Sales order BOM with different pricing in Invoice

[gaurav_narang]

Dear Experts,

Need your advice on the following requirement,

Business requirement : The sales order should contain a BOM with header pricing at the time of order creation so the BOM components have statistical pricing. But while creating the invoice, the components should have the real pricing. (The header item is not relevant for delivery and invoicing.)

For this requirement, I maintained the ERLA for the header item in material master so system determined TAQ (Header) and TAE (for components) but naturally the statistical pricing is not getting changed in the invoice. So eventually the net value of the invoice is 0. I tried tweaking the copy control, item category controls but not able to activate the pricing in the invoice.

Item category setup:

TAE:

Billing relevance : A (Delivery related billing)

Pricing: X

Statistical Value: X

TAQ:

Pricing : X

Kindly suggest if there is any standard solution available to meet this requirement in S/4 Hana.

Best regards,

Gaurav

You can have pricing either at header level or at item level during sale order creation and billing but not both

Hello what business case you are trying to achieve here by having two different price consideration in SO and invoice?

What is the problem in considering components level price in SO as well?

Hi,

The header item represents the contractual price agreed with customer to supply a list of spares parts within the limit of the total value of the header item. At the time of creating the sales order, they will not have the list of spare parts information so they first create the header item (which is similar to a generic item with no MRP) and this price is carried over to different other system for the purpose of different analytical/evaluations (Once the list of spares is ready, they will add these as components to the BOM header in CS05 and re-explode in the sales order). For this reason the item level pricing is not being accepted in the sales order.

As a result of that, the delivery document contains only the spare parts and they subsequently bill the end customer using standard F2 based on the actual quantity delivered. Hence the invoice cannot be zero value with this statistical pricing.

Hope this answers your query.
