Billing without Delivery

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have a specific scenario:

1. We create a Sales Order, say 1000 Qty.

2. Production produces the Material and sends the Material to the FG Stores.

3. Billing Team does the Billing of all the 1000 Qty. This is done prior to the Delivery (PGI in the SAP System).

4. The FG Material is delivered to the end Customer as per him requirement; For example, we deliver the Materials 300 PCS, 200 PCS, and 500 PCS on 01.11.2011, 05.11.2011, 10.11.2011 respectively.

Please guide us

1. how we are going to Bill without Delivery?

2. how we will do the Delivery after billing?

3. how we can differentiate the FG Stock . For us the Material belongs to the Customer as we have billed to him, but practically lying with us.

Regards,

Tulasi

From excise point of view, it is wrong. Once a material is invoiced, they are not suppose to keep in plant. So you have to follow consignment process which would suit this requirement.

1. how we are going to Bill without Delivery?

--> Set-up your SO order type as Order related billing.

2. how we will do the Delivery after billing?

--> From point 1, then you can proceed as normal till GI.

3. how we can differentiate the FG Stock . For us the Material belongs to the Customer as we have billed to him, but practically lying

--> When you bill, no goods movement. Try a reservation document to book the stock. Upon delivery, then release the reservation.

Hi,

You can have Order related billing. The Invoicewill be on the basis of Order rather the delivery.

You can control setting at the item level for delivery. If the Schedule is set relevant for delivery it should work for you.

You can use a special stock indicator for your material.
