Rebate Condition is not appearing in Billing Document

Former Member

Hi,

We are using Rebate agreement. In few Billing Documents we found that rebate condition was not appearing. After investigation, we found that 'Volume Rebate Group' field of Material Master was empty. Later we made changes in Material Master and assigned 'Volume Rebate Group' field as 'Quantity Rebate'.

We then run VBOF, OVG1, OVB3 & VFSN, but Billing is still not updated for rebate condition. Also the 'Volume Rebate Group' field in Billing Item is Blank,

Kindly suggest how to update Billing Document.

Regards,

Swapnil

Hi Swapnil

Whatever you have investigated is absolutely correct. This is a problem with the volume repate kind of rebate agreement wherein if the indicator for the volume rebate group is not present at a line item level (VBRP-BONUS field) or left blank the system does not consider these relevant while running VBOF. In your case when at a sales org level the Volume rebate group in material master was missing the billing documents did not get updated with the volume rebate group in the billing items. As a result in VBOF run these are left out. To accrue you need to somehow put the values of the fields in VBRP-BONUS for each line item through a table insert (i know authorisation would be an issue). Then run VBOF. It would be ok.

Thanks

Swapnil,

Updating material master data does not update the corresponding fields on pre-existing billing document line item. The rebate conditions do not pull in because the relevant fields at the billing document item did not meet the conditions when the billing document was created. The various ways to update billing documents (like SDBONT06) have no effect if the master data was not copied into the line item at the time of document creation.

By changing the master data, you have corrected the issue going forward. Correction of existing documents is a business decision, as it means cancel/reissue the entire doc flow of each affected billing doc. An alternative is to adjust the rebate accrual manually and be done with it.

Hi,

Please check your pricing type used in the copy control settings.

In billing (or when copying orders): Certain condition types were notdetermined in the source document (this is usually controlled by the pricing requirements).

Hi Ashu,

Copy control is properly working.

It is creating problem only in that cases where we are updating 'Volume Rebate Group' field after creating Billing Document. If 'Volume rebate Group' is first properly maintained and then Billing is created, system is showing Rebate Condition in Billing Document.

Hi Swapnil,

for billing document to be updated go to SE38 and execute the program SDBONT06 then you will get the screen update billing documents, enter the data like rebate agreement number and sales area & check test and chainging documents check boxes and execute it. Automatically billing documents are updated.

Hi,

I think the best way is to cancel the billing documents and create tehm again as you have already corrected the master data. VBOF or any other program will not pull these billing docs.
