Do you mean proforma invoice or commercial invoice?

If you are able to generate commercial invoice multiple times, then you need to check the following areas:-

- Completion Rule B for your Item category in VOV7

- in VTFL, select your item category for the combination of your delivery type and billing type, where B should have been maintained for the field Billing quantity and "+" for "Pos./neg. quantity". Similary routines 004 and 007 should have been assigned for the fields Copying requirements and Data VBRK/VBRP respectively.

Hi,

What Billing Type are you using.

[Former Member]

hi

its proforma invoice type

[Lakshmipathi]

To control creating proforma invoices repeatedly, go to VTFL and maintain routine 311 for the field "Copying requirements"

thanks

Hi,

Header in VTFL

[Lakshmipathi]

Hi lakshmi

Thanks. issue was resolved. i have entered 311 in copying requirements at item level and at header level its 3 - header / dlv related (vtfl) and now its ok

with these settings, only one invoice is getting created for the delivery

and also the status of delivery is showing as complete

Thanks for your immediate response and i am thankful to all the guys for contributions

Hi,

Please check the document category of billing type, it should be M.

Once again check copy control settings. At item level, in VTFL, the field positive/negative qty should be marked as "+".

Hi Abhi
