Maintain Date
Category for Invoicing Plan Type
In this step, you can assign one or more date
categories to each invoicing plan type.
If necessary, you can create new date categories.
Further
Notes
The date category determines:
- whether the invoicing date has an invoice
block (and, if so, which)
- the invoicing rule, which specifies how the
value to be invoiced on a certain date is to be determined
In the standard system, invoicing rule 2 ("value-based partial invoice")
specifies, for example, that the total invoice value is to be distributed
among the dates and that a certain part of the total value is to be invoiced
on each date.
- which description is taken for the invoicing
date
Note
In the standard system, the date category
"Final invoice" is not suggested but must be entered manually by the person
responsible during purchase order processing.
Requirements
The invoice blocks and date descriptions must
have been maintained.
Standard
Settings
Date categories for partial invoicing plans and
periodic invoicing plans are supplied in the standard system.
Activities
1. To create a
new date category, enter an alphanumeric key of max. two characters in length,

date category to the invoicing plan types that are to use it.
