Sales order with milestone billing

Hi,
We are migrating sales orders with milestone billing to ECC 6.0 system. There are line items in the sales orders in the billing plan which have been completely billed. For line items which have not been billed, there is billing block which flows from the WBS element attached to the line item.
We want to transfer the sales orders to the new system with same status of billing completed for the line items for billing dates which have been billed. This will ensure that billing is not done again in the new system for these billing dates.
Kindly guide as to how we can achieve this.
Regards,
T Saravanan

Hi,
We are moving the orders from ECC 6.0 system to ECC 6.0 system only.
The challenge is to that customer wants the orders with milestones completely billied as it is in the system.
When we bring the orders to the new system, how to ensure this status for milestones which have already been billed.

Sales order with milestone billing in real estate scenario

dear Sir;
My client is in real estate buisness; typically the process is sales order-mile stone billing. my client requirement is that they wants to change the sales order value in between milestone.
for ex: if sales order value is Rs 100 and they done billing of Rs20 by milestone billing, they wish to change the order value to Rs 80.
currently we are following process like reversing all the billing doc and posting and change the sale order value and re billed it.
please suggest some suitable solution.

Down Payment processing for Sales orders using Milestone Billing Plan

Hi,
The business scenario is as follows.
The delivery for the sales orders are to be created only after the pre payment( a percentage of the total sales order value) is made by the customer.
Hence the sales orders while creation are blocked for delivery creation using credit block by means of a userexit.
The credit manager checks the blocked sales orders using VKM1 transaction and verify if there are any payments made by the customer to cover this pre payment to be made.
If it is enough to cover then he releases the sales order manually for delivery creation.This is a complex process since there are too many sales orders and the payments made by the customer may not match the amount to be paid(it can be greater or lesser).The customer just pays a huge amount which is to be distributed among the sales orders for pre payments.
Later, when the invoice is created, the customer account is cleared manually using F-32 transaction for the oldest open invoices.
Here again there is a huge manual effort involved since he need to distribute the amount against the invoices using oldest open item principle.
As a solution we are planning to implement "Down Payment processing for Sales orders using Milestone Billing Plan".
Is this the right solution?
Can you please give the steps in detail to implement this functionality for above scenario?
We are using SAP 4.7 version without Project Systems.
Thanks in advance.

One sales order with two bill to party at the document header

Hello to all
We have the following issue: create one sales order with two bill to party and only one payer. The reason is that the materials are paid with the same customer(only one account document) but we need to print two invoices one by each bill to party and each invoice printed with its own invoice number)
We are thinking in one development due to the key users won´t create different line items or create different sales order.
The process will be the following:
1-Create the sales order with one payer and two bill to party or a new bussiness partner(you can use only one bill to party in each customer)
2-Invoice the sales order. The system will create only one account document because there is only one payer but the system will create two printed documents with the invoice.
So if someone had the same requeriments, any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Pablo,
You intend to create one invoice (one payer) but 2 different document print layouts.
That should work. But, you have stated 'printed with its own invoice number'.... does this mean you need 2 distinct document numbers in the system? That will not be possible.
An alterantive is to create a Proforma invoice and a regular invoice and send it to the 2 parties involved.

Sales order with multiple billing doc's

HI Guys
My client has specific requirement related the freight charges .Freight charge is represented with a condition type in my pricing procedure. If a given sales order has multiple shipments (I.E deliveries) then this freight charge is getting calculated partially at item level and passing on to the   billing documents accordingly. Customers receive invoices with part of those charges. They will receive other parts with other shipments and invoices until sales order is completed
As per my clients business it would be more logical that Freight charges are invoiced on the first invoice. And not as parts in each billing doc
There are two things which are striking to my mind in terms of solution
1.   Since it’s only to do with showing the freight charges on the output sent to the customer. Is there any option to display the complete freight charges on the 1st billing doc’s output type? And restrict to display in the remaining billing doc of a given sales order. Any idea how to achieve it this way
2.   Can this be controlled with the help of copy controls between delivery and billing doc at an item category level .i hope there should be some standard routine in place if not what should be my logic in this routine that helps to accomplish this task
3.   Create a routine and assign it to the condition type ZMIN…Not sure what logic should I built in here to get the above requirement up and running
Please guide me a way forward on this……………..
Thanks for your support.
Will reward without fail …

Hi Madhu,
The billing document cannot be deleted. It can either be cancelled or a credit memo created with reference to it. You can also check in the same VBFA table, if for a billing document any cancellation exists. If yes, then, the delivery cost becomes relevant. Else it does not.
However, there could be a timing issue. Say if there are 3 deliveries and 2 of them are taken for billing at the same time in different sessions. (I am not sure if SAP will allow this because of the locking of VBAK table but still a possibility). Then, when the routine goes back to VBFA with the Sales order number, it does not find any billing document. So there is a chance that the freight charges may appear on both deliveries in full. So, you may want to test a few scenarios like this to make sure the logic is good and accommodates all scenarios.
Hope this helps.

1. Multiple Sales Orders with single billing .

Hi gurus,
I am doing in EC6. how can i get single billing document for multiple sales orders. please tellme that configuration settings i need to do.
I am wating for reply
Thanks and regards
DVSk

Hi,
Order-to-Bill Copy Control Settings are maintained in
T. Code: VTFA
But Header Data, say exchange rate differences or Payer or Terms of Payment, for both the Orders must be same in order to avoid Invoice split.
You may write routine, based upon your requirement in VOFM and attach it to Field: Data VBRK/VBRP (Under "Item" - left hand tree structure).
for your Order-toBill combination.

Calculate commission in Sales Order during milestone billing

Hi,
During milestone billing of a customer project, my client wants to track commission for engineers doing work on a project
but i'm not sure how to go about it. This is my scenario:
I have a fixed-price project of $200
The work is allocated to different engineers like so:
Engineer A is allocated 20% of the work on the project.... $200
Engineer B is allocated 30% of the work on the project .... $300
Engineer C is allocated 50% of the work on the project .... $500
The milestone billing is like so:
Bill the customer 25% during Phase 1 of the project (before any actual work is done)....$250
Bill the customer 50% during Phase 2 of the project ....$500
Bill the customer 25% during Phase 3 (final phase) of the project ...$250
During the lifetime of the project, the customer may get billed BEFORE any work has been done.
Or vice versa, the engineer may have done the work but my client hasn't billed the customer for that work.
However , if the engineer has done work for a particular month, my client needs to give him credit for the work that he has done (i.e. give him commission and pay him for it) EVEN if my client hasn't billed the customer for that work.
ex:
Month                               Bill customer                                             Allocated work (to Engineers)
June                                 $250 (Phase 1)                                        Engineer A does 20% of work....$200
July                                  $500 (Phase 2)                                        Engineer B does 30% of work....$300
August                              no billing                                                  Engineer C does 50% of work ......$500
September                       $250 (Phase 3)                                       no work to be done (project already finished)
total                                  $1000                                                       $1000
The problem is that i can only calculate the commission for an engineer during billing. BUT what happens when i haven't
billed the customer yet? I still want to give Engineer C credit for the work that he has done in August so that I can pay
him for his August work.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Error while creating the sales order with billing reference

hi alll
i am getting error while creating the sales order with billing reference.The line items are coming in grey.I am not able to change the items as well as the quantity field.Can u guide me
cheers
shalsa007........

Dear SAP SD 007
I can confidently tell that an enhancement or an user exit has been applied in your scenario
You have to check that
Normally when creating a sales order with respect or referring billing documents the qty will be in editable mode and it is standard problem
Your people has solved the standard problem by enhancement
Usually OR--LF-PGI----F2 (SAY THE QTY IS 25 UNITS)
Now you are creating returns order with reference to F2 in the return order type Re there is a standard issue that user can edit the qty to 30 from the original 25
To solve this only your people have used userexit
Line items and qty greyed out means definately there is some enhancement or user exit applied
You have to check that

Create Sales order with reference to a Billing Document - Net price issue

Hi Everyone,
The Billing Document has one line item with Net value of 16,000. However, when I create the Sales Order with reference to the Billing Document, the net price shows 64,000. When I check the Document flow of the Billing Document, there were two Contracts on top of my Billing Document. One is a contract with the overall status of "Being Processed" and this is where I checked the net value is 64,000. The next contract invoice is already completed (net value is 16,000).
Has anyone encounter such case? How would I be able to create the sales order with reference to the Billing document and have the net value of what is in the Billing Document (16,000). Which part of the configuration is setting this up. Thanks!

Hi,
This is a very rare case, if you are sure of the scenario, would suggest you two alternatives:
1) whenever you go against the flow of SAP, you have customize it, so its better you discuss this matter with your ABAP person.
2) never tried it out but you can:
you cannot see that in Billing Document that which is the sales document assigned to it, but to estblish that relationship,
we do copy control setting from Billing Document to Sales Order type (T.Code:VTFA).
Menupath: SPRO >> IMG >> Sales & Distribution >. sales >> Billing Document >> Copy Control >> Copy Control from Billing Document to Sales Order Type.
Hope this will help you.

ERP - SD Sales orders with billing plan (material number change appear)

Sales and Distribution.
Regarding sales orders with billing plan.
We create the sales order and create billing plan at header or item level.
We issue down payment request(s) upon receipt of sales order.
Often during the life time of the sales order one or more of the material numbers are changed after the down payment request(s) has been issued and paid by the client.
Our issue is that prior to changing the material number in the sales order we have to reverse the payment(s), reverse the down payment request(s) and after the material number change re-issue the down payment request(s) and register the payment again.
We wish to find a solution avoiding all the reversals.
If you have a similar situation please inform how to handle material number change in the sales orders with billing plan.
Best regards
Lise

Dear Consultor SD ,
There is no setting to create the invoice based on schedule line.
What you can possibly do is create multiple deliveries based on the schedule line and
then invoice the individual deliveries.
If you want system to split the deliveries based on schedule line, then you will have to include Schedule line also
in the COMBINATION REQUIREMENT in VTLA.

Sales Order with billing parcial

Dear friends,
We are having the need to build a scenario where we have a sale of a material is not storable. The sales document must be left open, and the billing should be partial.
I set up the following scenario:
I created a sales order, with schedule line with different dates.

01/09/2011 - 2 parts
02/09/2011 - 2 parts
03/09/2011 - 2 parts
04/09/2011 - 2 parts
When I billed the sales order, the amount that appears on the billing document is the total number of divisions 10 parts.
I need:
1) or the amount of billing respect the value and date of schedule line;
2) or the field of quantity amount in the billing document need to be opeen for change manually.
Anyone could help me to solve this scenario?
Thank you in advanced for your attention.
