3614457 - When creating the invoice based on the preliminary billing document, the output determination does not work correctly

Symptom

When creating the invoice based on the preliminary billing document, the output determination does not work correctly, as it fails to determine the channel as configured in the "Output Parameter Determination" app.

"Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental."

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Cause

One possible reason is the configuration activity “Activate copying of output items from prelim. billing docs to billing docs.” (ID: 104050), which has enabled the copying of output items from PBDs to BDs. As a result, the same output items present in the PBD should also appear in the invoice. 

Resolution

Deactive the configuration "copy output items (including attachments) form preliminary billing documents to billing documents" and test again.
