After technical upgrade,while creation of Final invoice of Type FC another statistical document of Type PA is being posted on the CA. Does any one know why?

Hi Experts,

We recently had an SAP technical upgrade, after that when a final invoice is being created with Doc type FC, a statistical doc type PA is posted along with that. Earlier only one doc type FC was created when a final invoice was created but now after upgrade the final invoice is split in multiple line items along with creation of PA statistical doc whose amount is nullified with a sub line item of FC.

We are unable to figure out why this PA is being posted along with final invoice. We have not done any custom changes on invoice creation. Does any one know where in config can I check the reason as to why the PA doc is created along with FC document.Or why this FC document is split into PA line item as well.

Is there any point in configuration where we can check as to which document types will be created for which transactions, or how a document is split into different main/sub.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Priyanka,

Check the following SPRO Config node-

IMG-->SAP Utilities-->Invoicing-->Invoice Processing-->Item Selection in Invoicing-->Item Selection in Account Maintenance/ Define Sub-Items

In here, select the clearing type (I think in this scenario will be R42\R43) and click on "Item Selection for Bill Printout (Subitems)"

In here, against the combination of Clearing category, main transaction, sub transaction, check whether TRn check box is ticked or not.

This controls whether a document item that has already been posted should be transferred to a consumption billing credit memo/receivable in invoicing.The newly generated item inherits the due date of the invoicing document.

I assume that the statistical document is credit document as you told that it is getting negated with a line item of document type FC.

Also check event R402, as this is the event which normally posts you can post documents during invoicing.

Hope it helps

Thanks,

Amlan

Hi Amlan,

Thanks for the reply.

But I have already checked this part in customizing, the main/sub for PA document is not maintained for R43/R42.

A quick, further update on the issue, this is only happening for the customers having Budget billing plan(PA doc here is for Budget billing), before the upgrade, only FC document used to have the open due amount when final invoice used to be created and PA used to be cleared completely.

But now after the upgrade, when a move-out/ final invoice is created the PA document is partially cleared and due amount is open on the PA document instead of FC.

Is there any point in config where the preference is given for a particular doc type to have open due amount.

Please find the screenshot of account display:

PA doc -> 80 Euro posted on 17.06.2013 with due date 05.07.2013.

Move out happened on 15.07.2013 and FC document created with multiple sub-items, partially clearing the PA doc.

Is there any point in config where we can control this partial clearing or can have this open due item on FC document only.

Thanks once again in advance.

Hi Amlan,

Thanks for the reply but I checked in the system, these notes are already installed.

Could there be any other possible reason.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Priyanka,

Which version you have upgraded to? EHP 5.0 or EHP 6.0?

You can check the SAP note 1924970 as well to see if it applies.

Also, have you checked the following config-

IMG-->SAP Utilities-->Invoicing-->Invoice Processing-->Define Control of Budget Billing Amounts in Invoicing

Is the Adj. BBP in per. Inv. checkbox ticked?

If the above solutions doesn't work, I would recommend you to raise an OSS with SAP.

Hope it helps...

Thanks,

Amlan
