Hello,

I need below clarifications. Pls correct If Iam wrong.

1) When Billing documents are created and if  they have rebate condition types or not, do  all such  billing documents gets updated to VBOX table ?  If yes, I also need to know if billing documents without rebate condition types are also updated to S060 structure  for the billing amount !

2) Does VBOF T code takes list of  billing documents from VBOX table to update them with rebate condition types (in case of retroactive rebates ) ? If yes, how does the VBOF T code recognises which billing documents to take from VBOX table to update them with rebate conditions ?

Hello All,

I have a scenario where the client has a distributor eg.1000 which has been defined as a Sold To Party which by default is also the SH,BP and PY.

The client receives the order through the dealers and depending on the amount of the total sales order in a month a service charge of 10% will be paid to the dealer at the end of the month.

All orders will be booked against the distributor and receivables will be booked against the distributor and not the dealer.

How to achieve the same ???

We have referred the Error while settling rebate

Respected Experts,

We have a scenario to configure rebate agreement,

customer will pay certain amount for certain period on that company will give percentage of discount,

also criteria is that certain products will be exclude:

Example:

ABC pvt ltd. has given order of Product A- Rs.500000, B- Rs.100000 and C- 500000

total Rs. 20,00,000 on 20.12.2013 and participated for rebate scheme,

company rule for rebate:

1. purchase date should be 20.12.2013 to 31.03.2014

2. product C will be exclude

3. Rebate percentage: 20/12/13 - 10/01/14   above 20,00,000 Rs.  will get 13.5 %,  above 10,00,000 Rs.  will get 13.00 %

4. customer fall in above criteria will get additional discount of 1.5 %

According to the rule customer ABC pvt ltd. will get rebate for Rs. 15,00,000 only

which is 13 % and additional 1.5 %

Please suggest which rebate agreement to use,

Group, Material, Customer, hierarchy or ind. of sales vol.

Thanks,

Hello SAP Experts,

There is a one Billing document created in sales area, 3500 /50/ 20.

Customer Master record maintained in 3500 / 50/20 has rebate flag ACTIVATED, whereas record maintained in 3500 /50 /30 has it DEACTIVATED.

This document should Ideally  consider the Rebate Relevant flag of Customer master record in 3500 / 50 /20 ,but instead it is considering

the Customer master record maintained in 3500 / 50 / 30.

Could you let me know, is there some dependency of Rebate relevant flag maintained in one sales ares on another sales area ??

Thanks in advance your answer.

Thanks and Regards,

Umesh  Karane.

Hi Experts,

My business scenario starts from scheduling agreement -OBD- Commercial Invoice-Excise invoice - ARE3 Invoice

To address different prices in the scheduling agreement i have maintained the pricing based on price group.

The two line items falls different price group, it is fetching the prices correctly

but the problem is ,invoice gets split up because of different price group.

I know the control is in copy control VTFL- data VBRK / VBRP-invoice split, here VBRk-ZUKRI is not accounted with VBRP-KONDA_AUFT

Could you please help me to explain this split functionality in details to avoid splitting of invoice ..please

With regards,

Dear All,

We have two co. code under one client.Company code-A and Co.code-B.

Co. code B will buy material from co.code A and sales.

During sales stock will be reduced from co.code A and same will be added in the stock of  co.code B.

We do not want to use the procedure of normal process i.e co.code B will raise a PO on co.code A and the do the GRN and MIRO.

our requirement is thru the inter company sales process available in SAP the system should make adjustment of stock position in each companys book and post the clearing document for this transaction.So that we can know  the balance payable and receivable in both the company at any point of time.

Please advice the process available in SAP which will meet our requirement.

Hello SD Experts,

See below VKM4 screenshot what is the significance of credit value? How does it calculated. How can i get the calculation of credit value for a sales order? I know net value is taken from items net value minus taxes.

This is what F1 help shows but i could not get it how it arrived to the Credit value figure.

F1 Help

Credit value

Specifies the value of the open items.

In the order, this value is

• the quantity not yet delivered

• the quantity not yet billed

In the delivery, this value is

• the quantity not yet billed

If anyone can explain me where can i track/see the values tied to sales order it will be great.

Thanks

I have a following scenario for "profit centre" in sap. and for the same wants to utilize CO substitution functionality, with 0KEM t code,

If system determine

Distribution Channel  + Plant   = Profit Centre

10+1000=1000

10+2000=2000

10+3000=3000

20+1000=4000

20+2000=5000

20+3000=6000

I have create a rule and create 6 steps for each above scenario, where incorporate the above relationship, but the step that is at the top or can say first step only successfully executed, if create order for 10+2000 system cant determine the profit centre.

step 10 > distribution channel = '10' AND Plant = '1000'    > Profit Centre 1000

step 20 > distribution channel = '10' AND Plant = '2000'    > Profit Centre 2000

step 30 > distribution channel = '10' AND Plant = '3000'    > Profit Centre 3000

step 40 > distribution channel = '20' AND Plant = '1000'    > Profit Centre 4000

step 50 > distribution channel = '20' AND Plant = '2000'    > Profit Centre 5000

step 60 > distribution channel = '20' AND Plant = '3000'    > Profit Centre 6000

please suggest what mistake I am doing, or while writing code what kind of program or logic should I adopt.

Looking for the gurus feedback.

Regards,

Hello All,

Dear All

We have a requirement where our client would like to like to pass government subsidy directly to customer in form of rebates. My questions is that is it possible to have multiple customers for a single rebate recipient in a rebate agreement?? By multiple customers i mean different sold to party and payers.

Hi Experts,

I have to send Exchange rate date in the Outbound EDI Idoc for Billing Document (Message type INVOIC). We are using R/3 4.7 system.

In the Copy Control setting Transaction VTFL, Pricing Type is set as 'G' and PricingExchRate type is blank.

Do we have direct field for getting the Exchange rate date in VBRP ?

Is the exchange rate date same as the pricing date,  as the PricingExchRate type is blank in Copy Control?

Regards,

Vaibhav

1. Introduction

Out of those various business processes in billing is accommodates & reconciliation of the retroactive prices adjustment for number affecting existing invoices. The retroactive prices adjustment can be due:

• Strong bargaining power of customer over
• New pricing agreement between supplier
• Volatile/change is price of essential commodities for manufacturing

to name a few.

This kind of prices adjustment can be handled by Retro-Billing. For instance, a new pricing agreement that you agreed with your customers may affect billing documents that have already been processed and settled. If that pricing agreement is effective before the pricing date of the billing documents, you can perform retroactive billing to call up a list of these documents and revaluate them with the new price. You can then create additional billing documents to settle any differences.

So, by definition & example of retro-billing, it can have a life cycle of months or sometimes beyond a year. Therefore this makes it a unique process.

2. Overview

Figure 1. Retro-Billing Process

On 01.03.2011, Supplier ships & sells 10 units of Material ABCD to Customer XYZ for INR 58 per unit (valid from 01.03.2011 to 31.12.9999), total amount INR 6653.30.

On 02.03.2011, invoice is sent to Customer for INR 6653.30.

Now on 01.07.2011, due to negotiations price may change to INR 68 w.e.f. 01.07.2011 (valid till 31.12.9999). Thus you will update your condition type in TCode VK11 / VK12 for this Material ABCD & Customer XYZ to INR 68 with validity from 01.03.2011 to 31.12.9999. But as you have already invoiced the customer in past so, to take care of this retroactive price adjustment you have an extra billing.

So, standard SAP platform provides the retro-billing transaction VFRB. This transaction provides basic retro-billing functionality enabling identification of invoice documents affected by retroactive price changes and execute creation of multiple documents.

In Retro-billing, enter the selection criteria like Payer, Sales Organization, Billing date from & to, Pricing type, Currency, Sold-to Party & Material.

By this system will provide you the list of invoices to which this retroactive price changes is applicable and hence you can simulate or even execute retro-billing & system will accordingly generate Credit/Debit memo type based on differential amount.

For positive retroactive price changes, i.e., INR 10 per unit price from former as INR 58 & revised as INR 68. In this case system will generate Debit Memo for the differential amount to be collect receivable from Customer. Whereas, for negative retroactive price changes, i.e., INR 15 per unit price from former as INR 58 & revised as INR 43. For this case system will generate Credit Memo for the differential amount to be pay back the differential amount to Customer.

These documents will get be in document flow of the original invoices.

3. Prerequisite for using on Retro-Billing

A. Billing Document for Retroactive Pricing Adjustment

1. Retro Debit Memo
2. Retro Credit Memo
3. Corresponding relevant Copying Control
4. Pricing procedure for capturing price change

B. Condition Record

1. The value for base price should determined automatically in the invoice through condition record
2. It should be maintain on the bases of Material & Customer combination
3. It should be a have valid validity from & to date

C. Order Reasons

You need to maintain proper order reasons specific to retro billing document type for Credit/Debit memo.

4. How Retro-Billing Works on SAP

A. Invoice & Condition Record - Existing

You can use TCode VF05N for list of billing documents or invoices based on

• Billing Document Date (to & from)
• Billing Type,
• Customer & Payer,

To view desired invoices with current base prices use TCode VF03.

In invoice, check item data – condition tab to view pricing.

In the invoice, to view corresponding maintained condition record for condition type, say, ZPR0. Selecting the condition type and click on button to view the maintained condition record.

B. Condition Record - Change

For changing in the existing condition record for base price condition type use TCode VK12. Choose key combination as Customer/Material.

Provide the desired parameter for execution the condition records.

Maintain the change in price difference. Say, positive difference of INR 10 from former price INR 58 and revised price INR 68.

C. Executing of Retro-Billing

Use TCode: VFRB for exercising retro-billing option. Provide following parameter based on your requirement, but keeping mandatory fields in mind:

• Payer (Mandatory)
• Sales organization(Mandatory)
• Billing date from(Mandatory)
• Billing date to (Mandatory)
• Pricing type(Mandatory)
• Currency(Optional)
• Sold-to party(Optional)
• Material (Optional)

You have a option of include Invoices with the Same Net Values. This indicator defines whether invoices whose current net value is the same as the post-calculated net value should be included in the retro-billing list.

• If the indicator is set, invoices with the same prices are included.
• If the indicator is not set, invoices with the same prices are not included

For instance, Invoice was created with a price of 100 Units. After the unit price is reduced to 50 Units, the retro-billing list is used to create a coupon for 50 Units. If you discover later that this price reduction was incorrect and you set the price back to 100 Units, a retro-billing list only appears if this indicator is set.

Below you can find details of entries without error

Select the desire invoice/invoices for the list of entries without error and click on button for simulation run.

Then following screen will appear for simulation run.

For generating Retro Debit/Credit memo click on button.

You can click on button for viewing the generated retro billing. Green indicator confirms that the document generated without any
errors.

Subsequently you can view the generated Debit memo from retro billing by using TCode VF03.

Hi All,

Hello team,

I am creating an invoice against sales contract which contains two line item with different plant. But invoices are getting split while running VF01 and split analysis shows that different plant code is forcing system to split the invoice. I want to raise a single invoice with two line item with different plant. Please suggest how to achieve this.

I am using the standard routine "001" which splits the invoice only if distribution channel and division is different.

Immediate response will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,

TRV

Hi Experts,

As per our business requirement, when user create invoice(VF01), at that time automatic rebate settlement should be done without run Tcode: VBO2. If yes, please let me know how it can be apply with our business.

Thanks in advance.
