Hi Alex,

Thanks a lot for your reply and really appreciate your help!

we are using  EHP7 and SP07 version, i am using standard  date cal rules provided by SAP and set up on Processing block and In Invoice profile but could you please let me know where exactly in Easy access or IMG i can define invoice group/Package.

While transfering the BIT items from SAP CI we are getting one error as " Reference value of provider contract XXXX is not assigned to invoice group"

Could you please let me know, thanks again for your help!

Hi Hitesh,

Please check the Business Scenario Description documentation via the link that I provided earlier.

Based on the info of page 6:

You create invoice groups manually in the Web-based user interface for the solution.

Hi Alex,

Do you have any idea about how we can populate the reference value in sales order and provider contract?

1. Do we need acheive this through user exit?

2. we have selected  ref value as " stored in provider contract, now if this setting is for provider contract then where i can find setting for sales order and external document?

thank you in advance!

Hi Hitesh,

Based on the info from configuration information documentation, you'll need to use userexit to set reference value in sales document header:

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Use the standard user exit USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE in program

MV45AFZZ.

This user exit is part of the User Exits in the User Exits in Sales Document

Processing Customizing activity. The activity is available in Customizing for Sales and

Distribution under > System Modifications > User Exits User Exits in Sales .

The reference values must be filled in the header of the sales documents that are to

be processed using SAP Flexible Solution Billing. The user exit runs when a sales

document is saved, and automatically fills in the required reference value.

In the case of external applications and systems, the reference value is transferred

explicitly.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Alex
