Prevent billing document from going to COPA

Question

Hello,
I have a requirement to prevent a certain billing document from going to COPA. I created a new pricing condition, assigned an account key and linked this account key to a GL account. This enabled the condition value to be transferred to the GL account. In order to prevent the condition value from going to COPA, I did not assign this condition type to a COPA value field (transaction KE4I).
However, I notice that the bllling document is going to COPA but no condition values are getting transferred. Is it possible to prevent such billing documents from going to COPA entirely (as they would unecessarily create a profitability segment)?
P.S: This billing document was created with reference to a delivery of type LO (delivery without order reference) as we do not have the need for a sales order in this scenario.
Thanks,
Rugmani

Hi
First of all, I would like to ask you why you would not like to take this in COPA. When a revenue value is posted in GL account and you dont take a posting in COPA, it would imbalance your FI and COPA profitability...
However, if you have rationally analysed your requirement and you would like to do it anyway, then here is the solution
Use Exit COPA0005 and apply the following code..
(This code is sample, based on blocking COPA doc where distribution channel = 45 and Ref Org Unit = CRMB).. You need to write your code in a way that it does not stop creating the COPA doc in other cases where it is required....
Do thorough testing once you have this code..
*&  Include           ZXKKEU07
data : wa_ACCIT type ACCIT.
if I_ERKRS = 'XXXX'. (Your Op Concern Code)
  read table T_ACCIT into wa_accit with key VTWEG = '45' AWORG = 'CRMB'.
  if sy-subrc = 0.
    E_INIT = 'X'.
  endif.
endif.
