Milestone billing is possible eventhough billing status is blocked

[Former Member]

Hi,

The scenario is like: I create a sales order for a configurable material which requires to create sales order BOM. Now when I save the sales order, delivery block status and billing block status are shown as 'blocked'. Its obvious as I havenu2019t yet created sales order BOM and run the costing for the same.

But still I am able to do the milestone billing after removing billing block from the billing plan.

Is it the standard SAP functionality or defect in the system?

Hello Friend,

Go to SPRO>Controlling>Product Cost Controlling>Cost Object Controlling>Product Cost by Sales Order>Control of Sales-Order-Related Production/ Product Cost by Sales Order>Check Requirements Classes.

Select the requirement calss of your sale order and inside there in the Tab costing tick it as Costing Required.

So without costing done sale order will not be saved.

Hope it helps.
