Symptom
When you invoice an external billing document request the header text won't be transported to the invoice header. Instead those texts appear at invoice item level.
Environment
- Sales and Distribution (SD)
- SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition from version 1711 on
- SAP S/4HANA from version 1809 on
Reproducing the Issue
- Access the FIORI Launchpad with a user role, that allows the user to create an EBDR. For example SAP_BR_BILLING_CLERK.
- Open the app "Create Billing Document Request" and create an EBDR with a header text
- Open the app "Create Billing Documents" and look for the created EBDR
- Mark that object in the table and click on "Create"
This process is just an example. You can create billing document request in various ways.
Cause
- The functionality works as designed
- The "Billing Info for Customer" is not transferred to BillingHeader but to the Items of the Billing Document
- This is needed as in case of convergent billing the system cannot transfer all texts to Billing Document Header
Resolution
- If you still want to change that behaviour, you can change the default text flow using the configuration item "Text Determination" in app "Configure Your Solution"
- In the configuration step "Set up Text Determination for Billing Header" you can change the Access Sequence 600 and add the flow from Sales Document Header to Billing Document Header
- The configuration should look like that:
