EPP (Budget Billing Plan, procedure 3) conversion issue with curr diff amnt

Former Member

We are currently facing issue in migrating EPP accounts from legacy system ECC.

Scenario u2013

Go live u2013 March 20011.

Move in date of contract is = bill end period of last bill in legacy + 1 day

Customer was on EPP in legacy from Jan 2011 to Dec 2011

We are trying to start a new EPP in ECC from March 2011 to Dec 2011

Problem is due to current differential amount from legacy. This amount in ECC get created with main 0150 and sub 0010/0020 with dunning lock, clearing restriction 3 .

My query is - How can we convert this item during migration so that from the start month March in ECC, it behave like a normal/standard ECC plan.

Is it possible to migrate the current differential amount?

Thank for your help.

Regards,

Sanjoy

Hi Sanjoy

We went through a very similar experience in March 2010, migrating the unbilled installments from legacy into SAP.

The account balance being migrated as open items (EMIGALL Object - DOCUMENT) had to be split between what was currently due/un-restricted, and what was not due/having restriction 3. our situation was further complicated by having to separate funds for water and electric within the overall restricted amount.

You also need to migrate the historical $$ amounts of installments invoiced in the legacy system for the currently active plan, so that at the end of the plan in SAP, there's 12 months $$/usage, otherwise the plans cannot recalc.

Simple answer is, yes it's possible to migrate the current differential amount.

Only issue we've seen is that the migrated restricted amount doesn't get netted out each month a new installment is invoiced, it's just credited back, and then redebited for the same amount.

I'm happy to answer more questions as the specifics come up. It took us a while to get the rules straight and get it extracted/loaded correctly.

Astrid.
