 Generating Further Invoicing Plan Dates

If you have assigned a periodic invoicing plan to a PO item but have not initially defined invoicing dates covering the entire validity period of the purchase order, you can generate further dates in due course.

Example Example

You have created a PO item with a periodic invoicing plan for a certain planned procurement. The purchase order is valid from 1.1. to 12.31. When creating the invoicing plan, you specified one invoicing date per month for the first half of the year. You have not yet planned any dates for the second half of the year because you do not wish information from the invoicing plan to be passed on to purchase order commitments at this stage, for example.

By mid-June, it is clear that the PO is to proceed as envisaged, and you therefore wish to schedule invoicing dates for the remainder of its validity period.

End of the example.

Procedure

To schedule further invoicing dates, proceed as follows:

  1. Choose Start of the navigation path Purchase order Next navigation step Follow-on functions Next navigation step Period. invoicing plan End of the navigation path

  2. Specify the purchase orders for which invoicing dates are to be generated in the invoicing plan and perform the function.

A log can be created if desired.

Result

The system adds further dates on the basis of information such as the validity period or horizon from Customizing, the purchase order, and the invoicing plan.
