DIP configuration

[former_member499912]

Hi ,

We are implementing Project System for our client.

For customer related project, requirement is to bill the customer by project expense through DP90.

DIP profile is created for the "Billing and Result Analysis"

Now SD team is saying to see the each individual project cost lines items incurred in project in the Billing document through DP90 ,we need to assign specific cost element to the line items and same cost element will be assigned to the service master in DIP profile.

My requirement to have all the cost line items specified in the project should be picked for billing in DP90 and not by creating every time new G/l account for any new service and mapping in the service master in DIP profile.

I request you to suggest the relevant settings to be done in DIP profile to archive the requirement.

Thanks and Regards

I think this statement of your SD team is not correct. You can also generate one SD item per PS cost line item w/o assigning different cost elements by activating the "no summarization" flag in the DIP customizing on "characteristc" level.

In any case, a proper DIP customizing always needs deeper insight into the requirements and the customer's data structure (cost element, activity type, project structure, materials etc.). Therefore, this is only one suggestion, which might not be the ideal solution for your problem. If you give some more information, the solution might look different - but from my experience with the DIP, you can cover almost every requirement with customizing and enhancements.

Configuration

To use billing between company codes, make the following settings:

1. Create an internal customer (transaction XD01)in the supplying company code to represent the requesting company code.

2. Assign any sales organization of the requesting company code to the internal customer. In Customizing for Sales and Distribution, choose Billing ® Intercompany Billing ® Define Internal Sales Number by Sales Organization.

We recommend that you assign the internal customer to exactly one sales organization of the company code. Nevertheless, the internal customer represents the entire requesting company code.

3. Set up material determination and pricing in the supplying company code as you require for billing from the supplying to the requesting company code.

4. Set up a dynamic item process profile (DIP profile) with the new source Billing Between Company Codes u2013 Line Items. In Customizing for Sales and Distribution, choose Sales ® Sales Documents ® Customer Service ® Service Quotation/Resource-Related Billing ® Profiles for Resource-Related Billing/Quotation Creation. For more information, see Resource-Related Billing.

5. Create an internal sales order with an item in the supplying company code for each requesting company code, and assign the DIP profile you created above to the item. You can use this internal sales order at any time. Alternatively, you can use contracts (transaction VA41) instead of sales orders (transaction VA01).

Ensure organizationally, that there is only one internal sales order at this point in time between the supplying and requesting company codes.

Carry out the following activities only if you want to send the billing document from the supplying company code to the requesting company code using the SAP Electronic Data Interchange (SAP-EDI) and post it there electronically.

§ Set up EDI processing. For more information, see SAP Note 31126 or the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Sales and Distribution under Billing ® Intercompany Billing ® Automatic Posting to Vendor Account (SAP-EDI).

§ Make the settings for invoice receipt, if necessary. For more information see the IMG for Financial Accounting under

Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable ® Business Transactions ® Incoming Invoices/Credit Memos ® EDI.

Hi Anil,

You can create a set (GS01) for a range of cost elements and assign to the corresponding material (for matl detrermination) in DIP Profile so that you do not need to create a new material if the cost element is included in that range.Note 301117 has an excellement document on customising DIP Profile .

With regards,
