A single billing structure should be defined for each JVA company. The billing structure can be viewed as a billing variant used by the company.

Billing structures are defined by JVA region, which controls the way billing functionality operates. The billing structure determines which billing documents will be generated for the company's operated ventures or non-operating partners .

Example

Requirements

If your company will issue EDI billing documents to its partners, before defining the billing structure for the JVA company, you should define the EDI component identifier for supplemental detail.

Standard settings

When you have defined the billing structure for the JVA company, this billing structure must be assigned to the company on the JVA Company Detail Data screen.

Recommendation

Activities

The first step in defining a billing structure for the JVA company is to create the billing structure itself by selecting New Entries on the Billing Structures: Overview screen and entering the following information on the Billing Structures: New Entries screen:

In the Billing Structure field, enter the name of the billing structure.

In the Billing Structure Text field next to the Billing Structure field, enter a description of the billing structure.

There are two possible bases for determining capital expenditures. The JVA cost object type assigned to the WBS's or internal orders to which expenses are booked can carry a capital indicator. The JIB/JIBE code can determine whether the expense is capitalized. Only one of these methods can be specified for a company's billing structure. If the indicator Capital der. fr. JIBE is selected capital expenditures will be determined by the JIBE code. If you leave the indicator unselected, capital expenses will be determined by the JVA cost object type assigned to the CO cost objects to which the expenses are posted.

For each JVA company, billing documents are issued by partner or by venture. This selection is made on the billing structure. You should set the Invoice Level field to V if billing documents are to be generated for each venture. You should set the level to P if billing documents are to be generated for each partner including expenses for all the ventures in the company in which the partner holds a share.

Depending on which selection you make, you should assign a billing format, which customizes billing documents further, either to each partner or to each venture.

The various settings for Expenditure detail determine the levels of detail of information to be included in the paper expenditure detail document.

The settings for EDI determine the level of detail of information to be included in the supplemental detail generated for EDI.

When you have defined the billing structure for the JVA company, you should return to the Billing Structures: Overview screen and select the entry for the new billing structure and then Form routine assignment. This will enable you to specify the documents to be generated for the billing structure and the form routines within the billing program that will be used to generate billing documents on the Form Routines Used for Billing screen.

The possible entries in the fields on this screen are largely fixed. When there is a choice, you should rely on the IMG, help, and pick lists to make selections.

In the FT or form type field, you should enter a code for the type of billing document to be generated. Only the following form types are relevant to this screen:

Form    Description
Type

IV    Invoice

IN    Invoice (Norway)

EX    Expenditure detail

ST    Statement

You should always select the + field. Norwegian billing is an exception; this field should not be selected for Norwegian billing.

The entry in the Program field should always be RGJVBR15, the JVA program used to generate paper billing documents.

The contents of the FORM routine field depends on the document type selected in the FT or form type field. The following is a list of the form routines in the RGJVBR15 program and the form types to which they correspond.

Form    Form
Type    Routine

IV    CREATE_INVOICE

IN    CREATE_INVOICE

ST    CREATE_STATEMENT

EX    CREATE_EXPENDITURE
