How to mass change billing document dates

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have created an extended billing plan for several contracts in VA42.

I then wanted to maintain the billing due list (VF04) and change the billing date in the process to Todays date as the billing plan's created were for closed periods.

Before I could do this an overnight job ran maintained the billing plan on the original dates.

I now need to change the billing dates to allow them to post to the current period like you can in VF02.

Is there a way of doing this on mass as I have 4000 to change ?

Any help appreciated

Hi,

If no of bulling documents are huge you can schedule in the background using transaction code VF06 and filling up the Default Data section to the required date you want.

Hope this helps

Hi Simon

In VF04

go to Settings--->Default data.

On the following pop up

enter the default data. Check for couple of them before doing them enmass.

Hi I tried this but it won't pull up my invoices I think that they are completed but still open. They won't post because they are posting back over four periods that are closed.

The lines have a status of C for completed but when I check the header document flow I can see they are all still open.

I can see that changing the billing date to Today in VF02 will allow them to post but I don't fancy changing the date on 4000 of them!

I'm starting to think LSMW.....

Hi Simon,

If you know CATT/ECATT then i would suggest to go for it.Record a sample test case and then submit an excel sheet with the document nos and the date to which you want them to change.
