SAP VA02 - Change Sales Order


Use these steps to change a sales order (or billing request; both are "sales documents") for a cost reimbursable project.

  1. Get started (SAP menu path, fast path)
  2. Change sales order: initial screen
  3. Change project order: overview
  4. Change project order: header data (including Payer)
  5. Change project order: item data
  6. Save changes

Notes: Re Sales Orders: To enter the primary sponsor's grant or contract number so that it will be printed on the bills for Statement of Expenditure (Form X015), see step 3.

To change the customer number on a sales order, you need to assign the sales order to an "inactive" WBS element (see step 5), and then create a new sales order with correct customer number.

Re Billing Requests: This transaction is the only way to modify a billing request after the billing block has been removed (for example, to Reject all line items). For billing requests that are blocked, you should use V.23.


1. Get Started


2. Change Sales Order: initial screen


3. Change Project Order: overview

Change project order: overview

You must enter the primary sponsor's grant or contract number on the Sales Order overview screen (above) under Purch.order no. to enable the primary sponsor's grant or contract number to print on bills for Statement of Expenditure (Form X015). To view a sample screen, click here.

You can display information about all billing requests for a sales order. To do so, select Environment -> Display document flow from the Change Project Order screen (shown here in steps 3 - 5).


4. Change Project Order: header data

To change header data,
