Selection in statistical setup for billing docs

Question

Dear,
We have to set up our billing docs with OLI9BW in source system. But we only want to set up the data for the last 2 1/2 years. In OLI9BW we don't have the option to select by date (invoice / billing date).
Does anybody knows an alternative transaction or an alternative program to do this or does anybody have an idea how to handle it?
Best regards
Daniel

Answer 1

There is no alternative process for creating the setup tables for billing documents. In order to get the billing documents for the past 2.5 years, you're going to have to query the VBRK table in your source R3/ECC system for the billing date (FKDAT) range that you desire. From that get the billing document numbers for that interval of time and use those for your filter in tcode OLI9BW for your setup.
If you have a large volume of documents for that interval, you may want to consider executing multiple, concurrent setup jobs with billing document ranges that represent 6 months worth of data. This will signicantly speed up the total throughput for creating the setup table in your source R3/ECC system.
