Periodic billing doubt

[Former Member]

Hi,

As per our business,in case of periodic billing there is a nightly batch job that runs and generates Invoices as per the periodic plan in a sales order.

However in the month of February 2009 it somehow picked one of the past date order and tried to invoice it. So, the system gave a log of "Date 20071130 has already been billed (billing plan)".

I am not sure as to why the system picks up the previous date order and tried to Invoice. This has never happened before but happened for the first time.

What could be the possible cause of it?

Please let me know in case anything is not clear

Hi Christano,

This might have hapened due to the special rules in the billing claender which is assigned to the payer master record. Go to "SCAL" and select the factory calender and click on definition and select the special rules If any and check and change them.

2 due to reservation on particular day
