Hi Srinivas,

Pls maintain Copying requirement as "034(Item rel-With GI)" both at header and item level in the copying control "VTFL".

Select Billing document as F8.

Delivery document ype as "NL".

So that you have generate Goods Issue.

Otherwise you cannot create the billing document.

Regards,

Mohan.

Dear Srinivas

Go to VTFL, select your item category for the combination of NL and F8 and maintain routine 034 for the field "Copying requirements". Proformas cannot be generated unless the delivery is PGId

Hi;

I can suggest two ways to solve this.

1) You can use the billing document category as Invoice but do not maintain any account assignments to that billing type.

2) You can maintain a Customer exit in copy control where you can create a new routinue as per requirement in price type.

I think this will help you.

Hi Srinivas

Proforma can be created with out delivery being PGI'ed. THis is standard SAP functionality. If your client wants to modify this and if there is a genuine requirement, you can modify the logic in the user exit/copy control.

F2 type invoice creates accounting entries and it is not pro-forma.

Hi,

The most efficient way is to use Invoice (F2).
