hi,
What is Invoice List
The invoice list lets you create, at specified time intervals or on specific dates, a list of billing documents (invoices, credit and debit memos) to send to a particular payer.
The billing documents in the invoice list can be single or collective documents (collective invoices combine items from more than one delivery).
The standard version of the SAP R/3 System includes two types of invoice lists:
for invoices and debit memos
for credit memos
If you wish, you can process invoices, debit memos, and credit memos at the same time. The system automatically creates a separate invoice list for credit memos.
A payer may be the head office of a buying group, which pays all the invoices for goods that are shipped to individual members. The group payer takes responsibility for paying the invoice lists and then collecting payment from the individual members. In return for these services, the group payer usually earns a factoring or del credere discount.
Depending on the tax structure of the payer's country, the payer may be liable to pay taxes on factoring discounts that he earns. In Germany, for example, factoring discounts are taxed at the standard rate of 15%. During invoice list processing, you can reimburse the payer in advance for this tax liability by creating special condition records.

Invoice Lists makes it possible to send a list which contains multiple billing documents like invoices, credit memos and debit memos, to a Payer at specific time or on specific days. This can be generated in background processing.
There are two types of invoice lists in the standard:-
- One for Invoices and debit memos and
- One for Credit memos

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 - Shipping Point (ShPt) VF24

Good day, I run a invoice list t-code VF24, I get the results and because I need to process invoices for a same plant. So when I process the invoices into 1 invoice, everything works fine. When I cancel the invoice that I have just created, the ShPt(shipping point) does not show on the Invoice list (VF24). Can you advise me urgently on what needs to be done.

The reason for this is that the invoice list has
no item data. Please look at VBRP for any invoice list using transaction
SE16.You will see there is no data, there is only header data recorded
(VBRK).
So as no item data was copied from the invoice to the invoice list
(via item copy control), the shipping point data (an item field) is
not copied across. This is standard.
So when you then cancel the invoice list, there is no shipping point
data to write back to VKDFS.
Please run the report RVV05IVB to resolve this

Invoice List Output

Hello Friends,
I am having issue with Invoice list output, when I print my invoice it prints the shipping quantity of material only as only ONE even when there is a multiple quantity, I want my invoice list output to print exact amount of quantity.Is there anyway I can deal with this issue to make sure that it prints multiple quantity in one line or in multiple line.,whatever--,I am a functional consultant not very comfortable with coding, detail explanation will be helpful.
Appreciate ur reply.
Thanks.

really issue is in the program layout.

Invoice List data(VF21/VF22) as IDoc

Hi,
We have a typical scenario of converting Invoice List data in SAP into IDoc and to transmit it as an XML to the third party system. In the data to be transmitted, sub-totalling at the material (in the invoice items) and material+invoice date level is required and the sub-totals are to be populated in two kind of segments (for each of the sub-total type) in the IDoc.
That is, a new IDoc structure will be defined with the segments/fields that the customer wants viz., a header segment with only few fields from the invoice list header, an item segment with only few fields from the invoice list item, and a sub-total segment with two fields, each to hold sub-total at material and material+date level respectively.
We have output types which, when assigned in the invoice list should create the required Idocs.
Invoice lists will be created for several partners, but each list will have only one partner.
What are the steps to be carried out in order to achieve this objective? Please stress upon the FM parameters to be provided and NACE options to be selected.
Vish.

Hello ,
Your requirement is very simple ,However before posting into sdn please do a proper search on idoc.
Now coming to your requirement as of now you have the invoice data coming up.
1. In the NACE transaction create an output type related with the respective partner data.
2.Create segments with the required fields and set its status to release.
3.create Idoc type and message type ..link the message and segents.
4.Now link the message type and idoc type .
5.
6. Now assign process code to the partner function by defining a logical system and in the process code
put your custom function module where you put your custom code which will filter and
cumulate the data coming from the invoice into different fields
using normal abap code,
Now once you are done with the abap coding the
function module has few parameters which you can pass them as it is .
control_in need to be passed to Control_out as it is.
Now fill the segments with the required data and append the segment data to the
EDI_DATA structure which is a exporting parameter for thefunction module .
Now once you execute the invoice using this partner function and message type
system would internally call the custom function module which you have assigned to
the process code and would create an idoc.
also go through saptechnical-com site for addition details on idoc creation.

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.

Invoice List Job for F2 Only. Exclude other Billing types, e.g. L2,

Hi:     We have just set up a job for invoice list. Everything seems to ran alright until customer service created a debit memo (L2) for that customer and the debit memo got consolidated with the rest of the F2. I understand that L2 will be consolidated because the invoice list type set in the billing document setting is LR.
I later found that we do have a long list of billing docs that is set to LR as the invoice list type. (Please see below)
The requirement that I've got from the user is that they only want F2 invoice consolidated in the invoice list. What would be the best advise to do this?
Can anyone please advise?
Thanks!
F1     Invoice
F2     Invoice
FAS     Canc.down pymnt req.
FAZ     Down payment request
L2     Debit Memo
FP     Billing POS-Interfce
FR     Invoice Repair
FV     Invoice Contract
FX     Billing Ext Transact
G2S     Cred. memo 3rd party
HR     Billing Training Adm
IGS     Cancel ICM
IV     Intercompany Billing
IVA     IB order-related
S1     Cancellation of Inv
S3     Cancellation of Inv
SHR     Cancel Training Adm
WIA     Plants Abroad
ZF2     Drop Ship US Cust
ZIV     Interco. Invoice
ZL2     I/C Debit Memo
ZML2     Misc Debit Memo
ZSF2     Samples Invoice

We need to know what this "Job" is using for the invoice list. Is it T-Code VF05, VF04, etc?
Either of these you could create a variant for the job to only include specific Document Type(s) ala F2

Invoice List: Missing Pricing Condition

Hi,
We are trying to implement invoice list because of the different sold-to party but same payer requirement. we have configured all the requirements listed
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.
It successfully creates the invoice list now with net value, but, the pricing condition is missing.
What might have been the problem?
Thanks in advance for your help...

Hi,
Have you maintained the pricing condition record for RL00? Also can you please explain what have you maintained in copy control? If possible, please share the screenshot.
Thanks,
Jaydip

Invoice list date in the masters data

We have changed the invoice liste date of Customer Master (Sales area tab page under billing) from "01" to "05" in Production
Then after that we deleted the old Invoice document, which has the invoice list date of "01", and created a new billing document,
However the invoice list date of "01, Not "02", has been assigned to this newly created billing document,
Aftwer making the changes of calendar date format in the Xd03 saleas area billing tab page when user is creating the Invoice the new Invoice list date is not taking the new one what could be reasons help me to know
Thank you.

Hi,
I think, this changes will affect only new document.
In your case you had deleted old invoicess only,but data already captured in sales order or may be in delivery.
Create new SO >>> delivery >>> invoice and shee it appears or not.
If it comes then above my statement is right,
Kapil

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.

Factoring discount in invoice list

What is the meaning of factoring discount in invoice list and when it is applicable?
If client don't want to apply it then how should i remove it from the invoice list screen?
As the requirement of the client is to consolidate all the billing document of the customer?
What are the prerequisite of the invoice list as per my understanding the header data of all the billing document should be same?
Correct me if i am wrong.
Regards,
Satya

hi,
factoring discount is used in invoice list to give a discount on the total value of all the billing docs.
eg
suppose there are 10 invoices and the value of the item goes above 1lakh, maybe the customer can ask an additional dicount because of the huge value of business he is generating. hence the company
decides to give an additional discount on that 1lakh, which is called factoring discount.
maintain 0 as its condition record RL00
prerequisites:
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.

Grouping of invoices using invoice list

I have advised my client to use SD>Billing>Invoice List>Maintain output for invoice list to achive grouping of invoices
i noticed under
SD>Billing>Assemblin groups
one is assembling group of billing documents
and other one is Assembling group of invoice list
Please tell me only the difference of both and where and through which t code to see the ouput of assigned billing doucment
now after configuring SD>Billing>Invoice List>Maintain output for invoice list i see ZPGR for invoice with F group type coming in VG02, should use VG02 to manually assign billing document..
Regards
Siva

Hi,
The functionality of ASSEMBLING GROUPS is different. It is used for Processing logs for the Billing documents with the group F and R for invoice lists.
If you want to create the INVOICE LIST you can cr eate it in the transaction code VF21 for all the blling documents which have same payer and the billing date.
In the same tcode you can the Output assigned to it, if all the settings in NACE are done.
Please chcek, if this is what you require, else please clarify the question.

Buss.Area not getting transferred to invoice list

Hi Gurus,
hope u all r doin good outhere, i have an issue with bussiness area not getting populated or transferrred for Invoice list that are released to accounting .
the scenario here is: in the accounting overview under the Billing Invoice(VF03) we are able to see the buss area against the customer acct line item and the GL acctline item, but when we go into the Accounting overview under Invoice List (VF23), the Buss area is not getting populated against the Customer lineitem..., we are not able to figure out what is missing...is it in the configuration...,
we are on 4.6 , and we have an OSS note 69499 (given below) on this issue which says
Summary
Symptom
Business areas are not transferred for invoice lists that are released to financial accounting.
Additional key words
GSBER TVTA VF21 SAPMV62S factoring discount
Cause and prerequisites
This was not programmed
Solution
A solution is only available in the standard system as of Release 3.0D.
You can make the attached advance correction that uses a user exit.
In this solution, the business area is copied from the sales area table (TVTA) for the sales area of the invoice list header. A business area determination on plant/division level (T134G) is not possible because the item information of the individual billing documents is no longer available in the invoice list.
Source code corrections
and we have contacted SAP , some one from SAP side told that the program is existing in that userexit already with our 4.6c,
someone has suggested that in OB65 the check box is not activated against the comp code i use, but i have found that to be the check mark for the financial statements at the buss area level..will that make any diff to my issue... is it something with the FI part or SD part which do you think is incorrect ....any kind of suggestions pertaining to this issue .here would be helpful.
some body please throw some light on it, i would be very much grateful.
Thanks in advance
Jay

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
