contract value incorrect updation

[Former Member]

Hi friends,

We have a scenario where a billing is done with reference to a value contract.So the target value is given in the contract and accordingly with sap standard when a billing is done the invoiced value is deducted from the target value.

Now during billing at times we have to charge some additional charges to the customer based on the requirement for ex: detention charges/mobilization charges etc. But this charge is also getting deducted from the contract vaule which in our case cant be finalized and added to contract value during creation of contracts as these charges are variables and not constant charges.

So please suggest that these charges should not get added to the contract value in turn reducing the contract value when billing is done.

Thanks

Hi AJ

As you mentioned some pricing conditions you want to exclude from deduction from target value .

You can include subtotals in pricing ,one for target value and the other for Total amount to be deducted at invoicing.

change the referenced value either by chaging pricing procedure steps and adding subtotal for deduction before the conditons to be excluded or change value at the end by using calculation type routine.You can also use routine to transfer and update information on value in table if you are using custom field in VBAP or VBAK table for contract target value. This can be done through routine in pricing.

Feel free to revert for any queries

Hi mandar,

Thanks for your reply.Can you please elaboarte a bit more for more clarification.

For example we have say the following pricing procedure

10 z001 basic price

20 z002 fuel escalation

30 z003 detention charges

Now during the contract finalization we do not know the values for z002 & z003 as they are variables and difficult to add these values in the total contract value for the customer.So they are charged to the customer as and when they are applicable during invoicing.

Now if we add these values during invoicing referencing the contract the values of z002 & z003 gets added in the contract release value.Then in this case the contract would be completed if i invoice one or two invoices itself.

Hope its clear now the scenario.

Please suggest

Thanks
