Hi All,

When we create a credit memo with billing type G2 and release the billing document to Accounting.

how does system understand which accounting document type needs to be created.

Credit memo G2.

Genral control data.

Document type [ ] is Blank.

Hi,

There are 2 options:

When you create your billing document in VOFA, there is a field document type..if you maintain anything in that, it'll be picked up.

If not, this mapping is hardcoded in SAP's standard programs..

Thanks all of you.

What is the relevance of refrence number and allocation number in copy control.

VTFL/VTFA.

i think this also plays an important role in copying the document number from invoice to accounting.

So my question is in order to have accounting document number same as billing document number.

What are the controls?

Hi RKMACC,

This not only for G2 its for all like L2,F2,S1,BV and RE, its standard SAP behavior,bcoz of program it will identify the relevant accounting document type for relevant billing type.

As per my knowledge we need to mention document type when we create our own billing type and our own document type in that time we need to tell the system pick that document type, if we copy the standard one automatically background settings also copied.

hope you understand the concept.

Thanks

Hi,

Even if we dont specify any accounting document type in billing type,system determines it from standard system.so DG is the document type for customer credit memo.

so if you copy the standard billing documents like F2,G2 and re name it then no need to specify any accounting document type.

if you are defining a billing document without copying from standard documents then you should maintain the accounting document type in billing document types.

THANK YOU
