We require the sequence of items on the invoice to be consistent with the sequence on the original sales order. Currently we cannot achieve this when there are multiple deliveries.
Scenario:
1. Create a sales order for a customer. The sales order has text lines, regular and subtotals. It is a large order (approx. 70 different items).
2. Make partial deliveries based on the sales order. The order has not been completely delivered yet. The items are delivered in a different sequence than appears on the sales order.
3. Create an Invoice for the delivered items using u2018Copy fromu2019 and choosing multiple deliveries.
SAP draws the data from the deliveries. This means that the list of items is in a different sequence compared to the sales order. I want them to appear on the invoice printout in the same sequence as on the Sales order.
We are currently spending a lot of time trying to organize the invoice into a presentable format.
I can't sort by column as we are using text and subtotal lines.
I saw an article with a workaround to use a Reserve Invoice but am unsure about the consequences of this in accounting and reporting.
Any suggestions please?
