intercompany billing document setup

[Former Member]

Hi,

I would like to enquire on intercompany billing document setup.

We have customized billing type ZIV for intercompany invoice, and ZIG for intercompany credit memo.

Is is possible to set up the cancellation for each billing type as

- ZIG for ZIV and

- ZIV for ZIG

Hello,

the intercompany billing has SD document category VBTYP = '5'.

It must be cancelled with an intercompany billing document having SD document category VBTYP = '6'.

Viceversa, intercompany billing document having SD document category VBTYP = '6' must be reversed with intercompany billing has SD document category VBTYP = '5'.

These are the correct settings.

In case of cancel of cancellation (you reverse a billing document, creating cancellation, then reverse the cancellation) there are some restriciton:

- Indicator "billing document was canceled" (field VBRK-FKSTO) remains set for first intercompany invoice

- the reference document delivery note has remains been finally billed,

Best regards,

Ivano.

Is that your business process requirement as you suggest to your client or that requirement of you client?

Anyways, you can do that.

In ZIV billing doc type, in Cancellation section's Cancell.billing type maintain ZIG.

And also, in ZIG billing doc type, in Cancellation section's Cancell.billing type maintain ZIV.

Thanks & Regards

I m thinking is there any advantage of having such setting?

would there be any problem if the these actions are carried out:

-Cancell a ZIV - u get ZIG

-the delivery document become open, and you bill a ZIV again.

- however can a ZIG which is already a cancellation of ZIV be cancelled again?

Hello MIN,

For practice & understanding or test purpose, this can be ok.

But, in actual or real time scenario, I don't think it hold good.

See, you said ZIG is a Credit Memo for Inter-company right?

How you are going to use it for cancellation?

As I know, a Credit Note or Credit Memo is a document used to adjust or rectify errors made in a sales invoice which has already been processed and sent to a customer. If you have already sent an invoice to a customer but now need to provide a credit for that invoice, you would send them a Credit Note or Credit Memo. You can think of a credit note as a "negative invoice."

But not CANCELLATION INVOICE.

Logically, if you see, there will be a number range issue. So, just visualise, when you have to book an actual credit note, then what you are going to do? And how is you end user and auditor is going to recognize the credit memo?

For your your purpose of having a different cancellation doc for inter-company sales invoice and credit memo, you can create a Z Cancellation Billing Doc, say, ZIC and assign it to ZIV & ZIG billing Doc.

Hope it assist you.

Thanks & Regards
