ERS inBound

Hi,

I have a problem with ERS6 iDoc insert processing from inBound. After i had done all of customizing tasks I have an error says: "There is no billing document for item 000010 in the delivery note", but if I want to bill this item through this iDoc, why SAP says this error message? What's the procedure of ERS also named self-invoice. The invoice is in iDoc, not is?

Thanks for all aswers.

Regards.

Hi Karun,

My problem is I have no idea about ERS process in SAP also called self-billing. I want to send invoices from customer to vendor using iDocs (GSVERF type). Do you know any good tutorial or manual about this topic? SAP manual is very confusing...

Thanks for your attention.

Regards.

Dear Joan,

there are three self-billing functionalities in the ERP system: GSVERF, SBINV and SBWAP. If you would like to send the invoice to the vendor, then you have to use SBINV functionality. The other ones are intended to send a credit advice only.

Concerning SBINV: the standard is realized only on the vendor (SD side). Outbound side should be designed by the customer himself. Concerning inbound side, the function module IDOC_INPUT_SBINV should be used. If you would like to understand the design better, please call the transaction SE37 for the function IDOC_INPUT_SBINV and you will find there a button "Function module documentation". There there is a really very detailed a good description including the IDOC structure.

Additionally the similar "Function module documentation" is available also for the function module IDOC_INPUT_GSVERF from the transaction SE37, too.

I hope, this info helps you further.

Kind regards,
