Use this procedure at the beginning of the month to list contracts to be billed using ZVF0403 - Process billing due list.

  1. Get started (fast path)
  2. Scheduled Billing List: initial screen
  3. Scheduled Billing List: print/display and review

1. Get Started


2. Scheduled Billing List: initial screen

  1. Enter pre-billing selection data:

    Sales Documents (use default, which is range of existing documents)

    Period from: (use default = 7/1/98)

    Note: All contracts/billing schedules set up prior to this date are invoiced manually or in old system.

    Period to: (use default, which is end of current month)

    For example, on November 1 the "Period to" should be November 30.

    Billing type: (use default = ZSSB)

    Profit Center, Billing Block, etc.

    These fields are usually left blank.

    Under Print instructions, the default Report on screen is selected (as shown below).

  2. Click on to Execute.

    A sample report is shown in step 3. Contracts with errors are listed first (see below for an example); then contracts to be billed are listed in sponsor code order.

    CAF ???should we have a list of possible errors? this was only one listed in TST.


3. Scheduled Billing List: Print/Display and Review

  1. Compare the ZSSB results (authorized total, current invoice amount, and billing period - see sample screen below) with those obtained via COEUS.
  2. Consult OSP about any discrepancies found, so that they can be fixed - either in SAP or COEUS.
