Valuated stock in transit and IC billing

[peter_steffensen]

We’re trying to implement valuated stock in transit between company codes using the standard setup proposed by SAP, and this is also implemented in our test system, so value of stock in now obtained in transit stock

I’m though a bit confused about the IC billing

Normal procedure without valuated stock in transit is a purchase order, a delivery and a IC billing after GI has taken place.

In our testing when GI takes place a material document is created which deduct X kg from stock at Y value. Due to the new method products are now immediately put on stock in receiving plant at X kg at Z value in the transit part

It’s possible to make an IC billing at the end of the new flow, but this IC invoice is for X kg and the value is 0 value.

Nowhere the IC billing is mentioned, and perhaps it’s me, who is misunderstanding the concept – i.e. is IC billing not relevant for these or do you have a special pricing procedure, which enables values?

Any hints?

Best regards

Process steps:

1) Create inter-company STO

2) Create Outbound delivery

3) Post goods issue against Outbound delivery

4) Post goods receipt with reference to Outbound delivery

5) Create billing document with reference to Outbound delivery

6) Post invoice against STO

Hi Rosh

Thanks for sharing/answering and this is also what I expected the flow to be (as this is of course also how a standard flow is for goods without valuated stock in transit).

The problem is that when I use the:

5) Create billing document with reference to Outbound delivery

then I'm just using the same pricing procedure as I do for my normal IC STOs without valuated stock, but the difference is that the IC billing does not contain any values, when we use 'Valuated stock in Transit'

If you have values on your IC billings for valuated stock in transit, are you then using another pricing procedure for this.

Just for specifying it, then we're using these 'new' standard types:
Purchase order type: NBCR - CC STO "Val. tf. GI"
Delivery type: NCCR - Recieving CST

Are you using this functionality as well?

Yes, I am using this functionality. The process working as expected.

The problem seems to be lack of config settings. Please check the following settings in order to transfer the pricing to Billing.

1) Call transaction OVKK, check is the pricing procedure defined for the combination of Sales organization, Distribution channel, Division, Document pricing procedure and Customer pricing procedure.

2) Call transaction V/08, check STO's gross & other conditions are  defined in the pricing procedure.

3) Call transaction VTFL, select billing type 'IV' and item category 'NCCR' --> Select item --> Specify pricing type as  "G" and price source as "A"

After make the above settings, retry the scenario and revert if you face any issues.

Hi Rosh

3) Call transaction VTFL, select billing type 'IV' and item category 'NCCR' --> Select item --> Specify pricing type as  "G" and price source as "A"

did the trick!!!!!!

Somehow the VTFL was not considered, and I never checked this.

Thanks
