VBRK-FKTYP (Billing category)

[Former Member]

In VBRK-FKTYP (Billing category) is setted on value "L" (Delivery-related billing document) but my billing document is related to sales order. In customizing of billing document my Billing Type Documente have the field BillingCategory (TVFK-FKTYP) setted on value blank. How it is possible that VBRK-FKTYP (Billing category) is setted on value "L" ??

Also, in customizing the only values that it is possible to set for the field BillingCategory (TVFK-FKTYP) are "P" "U" "W". It is normal?

Thanks

Hi,

for order related billing it is standard behavior that the billing category is 'L'. Just have a look in Include LV60AA28 / Form FAKTURADATEN_AUFTRAGSBEZOGEN line 27 - 30, where the category is determined.

VBAP-FKREL "A" will be set to VBRK-FKTYP "L".

best regards,

Dear Biagio,

check settings in customizing for your SD document type.

As the billing document is the final step of a flow, you should check the characteristics of your Sales Document type.

Mainly:

1-SD document category (orders normally have a C and credit memo or debit memo have K or L)

2- (In Billing) Dlv-rel.billing type + Order-rel.bill.type

Then, check the item category settings you used.

3- (In Business Data) Billing relevance field (for orders normally the value is different than for a credit memo or debit memo item category)

E.g.: For credit memo you may have: "C" Relevant for ord.-related billing - status acc.to target qty

For orders you may have: "K" Delivery-related invoices for partial quantity

Imagine, then the following scenario: need to create a pro-forma invoice in reference of a sales order. In the sales order, actually the item category used have a K parameter as billing relevance.

In this case, even if the billing document is in reference to the sales order the billing category is L.

In customizing for a sales order type, you would define a delivery related billing type and also a order-related billing type. The item would be delivery related invoices.

These settings are different in case of a credit note.

In case of a credit memo request, sd document category is different and also the field delivery related billing type is not maintained. Then item categories for credit memo request have a different biling relevance parameter: normally these are C.

I hope I did not confuse you more.

Try to check these parameters and in case I am wrong do not hesitate to contact me back.

Regards,

(spero possa esserti utile!)

FKTYP in VBRK & TVFK are not same, both are entirely different fields ( observe the data elements)

This is dynamic field, which will be filled according to your transaction. How you created billing document, if your billing document created wrt: order / delivery, based on that FKTYP in VBRK will get filled.

OK, in my situation the problem is this: I have a billing document with VBRK-FKTYP (Billing category) setted on value "L" (Delivery-related billing document) but my billing document is related to Sales Order and not to Delivery. How it possible? There is a way to set in this field the value "A" (Order-related billing document)? (for Credit and Debit Memo is A).

Thanks.

Hi

KIndly check the billing relelvance maintained in the item category in the tcode VOV7

Billing category is used to differentiate the billing documents

The Billing Relevance in VOV7 is "B" (Relevant for order-related billing - status acc.to order qty).

Try by maintaining "C" for Completion Rule for your Item Category but I am not sure, this will answer your query since I dont have access to SAP right now.

thanks

Hello Biagio

The only possible options in configuration for Billing Category are P, U and W. I am surprised you are finding 'L' there.

Are you confusing with TVFK-VBTYP by any chance?
