Hello,

Go to VTAF & select your Invoice & Credit Memo Request Type.

Here in Header Details assign Copying Requirement - 001 - Header-same customer & in Item Details in 3rd DataT check if 004 - Bill.item partner is assigned.

The above setting should work. If they do not work then you will have to apply a Screen Variant (T-Code SHD0) or User Exit & make the Sold-to-Party Field as non-changeable.

Thanks,

Hello,

Copying Requirement 021 checks the Billing Header Fields with Credit Memo Fields & copies then accordingly.

In case 001, there is a additional check of Customer Code. If you want to the exact logic of both the Requirements, discuss with your ABAPer & he will explain you the code in 021 & 001.

I would suggest you to apply 001 & check in your Development system.

Go to VOPA, select Sales Document Header and click on Partner Procedures tab.   There check whether you could see your credit memo document type.  If so, double click on that and check the box against SP under "Not changeable".

Hello Pankaj,

I think the best solution in your case will be to apply a User Exit / Transaction Variant & make the Sold-to-Party Field non-modifiable.

Dear Pankaj,

For user exit modification to screen fields, check:

• Program: MV45AFZZ; FORM userexit_field_modification.

It is called for every field on the screen.

You should make a piece of code to check some conditions (for example: check if the current document type is a credit note) and if the field screen-name is 'VBAK-KUNNR' set the field screen-input to 0.

Hope it's useful.

Hi

In copy control in VTAF, at the header level data, there is a checkbox called "Complete Reference". Please check this on and then create a CMR with reference to the invoice. It will not allow  u to change the header value.

But the limitation is that you cannot change any of the header data including sold to party. If this is ok you can try this option
