Hello,
- Create the Number ranges in TCode VN01, say, from 1000000000 to 1999999999 for Billing as internal and assign to the billing document type in TCode VOFA.
- Create the number range for accounting document in TCode FBN1, say, 1000000000 to 1999999999 put as external and assigned it to Accounting doc type RV in the TCode OBA7. In addition to that in accounting doc type RV in Required during document entry section activate REFERENCE NUMBER field.
- And based on your business process, maintain copy controls in TCode VTFA (for Order related billing) or TCode VTFL (for Delivery related billing) - iIn Header level 'Reference Number' make it as 'E' - Current billing document number.
then when ever the system save the billing document the billing document number will be assigned to Accounting document coz of external number range maintained for Accounting doc
Thanks & Regards

Dear JP,
I'm not very sure whether I should go for this configuration as you said or not cause we;ve started to use SAP since 2008 with 7 company code and from this February we've started more three company codes. This problem not happening for earlier companies. This problem happening only new companies and not all invoices. It is happening only 30% cases.
We have lots of order types and billing document generates with ref. to outbound delivery. Number Range already created for 2011 and I just want same number range with Billing Document to accounting document. Pls advise what should I do now?
Your support and co-operation will be highly appreciated
Best Regards.

Hello
30% cases
Well, I would suggest that kindly investigate why the those 30% docs are behaving that way.
In my opinion, if 70% is working fine, in that case you should not take chance in changing the config. So, try investigate and share your finds
Still, if you go for new config then it will not effect the older doc which already released to accounting.
But there my be an issue while reversing or cancelling those docs.
Therefore, I would suggest before making any changes on PRD client access, track the effect & changes on QAS System for the new config.
Thanks & Regards

Dear JP,
Many many thanks for your kind suggestions.
I've compared my last year settings with this years. In T-code: FBN1, last year Ext. tab was selected but this year it is showing inactive. I'm trying to make it active but failed. Can you pls advice how can I make it active then provide tick mark there?
Best Regards.

Hi,
Invoice numbers ranges configured in SD - VN01
Where as accounting documents number ranges configured in FI - FBN1
These numbers are always difreent.
If you want to be same then make number range interval same in VN01 for Invoice and FBN1 for accounting document.
Also try to put validation(enhancement) when saving document(both should be same).
