Kannan,

Billing Indices are usually created to facilitate faster system performance. It would be very time consuming to search for each and every order and bill it. Hence as and when a transaction (like order save, delivery or PGI) is completed, the system checks if the order is now ready for billing and once it is ready, adds it to the billing index.

The billing run now checks only for items / orders in the billing index and creates the billing documents. Once the billing document is created, it is removed from the billing index.

Using index the system saves lot of time / efforts

Hi

The billing index is an entry in a system table that ensures that the order is included in billing. For example, if you cancel a billing document, billing can only be repeated for the order if you create a new billing index for it (option offered to you when canceling or separate function for canceled billing documents).

When you create orders, the system creates a billing index for each order item.

This way the system saves lot of time / resources.
