Order based billing

Hi
When creating billing documetn through sales order , i am getting error message
0010000611 000010 Item category ZDOM ZTAN cannot be invoiced with billing type ZDF2
Kindly suggest how to resolve
Regards

Hello,
Please check the following customization setting;
SPRO>>Sales &Disribution>>Sales>>Sales Documents>>Sales Document Item>>Define Item Categories
Now select item category as ZTAN and see the billing relevance under Business Data Tab.
If it is deleivery related billing, then you need to use correct billing document type.
Also you need to check your iteme category with transcation VTFL, here you need to select your delivery type and billing type and check whether you have maintained the item category. If your item category is missing here, system is giving that error message. You have to maintain item category in this.

Excise Invoice for Order Based Billing Scenerion

Dear Friends,
We have a scenarion, wherein we are working with Sales Order Based Billing.
We are in the process of Implementing CIN with TAXINN.
Is it possible to create excise invoice for the scenarion of Sales Order based billing, instead of delivery based billing.
If yes, what are the steps we need to follow to configure the same.

Combined order based and delivery based billing

Hey Gurus,
We are using ZTAN items and ZTAD items on the sales orders. We are trying to figure out how to combine these two together to create one invoice. Can you guys help us with what the configuration should be in order do this? I woudl like to knwo what settings I need to make in item category and also what settings need to be changed in the copy controls? Do I need to change them for F2 and other settings in VTFA?
Please let us know.
Sincerely,
Nina

Hi,
Delete the Assignment number and Reference number in the copy control at the header level details in VTFA.
For this message and try it .
We are using order based billing for the ZTAD items right now and using delivery based billing for the ZTAN items. So, to answer your question, we do want to combine these two together.
I have tried setting the VTFA copy control settings to 001, and I still can't seem to get the two line items to combine.
Note, I only created a new copy control for the ZTAD items.
I looked to see if the header data was different and this was the log that was outputted but I can't seem to figure out what this means:
Fld Name $000000001 $000000002
Combination criteria in the bi 0013030 00330308000000064
Assignment number $
I am not sure how to analyze this. If you have any suggestions, I would be really appreciative. Thanks for all of your help Shivaji.

Hi
You can make the control setting as to whether the invoice receipt quantity or the goods receipt quantity should be relevant for billing in the copy control for billing on the item level in the billing quantity field.
In Customizing, choose Sales and Distribution -> Billing -> Billing documents -> Maintain Copying Control for Billing Documents -> Copying Control: Delivery to Billing Document -> Item, then select an item category.

VPRS-based condition redetermined in return order (referencing billing doc)

I have an issue with copy-control from invoice to return order.
I want the invoice pricing conditions to be copied unchanged to the return order.
This is similar to when creation the Sales order>Delivery>Billing Document.
I need to make a return order for the same amount as in the original sales order (naturally, we want to credit the same amount).
This works fine for all conditions, except for a VPRS-based condition, which is redetermined upon return order creation.
The VPRS-based condition should fetch the moving average price for the sales order only, not for the return order.
I have maintained copy control for billing document to sales order with pricing type 'G'
G: Copy pricing elements unchanged and redetermine taxes. The system
This works fine for Sales order --> Delivery --> Invoice, but not for Invoice --> Return order.
I would prefer not to use a formula, but I guess one alternative solution is to fetch the condition value from the original sales order if I cannot do this with customizing.
Let me know what you think about the forumla (VOFM) and if it is possible to achieve copy-control with unmodified condition values for the VPRS-condition.
Thanks!

Ok, thanks for your input!
I'm sharing my solution:
I implemented a new condition value formula for my pricing procedure:
VOFM>Formulas>Condition value
FORM FRM_KONDI_WERT_XXX.
DATA: lv_kbetr TYPE kbetr,
        ls_vbfa TYPE vbfa,
        lv_knumv TYPE knumv.
Get moving average price for return order from SO
The ZPRS pricing condition modifies price in return order
The value of ZPRS should be the same in return order and SO
IF xkomv-kschl EQ 'ZPRS'.
Get sales order and position
    SELECT SINGLE vbelv posnv
      INTO corresponding fields of ls_vbfa
      FROM vbfa
      WHERE vbeln   EQ komp-vgbel "invoice number
        AND posnn   EQ komp-vgpos "invoice item
        AND vbtyp_n EQ 'M'         "invoice
        AND vbtyp_v EQ 'C'.        "order
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
Get sales order conditions key
      SELECT SINGLE knumv
        INTO lv_knumv
        FROM vbak
        WHERE vbeln EQ ls_vbfa-vbelv.
      IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
Get moving average price from sales order conditions
        SELECT SINGLE kbetr
          INTO lv_kbetr
          FROM konv
          WHERE knumv EQ lv_knumv
            AND kposn EQ ls_vbfa-posnv
            AND kschl EQ 'ZPRS'.
        IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
Recalculate condition values
          xkomv-kbetr = lv_kbetr.
          xkomv-kwert = ( lv_kbetr * komp-mgame / 1000 ).
          xkwert      = xkomv-kwert.

Milestone based billing in OM-AR or PA - Help needed

Hello,
need your valuable suggestion to identify the best approach, including modules, for the following business scenario with Minimum Customization.
Business A directly receives orders/ contracts from customers. Business A does not manufacture any product. Instead they cut POs to different suppliers (against the items in the order) and the suppliers in-turn directly ships the material to customers. Business A directly invoice customers and also pay the suppliers.
Key points to note:
- Oracle E-Biz 11.5.10.2
- Customer billing will be milestone based e.g. 20% down payment at order booking, 40% prior to shipment and 40% upon material delivery etc of the total Order value.
- There may be one billing milestone for material acceptance by the customer
Possible solution approaches:
==================
We were thinking about OM, PO, INV (virtual), AR, AP etc with standard Drop Ship process but as we know, milestone based billing cannot be done thru normal OM-AR process.
If we use PA then another approach can be to disable interface transaction from OM to AR and then use customization:
i) In PA billing extension called by Generate Draft Invoice (GDI) process to look at eligible orders (in OM) for billing with appropriate amount
OR
ii) Create an interface to raise billing events in PA (using Event API) by looking at at eligible orders (in OM) for billing with appropriate amount.
However, using PA additionally along with OM will have following disadvantages:
a) Good amount of customizations for needed integrations
b) PA/ Projects will be added as an additional module without much benefit to the above mentioned business model.
Can we use AR in a different way here by disabiling the OM-AR interface transaction but using the OM details for multiple AR invoices thru some short customization. Or for that matter any other approach outside normal OM-AR process.
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Order Related Billing - Overall Status B after billing

We have changed billing relevance of our order related billing item category to B (Relevant for order-related billing - status acc.to order qty) and the copy control to the billing document to E (Goods receipt quantity less invoiced quantity).
This now allows us to bill these sales orders based on the GR and not wait on the IR.
However, how can we control the overall status of the sales order item billed? When billed partially, the overall status is set to B (Being Processed).
I see no process, except changing order quantity which will set this overall status to C.
I see COMPLETION RULE but after setting this and completing billing, the overall status is still BEING PROCESSED. I assume this is because the copy control from sales document to billing document does not have an 'update document flow' option.
Is the solution a custom routine in the copy control?
Thanks

hello, jim.
the system behavior is correct. in a purely order-billing scenario, the status remains as "being processed" because you have not completely billed the item, and there are quantities that are still to be invoiced.
if the open balance is no longer to be billed, in general we "reject" the open items. this action completes the line item status. if there are no other line items in the order, the entire document will also be completed.
i think you have a third party transaction. when you say "partially billed", are you referring to quantities invoiced based on GR, which may be less than the order quantity? if so, rejecting open quantities in the sales order should complete the order.
regards.

FTE and volume based billing for a call center operations

hi,
we have a call center handling operations only for intercompany customers (means no external customers). And we want to go for a solution based on two business processes. first one is FTE (Full time equivalent) and the second is volume based billing (based on how many tickets received between a time period).
The solution approach will be to create cost centers to track costs and billing through normal SAP sales order.
Can anybody guide me through the process here with some explanation or documentation related to this?
Thank you all

hi,
this is to inform you that,
create a master contract - 1st step.
create a value and a service contract - 2nd step.
link this two low level contracts to master contracts.
different pricing procedures will be there for value and service contracts each.
the process flow of this is :
1. for value contract : MASTER CONTRACT - SALES ORDER - DELIVERY - BILLING.
2. for service contract : MASTER CONTRACT - SALES ORDER - BILLING.
hope this clears your issue.
please let me know if you have any doubts on the same.

Can Billing Quantity be Different from Order Quantity in Order Related Bill

Hi
I have encountered a scenario here at my client.
My client wants that the billing document should be created with reference to Sales Order but only that value of invoice should be relseased to accounting which is delivered.
For example,
Sales Order = 10 units
Billing Document= 10 units
Delivery = 5 Units
Released to Accounting Value = Eqvalent to 5 Units which are delivered.
Reason why Sales Order and Billing should be of same quantity is that when a customer asks for an order confirmation, he requires Billing document for legal purposes but they want to hit their G/L's only on the basis of Quantity Delivered. As they are not aware when the customer come back to pick his remaining quantity. So they do not want to hit their accounting based on Sales Order quantity.
Any ideas?

Hi,
If billing has to be posted only after delivery, it is a clear case of Delivery related Billing. It is not order related billing.
You SHOULD have the following scenarios here.
Have a normal order and have Proforma invoice linked to it with the condition that the quantity in proforma invoice should be the same as order.
However do the actual invoice after doing delivery for the order. In this case, the posting will be only for the quantity delivered. You can change the quantity in proforma invoice when you are creating the same from order. So that reqmt is also taken care of.
I dont think of any other scenario where you can meet both reqmts.
Hope this helps

ERP - SD Sales orders with billing plan (material number change appear)

Sales and Distribution.
Regarding sales orders with billing plan.
We create the sales order and create billing plan at header or item level.
We issue down payment request(s) upon receipt of sales order.
Often during the life time of the sales order one or more of the material numbers are changed after the down payment request(s) has been issued and paid by the client.
Our issue is that prior to changing the material number in the sales order we have to reverse the payment(s), reverse the down payment request(s) and after the material number change re-issue the down payment request(s) and register the payment again.
We wish to find a solution avoiding all the reversals.
If you have a similar situation please inform how to handle material number change in the sales orders with billing plan.
Best regards
Lise

Dear Consultor SD ,
There is no setting to create the invoice based on schedule line.
What you can possibly do is create multiple deliveries based on the schedule line and
then invoice the individual deliveries.
If you want system to split the deliveries based on schedule line, then you will have to include Schedule line also
in the COMBINATION REQUIREMENT in VTLA.
Thanks & Regards,

How to create IDoc once Sales Order Invoice (Billing) has been created

Hi,
How to create IDoc once Sales Order Invoice (Billing) has been created ?
I.e Once you click on save button of Invoice , IDoc Should genrate Automatically.
Thanks.

Hi,
We need to do custom configuration for this scenario such that an output type will be attached when ever an INVOICE is created.
Refer to application V3 in NACE. The Output type should contain an entry with transmission medium: Distribution (ALE).
for example check the customization done for an output type in NACE.
Goto NACE ---> Select an application V3 ---> Click on processing routines ---> select the output type (Eg: RD00) ---> Click on Details button (CNTRL + SHFT + F2) which gives the configuration info.
For example we can generate the IDOC based on the settings in partner profiles for the customer (Sold To)

Del related and order related billing on the same order - timing problem

Hi,
In our repair process we need to bill out the loaner part (we put the money on the loaner line that gets shipped and create a delivery related billing document) as well as repaired material when that comes in, goes through the repair and gets shipped back to the customer. In billing the repair itself the money goes onto a special order related line (repQuo check box on the main repair line in the sales order entry).
The problem is that the billing due list shows the order related line due for billing after it is created. We are not supposed to bill the line until the repair is completed. The invoice actually never gets created, the log is output with the error stating that it cannot invoice before the repair is completed, but it still shows in VF04. If I put the order on bill block and filter out blocked orders in VF04, then I can't bill the delivery related loaner parts.
Any suggestions how to make VF04 not show the order related line until the repair is completed?
Thank you,
Sergiy

Check Billing Relevance of your I Cats(VOV7) and maintain them as per your requirement.
As that indicates what the basis for billing should be.
A: Delivery-related billing document - Billing is based on the outbound delivery. Billing status is only updated in the outbound delivery.
B: Relevant for order-related billing - status according to order quantity - Billing is based on the sales document. The requested delivery quantity determines the billing status.
C: Relevant for order-related billing - status according to target quantity - Billing is based on the sales document. The target quantity determines the billing status.
F: Order-related billing doc - status according to invoice quantity - Relevant for order-related billing documents based on the invoice receipt quantity (third-party business transaction). The system transfers the order into the billing due list only after the vendor invoice has been received and processed in the purchasing department. After the receipt of each invoice, a customer invoice is created for the quantity that appears on the vendor invoice. The order has status "Billed" until the next vendor invoice is received. Item category TAS (Third party item) is set up with billing relevance "F" in the standard system. This process can also be related to the quantity of goods receipt. You can make the control setting as to whether the invoice receipt quantity or the goods receipt quantity should be relevant for billing in the copy control for billing on the item level in the billing quantity field. (In Customizing, choose Sales and Distribution -> Billing -> Billing documents -> Maintain Copying Control for Billing Documents -> Copying Control: Delivery to Billing Document -> Item, then select an item category.)
G: Order-related billing of the delivery quantity - The order is relevant for billing. More specifically, the cumulative delivery quantity that was already delivered is relevant for billing. You can use this category to bill for multiple partial deliveries at once.
H: Delivery-related billing - no zero quantities - You can use this category to avoid items with a value of zero being included in the billing document.
K: Delivery-related invoices for partial quantity - You can use this indicator if you want to select both items and partial quantities for billing.
Hope this can assist you in understanding.
Thanks & Regards

Whast is order related billing and delivery related billing?

Explain about order related billing and delivery related billing
thanks

hi,
just to add,
In Customizing for the item category at VOV7, you can determine the basis for billing using the indicator <b>Billing relevance</b>.
This allows you to carry out the following controls:
A: Relevant for delivery-related billing documents
Outbound delivery is the basis for billing. The billing document status is only updated in the outbound delivery.
B: Relevant for order-related billing documents
The sales document is the basis for billing. The billing status is defined by the required quantity.
In the standard system the item categories REN (returns) and BVN (cash sales) are set up in this way.
So depending upon the billing documents configured to the sales document for order and delivery related billing, would be triggered based on the item category setting for billing relevance.
Pl reward if it helps.
Thanks
