3038805 - Which date is used as pricing date in Project Billing apps?

Symptom

In app Release Billing Proposals/Manage Project Billing, for Time and Expense, it is unclear which date is used as pricing date to fetch the condition rate maintained in Manage Prices app.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud

Reproducing the Issue

Taking below sample data as example.

1. In Manage Prices app, there are 2 conditions maintained within the same month as below.
  Valid from,     Valid to   ,         Rate
   03.01.2021,   03.10.2021  ,  100 USD
   03.11.2021,   03.31.2021   ,  150 USD 

2. Post time recording with service date = 03.05.2021.
3. In Release Billing Proposals/Manage Project Billing app, the 2nd rate (150 USD) will be used to calculate the billing amount.

Cause

The current system behavior is that the billing is to be done period wise.
Therefore, for Time and Expense, the system will always take the last day of month as pricing date to fetch the rate.
For above sample date, the last day is 03.31.2021, thus, the 2nd condition rate will be used. 

Resolution

This is the current system design.
For some specific business requirement to maintain multiple different condition rates within the same month, it is not supported yet.
