The quality of the invoices submitted is a critical factor in achieving a high degree of automation, while at the same time securing a reduction in manual workload on both sides. Please be aware that your invoices cannot be processed without the required information and we will return any such invoices to the sender, thereby discharging our liability.Īn optimised invoice processing procedure reduces the processing time of your invoice and therefore facilitates on-time payment of your invoice amount as per the contractual agreement in place. If any of this information is missing, the invoice cannot be processed and therefore cannot be settled.Įxample DFS Deutsche Flugsicherung GmbH Eingangsrechnung Max Mustermann, VF/K, Am DFS-Campus 10 63225 Langen Alongside the corresponding DFS address, the first and last name of the person placing the order or the invoice recipient, as well as the DFS organisational unit must all be stated in the invoice address.

The invoicing processes use the function of the mass activity in FI-CA to split the dataset and distribute processing to different processes in order to reduce the processing time.Please ensure that your invoices include all information required under the German VAT Act (UStG) in its most recent version, as well as all contractually stipulated information and documentation required for DFS orders by the Procurement division at DFS, such as acceptance reports and timesheets. Parallel processing of the dataset is always possible. These enable periodic invoicing, independently of the existence of further source documents to be billed. Using scheduling, you can generate additional source documents. Special invoicing processes can process these source documents. In addition to billing documents that arise in the SAP system from the transfer of billing documents from external systems or from Billing in Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable, SD billing documents from the componentĪnd collective bills from FI-CA can also be understood as invoiceable billing documents. If the invoicing of a billing document is successful, the related invoicing order is deleted. Invoicing orders are created when a billing document is created and are used for specific selection of the billing documents not yet processed by an invoicing process. Invoicing orders must exist in order for an invoicing process to be started. The invoicing run can clear open items of an invoice with credit memo items of a contract account.

For example, in an invoicing run, you can change the contract accounts of the customers processed by the run. For invoice creation and posting, Invoicing in Contract Accounts Receivable and Payableuses FI-CA functions. You can integrate further FI-CA business transactions in the invoicing processes such that the customer can be informed of changes to the customer account with the invoice.
