Convert Proforma Invoice to Invoice

Former Member

Hello,

We are using Order related Proforma Invoice (F5) with the same number range as Invoice (F2).

Is there a way we can convert the same F5 Proforma Invoice into actual Invoice (F2) OR do we have to create a separate invoice for Accounting.

Thanks.

You cannot convert proforma into a commercial invoice at any cost. You have to create a separate commercial invoice for which, you should maintain necessary copy control

thanks

HI

As far as i know there is no functionality to convert a proforma invoice to invoice.

You have to create a F2 invoice inorder to post the values into accounting

Hi Anjali,

As you know that proforma invoice is nothing but the sample/dummy invoice.It will not be posted to FI means no clearing of this document will happen.

This Pro-forma invoice is one which is sent before the commercial Invoice(original invoice) to receive advance payment from buyer. The seller will not record this as 'Account Receivable' in his account and

buyer will not record it as 'Accounts Payable' in his account. This is not a true/original invoice.No more changes will happen after creating this proforma invoice in accounting.

If you want you can cancel this proforma invoice and create a new original invoice(F2 document type) using VF01.But in standard SAP there is no such way to covert that proforma to original invoice.So we have to create a separate invoice.

Regards,

Krishna.
