Hi Durga,

I am not completely sure if I understand completely your question, however

- in IS-U Billing you can define your own variant programs (customer enhancement, i.e. z-program logic) via using the path which you are describing or by using the transaction EA88. The variant program you create should start with zxxxxxx. You can copy-paste any standard that is close to what you want to implement. In the variant program definition, you should specify the input and output operands, the variant controls if any and the line item type.

- After saving the variant program, you should create the respective function module. The function module should have the naming convention isu_zxxxxxx. You can copy your function module from an existing one, that is close to your requirements. When you save and activate the FM, SAP directly links the variant program created with the FM.

Hope it gives you some further hint,
