Accounting document without billing document

[Former Member]

Morning experts,

I have FI document whose type is RV (Billing doc.transfer) but when I want to see billing document by clicking Original document, there is error message "Billing document ******** does not exist".

But I can see in FBL5N the customer have the open accounting document with the billing document number.

I have found all the accounting document without billing document by using a program. Then what can I do to update the missing billing document? what other document should I also need to update manually?

Thank you for your help!

Hi,

This looks like something very serious because by design of SAP, the billing documents gets created first and then the Accounting Document gets created. It might be possible that these documents have been posted directly in FI using the Document Type RV. Please check the Business Transaction in the Table BKPF of such documents. Does the Busiess Transaction Start with SD*.

If the Business Transaction has anything other than SD*, they may not have been posted in Sales and Distribution and hence there may not be a billing document.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

The business transaction is SD00.So we can sure the FI document was generated in the process of SD transactions.

Do you have any idea to make up the errors in the system? How can I do the adjustment correctly? for example, create a new billing document or reverse some PA documents...

Thank you in advance!

Are you looking at old FI documents where billing documents have been archieved??

Try to enter the billing document in VF03 if check what you get.

What setting do I have to make to ensure the FI document (invoice) is the same as the SD Billing document?
