Mile stone billing with Down payment clearing

Hi,
Urgent help needed.
I need to set up mile stone billing plan at item level with down payment getting automatically offset with Invoice
ie,
I have 10% down payment (FAZ).
And mile stone invoicing of 40% and 60% each.
I have raised down payment request and the incoming payment is posted.
Now, when I raise the invoices, I want the down payment received auotomatically deducted from the invoice amount and shown as separate line item in the invoice. What settings need to be done?
ie, if 10000 EUR is the total amount, down payment is 1000 EUR.
My first invoice should show 4000 - 400 = 3600 EUR due from the cutomer and second invoice shud have 6000-600=5400 EUR due.
The item category is ZTAO
I have maintained the following settings:
1. Condition type AZWR in the pricing procedure with requirement as 2 (item with pricing) and the calculation formula 48
2. Copy control set up for Order type TA with billing type FAZ for the item category ZTAO with Copying requirement 20
3. Copy control set up for Order type TA with billing type F2 for the item category ZTAO with Copying requirement 23
But the invoice is not showing the down payment amount. Can any one tell me what is that I am missing? This is in ECC6.0
Thank You,
Resmi.

Hiya...
Billing Plan for Milestone Billing
Milestone billing means distributing the total amount to be billed over multiple billing
dates in the billing plan.
As each milestone is successfully reached, the customer is billed either a percentage of
the entire project cost or simply a pre-defined amount.
During sales order processing, the system determines from the item category whether a
billing plan is required and, if so, which type of plan
The type of billing plan that is determined at this point is set up in Customizing and
cannot be changed in the sales document.
Billing plans for periodic billing and milestone billing plans for project-related milestone
billing have different overview screens so that you can enter data relevant to your
processing.
For example, for milestone billing, you must be able to enter data to identify the
individual milestones.
IMG configuration requires :-
1. Maintain billing plan types for milestone billing in OVBO.
2. Define date description in SM30 - V_TVTB.
3. Maintain Date Category for Billing Plan Type IN OVBJ.
4. Allocate date category in SM30 - V_TFPLA_TY.
5. Maintain date proposal for Billing Plan Type in OVBM.
6. Assign Billing Plan Type to Sales Documents Type in OVBP.
7. Assign Billing Plan Type to Item Categories in OVBR.
8. Define rules for determining the date in OVBS.
Milestone billing is typically used for billing projects, such as plant engineering and
construction projects. Such projects often include a series of milestones that mark the
completion of different stages of the work. In the SAP R/3 System, milestones are defined
in a network along with planned and actual dates for the completion of work. The milestones
are also assigned to the billing dates in the billing plan.
Each milestone-related billing date is blocked for processing until the Project System
confirms that the milestone is completed.
Delivery-relevant order items for which a milestone billing plan applies are billed on the
basis of the requested delivery quantity and not on the total of the confirmed quantities.
The connection between the project and the sales document item is made in the individual
schedule lines of the item. Each schedule item can be assigned to a network in a project.
To display the project-related data for a schedule line, proceed as follows:
In one of the overview screens of the sales document, select
1. Item -> Schedule lines.
2. Mark the schedule line and select Procurement details.
The following figure shows an example of milestone billing where only the Contract have
been billed :
Order Item Turbine    100,000
Billing Plan
Billing date Description    % Value Billing Block   Milestone   Billing Status
01-10-94     Contract      10 10,000      -             x           x
01-03-95     Assembly      30 30,000      x             x
01-04-95     Maintenance   30 30,000      x             x
01-05-95     Acceptance    30 30,000      x             x
01-06-95     Final invoice ..    ..        x
Network/Activities
Milestone    Estimate      Actual
Assembly     01-03-95      01-03-95
Maintenance 01-04-95
Acceptance   01-05-95
For each billing date in a milestone billing plan, you can specify whether the billing
date is:
1. fixed
2. always updated with the actual date of the milestone
3. updated with the actual date of the milestone, if the date is earlier than the
    planned billing date for the date
Keep Sapping

payment terms
--> Foreign trade data
--> Payee Inco terms
--> Payer
System Where it control for diff lie items.
Thanks
Sriram
Hi sriram
As each line item is having 7milestones then make sure that the billing date should be same.You might have maintained separated billing dates for three billing items that is the reason it is showing 3 items dates
Because of the following parameters billing split will take place
--> Check the Billing date
--> payment terms
--> Foreign trade data
--> Payee Inco terms
--> Payer

Mile stone billing with partial quantity.

Hi,
We are facing problem in the milestone billing. we have scenario where we have payment terms (Ex: 10% advance, 70% on delivery, 10% on installation and remaining 10% on completion) with the materials having multiple quantity. Delivery will be in partial, so except the advance invoice all the remaining invoice require change in the billing quantity before billing, but in the system billing quantity showing in gray mode. After delivery also remaining (10% installation) also will be on different quantity i.e. actually installed at the site.
As per the law invoicing has to be done with in the 14 days of the installation of the work, once the installation over for partial quantity we required to do the invoice irrespective of the delivered quantity.
In the system if we do the invoice for the total quantity at the time advance after that we are unable to change the invoice quantity in the subsequent invoices.
Please suggest us how to make enable the billing quantity field in case of milestone billing.
Ex: let us say sales order is created for qty 10 with the value of 1,00,000.00 as payment terms as follows.
10% Advance, 70% on delivery, 10% on installation, 10% final completion.
First we have raised the 10% advance invoice using 1st milestone with the total quantity.
When we deliver, we deliver only partial quantity i.e. qty. 5, so we have to create the invoice for (50,000-5,000) Rs 45,000. But when we create the second invoice we are unable to change the billing quantity. Same way when we create the third invoice after installation we may have to bill for qty. 3 if only 3 machines are installed out of 5 delivered, so again we require the quantity change.

Upendra

MILESTONE BILLING- Mile stone assigned to multiple sales orders

Hi,
My user has sales order in which he has used Mile stone billing
The Billing is being done in two shots - 60% once and the second time 40%
60% has already been invoiced and the 40% is creating a problem and they want the sales order to be closed
In one of the custom reports- it says that the 40% (mile stone number) is assigned to multiple sales orders and so the sales order cannot be confirmed
I am totally new to SD and so request to kindly explain high level concept and also provide the solution
Thanks,
SS

Mile stone Confirmation

Dear All
I am facing a typical problem as given below
In production order there are 2 PP operations and 1 QM operation Like below
10 operation            PP Operation with Mile stone control Key
20 operation            QM Operation with Mile stone control Key
30 operation            PP Operation with Mile stone control Key
My Problem is that when users are confirming 30th operation 20 is also automatically confirmed (Which should not be as it itself is milestone)
How to rectify that problem. My requirment is that 20th operation should not confirm while confirming 30th operation and i cannot remove milestone from 30the operation also.
If 20th operation is not at all confirmed then 30 cannot be confirmed but if 20 is PCNF then 30 can be confirmed and with that rest of the quantity of 20 is also confirmed
Pl.Help
Edited by: vishnu agarwal on Mar 2, 2009 11:26 AM

Dear Vishnu,
This is obvious std behaviour by system because when you confirm any milestone operation system will confirm all preceding milestones automatically.
for more details you go through the following link :

Hope this clears your doubt.

Question regarding shipping and billing

scenario question:
i create a sales order for a 1000 qty, but i want to deliver 1200, can i adjust the quantity on the delivery document? will the system accept the change? and what happens with the extra 200 i want to send? how would i bill this? the billing document is based on the sales order or delivery document?
thanks!

can i adjust the quantity on the delivery document?
Though this is possible as already suggested and of course, stock is made available to that extent, what is the need to do so ?? As for as possible, please stick to the standard procedures which would be sale order quantity should always be either equal or less than the order quantity. Of course there are some exceptions in case of petroleum industry.
the billing document is based on the sales order or delivery document?
Your comments, I believe yours is a delivery based sales scenario in which case, you should maintain copy control for delivery to billing in VTFL.
thanks
