hi

If invoice dates are defined for the customer, the system proposes the billing date from the invoice date calendar. If no invoice dates are agreed, then the actual goods issue date is formed on the basis of delivery related billing. In order related billing, the billing date of the order forms the basis of the billing date.

If you are billing services, the system proposes the date of services rendered. You can change the date manually in the sales document.

If you are using a billing plan to bill a project, the system can propose billing dates for the billing plan on the basis of planned or actual dates in the corresponding milestone.

In a billing plan for a maintenance or rental contract, you can specify rules by which the system determines billing dates on the basis of other dates in the contract.

thanks, but for this paragraph, please give detail customizing:

" If invoice dates are defined for the customer, the system proposes the billing date from the invoice date calendar. If no invoice dates are agreed, then the actual goods issue date is formed on the basis of delivery related billing. In order related billing, the billing date of the order forms the basis of the billing date."

thanks very much!

Dear bo zhang

System determines the billing date from Delivery "Actual GI Date". There whatever date you maintain, that will fetch into your billing. Of course, you can also change this date in VF01.

thanks

thanks every gurus,

can I say:

(1) if billing from delivery , so GI data is the billing date

(2) if billing from sales order, in sales order, there is a billing date ( perhapes come from invoicing date in customer master data), so this date will copy to billing document

Hi

For Delivery Related Billing - the Billing date will be the date of PGi

If Billing plan is implemented - the Billing dates specified in the calendar assigned to that customer will be the next billing date.

Thanks,

Ravi

Hi

While creating sales order, the sales order creation date itself is updated as Billing date in VBAK-FAKSK

" While creating sales order, the sales order creation date itself is updated as Billing date in VBAK-FAKSK",

this is not true in my order, my order date is "5/9/2005", but billing date is "5/18/2005"

Hi Bo,

So far whatever the project I have worked, i have noticed this (sales order creation date a utomatically updating as Billing date) happenign in the sales order.

Please check if you have some user exits to update billing date or some custom logic.

Other gurus, pls update if there is any discrepancy in this.

HI,

Take Payer , and check the 'Invoicing dates' from sales area data - Billing document from XD02 .

Go to SPRO -- Logistics Execution -- Shipping --- Basic Shipping Functions - - Partners - Master Data - Define Customer Calendars -- select factory calendar -- select your id from the list -- check definiton and calendar .

Probably , you will get some idea towards your problem , i think your solution is around calendar only.

Hi,

It is automatically determined through copcontrols from sales order to billing. Even you can chage that manually also.. while doing billing..
