In the portion you schedule billing and allocate budget billing cycles.

Using the scheduled billing date you control when periodic billing is to take place. In addition you specify how often this is to occur. This information is used to generate the schedule records.

You allocate the budget billing cycle that is normally used using the BB cycle field (this is the default cycle). If you use various budget billing cycles for this portion, you must also enter all possible budget billing cycles with the number of budget billing amounts to be collected. You also need to have created these budget billing cycles in the parameter record. An additional budget billing cycle is then used if the default cycle is overridden by a different entry in the contract. This may be necessary if the default cycle entered in the portion is 02 (that is, budget billings are collected every two months) but the customer wishes to pay monthly. The actual due dates for the budget billing amounts are determined when the schedule records are generated.

Example

A company uses a periodic billing procedure for its residential customers with a billing run each month. In this case you require at least 12 portions for the months January to December. Below, the portion for December is used as an example. In the parameter record general, the possible budget billing cycles entered are 01 (monthly) and 02 (bimonthly).

See also the example for the parameter record.

Periodic billing: 1st portion December

End of billing period 12/31/97 Period length 1 year

Scheduled billing date 12/20/97

Allowable date (cycle/BB) 01;11 02;05

Budget billing cycle 01

Billing class/division category TA 99

Annual consumption billing takes place in December. If the schedule records are generated up to the year 2000 the following dates are scheduled: 12/20/1998, 12/20/1999 and 12/20/2000 without using the factory calendar.

Eleven budget billing amounts are collected. The scheduling for the budget billing amounts is determined from the print/debit entry date (15th) specified in the corresponding parameter record. The budget billing amount due dates for 1998 are therefore as follows:
01/15/98, 02/15/98 ... 11/15/98

Requirements

You have defined the billing classes in Customizing. To do this, choose Utilities Industry -> Contract Billing -> Billing Master Data -> Define Billing Classes.

Activities

Define the portions that are relevant for your company.

Further notes

You can only generate schedule records if their date is later than that of the end of the billing period used in the portion. If the end of the billing period is on 12/20/99, then you cannot generate a schedule record for 12/20/98 with this portion.
