Maintain Copying Control For Billing Documents

In this menu option, you define control data for the document flow of billing documents.

You can specify for a particular billing type which document type is to be assigned to copied reference documents and which item categories are to be copied.

You must also make specifications for copying requirements and transferring data, as well as quantity and value updates in document flow. Do this for each copying procedure at header and item level on the appropriate detail screen.

Note

If you define new sales document types, item categories or schedule line categories by copying existing ones, the SAP system automatically copies all specifications for the document flow. You may want to check the copying controls for newly created sales document types, item categories or schedule line categories.
