Invoice Consolidation Impacts

[Former Member]

Hello,

We have a request to consolidate multiple OBD's into one invoice. All the data from the sales order is same except that ship-to on each order is different. We have figured out what to change in copy control to achieve this. The consolidated invoice will have the individual ship-to at the item level and no ship-to at the header (using custom partner determination procedure).

I just want to understand if this change has any adverse effects. We will be implementing this only for one market and only one payer within that market using custom logic.

Are there any negative impacts to this process?

Note: Invoice list is not an option hence taking the above approach.

Appreciate your feedback

Thanks

In standard, billing split will happen based on various parameters including partner function. These partner functions are SP, BP & PY. Having said that, not sure, how come, you have concluded that invoice split has happened because of SH is different in each sale order. Have a look at OSS note 11162

Hi Lakshmipathi,

Thanks for your response. My question is more regarding the impacts of doing invoice consolidation this way and not whats causing invoice split. We know whats causing invoice split and how to overcome it. We just want to understand if this has any impact on any other processes - like BI Reports, tax reports, Credit and Debit notes and so on.

Thanks
