Spot Billing:

[Former Member]

Dear All,

In my project we have a scenario where for some consumers there is a facilty of spot biiling(Invoice genrated at consumer location using hand held devices). My doubt is do we need to genarate the same bill in SAP also (bcoz FICA posting depends on invoice genaration).Or is there any process the same bill can be reflected in SAP through some idocs or custom development?

If a separate bill is genrated in SAP then again we need to check and ensure that both the bills area exactly same (each line item)?

Any light on this would be of great help..

Thanx

Hello,

There are various types of Handheld devices which work on different logic,some handheld device intract with server on spot (thru GPRS) for validation and bill computation before printing bill at customer premise,while others have built in logic in handheld device to compute bill.I assum that in your case handheld device have built in calculation logic to generates bill to customer.

In this case at the end of day, the billing information from handheld device can be uploaded to SAP server using custom interface which can be either thru file handling or by using idoc and use Function modules to create Invoice and post it in FICA.

Hope this helps.
