Create Customer Self-Billing Invoice
Explanation
Use this activity to create a customer invoice from the customer self-billing invoice. The customer self-billing
invoice contains information used for creating the actual customer invoice, which is posted and paid for in the
same way as the customer invoices that are not created from self-billing.
You do not need to perform this activity if the matching type on the Customer/Order/Message Defaults tab
is set to either "Auto Match, Create Invoice" or "Auto Match, Create and Post Invoice", as the
customer invoice would be created automatically.
Prerequisites
- There must be a customer self-billing invoice in the Preliminary status.
- The customer self-billing invoice must contain at least one line.
- The customer self-billing invoice must have an SB reference number.
System Effects
- A customer invoice of the SELFBILLDEB type will be created, along with the lines to be invoiced as displayed
in the relevant Customer Self-Billing Invoice window.
- If the customer self-billing invoice contains lines from several sites, a customer invoice will be created
for each of the sites.
- All the charges that are connected to the customer order lines (but have not been invoiced), will be included
in the customer invoice.
- The customer self-billing invoice will be set to the Invoice Created status.
- If customer order lines had been delivered on different dates, the latest delivery date will be the latest of
all these delivery dates. Note that in determining the latest date, only delivery dates of invoiced lines are
considered.
In case of goods that are delivered to customer consignment stock, the date of delivery is considered as the date
on which consumption notification is registered.
If an invoice line had been created through the staged billing process before delivery, the latest delivery date
will be null. If the invoice is created after delivery, the latest date of all the delivered lines will be
shown.
- Self-billing invoice can only be created in the order currency. If an invoice currency, different from the
order currency, is entered on the customer order header, that currency cannot be used on the self-billing
invoice.
