Collective invoice simulation

[sudipkumarpatra]

Hi All,

Can I simulate collective parent invoice as there is no contract present for the Parent contract account.

Hi Sudeep,

As per my knowledge you can not simulate that. The prime reason being that as per standard SAP simulation process requires a billing doc in order to execute invoice simulation. But in case of collective a/c you do not have a bill doc of its own as it does not have a contract.

So as rightly said since contract is not there it is not possible to simulate collective invoicing.

Hi Sudip,

The collective invoice is generated from transaction EA10_COLL. There is a check box to generate simulated collective invoice document in the transaction.

If there is any child account where you have generated child invoice but the collective invoice is not generated yet, you can simulate the collective invoice in that case.

However you need to configure the number ranges for the collective invoice simulation document in SPRO in the following menu path.

1. SAP Utilities- Invoicing- Invoice Processing- Allocate Document Types to Print Documents

2. SAP Utilities- Invoicing- Invoice Processing- Define Document Types for Print Documents

3. SAP Utilities- Invoicing- Invoice Processing- Define Number Ranges for Print Documents

Hope this help.

Thanks,
