Bapi or function to simulate billing plan

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need to use a function module or a bapi to simulate (but no create) billing plan in the contract items. (VA42)

I know this function module : BILL_SCHED_GENER_UNTIL_HORIZON.

But even if i fill the different structures, i don't have any datas in the output tables.

Do you know another "moreeasy to use" function or bapi to simulate billing plan ?

I know this one : BILLING_SCHEDULE_GENERATE but it's harder to use it.

Thanks

Is anybody knows how to use this function module ?

Hi,

I progressed with the use of this function module.

I will try to explain how i used it and maybe someone could tell me if 'im wrong somwhere.

So i select a document in VBAK. I also get the corresponding datas in VBAP, VBPA, VEDA, VBKD, FPLA and FPLT.

I forced the field endat of FPLA at 2009/12/31 and the billing plan of this document is generated until 2008/12/31.

So, what i expect is to generate the missing datas in the internal table FPLT (i first only have datas until 2008/12/31 and would like to generate billing plan until 2009/12/31)

I get the KOMK and KOMP data with this FM :

CLEAR : s_komk, s_komp.

CALL FUNCTION 'SPR_KOMK_KOMP_FILL'

EXPORTING

pi_i_spr = s_pispr (Get with MF PISPR_FILL)

IMPORTING

pe_i_komk = s_komk

pe_i_komp = s_komp

EXCEPTIONS

org_structure_not_completed = 1

OTHERS = 2.

I filled the VEDA_HEADER strcture with FM :

CALL FUNCTION 'SD_VEDA_SELECT'

EXPORTING

i_document_number = veda-vbeln

i_item_number = veda-vposn

i_trtyp = 'A'

IMPORTING

e_vedavb = s_veda_header.

MOVE s_veda_header TO s_veda_header2.

CLEAR s_veda_header2-vposn.

I filled the internal tables fpla and fplt with this FM :

REFRESH : t_fpla_old, t_fpla_new, t_fplt_old, t_fplt_new.

CALL FUNCTION 'BILLING_SCHEDULE_READ'

EXPORTING

fplnr = s_vbkd-fplnr

TABLES

zfpla = t_fpla_old

zfplt = t_fplt_old.

So, here are the values passed to the function module :

CALL FUNCTION 'BILL_SCHED_GENER_UNTIL_HORIZON'

EXPORTING

i_fplnr = vbkd-fplnr

i_waers = vbak-waerk

i_komk = s_komk

i_komp = s_komp

i_kompax = kompax

i_fkrel = 'I'

i_absagen = 'D'

i_kfplan = ''

i_veda = s_veda_header

i_veda_kopf = s_veda_header2

IMPORTING

e_kompax = kompax

TABLES

fpla_new = t_fpla_new

fpla_old = t_fpla_old

fplt_new = t_fplt_new

fplt_old = t_fplt_old.

So, i have the correct generated lines in t_fplt_new, until 2009/12/31, but i dont' have any amount in netpr field, for all lines, even the first ones that had amount in t_fplt_old.

So if anybody knows if i forgot something or if i'm wrong somewhere, please tell me. Maybe it's not the good way to simulate billing plan.

Thanks

Ps : if you need more details or if i'm not clear, tell me.

I can't find examples and i tried to pass different values ton the function module, but i already have the same problem.

It's important for me to simulate the creation of the dates in the billing plan and i don't know how to do.

In VA42 it's simple, i just have to put a new date in the future for the billing plan header and when i go to the billing plan for Item, the new lines with amount are generated.

But i can't do the same thing using this function module (BILL_SCHED_GENER_UNTIL_HORIZON). I tried to understand how the standart program do it but there's many thousand of lines.

I don't think i'm the first who want to do this thing but i can't find any other informations.

Please help me if you know a way to simulate these lines.

Thanks in advance
