Documentation

Definition

If you enter the Include Billing Key Date value in this field, invoicing units are created based on the Joint Invoicing setting in the contract and the billing key date. This enables you to only joint invoice billing documents that originate from an identical period (for example, all billing runs from 2003/1 are grouped together).

You can specify that this function is executed in dialog mode. In this mode, you can determine which documents are grouped together.

If an invoicing unit is canceled, then the subsequent invoicing units from the same contract account are not invoiced.

Use

The Joint Invoicing value has the following effects:

• Only mandatory contracts that have the same billing key date are grouped together.
• All billing documents from optional contracts are allocated to mandatory groups that have the same billing key date.
• Exclusive contracts are sorted into groups based on billing key dates. This means that only billing documents that have the same billing key date are put into the same groups.
