Proforma invoice (F5) creates accounting document

We have an issue with Proforma invoices creating accounting documents. I did some research here and it seems that it is an unexpected behavior for a proforma invoice, but I couldn't find any information about what exactly is preventing them from creating accounting documents.
Could anyone point me in the right direction where this might be configured? Unfortunately, I'm mostly an ABAPer and am not that familiar with SD config. I did find the transaction VOFA though and checked the settings for F5 there. It seems odd that 'Posting block' checkbox is unchecked. Is it supposed to be checked or are there any other fields that would influence the creation for accounting documents?
Thank you.

I checked the fileds, as suggested. F5 has the following settings:
SD document category = 'U'
Transaction group = 8
all the fields in Cancellation and Account Assignment are blank
some fields are set up in Output parameters (I don't think they have anything to do with this)
both Posting Block and Statistics are currently not checked
It seems that Statistics checkbox only influences the creation of statistical records (i.e. population of LIS/SIS structures).
What is interesting though is that Document Type field is blank for F5 and for other invoice types (e.g. F2 or FV, which we are also using)...
Is there another area in SPRO where the connection between SD and FI could be configured? I've also looked at the Copying Requirements, but there is nothing for Billing to Accounting...

Unable to create Accounting document for my Outgoing excise Invoice

Dear All,
I am implementing sales from Factory. I am unable to creat accounting document for my Outgoing excise invoice. When I click the Utilization button, The excise invoice type is selected Deemed.
1. How to control which Which Excise invoice type should be selected in J1IIN.
2. For Deemed exports will system not genererate Accounting document for Excise Invoice?
3. Where to view the excise invoice document types (Like Billing and order types)
Thanks & Regards

For deemed export sales,
-Accounting documents will not get generated. (ref: Excise Acct Determination in CIN settings, you will not find Excise Tranraction type:ARE3 for which G/L account will not be assigned)
-Excise Invoice type will be automatically triggered based on configuration : Excise Group / Series Group detetermination.
- For Deemed Exports , only Quantity will get updated in RG1, but not the value. thats the reason, accounting document will not get generated.
- This excise invoice is created, for - to update the RG1 registry / ARE3 creation.
hope it clears

Cancel billing doc (S1) is not creating Accounting document

Hi,
I have cancelled F2 billing document with cancel billing type S1. But for that cancel billign doc S1 is still in open status only and it is not creating accounting document..
I tried to release to accounting but it is showing error like " Document type is not defined"..
Please any guess on this..

sankar

Hi sankar
I am sure you might be aware of this but just to reiterate
When you cancel documents in Logistics Invoice Verification, the document line items are not automatically cleared in Financial Accounting. We recommend that you periodically clear such items (using daily background jobs, for example).

Error creating accounting document for a credit note

Hi All,
I am facing an issue while creating an accounting document for the credit note created.
The scenario is as follows:
Created a credit memo --> created credit note --> create accounting document
While creating accounting document, i'm getting an error message as 'The G/L account XXXXXXXX requires an assignement to CO object'.
Please let me know why i'm getting this error and how to overcome this issue.
Thanks,
Anil Kumar

While creating accounting document,
i'm getting an error message
First of all, I am not clear on your above statement as in normal circumstances, once you generate a credit memo, in bacground an accounting document will also be generated.
In your case, I believe while saving the credit memo, system throws the error to maintain CO object in which case, do the following:-
Go to TCode KA02 enter the controlling area, give the G/L acoount No and click on Master data tab. There select "Default Acc Assgmnt" tab and enter Cost centr and save.
Next Go to FS00, input the G/L Account and click on Edit Cost Element on top. There click on Basic Data and for the field CElem category, maintain the required numeric value. Now select the tab Default Acct Assgnmt and there maintain the required cost center and save.

Create Accounting in invoice and Create accounting in payment terms?

hi,
I want to know the difference between create accounting in invoice and create accounting in payment terms and is it compulsory to validate and create accounting in invoice before making payments ?
Regards
Sudharshan

If the accounting method is accrual, then invoice accounting will be Item Expense/Charge -> Liability.
And payment accounting will be Liability -> Cash (it is different if you have reconciliation also)
An invoice has to be validated to get accounted or to get paid.
Payment just need a validated invoice, not an accounted invoice.
But Payment accounting can be done only after the invoice is accounted.

SD invoice printing - No Accounting Document

Dear All,
I am working on the version 4.6C
Do you know how to prevent the printing of SD invoices when no accounting document has been generated ?
Our auditors have criticized the fact that our Sales people could send invoices out to customers whereas they have not yet been posted in FI.
Thank you in advance for your replies.
Kind Regards,
JB

Hi,
to meet your requirement please do it this way.
For the inoivce output condition type there will be print program assigned in t.code NACE. Your abaper can easily help you in this. The abaper will insert a piece of code to check whether an accounting document is generated or not for this invoice and only allow printing then.
so please take your abapers help.

Invoice cancellation does not create accounting document.

Hi. here's the scenario.
A billing document has been creating in transaction VF01.When created, an accounting document and a controlling document have been generated(you can get the document numbers when you click on the 'Accounting' button in VF03 or through FB03).
Problem:
A cancellation has been carried out for the billing document (transaction VF11). However no accounting documents have been created for the cancellation.
Any idea on the customising which was missing?thx.

Hello,
If you accounting period is block, you need to open the accounting period and transfer these documents manually from SD back to FI by using VFX3 transaction code. You need to release them manually to transfer the documents to FI. See the log if there are errors.
It will give the reason when you run VFX3 the documents are not moved back to FI.

Ravi

Please suggest.

This explanation is not in detail and hence I am not clear about your configuration settings.
First go to IMG Logistics-General => Tax on Goods Movements => India => Business Transactions => Outgoing Excise Invoices => Assign Billing Types to Delivery Types.
There ensure that you have assigned the billing type JEX (assuming that you are using the standard) to your delivery type NL.
Perhaps, you can also try with "D" for your item category in Billing Relevance field but I am not sure this will solve your issue. Try in development client.

F8 proforma invoice automatically created, after PGI

After completing PGI, business wants to take a printout of proforma invoice F8 automatically. How to do this?
The truck driver shall take this invoice to the SH To address. Give him 1 copy and get another signed copy back.
Please help, thank you in advance!

From this link, below post is the best answer -
Proforma Invoice F8 automatic creation
Two questions -
1. Is it functional consultant's job or technical consultant / ABAPer's job to do - to setup a Batch job for the Proforma invoice with the Program SDBILLDL in the transaction code SM36?
2. Below indicates that when delivery is created then - via program running in batch - Proforma shall be created, but my business requirement is upon PGI, how to handle this?
Thank you!
Re: Proforma Invoice F8 automatic creation
Posted: Sep 23, 2009 1:54 PM in response to: NICKELODEON Reply
Hi,
You need to setup a Batch job for the Proforma invoice with the Program SDBILLDL in the transaction code SM36.
Goto the Transaction code SM36 and setp a job with the program SDBILLDL , then it will fetch all the Deliveries which are pending for the Billing of proforma.
And in the Transaction code NACE create a output type and assign the Print program and the smartform to the output type .
Create the print program in SE38 and the Smartform in the transaction code SMARTFORMS with the help of ABAPers
Assign this Output to the Output determination procedure .
Now maintain the condition records for the Pfororma billing document F8 and the sales organisation
In the condition records maintain the Medium as PRINT OUTPUT
and the Despatch mode as the 4 ( process the output once the document was saved).
Now once the Delivery was created, the batch job will fetch the delivery and create the proforma invoice and then the output which was created in the NACE will trigger automatically and process.
Once it was process, Spool will generate and simltaneously the output request and the invoice will send to the printer maintained in the condition records.
Please do the above steps and revert back if u find any issue in doing.
regards,
santosh

Proforma invoice is created for delivery without PGI in STO(Depot sales)

Dear Gurus,
I am facing a strange issue, user created Purchase order with some material X of 4 quantity, and he created the replenishment delivery for 1 quantity and without doing any Picking and PGI but system allowed to create proforma invoice with 4 quantity I checked the copy control config settings for Delivery and Proforma invoice all are maintained fine (viz., billing qty as D, copying req:311 and Data VBRK\VBRP:001)( Ichecked the change log for delivery but I didnt observed any chanes in delivery) .. strange to watch ........created the same scenario in quality but system doesnt allowed to create proforma invoice without PGI and picking(Just one month before quality is refreshed with Production).
If anyone faced the same problem let me konw the solution ate the earliest.
Best Regards,
Kishore.SGR

Hi
As already said, as per the standard the Performa Invoice do not check the Goods Issue status of a Delivery since it uses the Copying Requirement 009 in transaction VTFL.
If you want your performa invoice to be created only after the PGI of a delivery, then use the Requirement 003 in Copying Requirement field for the combination of your Delivery Doc. and Billing doc. in transaction VTFL at Header level.

How to find the invoice number from accounting document number?

Hi
I am using the bapi BAPI_AP_ACC_GETSTATEMENT and trying to get the invoice numbers of all the payments.
but i am unable to find the link between the accounting document number from the bapi and the vendor invoice number.
i have tried the tables BSE_CLR, BSEG and BKPF. the field AWKEY in BKPF has the combination of BELNR & BUKRS & GJAHR when the document type is anything other than RE.
How can i get the invoice numbers from the accounting doc. numbers?
Regards
Sujai

I am unable to find the link between BKPF-BELNR and RBKP-BELNR from the bapi return values.
XBLNR is blank when i check the table.
the output of the bapi is something like this
COMP VENDOR   CLEAR_DATE CLR_DOC_NO ALLOC_NMBR   FISC   DOC_NO     ITE
                                                                                1000    1100 ........ ......................................... 20020123           2002 1900000202   002
1000    1100 ........ .........................................20020123           2002 1900000203   002
1000    1100........ .........................................20020123           2002 1900000204   002
1000    1100........ .........................................20020123           2002 1900000205   002
now i try passing the doc_no (1900000XXX) and the fiscal year (2002) and company code to BKPF
the XBLNR field is blank. This document number sequence doesn't seem to be the accounting document number of the invoice coz that starts with 51XXXXXXXXX.
If i try passing the number with sequence 51XXX... to BKPF i get the invoice number there in the AWKEY field.
I am not sure what this sequence (19___) represents.
