VF04 - SDBILLDL - Invoices not created in background

[Former Member]

A batchjob has been created for the program SDBILLDL.

The variant has been setup properly when testing it in the foreground.

A list of sales orders is displayed in the billing due list and it is possible to perform billing in foreground.

When running the program in background with the same variant, the invoices are not created.

This was not a problem a few days ago, but at some time, the background billing stopped working.

Do you have any idea on what might have caused this problem?

The sales orders have deliveries and delivery related billing is used.

I have also tested to use the old program SAPMV60S with a similar variant, which works fine in foreground.

But when running it in background, the invoices are not created.

Spool problem?

Hi,

Background jobs for creating billing docs has to be done using tcode VF06.

Check the following [thread|; for more info.

Thanks, but VF06 will also end up in a batchjob with program SDBILLDL so it doesn't make a huge difference.

I tried scheduling a batch job in VF06 and it still doesn't work.

However, the salesorder/delivery is still up for billing when running VF04 in foreground.
