Posting Billing Documents Subsequently 

Use

The function Posting Billing Documents Subsequently allows you to post in Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) billing documents that have already been posted in Financial Accounting (FI). This is particularly useful if you implement CO-PA after SD and you wish to import the data for the current or previous periods to CO-PA.

You can run this program in the test mode to check your data for errors before actually transferring it to CO-PA.

Prerequisites

Before you can transfer billing data subsequently to Profitability Analysis, the controlling area you are working in must be activated. You do this in Customizing.

Activities

You can find this function in Customizing under the option Tools ® Production Startup ® Subsequent Posting of Billing Documents.

On the selection screen, you can specify which billing documents you want to transfer. The flag Check for existing billing documents is set by default. This means that the program checks that the billing documents have not already been posted to CO-PA.

If you deactivate this flag, the system will not check for existing data. In this case, you need to make sure that no billing documents are transferred to Profitability Analysis more than once.
