Cross Company sales EDI/IDOC Issue. billing sequence cause LIV FI Doc can't

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

When we doing Corss company sales billing.

the old process is

1.) billing to customer F2 ,

2.) then inter-company billing IV, though EDI generate parnter LIV FI document.

customers' new requirement is to do the step 2 first, which means do the inter-company billing first then billing to final customer. but an error occured. as below:

" Profit Center must be assigned (After Split Message) Message no. ZFI006 " it cause EDI parner LIV cannot generated.

Have you met these kind of matter? and you suggestion? is there any solution?

Hello Wang

If you have not already considered, review this OSS note:

38501 - Intercompany billing before customer billing document

Thank you for your suggestion, but the notes is not helpful to the issue.

We just need to use VF01.

the root cause is profit center lost during IDOC procesing.

MukundHS is right, the message must be coming from a user exit. The code must assume that the IV document is preceded by the F2 document (i.e. your old process) and might be looking for some data in the preceding document. You could use 'where used' feature in SE91 to find where exactly this error occurs.

Personally, I think the old process was fine and am not sure why they would need to change it. But obviously at least some additional development will be required to make this work.

thank you very much about your suggestion.

I've find a note. and waiting for the result. I'm not sure if it is workable.

Is this a newly created material master?

If yes, then maintain required profit center in Material master (Tcode MM02) for Inter-company sales Profit Center of General plant parameters section in Sales: general/plant tab.

Thanks & Regards

Hi,

There should be some problem with some user exit. The guess is because of the message number # ZFI006 which is customized and not SAP standard as far as I understand. Ask you ABAPer to check why this error is coming. It should solve your problem.

Thanks
