IS-Media: data transfer from one order type to another order type

Former Member

Hi Experts,

I have below issue. appriciate immidiate reponse.

IS-Media:

We have order type "EPAP". In this order type, there is no "liability account and Amortization process".

We have order type "SUB". In this order type, there is liability account and amortization process.

Now, business wants to move all EPAP orders to SUB. Now we would like to know how the liability account and amortization process takes place.

Small example:

Business partner A paid for EPAP for one year. lets say amount is 12000. assume this BP now having 6000 Credit balance. Now we would like to take this balance to new order type under "SUB".

We are more concern about the how liability account and amortization process happens in order type "SUB"

I request experts to share their experience. Looking forward to hear.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

In our case, they have orders created under EPAP but they follow mannual process as this is a Trail Item. Hence, Once we terminate the the orders, refund amount amount will be updated in Order itself.

So, requirement is closed now.

Hi Muneendra,

Document type SUB is used for 'Renewal Subscriptions'. The customizing settings for this order type specify that a liability account is created for each order item. It contains the amount paid by the customer and amortization amount.

The system sets up the liabilty accout for each purchase period. This can be seen in the liability account tab in the subscrption order.  Delivery is only possible for renewal subscrption when an incoming payment is made. If the payment has been received, the system calculates the subscription period or expiry date from the number of issues paid.

Following master data need to be maintained before creating the subscription order.

1. Media Product Mix.

2. Delivery Viability set.

3. Sufficient number of media issues. (eg. if you have a billing frequency of  12 month for a weekly product, minimum 52 media issues need to be generated).

4. Planning Trigger.

5. Pricing condition.

Hope you have created all required master data.

Then create a subscription order for the customer A (in the given example). System will create an offer. Then utilize the credit balance 6000/- to make the incoming payment. (This you can transfer by using manual adjustment entries in FI. (Please check with your FI consultant/Super user). Once you make the incoming payment (JKFB01) the offer will be accepted and new expiry date will be determined as per the payment entered, and media issues generated. Amortization plan also will be created. The order will be due for billing now (depending upon the settings).Then create billing document by using the transaction JF01 and transfer the billiing document to FI by using JFTA.

Now you can see the amount 6000/- in the liability account.

Next step is to create set the order deadline JV37, and perform the net change planning JVNC. Then perform amortization by using JKRN and transfer the revenue to FI by using the tcode JFTE.

You can see the posting details thru the transaction code JFREVENUECOCKPIT or check the entries in the table JFREVVAACC.

First you create subscription order for A with the document type SUB. System will create an offer. Then use the 6000/- for making the incoming payment against the created subscription offer (JKFB01).

Regards,

Suresh
