selection date

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

For collective processing, I like to confirm what date is used for the respective selection dates:

Can I confirm that

1. Selection date used in collective processing for selecting Sales Orders to create DO(s) is selecting from Sales Orders the Sales Order document creation date?

2. Selection date used in collective processing for selecting DOs to create Billing Doc(s) is selecting from DOs the DO document creation date?

1. Selection date used in collective processing for selecting Sales Orders to create DO(s) is selecting from Sales Orders the Sales Order document creation date?

No, it is NOT the sales order creation date.

In order to get clarification, for example, in transaction code VL10C, keep the cursor on the field Delivery creation date and press F1 button. The following will be read;

Delivery creation date

The day on which you create a delivery.

Use

During delivery processing, the system automatically proposes the delivery creation date for all schedule lines with the same goods issue date by taking the earliest of the following dates:

The material availability date

The transportation planning date

2. Selection date used in collective processing for selecting DOs to create Billing Doc(s) is selecting from DOs the DO document creation date?

Again No. Just go to t.code VF04 and keep the cursor on the field billing date from field and click on F1 button. The following description can be read;

Billing date from which billing is to be carried out

The billing date with which the system begins the selection of documents for the billing due list.

Use

The system selects those documents in which the billing date falls within the period you specify.

Procedure

Enter the date with which you want the selection of billing documents to begin.

Note

The billing date in a sales document is determined as follows. If a billing schedule exists for the customer, the system proposes the billing date from the schedule. If there is no schedule and you are billing goods, the system proposes the planned goods issue date. If you are billing services, the system proposes the date of services rendered.

Dear Shiva,

Thanks, appreciate it.

But just 1 doubt:

1. In the schedule lines found in Sales Order, how can there be a 'Goods issue date' ? Is this a planned or proposed GI date that can be see in sales order given goods is issuable only after DO has been created (PGI)?

2. Likewise, I just like to confirm 1 doubt:

By 'Billing Schedule', is it meaning that a Billing schedule is found in a DO?

Or does it mean an agreed payment scheme like that found in a scheduling agreement?

Have a nice day...

Based on the availability check and other parameters like route,pick/pack time etc, the system calculates goods issue date. These details can be seen in the sales order itself. In transaction code VA02/VA03, go to menu Goto->Item->schedule lines.

There highlight the schedule line item, where the quantities are confirmed by the system and click on shipping button at the bottom. There you can see all the dates including the goods issue date.

2. Likewise, I just like to confirm 1 doubt:

Or does it mean an agreed payment scheme like that found in a scheduling agreement?

The billing schedule can be found in the customer master using t.code VD02/VD03. Go to billing document tab. There you can see a field for invoicing date, where in a billing calendar can be assigned. This billing calendar is configured in t.code SCAL and special rule can be added in the calendar like billing only on Friday etc.
