Proforma Invoice for Consignment Orders / Internal Orders
Hello,
we need to implement a consigment inventory (for customers) in our EBS 12.1 environment.
A search in the forum pointed me to this flow that looks quite good already:
(quoting Sandeep Gandhi from thread: Consignment Order in Oracle ( 11.5.10.2 and R12)
>
1) Define each customer as an org
2) When you receive first sales order, create an internal order to ship material from your warehouse to the customer. This ensures that your inventory is updated, shipping documents are generated and invoices are not created. This also ensures that the inventory continues to show up as an asset on your books.
3) When you receive consumption advice from customer, create a regular sales order which will create invoices.
4) This ensures that at any point in time, you can know exactly how much is at each customer location. And you can easily process return of consignment material by doing another Internal Order.
>
That looks almost perfect to us, except one thing: we need a proforma invoice when we ship the material (point 2).
Does anybody know how I could generate a proforma invoice for an Internal Order?
Or did anyone solve that problem differently?
Thanks in advance,
David.
I know that you can generate a proforma invoice for an ISO if the ISO is between 2 different OU.
But the customer Inventory orgs I suggested earlier are typically under the same OU (unless you have reasons to do it otherwise) and so Oracle probably won't generate a Proforma invoice.
If that happens, you can create a custom document and print it along with the shipping documents for the ISO. You don't have to worry about a/c transactions since proforma invoice is basically a commitment that states price/qty etc. It is not really an AR invoice.
Hope this helps,
Sandeep Gandhi

Proforma Invoice for Consignment Fill-up
Hi,
Everytime there is a delivery out from my company, we need to submit a proforma invoice to custom.
Now we plan to implement the Consignment but we facing a problem. After we created the transcations for consignment fill-up (sales order type KB and its delivery order), we want to create the proforma invoice (F8) based on the delivery order but an error occured as below:
"80008164 000010 Item category LF KBN cannot be invoiced with billing type F8."
Is this message telling that consignment fill-up transaction can't use as reference to create a proforma invoice?
Is there any configuration that I need to do to allow the creation of proforma invoice based on the consignment fill-up transaction?
Thank you.Hi Aaron,
You can have a Proforma Invoice for Consignment Fill-up. For this use the following path:
IMG> Sales and Distribution> Sales> Sales Documents> Sales Document Item--> Define Item Categories. Here select the Item Category KBN and select option "D" for Billing Relevance field and "X" for Pricing field (seen in the Business Data option).
Also maintain Copy control between the Delivery type & Billing type using T-code VTFL. Here ensure Copying requirement as 009(DlvRel.pro forma hdr) at Header level. And at Item level select Item category as "KBN" with Copying requirements as 010(DlvRel.pro forma itm), Billing Qty as "B" and Pricing Type as per your requirement.
Hope this helps you.
REWARD if it helps you!!

Proforma invoice for third party sales order
Hi,
How can we create a proforma invoice F5 and then standerd invoice F2 to a third party sales order.The billing relevance for TAS item category is set to B i.e.Relevant for order-related billing - status acc.to order qty
Points will surely be ragarded.
Regards
Edited by: Mrunal Ambatkar on Mar 5, 2010 5:00 PMHi,
Please check whether copy control (VTFA) settings between Sales order type (OR) and Proforma Invoice (F5) is avaiable.
If there is copy control setting available you can create the Proforma Invoice based upon sales doc type.

Creating multipile AUC's for single investment order (internal order)
Hi All,
Can any one tell me how do i create multipile AUC's for single investment order (internal order).
Thanks & Regards
PraveenHi
You can create Multiple AUC for an internal order by configuring AUC per source structure in customizing.
You need to give separate AUC asset class for each Source structure. By activating Manage AUC the system can be configured to create AUC automatically

Proforma Invoice - For IC Export
Hi Gurus
I have a below scenario
This is regarding Intercompany scenario for export sales , Normally when we do export sales we have SAP Standard billing types ( Proforma F8 delivery related and F5 Order Related ) sometimes at the request of the client when they need a proforma invoice even before the delivery happens for an item with item category ( TAN) , SAP does allow us to create Proforma as they are std settings already maintained in SAP between OR and F5 and Item cat TAN
Now when it comes to Intercompany scenarios export sales processing , if we need to have delivery related proforma invoice its possible by implementing the Snote - 445763 and for order related invoices we have note 833115.
Now i would like to know from experts if a requirement for creating a proforma invoice for IC export sales referring to sales order for item cat TAN how can we map this as i understand TAN is delivery relevant , but what i am pointing is a replica of OR-F5 ( for delivery item cat TAN ) for intercomoany scenarios
i have gone through certain posts but i got information on order related IC proforma and Delivery related IC Proforma
But i need it specific to creating a Proforma Invoice for intercompany billing IV with a deliver item cat TAN , how to achieve this and what setting and precautions to be taken in copy control and configuration
Regards
HibaHi Manh
Thanks for your mail, well yes as you mentioned above correctly for OR and TAN we do have SAP Standard settings wherein we can create proforma invoice F5
But my requirement is similar to the above requirement if we have scenario for Proforma Invoice ( Intercompany ) wherein for sales order having a delivery relevant item , I need system to create a Intercompany Proforma Invoice referencing to Sales Order
Intercompany invoice ( Proforma ) referencing sales order delivery relevant item
Please let me know how can we map the above
Many Thanks

Proforma invoice for Service Contracts
Hello,
I know the invoice types F5 for order related proforma and F8 for delivery related invoice. Now I'm looking for possibilities to create a proforma invoice based on a Service contract (Order Type WV) as a periodical invoiced sales order.
I tried to use proforma invoice (type F5) with Service contract but the billing plan will be set on status C (completely processed) so that the same period can not be invoiced again with the real commercial invoice. The billing status in the sales order has been changed as well with the proforma, which should not be the case as the proforma should just generate a printout.
Does SAP offer anything or how can I setup customizing to be able to create proforma for periodical sales orders?
Kind regards
RafaelHello,
Thank's for the information.
Finally I tried to copy our existing invoice type and set it up like F5 but the problem is still that the billing plan periods are set to status C - completely processed. The accounting side is OK as no accounting document is being created.
But with this billing plan situation it would not be possible to create first the proforma invoice for one Period and then later create the real commercial invoice for the same period.
Any ideas what I can setup to avoid this problem? I thought of chancelling the proforma after creation so that the billing period will be opened again, but this is no user friendly or professional solution.
Thank's in advance for your ideas.
Kind regards

Proforma Invoice for Contracts in CRM
Hi,
We have a setup where we print invoice documents from the billing document of the contract.
Now the requirement is to print the proforma invoice for the contract without doing the actual billing in the system.
How can we do this. I found that there can be a billing type with Proforma invoice type however we cant assign it to the existing billing item category.
Regards,
PPHi Pepe,
I have don some investigation on my side and came accross below informations:
In standard the Bill Category PROFORMA is used in two scenarios
mentioned below:
1)The Intracompany Stock Transfer process in order to create a Proforma
Invoice for crossing border requirements.
2)The Supplementary Invoice process where an additional Invoice has to
be created which is not relevant for Accounting.
In CRM Billing it is not possible to create a normal customer invoice
for the same sales order item once the Proforma invoice is created.
This is because only one billing item category can be assigned to a
source document type/item category.
To achieve your requirement you can follow this solution, as you say
there are only a few customers who request for a proforma kind of an
invoice,
1)Create a regular customer invoice and block it for the transfer
process to accounting(By setting the transfer block for the bill_type)
2)Handle this customer Invoice as a proforma Invoice and print it (i.e.
as a crossing border document) 3)When the
Customer Invoice has to be actually sent out to the customer after a
sign off from the customer then the same invoice can be transfered to
accounting
(Use Tx-/BEA/CRMB12)
Or in case if any correction is required in the invoice, then cancel
and re-bill after correction.
I hope this information is useful.In case of any further queries
regarding the same pelase revert else do confirm the message.

Output type for Proforma Invoice for return delivery from delivery type RLN
Client require Output type Proforma Invoice for return delivery to vendor. As such return item category is not relevant for pricing so from delivery to proforma invoice can not have with p-ricing. I got quantity correct but pricing is coming Zero.
Client have ZPAC as packing list output type from delivery which shows quantity and pricing. So decided to use the same logic to pull pricing for proforma invoice from delivery.
Here delivery has standard output ZPAC as packing list with access sequence Z002 as Delivery Type.
I want to pop up output type for all return delivery so using access sequence with delivery type/vendor.
Vendor filed does not exist in delivery output type so brought that firld LIFNR.
It is assigned to procedure and maintained ZPRO output type for Proforma invoice. Asigned VV21 on front end.
Problem Still automatic output type ZPRO is not poping up. What type of access sequence will help me to pop up or what in configuration am I miising?
Appreciate help for solution at earliest.Hi Padamsree,
I know Pricing & output very well. I need profomra invoice to be printed with quantity & value for return goods to the vendor. Pricing is associated with Item category RLLN for delivery type RLL which is return type delivery.
I need to have pricing in my Proforma invoice which is copied from delivery to billing document VTFL. Just check well how it is working in the system & if you know please answer so that it should be workable on the system. As theoretical answer may not be helpful. Appreciate for your time.

Proforma Invoice for down payment
hi,
please what is meant by proforma invoice for down payment and steps for that please help me.
Thanking you,
MadhuH,
An invoice that is created on paper for exported goods to provide the customs authorities with evidence of the cost of the goods.
When you deal in export, you may need to print pro forma invoices. They are used to give the importer or the responsible authorities in the import country details about forthcoming shipments.
A pro forma invoice appears exactly the same as a customer invoice. The difference is that this invoice does not need to be paid. Therefore, the system does not forward data to Financial Accounting (FI). No statistical data is created on the basis of pro forma invoices.

Proforma invoices for non-valuated returnable packaging
All,
just wondering whether it is required to send a proforma invoice for non-valuated returnable packaging that is sent across a border.
Can anybody help me on that one?
Thx in advance!
Regards,
B.Hi,
Going by std SAP best practices, if you are sending materials across the border and also entering foreign trade export data in your sales documents it is advisable to have a proforma invoice for your returnable packaging materials else they may be subject to other taxes, customs or excise duty.
You may check with SAP Global Trade Solutions to check about the implications in detail.

Proforma Invoice for Sales Order
Hi,
Currently, SAP will generate all items using the entered SO for Proforma Invoice despite that some items already being created.
There isn't any suitable user exit to filter those checking on items being generated.
Please revert if there is any other way in doing it.Hi
My suggestion is to use the copying requirements at the item category level in the copy control in VTFA
Copy routine is created in VOFM
KIndly take the help of ABAPER for the Code, example given below
if vbap-vbeln is not initial.
select single * from vbfa into wa_vbfa
where vbelv = vbap-vbeln
and posnv = vbap-posnr
and VBTYP_N = 'U'.
if sy-subrc = 0.
concatenate 'proforma for sales order ' vbap-vbeln 'and' vbap-posnr 'already generated' into lv_text separated by space.
message lv_text type 'E'.
endif.
endif.

Budget controlling for PO using internal order
Dear experts ,
can anyone tell me the step by step procedure to have a budget controlling on PO based on budget ?
Regards
anisDear Anis,
Create Statistical IO and assign budget to them. Then at the PO enter A at the Account assignment or K and you enter the IO number.
If you want the system to check for budget go to SPRO -> Controlling -> Internal Orders -> Budgeting and Availability Control you define Budget RPofile etc and at the selection 'Define Tolerance Limits for Availability Control' you define for you Company code how the system reacts during PO creation. You give tolerances to display messages if the budget is close to depletion etc
Bare in mind that PO create commitments and when the invoices are posted the amount becomes actual. You can check report S_ALR_87013019.
Hope it helps. Generally i have used it, it is very good solution and easy to implement.

Can system produce one single invoice for bulk of sales orders?
Hie all...
I have a few questions with regards to sales orders per Billing.
1) Can the system cater for creation of only ONE Invoice for about 8,000 sales orders in one click of VF04?
2) Is there a limit of sales order to be created in ONE Invoice? If there is, how much is the maximum limit?
3) If can, will there be any performance issue to the system? Waht are the impact that we should be aware of?
I've tested billing for lesser sales orders (execute VF04 for 5,427 s/orders only). However, the system still produce 2 Invoices and yet still has remaining 407 sales orders not processed.
i have read the discussion about Billing line item here Re: Maximum no of lines in the Invoice but the issue is still uncleared to me.
TQVM!
Haryati haronHie all.
My appology for the above post. I have double check the bill and found the split analysis as mentioned by G.
As this is my first time encounter the split scenario, would appreciate if anybody would share the knowledge on how to tackle my issue here. I found tHE split analysis as follows:
Split due to different header data
Fld Name 0300001429 0300001430
Country of Destination MY SG
Region (State, Province, Count SL SG
Country of Sales Tax ID Number MY SG
Reference Document Number 0300001429 0300001430
Payment Reference 0300001429 0300001430
1) All sales order's Sold-to-Party hardcoded to onely one customer - e.g 10919 but different Ship-to-Party
2) I assume that Country of Destn, Region and Country of Sls Tax Id data is taken from Customer master data but why does it takes Ship-to-Party customer master data? Can i change it to take Sod-to-party Master data?
3) I believe i need to change the Origin sls tax no from A (Ship-to-Part) to C (Sold-to-Party) but can anybody pls help pointing out the tcode or menu path to do so? (TQ!).
4) believe also should point #4 above be resolved, Ref Doc No. and Payment Ref No. will not be an issue anymore.
Appreciate any feedback.
TQVM!
