PS: Activity Component Invoice Plan

Hy Experts,
1. Does anybody knows a BAdI related to the Invoice Plan creation for an activity component?
2. Have you ever seen a solution where the invoice plan was created automatically during transaction CJ20N or CN22?
Thanks
James

I believe you can assign an Invoicing Plan type to a network type, in which case the Invoicing Plan will be associated with the network. This is the IMG menu path: Project System -> Costs -> Planned Costs -> Automatic Costing in Networks/Activities -> Unit Costing -> Maintain Settings for Invoicing Plan.
Let me know how that goes and reward points if helpful.

Purchase invoice plan and PS

Hi all,
PS allows to manage sales invoice plan using milestone. Is there any object I can use to manage in the same way a purchase invoice plan directly in PS?
Thanks a lot.

In SPRO>PS>Costs->Planned cost->Automatic costing in network and activities--->Maintian settings for invoicing plan.
In CJ20N,
Select the externally procured material, Then
Edit->Component--->Invoicing Plan
Hope its useful.

Req date for an activity based on planned delivery time of component

Hi Experts
I wish to create activities for purchase and install an equipment.
The procurement activity is assigned with the component.
the planned delivery time is specifed (ex: 100 days)
Based on this value, can i get calculated the requirement date for the activity (Ex: today+100days) in stead of manual specification of date for the corresponding activity?
warm regards
ramSiva

Hi Ahmed
Thanks for your response. This seems to be good feature.
However, i could not get the date corrected for my activity after applying this function.
I have created an activity with normal duration 1day. For the same activity, i have assigned a compnent which has 100days planned del time.
Then i have used 'Transfer Del time --> duration'. But no change.
Could you suggest me right approach?
warm regards

Release Strategy Problem with Invoicing Plan

Hi ,
I am using Invoicing Plan for my framework orders at client side.But the release is getting activated at line item level and not at the total invoice level while i am creating a PO.
Eg. If the PO total value is 1000 Rs and the individal line item is 500 Rs then release is getting activated at 500 Rs and Not at 1000 Rs where as i want the release to be get activated at 1000 Rs.That is the total of all line items in PO.

Downpayment with Invoicing Plan

Hello all,
I'm trying to make a downpayment to a Vendor based upon a Purchase order (PO).
Here folows the procedure reflected on the system:
1)Creation of the PO with one valuated material (quantity and amount) item.
in the item invoice, we can have invoice plan based upon % or amount. Therefore,
in the logistics invoice the quantity is not verified.
2)Processing the downpayment by MIRO, it appears as a negative value because there is
no special GL indicator. I do know that by F-48 I can assign the downpayment to the PO.
But, the tricky procedure is that I can't settle a condition at item level in order to
consider it as the downpayment (profit to the vendor) and reduced for the total of invoices.
3)When I do Goods-receipt (GR), it increases the stock quantity but I can't see the finantial
documents related. If I want to enter the logistic invoice, there is no quantity to verify.
Only the ammount is possible to verify.
We would like to enter the Downpayment based on one invoicing plan, but with GR/IV flag active.
If we can be able to do this, everything will work properly as they use in the ancient system.
We can also use a finantial item in order to deturn this problem, but this doesn't compensate
the finantial open items (this means that he has the same sign " - ").
Can anyone help us to solve this problem?
Thank you in advance very much!
Best regards,
Pedro Grabulho.

Hi ,
I give my thoughts on this .
1) I agree that if use F-48 for down payment , u won;t be able to do at the line item level . But u are entering only the Purchase order number as reference and there is no provision for line item . In this case also system won;t allow you to make payment beyond the purchase order value.
2) Once GR Based IV is flagged in the PO , it is not advisable to use MIRO for down payment.

Mani

The total of the sum is greater than the PO line item
But after the f-47 and f-48 and miro for actual mile stone the partial invoicing plan is not coming gray.

Thanking you

Dear sir;
First of all thank you for your kind reply , I have first created On PO like below for example.
total amount 8,000.00 Rs

12 30.00% 2,400.00
13 30.00% 2,400.00
40.00% 3,200.00
PO is linked with project activity ,whenever the project person accept the activity in the PO invoicing plan, the line item status is unlocked ,and then I directly i go for MIRO,the amount is taking automatically percentage wise ,but when I go for the advance payment with F-47 & F-48 the vale I have to enter maually and after MIRO .How to solve the problem .
Thanking you

Invoice Planning: Allowing ERS vendor

Hi,
We have implemented Invoice planning. Making our supplier an ERS vendor prevents us from doing the normal procurement process for using the supplier as they are an ERS vendor.
The process of activating the ERS for the sake of using invoice planning, and deactivating for the sake of doing normal procurement is not feasible for us.
How do we use the same vendor for both Invoice planning or ERS and normal procurement (MIRO) processes?
thanks

Hi
you should use vendor subrange. You can see vendor subrange in purchasing view addition data.
Define two subranges. You will have two sets of purchasing data like order currency, ERS tick, schema. etc.
Then you can have two info records based on vendor subrange. So that same vendor you have for ERS and other procurement. It will solve your problem.
See this link for more information on vendor subrange

Chnage log for Invoicing Plan

HI Friends ,
Need your help on the below issue
We are making a customised PO change report
We want to capture the details which was done in Invoicing Plan in PO line item
I tried chaging the Invoicing plan in PO line item but the change log does not show that the chnages are done in Invoicing plan
How to know from PO change report that a invoicing plan has been changed ? Which tables to be seen
I checked the FPLA and FPLT table but not getting any clue on change log for invoicing plan
Please help
Thx
Deva

Hi,
unfortunately there is no change log kept in the standard for the tables FPLA and FPLT. Please check in transaction SE11:
Display technical settings -> "Log data changes".
The logging flag defines whether changes to the data records of a table should be logged. If logging is activated, every change (with UPDATE, DELETE) to an existing data record by a user or an application program is recorded in a log table in the database.
Unfortunately I can only confirm that there is missing functionality
for change management in area of MM invoicing plan. No change documents
are created in CDHDR and CDPOS tables for any change for invoicing
plan.

How can I settle invoicing plan with defining withholding TAX Parameter

Dear All
         Please kindly help me to answer this question, How can I settle invoicing plan with defining withholding TAX Parameter.
I've already create PO Framework Order by specify Invoicing Plan Periodic automatic settlement.
        But, We can found with holding tax parameter on the tab of invoicing plan in PO.
       Please help me.

Hi,
From my understandinging in case of withholding tax there is no provision to manage from procurement side.
At the time of MIRO or payment run users have to select the applicable
withholding tax code ( During MIRO withholding tax pop up will appear).
Withholding tax is a component within FI: FI-AP-AP-Q

Multiple account assignment in invoicing plan

We are using Invoicing plan and activated multiple account assignment in the "account assignment category config". in ECC 6.0
Following are the scenarios and issues.
1. An invoice is posted through MRIS (Invoicing Plan Settlement) with one account assignment only.--- the systems posts the invoices correctly.
2. Change account assignment to multiple lines .e.g. two GL accounts with 60% and 40% -- Upon running MRIS, The system posts invoices 80% and 20%.
3. Continue next period with MRIS, and the system posts correctly i.e 60% and 40% as per PO .
4. If the account assignment is not changed there after, the system posts correctly.
We found in the debug mode the system calculates the split by way of taking into account the values in the PO history, and the previous items in the invoicing plan.
Is there any way we can achive the desired split account after the first invoice is posted with single account assignmetn?
p.s. If we split the account assignment prior to the first invoice is posted, there is no issue.

B.K.
I need the user exit in the SES no in the PO.
Thanks,

Purchase Order with Invoice Plan

Hi,
I need to understand working with Invoicing plans for a Purchase Order. Especially the service PO for the rents and other related services.
How the PO is linked to the Invoice Plan and how the process happens in SAP?
Thanks in advance!

Creating an Invoicing Plan
The following procedure describes how to create an invoicing plan with the pre-Enjoy ordering transactions (ME21, ME22, ME23).
The procedure described is also applicable u2013 with certain restrictions u2013 to the Enjoy purchase order (ME21N, ME22N, ME23N).
If you are using the Enjoy purchase order, you will find:
·         The Invoicing Plan button and the indicators for GR-based invoice verification (GR-Based IV), service-based invoice verification (Srv.-Based IV), evaluated receipt settlement (ERS), and invoice receipt (Inv. Receipt) among the item details on the Invoice tab page.
·         The account assignment among the item details on the Account Assignment tab page
·         The Goods Receipt and GR Non-Valuatedindicators among the item details on the Delivery tab page
Prerequisites
Vendor Master Record
Before you can use the invoicing plan with automatic settlement, the Evaluated Receipt Settlement Delivery indicator must be set on the Purchasing Data screen in the vendor master record.
(If you wish to enter invoicing dates manually, this is not necessary.)
Purchase Order
●     We recommend using a framework order (that is a purchase order with a validity period and a reason for rejection). The invoicing plan can adopt the validity period specified in the PO header.
●     PO items for which you wish to use an invoicing plan must have account assignment irrespective of whether a material with a master record, a material described by a short text, or an external service is involved.
●     The GR/IR control facility must be set up in such a way that no goods receipt (or, in the case of services, no service entry) is expected - only an incoming invoice. If you wish to have automatic settlement, you must also set the Evaluated Receipt Settlement indicator.
If you nevertheless wish to allow service entry sheets for the item (e.g. for information purposes only), you must set the GR Non-Val. indicator.
Customizing
Under Purchase Order à Invoicing Plan in Customizing for Purchasing, you can maintain data such as the desired invoicing plan types, date categories, and date descriptions.
Procedure
       1.      Create a purchase order with account assignment (framework order).
Click to access the item overview (or the overview of service lines if you chose item category D for services).
       2.      Enter the desired material or service, the quantity, and the price.
       3.      Select the desired item and click Account Assignments to access the account assignment screen. Enter the account assignment for this item.
       4.      Click to access the item detail screen. Check that the GR/IR control indicators are set correctly on the item detail screen.
○     The GR and GR-Based Invoice Verification or Service-Based Invoice Verification indicators must not be set.
○     IR must be set.
○     You must set ERS if you wish to have Evaluated Receipt Settlement.
○     If you wish to have service entry sheets purely for information, for example, allow non-valuated goods receipt (i.e. select the GR Non-Val and GR indicators).
       5.      Choose Item ® Invoicing Plan. A window appears, in which the invoicing plan types predefined in Customizing are suggested. Choose the desired invoicing plan type and click Continue.
You can use the following invoicing plan types:
○     Periodic Invoicing Plan
■      You use the periodic invoicing plan if the total value of the PO item is to be invoiced in each period.
■      The system creates the invoicing dates automatically on the basis of the settings in Customizing.
■      The invoicing date and the amount to be invoiced are shown for each settlement period (e.g. month). In the case of the periodic invoicing plan, the amount represents the total value of the PO item.
■      You can change the suggested dates and block individual dates for automatic invoicing if necessary.
■      You can enter the start and end dates for the invoicing plan.
■      With the Dates from and Dates to fields, you can determine that an invoicing plan does not contain invoicing dates extending over the entire validity period of the purchase order but only for a certain period within that validity period. (E.g. within a validity period from 1.1. to 12.31, only dates within the period 1.1. to 06.30.)
■      With the Horizon field, you control how far into the future dates can be created. If you enter a date rule that adds six months to the current date here, invoicing dates will be created for just half a year in advance in each case.
The system automatically creates new dates if you change the invoicing plan or when you invoke the transaction for Updating Periodic Invoicing Plans. See Generating Further Invoicing Plan Dates
■      The In Advance indicator allows you to specify whether the invoice is to be created with regard to a prior or subsequent period. (E.g. at the beginning of February, either in advance for the month of February or in arrears for the month of January).
■      In addition, fields with information on the existing invoicing plan are displayed (e.g. the calendar upon which the date determination process is based).
○     Partial Invoicing Plan
■      You use the partial invoicing plan if the total value of the PO item is to be invoiced in several partial amounts.
■      You get an empty date overview in which you can manually enter the desired dates.
■      If you work with a reference invoicing plan, the system automatically generates dates in accordance with the reference plan.
You have the following options:
●      You create a reference invoicing plan in Customizing for the invoicing plan type.
●      You enter an existing invoicing plan as reference plan directly in the invoicing plan for the PO item.
■      You can flag a date in field B (Billing/Invoicing Rule) as follows:
●      As a down payment (percentage or value)
●      As an invoicing date (percentage or value)
●      As a final invoice
       6.      Click to return to the item overview.
       7.      Click to save the purchase order item with the invoicing plan.
You can then start the automatic invoice creation process during invoice verification.
For more information, refer to the section Settlement of Amounts Due Under Invoicing Plans.
Once assigned to an item, the invoicing plan type (e.g. partial invoicing plan) cannot be changed. If you wish to assign a different invoicing plan type, you must delete the item and create a new one.
Generating Further Invoicing Plan Dates
If you have assigned a periodic invoicing plan to a PO item but have not initially defined invoicing dates covering the entire validity period of the purchase order, you can generate further dates in due course.
You have created a PO item with a periodic invoicing plan for a certain planned procurement. The purchase order is valid from 1.1. to 12.31. When creating the invoicing plan, you specified one invoicing date per month for the first half of the year. You have not yet planned any dates for the second half of the year because you do not wish information from the invoicing plan to be passed on to purchase order commitments at this stage, for example.
By mid-June, it is clear that the PO is to proceed as envisaged, and you therefore wish to schedule invoicing dates for the remainder of its validity period.
Procedure
To schedule further invoicing dates, proceed as follows:
Choose Purchase order ® Follow-on functions ® Period. invoicing plan
Specify the purchase orders for which invoicing dates are to be generated in the invoicing plan and perform the function.
A log can be created if desired.
Result
The system adds further dates on the basis of information such as the validity period or horizon from Customizing, the purchase order, and the invoicing plan.

indranil

Creation of invoicing plan while creating the PO using BAPI_PO_CREATE1

Have you tried filling up the invoicing plan related tables of the bapi ?

Invoicing Plan Net Value not equals to Ordered Value

Dear Xperts,
Need your advice.
Is it SAP standards, when an invoicing plan BPO is created with reference to an outline agreement the net value at the outline agreement (header statistic) is taken from the BPO net value (Quantity X Price) NOT BPO ordered value (Quantity X Price X Months).
Scenario Simulated:
(1)     Contract Detail (value contract)
Target Value = RM12,000 (price RM1000 ; 12 months validity)
(2)     Purchase Order
Quantity = 1 pcs ; Price = RM1000 ; Invoicing Plan = 12 months
Ordered Value = RM 12,000
Net Value = RM1000
As a result the utilization value (contract header statistic) is:
Target Value : RM12,000
Net Value : RM1000.
This will lead to a misleading info of utilization value of the contract.
Your experts explaination is highly appreciated.

Anybody?

Auto release of Invoicing plan item when milestone actual date is entered

Hi all,
I wonder if anyone can help me on this. I have configured the system to automatically release an invoicing plan in a PO once the milestone attached to that invoicing plan is confirmed in the project by entering the actual date. For some reason though, when trying to enter the invoice for this item in MIRO, the amount from the invoicing plan is not copied. The amount only gets copied if you enter the PO in change mode after confirmation of milestone, display the invoice plan for each item then save before exitting. It is only after this that the block on the item is removed. Is this supposed to be so? I would have thought immediately after confirmation of milestone by indication of actual date, the block on the invoicing plan will be immediately be removed so the invoice can immediately copy the amounts from the PO? Any ideas how to achieve this? (GR is not a part of the process).

Hi,
Go through this link. Might be helpful.
