Requirement of invoice list in case of a proforma invoice generation.

Dear Experts,
I have a case where the customer is indulged with the export sales & he had delivered the excisable goods to his customer (or we can also consider it under STO as one of the above case) & wants to arise a proforma invoice in context to this transaction with the delivery document being taken as the reference document in the billing screen VF01; where, as I have already mentioned that the PGI has been done. Now the problem is this that the billing document is not getting generated with an information log that, '_The invoice list cannot be determined_'. Now I am not able to understand that why this is happening? This was the delivery related with a single line item.
I went for changing the billing relevance field at VOV7 from 'A' to 'J' & even tried by changing the copying requirement from '010' to '311' at VTFL, from LF to F8 (as this is normally followed during the issue of free samples & subseqyent free of charge deliveries); but was not able to get the required output.
What to do? Kindly assist.
With regards,
M.S.Kumar.

1) The document flow is like this that between the two plants for e.g. 1000 & 1100 under the same company code the stock transfer needs to take place.
2) Plant 1000 is devoid of the required amount of stock, hence it raised an enquiry for the aforesaid amount of stock with plant 1100
3) Plant 1100 confirmed the availability of stock
4) Plant 1000 raised a purchase order with plant 1100
5) Plant 1100 raised the sales order for the required quantity of stock with plant 1000, & has done the PGI under delivery.
6) Now the plant 1100 wants to raise one proforma invoice with respect to the delivery of goods being done to the corresponding plant 1000 & one commercial invoice for the payments to be made.
7) The processing from raising the purchase order to the delivery of the goods to the respective plant has already being performed.
8) At the moment of creating the proforma invoice with billing type F8, the system is throwing an error message that it is not able to generate the billing document because of the reason that the invoice list date cannot be determined.
or else in the other way, in simple manner what needs to be done when simply the billing document is not getting generated in context to a delivery document because of the reason that the invoice list date could not be determined. Does this have to do anything with the POD time frame or the pricing conditions being defined under the pricing procedure which has not been followed upon while processing the sales order?

Invoice List Pro Forma

I would like to create a new billing type : Invoice List Pro Forma because I do not want this document to update FI.
I have tried in the customizing SD Document categorie VBTYP = 3 "Invoice List" and transaction group = 8 "Proforma Invoices" but it doesn't work.
In fact I would like my SD Document categorie to be 3 "Invoice List" with the FI behaviour of 8 "Pro forma invoice".
How can I do this ?
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,

Hi,
I think you can achieve this by assigning the document type DF-Free Invoices and also check the posting block indicator for LR Invoice list document.

Invoice List no is Replacing - Billing doc no in A/cing doc

Dear All
We are In process to Implement the Foreign Trade Export/Import in our
company as per our user requirement users need the Invoice List to be
generated for commercial invoice ( VF21). We have configured Invoice
List in our QAS system.
While testing the same ,we found that the Invoice List
number is showing in FBL5N report as Reference to Accounting Document. ( this is disturbing our existing process) please suggest us the best way to achieve this.
before creating the Invoice list, the Billing document is showing in
FBL5N report as Reference to Accounting Document.
Thanks and Regards,
MH

Dear MH,
Reference document in accounting document depends on copy control settings maintained between delivery - Billing doc @ Header level.
In your case, check the copy control Tx: VTFF between Billing doc - Invoice list doc @ Header level in reference document filed.
maintain reference doc as " current doc / billing doc"- will confirm with the actual value & update the forum.

Report : invoice list

hi
In my function specs
1) pass vbeln to vbpa, partner role = 'WE' & 'RG' and get the ship-to-party and payer (kunnr) from vbpa table for each billing document from the first line item of the invoice. if ship-to-party code is entered in selection screen the retain records where ship to party = ship to party in selection screen.
2) if radio button is :
"invoice list is generated " then
check if invoice list is generated by passing vbeln to vbrl table where vbeln=vbrl-vbelen_vf.
retain records which are not found in vbrl table.
i already declared radio button i want coding for the above two points.
thanks

You may have to refer the following table -
EKBE (Field - PO number, Material document field will give GR / IR number both with PO history category field with value E & Q, Posting date of Invoice, Material)
You may have to use table EKPO/MARA for bringing the material group.
You may have to use table EKKO for bringing the vandor field.
I hope it clarifies your requirement.
If it gices you valuable input...i would appreciate if you reward the answer with appropriate points.

Invoice List

11.11.2008
Hi Gurus,
a) Does combining of invoices into invoice lists follow the same requirement that the header details should be same in all the invoices to be combined ?
My requirement is creation of invoice lists of multiple invoices of a customer irrespective of the header details i.e Division, Partners, Assignment number ..... These could be different.
Is it possible to combine such invoices??? If so what changes needs to be carried out.???
b) Am i right in concluding there is going to be no accounting entry when an invoice list is generated.
Please share your valuable knowledge.
Sanjay

Hi Sanjay
In Invoice list Payer is same for all invoice ,so for that payer a list of Invoices are sent.
When Head office of an organisation makes the payment for all its branches, instead of sending individual invoices, an "Invoice list" is sent to the Headoffice (PAYER).
Invoice list is of two types .They are LR and LG.
Under LR type Invoice list, all receiviable type of billing document like Invoice(F2) or F1 etc, Debit memo(L2) are listed.
Whereas under LG type of Invoice list, all payable type of billing documents like Credit memo (G2) and Cancellation(S1) are listed.
In the billing type (VOFA), you will find a field called "Invoice list type".
In this field appropriate Invoice list type is filled for respective Billing documents.
For example, if you go to F2, you will find value LR as F2 is a receiviable type of Billing document and so on.
So here, there is no other criterias except PAYER is one for all the branches, that means in the master data head office must have been assigned as their Payer.

Adding fields in EDI output of Invoice List

Hi!
I am trying to find out what is a process of adding fields in EDI output of Invoice List...
I mean that I need to add some extra fields to Invoice lists.
The information I have is: name of Form, print program and output type.
I guess I need to modify printing program, is it a correct way to go?
Hope to avoid modifying of print form...
Will reward,
Mindaugas.

I did not work on invoice list EDI,but i have done invoice.
First you need to look at segment,if you want to add new fileds in output,then you need to create segment at WE31 Transaction.
now create idoc type based on invoice idoc type ( WE30) here you need to use ur segment.
Idoc has function module
outbound - FM will start IDOC_OUTBOUND_inv*
Inbound - FM will Start IDOC_INBOUND_INV*
in the FM,you will have user exit ,populate ur fields in user exit.
Configuration :
1 create or maintain logical system - SALE
2. Create RFC Destination - Sm59
3. Create port - WE21 - ( EDI - Port is FILE)
6.Maintain partner profile - WE20 ( Give all required details like message type,idoc type)
IDOC Status - WE02 or WE05
Status Record - WE47
Change pointer - BD52
Message type : WE81
Assign message type to idoc WE82
finally when you create invoice list and output type medium is 6 then output will go to other system as text file.
Note : Please maintain message control in Partner profile.

Condition type used for invoice list

Hello Gurus,
following condition type used for invoice list, why do they exit in invoice list:
RL00 MW15. LR00 RD01

Hi,
Please go through the below document
When you work with invoice lists, you need to be familiar with the following concepts:
Prerequisites for invoice lists
Relationship to Pricing
Structure of an Invoice List
Changing header and item data
Integration with financial accounting (FI)
Prerequisites
You can only process invoice lists if the following prerequisite data is defined by your system administrator in Customizing for Sales:
Condition type RL00 (factoring discount) must be maintained and, if required, also the condition type MW15.
An invoice list type must be assigned to each billing type that you want to process in invoice lists. The standard version of the SAP R/3 System includes two types of invoice lists: LR for invoices and debit memos, LG for credit memos.
Copying requirements must be defined (for example, the payer, terms of payment and other fields that must be identical in the documents to be included in the invoice list)
In addition, before you process an invoice list, you must maintain the following master data:
A customer calendar must be defined, specifying the time intervals or dates on which invoice lists are to be processed.
The customer calendar must be entered in the Billing Sales Area view of the customer master record.
Pricing condition records for the condition type RL00 and, if necessary, (e.g. in Germany) the condition type MW15 must be maintained.
Output condition records for condition types LR00 and RD01 must be created.
Relationship to Pricing
The system processes factoring discounts in invoice lists in exactly the same way as other kinds of pricing elements. The data for the factoring discount is stored in condition records. Controlling during document processing is carried out via condition types, pricing procedures and access sequences. This control data is defined in Customizing for Sales by your system administrator.
For further information, see Conditions and Pricing.
Structure of an Invoice List
An invoice list represents an individual billing document. It consists of a document header and document items. Each item represents a billing document that you have included in the invoice list. The header contains an overview of summary information, such as the net value of all documents in the invoice list, the value of the factoring discount, details of taxes, and so on. It also contains information on partners and output.
Changing Header and Item Data
You can change some of the header data - for example, the billing date - when you process the invoice list. You can change an item - either an individual or collective invoice - and display document details. However, you cannot change any data in individual billing documents once they are part of an invoice list.
It is possible, however, to make certain global changes to output in all items in an invoice list.
For further information on output, see Communication in Sales and Distribution Processing.
Integration With Financial Accounting (FI)
The documents that you want to combine within an invoice list must already have been billed and forwarded to Financial Accounting. Here the billing documents intended for an invoice list are blocked for normal dunning transactions.
The dunning block on FI documents is lifted as soon as you create an invoice list and transfer it to FI . The system then calculates the new dunning date for the invoice on the basis of the invoice list date.
In addition, the system enters invoice list numbers in the FI documents as reference numbers. Invoice list numbers can then be entered for incoming payments.
When you save the invoice list, the system automatically creates an accounting document for the factoring discount and possible taxes and posts it to the corresponding G/L account in FI.

Murthy

Invoice list cancellation

Dear All,
We have two issues when we would like to cancel an invoice list:
1- The cancellation document type (copied from the original billing type LRS - credit memo list - in transaction VOFA) doesn't reverse the FI posting in the generated accounting document. How we can correct that ?
2- When the invoice list is cancelled (vf26), the individual invoices contained in that cancelled invoice list are no retrieved again in the work list of transaction vf24 !
Thank you very much for your help !
Moez

Hi...
This issue may be related to copy control settings "Billing document to billing document", the transaction code is VTFF. Kindly check the Pos./neg. quantity field in header and item. It should be maintained as " - " in this case. Check the settings.
Thanks

Can old billing documents be relevant for invoice list?

Hi,
I have checked this forum for posts on Invoice List. But I could not find a solution for the issue we are facing -
We have already gone live with SAP. We are creating regular invoices for our customers.
Now, some of our customers need an invoice list. Hence, we have set up the configuration now and it is working fine.
Question - some of the invoices have been created before invoice list was implemented. These old invoices are not relevant for Invoice list (vbuk-relik).
Is there a way to make these old invoices relevant for Invoice List, so that I can add them to this month's invoice list?

Your post is not clear to me. You mean to say some billing documents were generated in SAP for which, the document type for Invoice List is not set in configuration? If that is the case and you changed the configuration, then it is not possible with normal circumstances. You can try with USEREXIT_VKDFS_SORTKRI_BIL which is used for Invoice List where you can force those billing documents.

How to create Invoice list??

Hi guyz,
could you please tell me how to create invoice list, i have created sales order, done the delivery,created billing.
appreciate immediate reply.
Thanks.
Mohammed.

Hi Mohammed,
To create an invoice list:
Select the Billing screen.
Depending on the number of billing documents that you want to include, you can choose one of two ways to create the invoice list. You can either
· Select Invoice list Create and enter each billing document separately
· Create a list for all billing documents that are relevant for the invoice list. You can then process the work list for invoice lists.
This procedure shows you how to create the work list.
Select Invoice list Edit work list.
Enter your selection criteria and press ENTER.
The system displays a list of billing documents that meet your selection criteria.
Select the billing documents that you want to include in the invoice list and select Invoice list Save.
You can also simulate creation of invoice lists via the work list for invoice lists. This is useful as a test option. The simulation also allows you to carry out a split analysis, which shows you why billing documents are written to different invoice lists (e.g. due to different payers).
Prerequisites
You can only process invoice lists if the following prerequisite data is defined by your system administrator in Customizing for Sales:
Condition type RL00 (factoring discount) must be maintained and, if required, also the condition type MW15.
An invoice list type must be assigned to each billing type that you want to process in invoice lists. The standard version of the SAP R/3 System includes two types of invoice lists: LR for invoices and debit memos, LG for credit memos.
Copying requirements must be defined (for example, the payer, terms of payment and other fields that must be identical in the documents to be included in the invoice list)
In addition, before you process an invoice list, you must maintain the following master data:
A customer calendar must be defined, specifying the time intervals or dates on which invoice lists are to be processed.
The customer calendar must be entered in the Billing Sales Area view of the customer master record.
Pricing condition records for the condition type RL00 and, if necessary, (e.g. in Germany) the condition type MW15 must be maintained.
Output condition records for condition types LR00 and RD01 must be created.
Hope with this info you can do it. Pl. reward if it helps.
Thanks & Regards

Invoice List Split - pricing procedure

Hi,
Please help.
We do not want to maintain the factoring discount for Invoice list.
We are combining the invoices , Debit memos, inv cancellations in the invoice list type LR. But we have different pricing procedure for invoices and debit memos. As a result the invoice list splits because of different pricing procedures. To avid split based on the pricing procedure, created a routine (data in VBRK/VBRP) and reset the pricing procedure field(VBRk-KALSM).
So the LR invoice will have pricing procedure as blanks. Please advise if this will have any other implications and also please guide the correct way of doing it.
Thank You.

Hi
Well split can be avoided by user exit which exist at transaction VOFM look into this and get billing exits to avoid the split. There may be some condition at billing comment it as you dont need to split at billing. PLs do this appropriately as else you may stop the process. Anymore pls shoot me with the code you have done.
so it can be well avoided with user exit.
Cheers
AnthonyM

Invoice cancellation out of Invoice List

Hi!
As per std SAP invoice list processing, all invoices will go in one invoice list. How can I delete a specific invoice out of invoice list?
Thanks.
Thomas

Hi ,
As per std SAP, once the invoice list is created, it is not possible to delete specific invoice out of invoice list.
You can cancel entire invoice list and create new invoice list excluding the specific invoice. Also there is simulation option available for creation of invoice lists via the work list for invoice lists.
Hope this will help.
Thanks,
sanjay

Hi Laxmipathi sir,
as you said i went in the bussiness area account assignment and checked it and foound that the Sales area, distributin channel and division are assiogned to rule called 003 -Buss Area Det.from sales org/dist.channel item div.
but there are other two.which were not assigned.
001-buss area det.from plant/dividion(T134G)
002-buss area det.from Sales area (TVTA).
so do you think this is the reason it is not picking it up in the invoice list,
i have discussed with one of the SD person here he said even though you don't assign them it shoudn't bother because the buss area is getting picked in invoice
so could you please tell me what should i ask that person or what i have to tell them about this.
thanks
Jay
