3326919 - No open billing quantity has been determined - S/4HANA Cloud

Error message 'No open billing quantity has been determined error message' (VF147) is triggered when creating a billing document.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

1. Go to "Create Billing Documents" app.

2. Insert Sales Order ID and select Billing type (e.g. F2(Invoice)).

3. Error message is displayed.

The error message indicates that the system encountered a problem when determining the billing quantity for the target billing document type (on this example F2 Invoice).

First step is to understand what is the Billing Quantity rule determined on Copy Control settings for the scenario Document flow. The Billing Quantity Indicator specifies which quantity the system copies from the source document (a sales order, for example) into the target billing document (an invoice, for example).

Example:When creating an invoice for a standard sales order item, for example, the quantity that the system copies into the invoice is the delivery quantity minus the quantity already invoiced. when creating a pro forma invoice, the system copies in the order quantity.

In the respective fictitious scenario: Copy Control settings from Sales Document to Billing Document > Target Billing Document type: F2, Source Sales Document type: OR, and Item category: CB1 (3rd Party with SN.) Billing Quantity is 'E' Goods receipt quantity minus invoiced quantity. In this case, if Goods receipt was not created for Purchase Order, system will not be able to determine Billing Quantity, hence error message will be triggered.

Other causes might be related with free of charge items, such as:

1. It is not possible to create a billing document when only free charge item exists in the preceding document.
2. Since the item is free of charge in PO, no subsequent MM invoice receipt gets generated for this item. Invoice receipt quantity is 0 and no billing quantity can be determined.

This is standard system behavior. It is recommended to review the billing quantity rules according to business needs and the S/4HANA Cloud Best Practices Explorer.
