change baseline date when an accounting document is created.

[Former Member]

Hi ,

When a sales order is created and billing is done baseline date in accounting document is copied from billing/invoice date by default. my requirement is to change this baseline date based on some custom logic, This is required because SAP calculates due date based on baseline date. Can anyone help me how this scenario can be handled.

Rgds,

As suggested by Lakshmipathi it can be controlled through payment terms. If it doesnt meet the requirements then use user exit enhancement SDVFX008 to change the baseline date.

Hi,

As understand from your question, I think its better practice to change the baseline date either manually or automatically from some logic during the billing document creation. This can be done through through the following userexit

USEREXIT_FILL_VBRK_VBRP or

SDVFX004 or

SDVFX008

or

As Mr.Lakshmiprasad explain in his message, make the default setting after concern with FI Consultant in OBB8.

Dear Harish,

May I please know which method did you use to solve the issue?

I tried changing the "Default for Baseline Date" to "Entry Date".

However, I am not getting the result. The Baseline Date still defaults to u201CBilling Dateu201D (Posting Date).

Your response is highly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Harish,

Can you send me how your problem of baseline date resolved finally. I too have similar situation and not able to understand why baseline date in FI document is taken from posting date even if it is set to default as 'Entry date' in trnx OBB8.

Dear Harish

Go to obb8, select your Payment Terms and execute. There you can see a tab "Default for baseline date". You can make changes with the concurrence of your FI guys.

thanks
