Pro rata billing in SAP FE-FX

Hi,
Can anybody tell me how can the pro rata billing in RE-FX can be done. What config setting we have to do for pro rata billing. and the invoice can be generated in RE-FX.
Is there is any link for configuring the billing.
Thanks,
Shailendra

Hi,
I have exactly the same requirement. Making the value 'M', does not adjust the price automatically.
Currently I have as below (dates in dd/mm/yyyy) in the billing plan schedule item level.
11/01/2010 to 31/01/2010 - $3100
01/02/2010 to 28/02/2010 - $3100
01/03/2010 to 31/03/2010 - $3100
01/04/2010 to 30/04/2010 - $3100
01/05/2010 to 31/05/2010 - $3100
01/06/2010 to 30/06/2010 - $3100
01/07/2010 to 22/07/2010 - $3100
What I would like is to have as below,
11/01/2010 to 31/01/2010 - $2100 "Adjusted for 21 days of the month
01/02/2010 to 28/02/2010 - $3100 + $520
01/03/2010 to 31/03/2010 - $3100 + $520
01/04/2010 to 30/04/2010 - $3100 + $520
01/05/2010 to 31/05/2010 - $3100 + $520
01/06/2010 to 30/06/2010 - $3100 + $520
01/07/2010 to 15/07/2010 - $1500 " Adjusted for 15 days
" Additional $520 is the amount distributed equally among all entries except first and last, so that the net amount that will be billed to customer remains same.
Please share some ideas on how I can achieve this - either through configuration or in coding.
Thanks

Why can't we have simple pro rata billing?

I've been a BT Broadband customer for ten years, and I am sick of these sales packages with their prefabricated bandwidth allowances and telephone or TV options. It seems to me that the BT Broadband sales strategists have a philosophy more appropriate to selling fried chicken. It's comparable to "bargain basket, 3 pieces chicken plus chips; bumper basket, 5 pieces chicken plus chips and free drink, family basket, 7 pieces plus chips and relish pack." Hence the insultingly stupid photograph on the BT Broadband web page, of a young Internet TV consumer before a flickering screen, cramming chicken segments into his mouth from a paper basket while laughing idiotically. BT's standard telephone service was never like this. You never found that if you didn't make 2 or more calls a month, you would be charged a non-use fee of £2, as happens with one of BT's Broadband plus phone packages. Nor did you get emails saying you had exceeded your allowance and would be charged a flat-rate fine, but "we know it can be confusing keeping track of your bandwidth usage; why don' you switch to a larger, more expensive package?" I suggest a simple solution: sack all the sales strategists and sell services with simple pro rata billing. Charge customers for what they use, plus a flat rate rental, just like you do with the simple phone service. You keep track of individual usage anyway, so that you can nag people about exceeding their allowances. So why not just charge pro rata and get rid of the sales packages? Or are you totally wedded to tricking people into paying for more than they need?

Welcome to the forum, which is essentially a customer to customer affair and messages do not necessarily reach anyone in BT.
As a fellow customer I couldn't agree more, except to say that it's not just BT. But you have to realise that we're ungrateful wretches, refusing to give thanks for the bountiful gifts of competition that were promised when telecoms and other utilities were thrown to the wolves of big business. The fact is though that when you're sending pretty much the same signals down the same wires, the same current down the same cables, the same gas through the same tubes, you've got to do something to snare more customers than the next firm. What better way than conning Joe Public into believing that your ever-changing, unfathomable price structure, all wrapped up in shoddy customer service from minimally-trained staff with little understanding and even less commitment, is better than anyone else's? If I was a cynic I could bang of for hours.

Pro rate function in billing plan

Folks
Would any one know how i could pro rate the value for the last month of the billing plan cycle. You would think this is a standard SAP function
I have looked, and i am not able to find a solution. Our customer does not want to do any code changes. Let me know if you know of any standard changes that can be done.

SAP has Retroactive Billing funcitionality
Use
New pricing agreements that you make with your customers may affect billing documents that have already been processed and settled. If a new pricing agreement is effective before the pricing date of the billing documents, you can perform retroactive billing to call up a list of these documents and reevaluate them with the new price. You can then create additional billing documents to settle any differences.
Integration
Retroactive billing is a special billing function often used in scheduling agreement processing.
Features
With the retroactive billing function, you can:
Call up a list of documents affected by price changes
Trigger the system to create the necessary retroactive billing documents directly from the list
Create credit or debit memos directly
Review any errors in a log
Simulate the retroactive billing process for any document
How does Retroactive Billing work?
In this example, the system calculates the difference between the net value of the invoice ($100) and today's net value based on the new price ($90). It then creates a credit memo with the net value of $10 to be credited to the customer.
Primary and Secondary Documents
The system calculates retroactive billing values for primary documents. It can use secondary documents to help calculate this value.
Invoices are always primary documents.
Other billing documents, such as debit or credit memos, can be primary or secondary documents. This depends on the order reason entered in the billing document.
For more information on how the order reason is used to control primary and secondary documents, see Order Reason in Retroactive Billing. This section will also provide a more detailed example of how retroactive billing works.
Primary Documents
Primary documents are:
Invoices
Credit memos that refer to returns
Credit and debit memos in which you have entered the relevant order reason
You can also assign an order reason to a memo request which then passes it along to the referenced credit or debit memo.
Secondary Documents
Secondary documents are the following billing documents in which you have entered the relevant order reason:
Credit and debit memo requests
Credit and debit memos
The system displays such a document only when it has been created with reference to the invoice and when the currencies in both documents match.
If you create a credit or debit memo (or memo request) without reference to an invoice, you will not be able to see in the retroactive billing list if the invoice has already been billed retroactively.
When you create a credit or debit memo request which is relevant for retroactive billing as a secondary document, the system will use it to calculate retroactive billing for the referenced document.
The system does not take into account whether or not a request has been rejected, partially billed, or billed using another pricing procedure. Also, it does not take into account any changes in the payer, sold-to party, sales organization, billing date, or material.

Pros & Cons of Using SAP PI Interfaces for Report Generation

Hi Guru's
I have a Scenario's like
I have to generate a customized report in SAP with the main data's available in SAP ECC and some required data available in the Legacy System.
I want to know the Pros & cons of using SAP PI RFC/Proxy adapter interface to get the data from the legacy system for each time the user execute the report in SAP ECC.
Thanks in Advance

There are couple of "dimensions" to consider in your PI interface design. For exemple when you are running the sizing exercise (Since we are considering adding a net new interface), you will need to capture specific information about new interface.i.e. S/A, adapters, frequency, avg payload size. etc..Note that the last two attributes will be hard to size properly in this case since you can't predict how frequent the end user will run the report which will impact the latency time required to pull the data. Latency will affect the user experience as visible side affect and definitely the SLA for other interfaces running at the same time.
On the other hand, the data you are trying to retrieve from the legacy won't be used for transactional purpose but for the end user to pull KPIs from the system which can affect ECC as well. You may end up doing lot hot fixes for your report (Assuming that the report is a medium complexity code)
There are other factors to consider but let's consider these are the major one.
Cheers,

Profit center issue at the time billing from SAP CRM

Hi,
we are using SAPR/3 4.7 & SAP CRM 5.0.
we are creating service orders in CRM .
After completion of service order we are doing billing due list & billing in SAP CRM. Then we are releasing billing document to R/3.
Here problem is i dont have profit center field in SAP CRM for teh Service Product.
at the time of the releasing teh billing document system is picking teh dummy profit cenetr .
But i need to post teh billing document for teh respective profit center.
Can you help some body.
Regards
Chandra

See Note 386391
The CRM Server is connected to an R/3 System that can be used to map Controlling and Profit Center Accounting. This note describes how the profit center is determined in the CRM integration.
In the sales process and in service processing, the profit center is determined during the replication into the R/3 System and is stored in the translator.

After 1 year earned leave should generate and pro-rata quota should generate next year on jan 1st.

Hi Experts,
Here is the client requirement and please let me know how to solve this.
Earned Leave: after 1 year earned leave should generate and pro-rata quota should generate next year on jan 1st.
Example: if employee joins on 01/07/2012 after 1 year i.e 01/07/2013 quota should generate 22 days next year on 01/01/2014 pro-rata quota i.e 01/07/2013, 11 days pro-rata quota should generate. Total 22+11 =33 have to generate on 01/01/2014. and next year 01/01/2015 (22+11+22)=55.
Note: on 1/7/2013 = 22 days
on 1/1/2014 = 11 days +22 days; total=33
on 1/1/2015 = 33 days +22 days; total=55
Conditions: if employee joins before 15th date of current month include the current month, if employee joins after 15th date exclude the current month.

You will need 2-3 PCRs to address this.
In one PCR you need to query the Date of Hire (from IT0041 - I guess you are maintaining this) using HRS=YDAYxx - where xx is the date type. You can then check it it is the first year anniversary or not by using HRS?01. If the condition satisfies populate a custom time type with 22 days.
In another PCR, you need to check for 01 Jan by using HRS=BCURMO and HRS=BCURDY. In this PCR check again the length of service (see above). If it is more than 1, then proceed to give the pro-rata amount.
If the pro-rata formula is simple you can use the second PCR or you would need a 3rd PCR to get the pro rata amount. Using HRS=Y**** operator you can query many date differences which will help.

Best practice to Load FX rates to Rate Application in SAP BPC 7.5 NW

Hi,
What is the best practice/approach to load FX rates to Rate Application in SAP BPC 7.5 NW? Is it from ECC or BW?
Thanks,
Rushi

I have seen both cases.
1) Rates coming as a flat file from external system, treasury department, and ECC and BPC both loads in to respective systems in batch.
2) ECC pushes rate info to BW and data in turn get pushed to BPC along with other scheduled process chains.
How are rates entering your ECC?

Can one execute a "carrier rate shop" in SAP

I have done several searches within the documentation areas and cannot determine if one can execute a "carrier rate shop" within SAP (e.g. TP/VS, TM, LE). Am wondering if standard SAP has the ability to input a origin-destination pair (e.g. ZIP code, or address), input freight weight, choose mode of transportation (e.g. air, LTL, TL, etc.), and even choose any related accessorial - execute the inquiry, and be returned a suggested carrier and the freight cost associated with the shipment? If such exists, where/how to access?

Hi John,
Sorry for the late response but I only just discovered your post. SAP TM has a built-in integration to SMC3's RateWareXL for LTL rates. Please let me know if you need a contact at SAP to assist you further and I'll try to find someone to get in touch with you.

Phil

Does Transfer Invoice Price Variance pro-rate for partial quantity ?

We were planning on using Transfer Invoice Price Variance to Inventory but unfortunately, we find when there's an IPV for quantity that's partly issued - the variance is not pro-rated but entirely applied to the remaining quantity.
Just wondering if this is desired functionality and if so, could we use SLA to ask the program to pro-rate the variance and for partial quantity, apply the pro-rated amount to the quantity remaining and the rest to the Cost Variance account.
Thanks,
Sanjib

TIPV to Inventory doesn't pro-rate for partial quantity.
It transfers the entire IPV to the remaining quantity.

Automate integration of CC&B rate billing factors

We are attempting to automate what is now a manual process of entering rate billing factor values (Main Menu-->Rates-->Billing Factor). I was hopeful Oracle provides some sort of RESTful Web API that I might use for this purpose. It seems the Java-based SDK may be the only way to accomplish this. Is this correct?
I will be setting up a development environment by replicating the setup in production and conducting a POC that demonstrates that this is possible. To be honest, being new to CC&B I can't say it is possible to achieve this through an API or the SDK. I do not want to resort to changing data on the backend outside of a defined interface (API/SDK).
Any guidance here is appreciated. Please advise if I'm posting in the wrong forum. Thanks in advance!

Did you find the document Oracle Utilities Customer Care and Billing - Meter Data Management Integration Implementation Guide?
I searched on eDelivery and Oracle Support, but cannot find the document.

SD billing in SAP-ISU

Hi,
During mass invoicing by batch , SD bill is not getting picked. But if I do it manually through EASIBI , then it's able to pick the SD bill.
Can anyone suggest where the issue might be ?
Thanks,
Bighnajit

Hi Bighnajit,
Two possible reasons why the SD bill didn't get picked up in the batch.
(a) It may happen that the SD bill has been posted in SAP after the invoicing batch job has already run in SAP for the day. Check the creation of the SD bill in SAP.
(b) Ideally, SD bill should get picked during the EA26 run while creating the IS-U invoices.
Check the parameters for EA26-General Selections,Custom Selections if there is something maintained which is not allowing to pick the SD billing in the EA26 batch job.
Hope it helps...
Thanks,
Amlan

Difference between Pro-forma & billing doc.

Dear all,
I wanna know the differnce between pro-forma & billing Doc. ,as i heard that pro-forma do not update the accounts.
So what iz the actual scenario,waiting for reply,
Thanks & Regards,
Olet Malla..

Dear Olet,
As you already told, proforma invoice will not create the accounting entries.
Requirement for Proforma invoice may differs.
One requirement is to intimate the customer to settle an advance payment. While making the payment, customer wants to see the sample bill for which he is going to make payment. So he demands proforma invoice.
Another requirement is to have a document while freight forwarders carry the materials. An invoice or Proforma invoice should be accompanied. This is the legal requirement.
Another requirement to have proforma while Stock Transport Order.

Mullairaja

To Pro-Rate or not to Pro-Rate

Apple has given me two options for my replacement MBP.
Since I still have 2/3rds left of my Apple Care Warranty, they would pro-rate and refund it. Then I would buy a new one at regular price (but at a sort of discount considering the other was refunded.)
They also will simply transfer the old one over as if i never got a new computer.
The problem is apple said they can't tell me how much money I'd get back from the old plan until I actually cancel (includes $25 cancelation fee)
I think the extra year might be nice (get me through 4 years of school then) but at the same time I don't want to do t if its to pricy.
What do you guys think?

Isn't applecare a set price thing only available from Apple stores/apple stores online?
Nope. While you can't obviously haggle with the online Store, physical stores and Apple Store phone agents can play to a certain degree with pricing when it comes to price matching. Asking for a discount on its own will get you a big fat no.
Anyone who can sell a Mac can sell AppleCare so it does pay to shop around. While margins on AppleCare for retailers aren't anywhere near as good as they once were (around 50%) there's still room to move.

HT201318 am I being double charged or do I get a pro-rate?

am I being double charged or do I get a pro-rate? since I already bought storage earlier in the year?
