How to maintain copy control from preliminary billing document to billing document

[kyle10]

I have condition types entered manually in sales order creation. After creating a preliminary billing document from sales order, it goes through approval workflow. Once PBD is approved, I have a scheduled job for creation of billing documents from preliminary billing documents. Upon checking of billing document, the conditions I have maintained in sales order are removed. Is there a way to maintain copy control or pricing type for billing document creation from preliminary billing documents?

Hello @kyle10 

Within SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud, manual pricing conditions from sales orders are not retained when creating billing documents from Preliminary Billing Documents (PBDs) due to the standard pricing re-determination logic. This behaviour is expected because copy control and pricing type settings are pre-delivered and not customer-editable.

Recommended Actions:

• Enter manual conditions in the PBD, rather than the sales order.
• Use the Custom Logic app (BAdI: SD_BILLINGDOC_ITEM_PREPARE) to enhance billing behaviour and retain manual pricing if available.

Kind regards

Chuma

Hi Chuma!

I tried entering the manual conditions after creating the preliminary billing document. But upon billing document creation, prices are redetermined again and the manual entries are removed. I think the default pricing type behavior for preliminary billing document to billing document is "G".

Sadly, the BAdI you mentioned is not available in our system.
