SAP CRM: How to default Billing Frequency at run time of new line item

[AB069]

Hi Frds,

I need to default Billing frequency of newly added line item in Service Contract at run time. Billing frequency may vary as per the condition. I followed two approach but nothing work out. 1) Try to set Billing Plan at BOL level :No change found .2) Use Badi

CRM_BILLPLAN_D_BADI method

CRM_BILLPLAN_D_MERGE

, I change the returning parameter but initially I can see the change at WebUI but this change the buffer level value not at DB level, resultant is when save order and re visit the order and check billing Plan it show the default Billing Plan(by configuration) not the value which I set.

Please advice.

Thanks

Hello Imran,

it's not clear what you mean with Billing frequency ?

The time fro billing dependent from your Billing due list.

Billing plans in the contract items control periodic billing.

Depending on the billing plans and Customizing settings, billing requests are generated automatically and transferred directly to CRM Billing.

The billing plan contains a list of dates. For each of these dates up to the horizon, the system generates a billing request item. Each billing request item triggers the system to create a billing document when certain conditions have been fulfilled. The system determines the dates for billing request items based on general date information, for example, the start and end date of a contract. The general date information can either be copied from the header of the business transaction or from the billing plan type. The system uses the following rules to generate billing request items:

• The settlement period

• The billing date

In standard, a released contract item triggers the creation of billing due list items.

I hope these information will help you.

Best Regards

Gerhard
