also as Advance
Payment and call it as Running Bill).
Actual revenue is booked in the system, once receive the completion
certificate from the client.
As of now in the system, only accept the value base or percentage base
milestones in the system. This type of above scenario how to map in
the system, can please propose a solution.
Kindly help me
Regards
Goutham

hi Goutham,
you need to configure your item categories for revenue recognition based on milestones. Thus, what happens then is you are separating revenues and billing. You can continue billing your customer for whatever milestones you have 50/40/10%, and the revenue can be recognized on the completion of the final milestone.
For customizing revenue recognition type on item category level go to
Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Account assignment / Costing ->
Revenue Recognition, Or via transaction: OVEP.
Set Revenue recoginition as Category A timebased revenue recognition
and Accrual period start as B -proposal based on billing plan start date
in a milestone billing plan, the billing date of the first milestone is then taken as accrual start date.
You can work on the latest version of the Revenue Recognition Best Practices Guide. The link can be found in note 779365.
Thanks

Hello Saravanan,
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

Sales Order with Partial and down payment (milestone billing)

Hello Experts,
I have configured a scenario where a down payment and a partial payment and a closing invoice is done on the billing plan for a sales order. The down payment request was done and posted manually in FI and the process went well. The issue i have is that the down payment is not reflected in my partial invoice or my second invoice and my closing invoice as well is not reflecting the payment made for the partial invoice (which is suppose to contain the amount less the down payment).
Please, how do i resolve this issue?
Thanks.

Hi,
See from what i feel from your description is, the business process is as follows:-
1) You receive the down payment request, this goes to a special g/l with indicator "F". Now when you recieve the payment you subsequently clear the amount through T-code F-29. In this case the down payment amount or the advance is treated as a deposit, which you adjust against each partial invoice, or completion of certain project.
2)When you create a partial invoice, considering the example in my earlier post you book complete value of the invoice i.e. RS 800.
The client requires that RS 720 and Rs 80 should goto seprate g/l accounts. IN this case you need to define a condition type say "zadv" assign a new account key to it say "zad" in SPRO>SALES AND DISTRIBUTION>BASIC FUNCTIONS>ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT/COSTING>REVENUE ACCOUNT DETERMINATION>DEFINE AND ASSIGN ACCOUNT KEYS.After billing of the correspoding amount I.e RS 80 will be cleared through F-39. Please check the same with you FI consultant.
3)Since the condition tab page is greyed out , SPRO>SALES AND DISTRIBUTION>BASIC FUNCTIONS>PRICING>PRICING CONTROL>DEFINE AND ASSIGN PRICING PROCEDURE>ASSIGN PRICING PROCEDURE TO BILLING TYPES. Also check in tcode VOFA wether oc. pric. procedure si assigned or not.After doing this you can add teh condition type "ZADV".
also you can refer to this link down payment condition type (azwr)

Milestone Billing Plan issue

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.

Chandra
