Logic for reading deliveries in VF04/VF01

[former_member208541]

Hello,

how does VF04 functions. for instance after giving the selectin criteria, i get 10 deliveries and i want the deliveries to combine , should i select individual billing doc option or collective billing option.

my confusion is how the system tries to combine the deliveries. that is if i give individual billing document, then the system is looking at one delivery at a time and creating a billing doc for the same and that means it is not looking upto all the remaining deliveries and so there is no question of other deliveries being combined (assuing that combination criteria exists among remaining deliveries)

does it first reads all the deliveries and then decides which can be combined based on combination criteria

If you give individual billing document then system creates one billing document for each delivery in VF04. It is as if you are creating VF01 10 times for each delivery.

If you give collective billing, then system reads all the delivery documents and as per the split routine in copy controls the field VBRK-ZUKRI is filled. If VBRK-ZUKRI is same for all the 10 delivery documents, single billing document will be created. If not, how many differents ZUKRIs are there that many different billing documents are created.

Hi

For collective invoice for multiple delivery documents the system searches only for some very important fields like

1.Payer

2.Payment terms

3.Destination country

4.Billing Date or due date for billing

5.Billing address

System searches for only these fields mainly provided your copy control settings are right

Considering that all criteria meet for combining several deliveries to 1 invoice, Collective Billing is recommended.
