We wish to include both delivery-related and order-related billing items in a single billing document. Is that possible using configuraiton? We have seen some forums indicate it is not possible without ABAP.
Thanks SAP gurus!
As per the SAP standards, Order related and Delivery related items in a single billing document are not possible.
Anyhow, we can make some possible changes to get those two different items into a single billing document. Follow the below steps to achieve your requirement.
> Copy the standard TAD item category and make it as ZTAD. Change the billing relevance to A and check relevant for Delivery field. Make the item type as A(Value Item)(VOV7).
> Now copy any schedule line category and remove all the values from the fields and mark the field as relevant for Delivery and create ZP schedule line category.(VOV6)
> Now with the combination of ZTAD + ZP determine the schedule line category in VOV5.
> Now create a Delivery Item category in 0VLP and check NO BATCH CHECK
> In Copy control VTFL, add your new entry with the item category. copying requirement 004 should be assigned.
That's it...!!!!

Hi,
I had the same scenario.
Can you tell us if there is a bad effect if billing documents were both created in reference to sales order and delivery document

Hi,
Having said that it is possible, it is not possible for the same item category to do both order related and delivery related invoicing.
Different item categories can belong to different kind of billing , some relevant for delivery related biling and some others orders related billing. During invoice creation, it is possible to link both of them to one invoice. This is possible.
However it is not possible to have one item category billled through both order related invoice and delivery related invoice.
If done as per the first scenario, it will not have any implications. But you have to very thoughtful on how you are going to separate each item category and then finally complete the configuration for all the relevant ICs.
Bradley,
I still think this is possible.
Delivery related billing or order related billing is decided by the configuration of billing relevance in the Item category. So if those things are properly configured, it should be possible to include delivery related items and order related items together in one invoice document.
When you do that, you have to ensure that the item categories are relevant for either delivery related billing or order related billing.
Then in copy control, only order related I.Cs shoudl be configured in VTFA and only delivery related I.Cs should be configured in VTFL. There should not be any mix up in this configuration. If there is any mix up, then it may cause problems.
If these two configurations are done, it is possible. You may also note that in VF01, it asks only for documents, not specifically deliveries or orders. So it is possible in standard SAP itself. Please configure it and try it.

Your findings are certainly correct. Without ABAP coding, this cannot be achieved.
