Dear SD GURUS,
I have the following requirement from my client:
The net value of the item in the contract is 1000.
At the item level details I have BILLING PLAN attached :
When I select "Next Billing/Invoice Date" as Quartely the system automaticaly proposes the 4 quarter dates with net invoice amount as shown below and net value of the item is changed to 5000 (Which is not correct as the net value of the item in condition it self is just 1000.
15.09.2010 14.12.2010 15.09.2010 1,000.00 INR
15.12.2010 14.03.2011 15.12.2010 1,000.00 INR
15.03.2011 14.06.2011 15.03.2011 1,000.00 INR
15.06.2011 14.09.2011 15.06.2011 1,000.00 INR
15.09.2011 15.09.2011 15.09.2011 1,000.00 INR
But, I want the system to split up the 1000 (net value of the item) into these Quarters as below:(the amount 1000 is split into 4 periods with 2500 each time billed)
15.09.2010 14.12.2010 15.09.2010 250.00 INR
15.12.2010 14.03.2011 15.12.2010 250.00 INR
15.03.2011 14.06.2011 15.03.2011 250.00 INR
15.06.2011 14.09.2011 15.06.2011 250.00 INR
Can this issue solved using periodic billing functionality or suggest any other functionality.
Thanks and regards,
Sandeep Kulkarni.
Hello,
Even i am facing the same issue, where the net value should be $20000
with each bill value should be $5000
but rather it is calculating 20000 for each milestone and net value is 80000.
We are using periodic billing here. Please do let me know if you have a solution.
Also this document is not showing in VF04 later on.
Thanks in advance!

Kindly let us know the billing plan assgined to line item
Standard SAP milestone billing type is 01
As per your requirment, I think you need to assgine the milestone billing plan. Please find below the configuration for the same
Milestone billing means distributing the total amount to be billed over multiple billing
dates in the billing plan.
As each milestone is successfully reached, the customer is billed either a percentage of
the entire project cost or simply a pre-defined amount.
During sales order processing, the system determines from the item category whether a
billing plan is required and, if so, which type of plan
The type of billing plan that is determined at this point is set up in Customizing and
cannot be changed in the sales document.
Billing plans for periodic billing and milestone billing plans for project-related milestone
billing have different overview screens so that you can enter data relevant to your
processing.
For example, for milestone billing, you must be able to enter data to identify the
individual milestones.
IMG configuration requires :-
1. Maintain billing plan types for milestone billing in OVBO.
2. Define date description in SM30 - V_TVTB.
3. Maintain Date Category for Billing Plan Type IN OVBJ.
4. Allocate date category in SM30 - V_TFPLA_TY.
5. Maintain date proposal for Billing Plan Type in OVBM.
6. Assign Billing Plan Type to Sales Documents Type in OVBP.
7. Assign Billing Plan Type to Item Categories in OVBR.
8. Define rules for determining the date in OVBS.
Milestone billing is typically used for billing projects, such as plant engineering and
construction projects. Such projects often include a series of milestones that mark the
completion of different stages of the work. In the SAP R/3 System, milestones are defined
in a network along with planned and actual dates for the completion of work. The milestones
are also assigned to the billing dates in the billing plan.
Each milestone-related billing date is blocked for processing until the Project System
confirms that the milestone is completed.
Delivery-relevant order items for which a milestone billing plan applies are billed on the
basis of the requested delivery quantity and not on the total of the confirmed quantities.
The connection between the project and the sales document item is made in the individual
schedule lines of the item. Each schedule item can be assigned to a network in a project.
To display the project-related data for a schedule line, proceed as follows:
In one of the overview screens of the sales document, select
1. Item -> Schedule lines.
2. Mark the schedule line and select Procurement details.
The following figure shows an example of milestone billing where only the Contract have
been billed :
Order Item Turbine 100,000
Billing Plan
Billing date Description % Value Billing Block Milestone Billing Status
01-10-94 Contract 10 10,000 - x x
01-03-95 Assembly 30 30,000 x x
01-04-95 Maintenance 30 30,000 x x
01-05-95 Acceptance 30 30,000 x x
01-06-95 Final invoice .. .. x
Network/Activities
Milestone Estimate Actual
Assembly 01-03-95 01-03-95
Maintenance 01-04-95
Acceptance 01-05-95
For each billing date in a milestone billing plan, you can specify whether the billing
date is:
1. fixed
2. always updated with the actual date of the milestone
3. updated with the actual date of the milestone, if the date is earlier than the
planned billing date for the date

Hello WISH,
Thanks for the reply.
We are using Periodic billing plan here.
The customer is not interested to use mile stone billing functionality as the clients business process does not include project based billing.
Its just a fixed amount to be billed for a contract ( The amount to be billed, may remain same, exceed or reduced also), which would span across quarters / months.
Is there any functionality I can use in SD to achieve this objective?
Regards,
Sandeep Kulkarni.
