Different sorting of materials between printing the order and printing the invoice

[ligabue2017]

Hi All,

our customers require that the order of the materials printed on the invoice be the same as that which appears at the sales order level. When prints are made, the materials appear in a different order. Otherwise, the ordering between offer and order is correct. Do you have any information on how we can correct the printing of the invoice?

Whatever line item you have in billing document, in the same sequence only, system will print with the output type set in the condition record. If that is not happening, then, check the smart form which is being used for billing.

Ask an abaper to adapt the print form of the invoice to use same order than sales order/quotation/Contract. (sort keys first VBAP-POSNR and then VBRP-POSNR (document flow at item level)

Of course your system must not group several sales order items together in one invoice item, else your requirement cannot be addressed.

Hi Raymond,

thank you for your reply. I was hoping there were some configurations to update, but it seems that a programmer is required.

Regards.

Otherwise, the ordering between offer and order is correct

What do you mean by "Offering" ? Also please share more information like in billing you have 5 line items with VBRP-POSNR as 10, 20, 30, 40 & 50, is it not happening in the same sequence in the billing print output ?

Also, please use the right tags to get the attention of right audience. You have used Primary tag as R/3 which is not correct to your query which I changed appropriately.

Hi Ganesan,

thank you for your indication about the right tags to use. With "offering" I mean the quotation. The situation is that we don't have the same sequence of the items in the billing print output as in the order or quotation. Keep attention that in this moment thera are not the position in the billing print ouput, only the materials.

I ask if there are some configuration to check or if it is necessary an ABAP Programmer.

Thank you!
