Billing Type:

Number range in the case of internal number assignment

Number that determines how documents are to be numbered by the system. It indicates which number
range is relevant for a document type.

Use
When creating a document with internal number assignment, the system assigns a number that lies within
the appropriate number range.

Procedure
1. Determine which internal number ranges are provided for the relevant document type. Choose
the function "Maintain number range" of the document type (for example, Purchase order ->
Maintain number range) for this purpose.
2. Choose a number range and note its number.
3. Enter the number of the desired number range.

Increment of item number in the SD document

The increment by which you want the item numbers in a sales, delivery, or billing document, to increase
when the system automatically generates item numbers.

Procedure
Because it is sometimes necessary to insert items between other items in a document, you should enter an
increment greater than 1. If necessary, the system can then automatically generate an item number in
between.

SD document category
A classification for the different types of documents that you can process in the sales and distribution
system (for example: quotations, sales orders, deliveries, and invoices).

Use
The document category determines how the system stores and keeps track of document data. It enables the
system to provide you with status information about delivery processing, billing, and documents that are
used for reference (for example, inquiries and quotations).

Transaction group
A grouping that allows you to control certain features of transaction flow by sales, shipping, and billing
documents.

Use
The transaction group controls

Which sales document types you can process with which system transactions during sales order
processing

For which sales, shipping, and billing documents the system updates indexes for reporting
purposes

Note
The transaction group that you assign to a transaction must match the group that you assign to the
respective document type. If you leave the field blank when you define the document type, the system does
not check for a transaction group.

Blocked for transfer to accounting

Indicates whether the system blocks automatic transfer of the billing document to accounting.

Procedure

To block automatic transfer of the billing document to accounting, mark the field.

Note
During document processing, you can manually transfer blocked billing documents to accounting by
selecting:
Billing -> Change -> Release accounting

Update statistics
Indicates whether the system stores information from billing documents of this type for the purposes of
statistical analysis.

Procedure
If you want to generate statistics using data from this billing type, mark the field.

Document type
The document type classifies accounting documents.
It is noted in the document header.
Attributes that control the entry of the document or which are themselves stored in the document are
stipulated for each document type. In particular, the number range assigned to the relevant documents is
determined on the basis of the document type.

Negative posting
Indicator that causes the transaction figures to be reset for a document item.
If the indicator is set, then the transaction figure update is changed. A correspondingly set posting on the
debit side reduces the credits side of the account. A credit posting reduces the debit side of the account.

Use
The indicator can be entered in billing types for credit memos and cancelations. It only has the required
effect in FI, if the company code permites negative postings.

Branch/head office relationship

The indicator controls which partner functions of the billing document can be forwarded to Financial
Accounting

initial : If the payer is different to the sold-to party, the payer is transferred to Financial Accounting
as the customer and the sold-to party as the branch. Any branch/head office relationship stored in
FI is ignored.

A : The sold-to party is forwarded as the customer. Any branch/head office relationship stored in FI
for this customer is taken into account.

B : The payer is forwarded as the customer. Any branch/head office relationship stored in FI for this
customer is taken into account.

Note:
If the credit limit check is active, the system always reacts as described in the entry 'initial', regardless of the
setting.

Credit memo with value date

If the field "Credit memo with value date" is set, the reference billing document is not settled and the
payment deadline date for the base billing document comes after the billing date for the credit memo, then
field VALDT (fixed value date) in the credit memo request is filled with the payment deadline baseline date of
the base billing document.
This does not happen if the payment deadline date of the reference billing document comes before the
current billing date of the credit memo.

Invoice list type

Classification that distinguishes between invoice list types that require different processing by the system.

Billing type for rebate processing

Indicates whether the billing type is used exclusively during rebate processing.

Use
If you create a billing document of this type as the final settlement of a rebate agreement, the system
indicates in the agreement that the rebate has been completely paid.

Note
If you need to correct a rebate settlement, you can either correct the amount of the accrual or you can adjust
the statistics for the rebate settlement.

Billing document is relevant for rebate processing

Indicates whether billing documents of this type are relevant during rebate processing.

Use
If you mark this field, the system uses the value of billing documents of this type to adjust the sales revenue
attributed to a customer. The sales revenue forms the basis for calculating rebates for customers with whom
you have rebate agreements.

Example
You can specify, for example, that debit memos of a certain kind are not to be taken into account for
purposes of rebate processing. In this case, the value of such debit memos will not affect a customer's sales
revenue and subsequently not affect any rebates the customer receives.

Notes
This indicator must also be set for the billing types for rebate settlement (such as final settlement, partial
payment, rebate correction or manual accruals).
Rebate payments for a rebate agreement never affect the sales revenue of other rebate agreements,
regardless of whether the rebate payments are subject to volume-based rebate or not.

Billing type for cancellation

Specifies the default cancellation for this billing type.

Use
If you enter the number of an existing billing document in the Document field on the initial screen for creating
a billing document, the system automatically creates a cancellation document of this billing type.

Example
If you enter the number of an existing invoice (billing type F2), for example, the system automatically creates
a cancellation with billing type S1.

Account determination procedure

Specifies the condition types that the system uses for a particular type of document (an invoice, for
example) to determine the G/L accounts to which amounts should be posted.

Document procedure (for determining pricing procedure)

The key that specifies the pricing procedure for this type of sales document.

Use
During pricing, the system determines the pricing procedure by taking into account

The sales area

The pricing procedure key in the header of the sales document type

The pricing procedure key in the customer master record

The pricing procedure determines how the system carries out pricing for a particular sales document (for
example, which pricing condition records it accesses and in which sequence).

Output determination procedure

Defines the output categories (for example, order confirmation and electronic mail message) that are
allowed in a document and the sequence in which the output categories appear in the document.
