Self billing invoice with input tax code

Hello experts,
we are currently trying to implement a billing procedure with credit memos within the module SD. In this set-up the recipient of a service (company using the SAP) creates a credit memo for the renderer of a service (a debitor in SAP) showing the amount the recipient of the service/product has to pay. The credit memo will also show VAT (we currently only try to implement a process for transaction within Germany, no cross-border transactions yet). For the recipient of the service (= issuer of the credit memo) the credit memo is similar to an incoming invoice (self billing invoice). Hence, the shown VAT on this credit memo - if all other requirements are met - can be treated as deductible input tax.
In order to automatically process the credit memo correctly as incoming invoice it has to be linked to a tax code (Steuerkennzeichen) with tax type "V" (=input tax) (Vorsteuerkennzeichen). To achieve that we have created a new condition record (Konditionssatz) that performs that task.
So currently we create a credit memo request (Gutschriftsanforderung) which is linked to an input tax code (Vorsteuerkennzeichen) via mentioned condition record. We then create the billing document. During creating the billing document an accounting document should also be created. But that is where our approach does not work properly. The system creates a billing document (credit memo) but does not create the corresponding accounting document. We receive the error message:
Document .... saved (no accounting document generated)
Message no. VF050
When trying to release the document to FI via Transaction VF02 we receive the following, more detailed error message:
Only output tax is allowed for account 480000 1000, VZ is not allowed
Message no. FS215
This problem has to be somehow linked to the usage of an input tax code. If we perform the same procedure with an output tax code (Ausgangsteuerkennzeichen) we will not receive the error message and an accounting document is created.
It seems that the account determination is responsible for the described problem: Although an input tax code is assigned, the account key (as shown in the overview to the applied conditions on the items within the credit memo request (Item - Condition - Detail)) does not change from "MWS" to "VST" and therefore an output tax account (Account Number 480000) is determined for the tax amount. And for that output tax account the usage of an input tax code is not allowed.
Has anyone an idea how to solve the described problem or how to implement the billing procedure another way?
We are aware that there is such a functionality within the module MM called "Evaluated Receipt Settlement (ERS)" but this is not suitable for our purposes since we want to implement this within SD and without the need to create an order first which seems to be necessary for ERS.
Thanks for your help,
Bernd

Hi
Please check in FS00, of that G/L account in control data tab what is the Tax Category that has been maintained.Check wheather input tax/output tax has been maintaind or not
In FS00 in the control tab check the box Posting without tax allowed

Sales to Billing Invoice Creation with Split that Shouldn't Occur

Good Morning,
First of all, let me tell you i've started doing some ABAP development last week, so i have a lot of things to yet understand.
I received a request to implement a change in the creation of a billing document.
Context:
I have a order - Order 132098723 - with the following header data:
    VBAK-VBELN = 0132098723
    VBAK-VBTYP = C
    VBAK-AUART = ZCV
    VBAK-VKORG = 0100
    VBAK-VTWEG = T1
    VBAK-SPART = 00
    VBAK-KNUMV = 0000223615
    VBAK-FKARA = ZF3
    VBAK-KUNNR = 0010135306
    VBAK-TAXK1 = <empty>
    VBAK-TAXK2 = <empty>
    VBAK-TAXK3 = <empty>
    VBAK-TAXK4 = <empty>
    VBAK-TAXK5 = <empty>
    VBAK-STCEG_L = <empty>
    VBAK-LANDTX = <empty>
The items for this Order - Order 132098723 are:
Item

Order Quantity

Description

I have a delivery - Delivery 811128713 - with the following header data:
    LIKP-VBELN = 0811128713
    LIKP-VBTYP = J
    LIKP-KUNNR = 0000223615
    LIKP-FKARV = ZF3
The items for this Delivery - Delivery 811128713 are:

A copy control was created in transaction VTFA - Sales to Billing Document:
Header
    Tgt    Billing Type    Source        SalesDoc Type
    ZF3 Invoice          ZCV            Standard Order
    Copy Requirements    001    Header/order-related
    Determ.export data    <empty>
    Assignment Number    E
    Reference number      A
    Copy item number checked

    ZATX        Text Item
    ZSCV      <Description>
    ZTAD        <Description>
Step by Step of the process:
I call transaction VF01 and i input two docs to be processed:
    132098723 - Order
    811128713 - Delivery
Before i Execute i will do a Billing Document Overview (F5) and in the Billing Document Overview two invoices are generated:
    Invoice - <Name> - <Net_Value>
    Invoice - <Name> -<Net_Value>
THE PROBLEM:
INSTEAD OF TWO INVOICES, ONLY ONE INVOICE SHOULD BE GENERATED. When i do a split analysis the system informs me that the reason for the split is happening because of different header data:
Fld Name
$000000001
$000000002
Tax classification 1 for customer (TAXK1)
1
Tax classification 2 for customer (TAXK2)
1
Tax classification 3 for customer (TAXK3)
1
Tax Classification 4 Customer (TAXK4)
1
Tax classification 5 for customer (TAXK5)
0
Tax departure country
PT
I've spoken with my colleague who requested the correction of this and he told me that what he wants is that, in this case, only one invoice should be created.
He also told me that in this case only happens when a item with category ZATX exists in the Order (in this case item category ZATX exists in the first item of Order 132098723).
Debugging, i've found out that the reason for the split is that in program SAPLV60A, in include LV60AA95, form VBRK_VBRP_DATENTRANSPORT, the VBRK-TAXK* values are populated with values from KURGV-TAXK* and VBRK-STCEG_L is populated with values from KURGV-LAND1 or KURGV-STCEG_L (conditional). The problem is that the program goes through the section of code where KURGV is changed twice (as far as i've understood it's related with the fact that there are two items in the Order 1320987239 and on the first pass the KURGV-TAXK* and KURGV-LAND1 are empty, and in the second they have values and i think that's why the split occurs.
I'm also attaching a document with screenshots of the debug which i think they can help.
Please let me know if you need specific information.
Can you please help me in finding how can i prevent this split to occur?
All help is welcome
Best Regards,
Pedro Gaspar

Hola Pedro
First of all, see SAP Note 11162 - Invoice split criteria in billing document as a checklist.
Second, look for posts in this site with the string or keyword ZUKRI or ZUK. The question is populate the field ZUKRI and force the split according this field. It could be made with a custom VOFM subruoutine, taking any standard as a template.
f you are using values from SO and delivery for populating values in VBRK and VBRP, populate them in SO, doing them mandatories (incomplete schemes,...) or populating data in master data (material, partners,...).
I hope this helps you

Eduardo

How to extract/export SD billing invoices to flat data file

Hi,
We are using SAP R/3 4.5b and we have to extract billing invoices to flat data file like csv or xml. How do we do it?
Thanks

Hi Gyan Der,
There is another simple method to extract the SD Billing values from SAP.
You can find the SD Billing data in the following tables:
<b>VBRK - Header Data
VBRP - Item Details.</b>
You can create a report using these 2 tables in the Transaction <b>SQVI</b>.
check the following link for help to create Quick Views:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/d1/44f2b5c7f411d296080000e82de14a/frameset.htm
In SQVI, you can create table joins for the above 2 tables & extract the required output.
The report output can be transferred to an excel file or text file.
hope this helps!
best regards,
Thangesh

How to check if a user fills a header text in billing invoice

Hi everybody and thanks in advance.
My consultant wants to oblige all users to fill a header text when they create the billing invoice (vf01).
I was looking for several user exits when I can manage this requisite.
My problem is that when the user creates the invoice and push save button, I try to look for in the table STXH if the user created the header text. But I have not found anything, because the invoice has not created yet.
Only when the billing invoice has saved, the header text is stored in the table STXH.
I has been trying to find a structure wich contains the header data like xvbrk contains the data about type of invoice, etc.
I have studied this user exits:
userexit_number_range (module pool saplv60A, program rv60afzz)
userexit_account_prep_komkcv (same module)
userexit_account_prep_kompcv (same module)
userexit_fill_vbrk_vbrp (same module)
v60A0001 (Customer functions in the billing document).
My question is: In which structure is the header text of billing invoice manage before push the save button?
If I knew where it is, I could manage the data and check if the user filled the header text.
Thank you very much, and sorry for my pour English.

David,
Place this code into USEREXIT_NUMBER_RANGE:
DATA: CATALOG LIKE TCATALOG OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE,
      MEMORY_ID(30).
data: c_MEMORY_ID(30) VALUE 'SAPLSTXD'.
DATA l_head type THEAD.
DATA wa_head type THEAD.
data: l_lines type table of TLine.
data: l_line type TLine.
DATA l_CATALOG type TCATALOG.
IMPORT CATALOG FROM MEMORY ID 'SAPLSTXD'.
loop at catalog into l_catalog.
   if l_catalog-IS_REFTEXT is initial
   and l_catalog-keep is initial.
     concatenate c_memory_id l_catalog-id into memory_id.
     import thead to l_head
            tline to l_lines
       from memory id memory_id.
     loop at l_lines into l_line.
       message i000(zz) with l_line-TDLINE.
     endloop.
   endif.
endloop.
It will expose the text entered into the text ids in a message box (for now). You will want to replace the MESSAGE statement with your own logic.
You may also need to change the message numver/class from ZZ - as seen here "message i000(zz) with l_line-TDLINE." with an appropriate message on your system.
DON'T forget those points.

Export Indicator in the Billing Invoice Header

How does the Export Indicator field gets populated in the billing invoice doc. (from what specific source)? I have an invoice where the accounting doc. didnu2019t generate ... it referenced 'foreign trade data incomplete', yet both are for DOMESTIC customers. In the header for the invoice the Export Indicator was marked w/ an u2018Xu2019. I'm trying to determine how that field could get populated since the invoice for domestic customer (where would it be pulling from)?

Siva
When you create a UDF at the Marketing document header, it creates it for all marketing document both AR and AP.
You could Open the AR document Press CTRLShiftB and uncheck VISIBLE on the user field.
The formatted search query would be
SELECT T0.CARDCODE, T0.CARDNAME FROM [DBO\].[OCRD\] T0 WHERE T0.CARDTYPE = 'C'

Exchange rate accounting (FI) in header of billing invoice

Hello.
I have got a question about the exchange rate accounting (FI) in the header of the billing invoice.
Situation:
When creating the billing document: on item level the exchange rate type B is correctly taken for the date of billing as determined in the customer master data and the copy control.
BUT what can I do to fix in the header of the billing invoice the exchange rate accounting M from the month of the sells document (usually they issue the sells document one month and the billing document a month later)??
I tried to put the correct exchange rate accounting in the sells document VBKD-KURRF, but the value is not taken automatically in the header of the billing document.
Pressing F1 I get the message: Exchange rate for FI postings
The exchange rate that the system applies when you create an invoice.
Use
Your system is configured in such a way that it expects:
No prefix (leading sign) for direct rates
No prefix for indirect rates
Can anyone help please??
Thank you.
Regards,
Maike

If you are maintaining the exchange rate in sale order in the field VBKD-KURSK (Exch.rate-acct. in header accounting tab) then this rate will be passed on to the billing document header Exchange rate-accntg field.
Check whether the PricingExchRate type field is maintained as blank in the copy controls from delivery to billing.
Regards,
GSL.
