Hi Siva,

It is always possible to have a sales order item as relevant for delivery but not relevant for billing.

You can leave the billing relevant field as empty in VOV7 screen for the relevant item category.

At the same time, you can have the delivery relevant details for the same category both at sales order type and delivery type level.

Coincidentlally the Consignment fill up process follows exactly the same model of delivery relevant but billing irrelevant process. You can check how the c.fillup related item category is enabled in standard SAP and follow similar set up to standardise your process.

Having said that, please be assured that it is a relevant business process with your customer, where you send materials but dont invoice the customer (loss of revenue)

It is always better if you explain the business process so that it will be easy to propose best solutions.  For your requirement, you can set the item category Billing Relevance as blank.  Better search before posting.

question not clear.

No automatic invoice after shipment you mean?

For your activity profiles for shipment types, there is a variant being defined at shpmnt end. And this variant is found in program: RV56ABST where there is a control on Carry out billing. Uncheck that for your respective variant.

if user want to use VF01 to create based on order or delivery, it will not be processed without giving error message.
