HI,

As per your client requirement is not possible in SAP even if you try in enhancement also.

Reason :

1. Billing document number ranges is continuous number ranges and it is not possible to maintain Billing document numbers yearly wise

2. Excise Invoice number ranges are maintained yearly wise

So as per my knowledge it is not possible.

It is possible ,we can maintain billing document number range yearly wise.

Hello Jyoti,

I fully agree with Mahesh. As per the Excise regulation there is an option for document number as yearly where as Commercial invoice number is a continuous number.

There are lot of ways to tracking the Billing document and Excise invoice number.

If you provide the actual business need I can suggest you a way to do that.I think you had the same requirement which I have experienced.

Let me know your requirement clearly.

Thanks,

Dear All,

As per the standard it is not possible. But some times client says why two different numbers ranges we require same numbers ranges for both billing doc. & Excise invoice.

Please go through the following link

http://saptechsolutions.com/pdf/SDDocumentNumberRangeEnhancements.pdf

Also check with the Abaper with explicit enhancement by maintaining the number range values in Custom table where we go when ever there is no option for(if client is not convincing) but which is not reccomandable but left out with no choice when client is demanding.

Using userexit achieve what u wanna do in maintaining number range

[Lakshmipathi]

Definitely, this is not recommended.  What will happen if you want to cancel either excise invoice or billing document?  You cannot cancel either excise invoice or commercial invoice.   You need to cancel both the documents.    Most importantly, excise number range will change year wise whereas, billing document number range is a continous one and you cannot change year wise.  Please think on this and discuss with your client.

Adding To Mr Lakshmipathiji Comments,

Please think if you done Sales order>>Delivery>>>Billing(These three with Non-Excisable items)

Ask your client what he can do now??

Some times client thinks completely illogical and more efforts needed in convincing..
