Hi Anbu,

If you are using external billing, please refer to note 489676 which may help.

If the problem happens in the normal billing, please check in VOFA for the cancellation billing type

setting, in most case the problem is caused by customer own defined requirement in the

cancellation billing type. Please try to remove your own defined requirement then test again.

Another possibility of this kind of problem could be caused by a customer modification

(userexit). So, if you activated some userexit in RV60AFZZ,

(USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMK) check if deactivating them the problem

still occurs.

Cheers,

Hi Alex,

Your reply is very helpful. There is a requirement attached to it.

I need another help. Whenever we cancel an invoice, the cancellation billing document date is the date of parent invoice date. I know there is a requirement/setting which address this issue but couldn't remember exactly now.

I need a copy requirement/ setting -- wherein the cancellation invoice date is the date on which cancellation invoice is getting created.

Hi Anbu,

I am glad to hear that my last answer if helpful.

It is the standard system behaviour that the billing date (VBRK-FKDAT)

of the invoice cancellation is always taken directly from the original

document.

You can change th date manually as follow:

1) run VF11

2) Select the cancellation document

3) Goto->Header->Header

4) Now you can update the Billing Date (VBRK-FKDAT) in the cancellation.

If you want to set automatically the billing date (VBRK-FKDAT) of

the cancellation into todayｴs date as the default you have this

possibility:

In the level of invoice type (Transaction VOFA), every invoice type has

its own cancellation type.

==> VOFA 'Billing: Document Types' for example: billing type F2 invoice

Cancell.billing type 'S1' Invoice Cancellation

Copying requirements ' ' < Here

Youｴve got the possibility to deposit an additional copying requirement.

against your cancellation type. In here you can set the billing date on

the document to whatever date you require. Eg: VBRK-FKDAT = SY-DATUM.

would set it to the date the document is being cancelled (see note

43318).

Cheers,

Alex
