Hi,

Here is the business scenario. I have made all the necessary cnfigurations.

2. Company code b1, sales org b2, distribution channel b3, division b4, plant b5, shipping pt b6, storage location b7

3. End customer C1 created for a1/a2/a3/a4

4. Internal customer C2 created for a1/b2/b3/b4

5. Material m1 created for for a5/a7/a2/a3 and extended it for b5/b7/b2/b3

6. Assignment of plant b5 to a2+a3

7. Organizational Units by Plant -- b5 --> a2 + a3 + a4

8. Internal customer by sales organization -- a2 - c2

1. Creating Sales Order va01 - OR + a2 + a3 + a4 for Customer C1, delivery plant b5, storage location b7

2. Creating delivery vl01n - picking and pgi done

3. Create Billing - VF01 enter billing type and delivery no and save.

4. Go to VF04, look for intecompany billing documents and save. error "sales organization not defined."

If you still have issues,

1. check copy control in VTFL

2. check Defining Order Types for Inter-company Sales Transaction Billing t.code OVV8

I think you should be good to go.

Do i need to extend customer c1 in b1/b2/b3/b4?

[Lakshmipathi]

In IMG go to MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set Up Stock Transport Order > Define Shipping Data for Plants.

Here, you need to assign the receiving plant as a customer with the respective sales area. Before doing this, you should extend the receiving plant as a customer via XD01 for which the Account Group should be with External Number range so that you can maintain the same plant code as a customer.

Hi G. Lakshmipathi,

Before I do any more setting, can u please check the configuration that I have mentioned in the first post.

In Step no 3. where I have created internal customer C2 using company code of receiving plant and sales area of delivery plant. IS this configuration right?

and Do we need to extend end customer to company code and sales area of delivery plant as well?

can u please help me with this

[Former Member]

Also, if i am not wrong, Stock transport order should be done when the stock is going to be moved between two plants or two storage locations that are under single company code. In my scenario, they are under two different company code.

Is my understanding correct?

[Lakshmipathi]

You need to assign the sales organisation and distribution channel to delivering plant in OVV9. Check whether you have done that to generate Intercompany Billing.

thanks
