Collective

[Former Member]

Hi all,

We have done all necessary setting for collective billing. While processing using T.Code VF04 however the orders are not getting collectively billed.Header data is same.

What could be the reason?

Appreciate your inputs.

Hi,

The Invoice Split criteria shlould give u the analysis on why the invoice is getting split.

You can paste the Invoice split analysis here so that one can understand and give u the solution. These can be controlled through the routines.

paste the Invoice split so tht it cld b easy to ans ur query.

Cheers,

Anil,

Split analysis simply says " Header Data Error" but we have found that there is no difference in header data...

...However your reply gives a clue...In copying control for the filed DATA VBRK/VBRP we have maintained the routine 001. Could that make a difference? What will that routine do?

Can you please share your valuable thoughts

Hi

The routine in VBRK/ VBRP is causing a split. Remove the routing 001 in VBRK/ VBRP.

This shall solve your problem.

Award points if helpful

Please maintain Copying Requirements "003" in VTFL at Header level and retry.

Hi Lakshmi,

Thanks....I THINK WE ARE ALMOST THERE...but our scenario is ORDER TO BILLING.

Should i then go to VTFA and proceed?

Also the requirement should be set at header or item level?

Hi

I think routine 003 shall not work. Because that routine will create 1 billing document for each document.

i..e you shall not able to combine the orders.

Believe me. Remove the routine in VBRK/ VBRP and then try to create billing document

This shall solve your problem 100 % (Unless of course you are not meeting the basic criteria for order combination i.e. same payer, billing date & payment terms.)

If Sale Order to Billing, you can try "Copying requirements" with 021.

Hi Terence

What do you mean by collective billing?

Do you mean to say that all the deliveries that you make should be billed under 1 single invoice for collective billing?

Please clarify

Hi Sunil,

You have understood right except that my scenario is one of order-to-billing.

A couple of orders have to be billed collectively i.e. One Invoice

Kindly check the following data like,

1) Payer No

2) billing date

3) Terms of payment

4) Incoterms

If still the problem persists, kindly open the billing document, goto environment, split analysis, From there, u can get actual reasons

Hope it is useful

Reward if useful.

Hi,

Many thanks for the replies.

However, i have also checked the split analysis and it says header data error. But the header data is the same.

I tried for quite a few customers and document types as well. Is there anything in the config or copying that am missing.

Please pass your ideas...Point will be awarded

Check whether the payer number, payment terms and the billing date is the same or not.

Thanks & Regards,
