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.

  • Order-related Billing has delivery status

    Hi Expert,
    I have configured an order-related billing.
    I have tested for complete cycle of document flow (order and billing created).
    Per my checking in the document flow, the order has status of "Being processed" and the billing is "Completed".
    Per my checking in the S/O document status overview (VA03 > Environment > Status Overview), "Delivery Status" listed there.
    I believe that the "Delivery Status" should not be listed there, as this is an order-related billing.
    I did not configure any delivery type.
    I configured copy control from sales order to billing.
    Please help me.
    TQ.
    Yati

    Per my checking in the S/O document status overview (VA03 > Environment > Status Overview), "Delivery Status" listed there.
    I believe that the "Delivery Status" should not be listed there, as this is an order-related billing.
    Even if you have ONLY line items with order related billing, still in Status Overview, the delivery status shall be listed; and it shall show "Not delivered".
    This is correct. An item which is order related billing - irrespective of the billing status - delivery shall ALWAYS remain Not delivered.

  • Delivery Related Billing rather than Order Related Billing in Return Sales

    Hi
    There is a requirement from the client that the Returns Invoice (RE) generated must be related to LR Delivery Type rather than Return Sales Order Type(RE).
    I have maintained the Copy Control from LR (Returns Delivery Type) to RE(Returns Invoice Type).
    Then Changed the billing relevance of REN (Item Category ) from - 'B' Relevant for order-related billing - status acc.to order qty
    to A     Delivery-related billing document.
    When i create the Returns Invoice, it is allowing me to create the Invoice even before the Post Goods Receipt of the LR Returns Delivery Document.
    It should allow me to create the invoice only after Post Goods Receipt.
    Can any one share their inputs.

  • 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

  • Invoice is not getting created in Order related billing

    Dear all,
    I am trying to do a Order related billing. After creating the order i am going to VF01 and selecting the billing type i have created and trying to create the invoice. I am getting the error "No billing documents were generated. See log" when i am checking the Log its showing now errors.
    In case if my account determination procedure is wrong, system should allow me to create a Sales invoice and accounting document will not be generated. But in this case even the sales invoice is also not getting created.
    Please suggest me if there are any configuration changes i need to do to overcome this problem.

    Apart from the suggestion already given, also ensure that
    the order is not showing in incomplete log
    the order is not blocked for credit limit
    You can also cross check in VF04 whether system is fetching that sale order.  For information, once you execute VF04, by default, system will check only "Delivery related" check box.  You have to manually select "Order related" check box.

  • Foreign Trade / Intrastat - data order-related billing (downpayments)

    Hi,
    Shortly we have implemented the down payment functionality in our flows. Because downpayments require order-related billing the intrastat/foreign trade data is not copied into the closing invoice.
    Apparently it is only possible to copy the data from a delivery.
    We are in a make-to-order environment and we still create deliveries but because of the down payments, the invoice is created from the sales order and hence no intrastat data is copied which ofcourse is required ...
    Can't find a suitable user exit for filling this data into the billing document. Also tried using copy data transfer (vofm) filling up tables eikp and eipo but that didn't work.
    The only option open for me at the moment is creating a proforma invoice automatically from the delivery. This document can then be included in the intrastat reporting.
    Is there another solution ?
    with regards

    Hi,
    in the copy control between order and invoice you need to set the 'determine export data' to 'B' so that it will be redetermined in the invoice. After that the relevant foreign trade userexits will work as well.

  • Order related billing

    27.01.2011
    Hi friends,
    I am trying to create order related billing. The material is a service, but i need to have a delivery created in the background.
    I have created an order and the delivery is created automatically.
    But when i am trying to create an invoice F1 against this sales order the log shows
    Order quantity 1 not equal to goods issue 0.
    in the item category the billing relevance is 'B" relevant for order related  billing  - status according to order qty.
    In the copy control for F1 billing type and orer type OR the billing quantity indicator is 'C' order quantity. 
    Can someone suggest the reason for the error message.
    Regards,
    Uday

    HI,
    Order related billing is applicable to service order processing. So, there is no need of delivery document here.
    For your case:
    In a delivery document the u2018Delivery quantityu2019 and u2018Picked Quantityu2019 should be same. In your case, the picked quantity is zero. This is the reason for error message. The picking quantity should be 1.
    You can make the item as u2018Not relevant for pickingu2019 at Delivery item category level in customization. Then the Picked quantity field will be greyed. It will not throw error.

  • 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

  • Copying Freight condition from delivery, on order related billing line

    Hello,
    Greetings!
    My client use Pitney Bowes interface to calculate freight on outbound deliveries, Interface creates condition ZPFR on delivery; It works well, however scenarios such as milestone billing and phantoms are order related billing; I couldn't find standard way to read those delivery conditions and bring over to order related invoice.
    Appreciate your thoughts,
    thank you,
    Hetal

    Hi Mukund,
    As mentioned, Milestone orders and phantom parts are order related billing.
    Components (for phantom) and lines on milestone order are shipped, therefore freight is calculated on delivery.
    At this moment,
    1. Workaround is to manually add freight condition on sales order, after PitneyBowes calculated freight on above delivery.
    2. Write some custom solution to copy freight condition from delivery to sales order (may not be best solution, but to avoid manual workaround)
    Therefore, freight would carry over to invoice and finance flow works as other delivery related invoicing.
    thank you for reply.

  • Cash sales Order Related Billing

    Dear Forum Members
    Hi
    I need clarification on the following. Both in cash sales and regular sales orders , delivery , PGI and then billing is involved. So why we call cash sales process as  order related billing. I find that unless goods are posted in cash sales delivery , invoice can not be created like in normal sales order. Request your inputs
    Thanks in advance

    Hi narsimha
    There is a lot of difference between cash sales order  and normal sales order
    The differences are
    cash sale document type - BV , standard sales order document type - OR
    Item category for cash sale is BVN and normal cash sales order it is TAN.
    In VOV8, if you go to BV document type details , shipping conditions will be on where as in OR , shipping conditions will not be on .
    In cash sale order , automatically a  delivery number will be created in the background once you save the cash sale order , whereas in normal sales order , after saving order you need to do delivery and then save it then only delivery  number will be generated
    In cash sale  the billing date will be todays date only where as in normal sale billing date can be after 1 week also , depends on the availability check
    In normal sales cycle , you get invoice in billing F2, where as in Cash sale when you create a cash sale order the output you get is the invoice for the customer.
    In cash sale  there wont be any credit , where as in normal sales order there will be credit for customers .
    Example :
    cash sale - A customer purchasing goods in a retail outlet and then and there he is paying cash (no credit) to the retailer.
    Normal sale - Customer purchasing goods but paying in installments , that means he is a regualar customer and he is getting credit.
    Why cash sale  is order related billing ?
    Because , once you save the cash sale order automatically the delivery number is also created. now when you go to VL02n and enter the picking quantity it has to be fully referenced , of how much you have given in the cash sale order . But if you try to do partial delivery . you cant do again , you need to change the quantity  what you have given in the delivery and enter in VA02 and enter the same quantity. then only the order will be closed
    check the billing relevance for the item category BVN ( it is order related billing)
    normal sales order is delivery realted billing ?
    Because the item category for TAN is  relavent for delivery and Billing relevence is different from BVN
    you can do paritial deliveries in normal sales cycle till complete order quantity is referenced

  • Difference between delivery related and order related billing

    Hello Friends,
    Kindly explain the difference between delivery related and order related billing with an example. Thanks

    The billing relevance is controlled by item category of material, which u have assigned to sales document type.
    For example
    1.item category –TAN
    Billing relevance is –A- Standard-Delivery-related billing document
    So in standard order of material which has to get delivered, we will bill it on its delivery. So billing relevance is delivery related billing.
    2.BVN
    In cash sales item category is BVN whose billing relevance is Relevant for order-related billing - status acc.to order qty.
    So here we will bill the customer from sales order only, no need to go to delivery.

  • Order related billing for manufacturing

    Can anybody explain to me the effects of order-related billing in manufacturing? What if deliveries is not the same as sales order. Or should i just make another order type for this?
    Thanks in advance!

    Dear Joker,
    -->Why you want to go for sales order related billing with out delivery reference !!
    -->Are you not creating any delivery after sales order !!
    -->Delivery is entirely different from sales order.
    -->As per the satnsard service related activities will be billed with reference to the sales order because here there will not be any physical movement of goods.
    -->When ever there is physical movements of the goods you need to create delivery.
    -->When ever there is delivery you better to create billing document with reference to the delivery.
    I hope this will help you,
