Returns Process - Billing Document with reference to delivery

[Former Member]

Dear All,

In standard returns process we are creating billing document with reference to sales order.

How can we make the billing dcoument to be created with refernce to delivery as the business wants the invoice document to be created only when the delivery is posted.

Kinldy advise what are the configuration settings required.

With Regards

Hi Raees,

Isnt your process flow like this: Sales Order>Delivery>Billing>Return Order>Return Delivery-->Billing?

In general, to ensure that you're creating the invoice always w/ref to a delivery document pls do the following:

1) In VOV8, where you cnofigure your sales doc type remove the order related billing i.e. keep it blank.

2) In VOV8, put the billing doc in delivery relevant doc.

3) In VOV8, in shipping section put the delivery doc type.

4) Create copy controls between the delivery doc type and billing in VTFL at header and item levels.

5) In the item category for this order type+ item cat grp ensure the billing relevance is either B, C or F.

6) Maintain no copy controls between sales order and the billing in VTFA.

I hope this helps.

Regards,

Raghu.
