Symptom
In 'Create Billing Documents (VF01)', the billing type field is automatically populated with billing type F2 after the 2608 upgrade. Prior to the upgrade, the field remained blank, and user can select the appropriate billing type after a reference document was entered.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Open the SAP GUI transaction Create Billing Documents (VF01).
- Observe that the Billing Type field is automatically prefilled with F2, instead of remaining blank.
Resolution
- This is a known issue, and a fix is currently planned for delivery after 12 October.
- As a workaround, for order-related billing documents (such as credit memo requests), use the 'Schedule Billing Creation' app and select the sales documents checkbox in the SD documents to be selected section.
- Alternatively, in the SAP GUI transaction 'Create Billing Documents (VF01)', manually select the blank entry for the billing type field in the default data section. This restores the previous behavior and serves as a temporary workaround until the issue is resolved.
