Billing date          Quantity

30.01.2013            15

31.03.2013             35

Hi,

The optimal way out for your requirement is that - You have materials for Billing and Delivery seperately.

Billing MAterials (Dummy) are just meant for Invoicing purpose -

Delivery Materials are meant only for Logistics purpose.

In the sytem the properties of these materials should be as below:

Billing MATERIAL 1/2/3 (Based on different Quantitiess - In your case 15,35,10): One - A Dummy material (No Stock) - Item Category with Billing Relevance as "I" and the item category will not have delivery possible. - Perform your Milestone Billing with this material.

Delivery MATERIAL 2: Physical product (With Stock) - Item Category with Billing Relevance as "A" and the item category will have delivery possible. - Actual Delivery of your material

Please let me know for anhy further information.

Preddy,

The links you have provided are good examples!

Both the links / threads have delivery. On the other hand your process does not have delivery.

Could you please explain the business scenario?

A sales order is created with one line item for 100 units and you want to have several bills (on different dates). Why?

Hi,

If you are wanting to use billing plan feature then there are only two ways:

Periodic Billing

Milestone Billing

I dont think you have Quantity Billing to fit this requirement. If you still want to play around with a Billing Plan feature there might be some ways.

Since the Billing Plan is not consistent and is purely based on some random dates we cannot have any Billing Plan Type which is consistent in the way you want.

If this is a requirement for few customers and Sales Orders, another way is that you can try to have a number of line items in the order with those billing quantities and dates. For example:

------------------------------------------------------

Line Item #         Date                      Qty.

------------------------------------------------------

Line Item # 1      30.01.2013            15

Line Item # 2      31.03.2013            35

Line Item # 3      15.04.2013            10

------------------------------------------------------

Thanks.
