Credit memo for Inter-company billing

[Former Member]

Hi

We are trying to create a credit memo with reference to an inter company billing document. The business requirement is to create a credit memo to adjust the invoice value due to wrong value posted in the original inter-company invoice. Hence we do not want to use the sales returns route for this.

So, we are trying to create a credit memo request (ZCR) in VA01 with reference to the Inter company billing document (ZIV). We have maintained the copy control between ZCR and ZIV.

However, when creating a credit memo request (ZCR) with respect to the intercompany billing document, we get the below error in the sales order.

"Item category ZNLC is not defined" and "Check Item copy" with Message No: V1324.

ZNLC is the item category that we used in the intercompany delivery document.

We are able to ignore this message in sales order screen and save the credit memo request in VA01 and also create credit memo (ZG2) in VF01.

Pl provide your inputs on whether we are missing any other configuration.

Regards,

John

Hello..

Did you checked the copy control in item level between the credit memo to billing doc ?

Hi

I have maintained the item level copy control settings as below.

In the copy control (VTAF) between ZCR (Credit memo request) and ZIV (Inter company billing) at the item level for ZNLC (Inter company item category coming source document), the following setup has been maintained

Copying requirements : 303

Copy schedule lines : Blank

Pos / neg qty : Blank

Pricing type : D

Update doc flow : X

Do not copy batch : blank

Pl let me know if there are any other settings to be done in config.

Thanks,

John

There is actually another blog with this same issue and resolution.  I had the same issue but here is the solution.  All you need to do is add an entry in the 'Screen Sequence Group' field (TVAP-POSGR) of the IC item category (NLC in standard).  By default SAP does not assign a screen seq because it is usually only used for IC billing and not orders.
