Documentation
Definition
You use this indicator to determine how and when the SD documents that are relevant for revenue recognition are updated.
You can make the following settings:
- 1: Immediate update of SD documents (for example, when billing documents are created)
- 2: Flag SD documents that are to be updated and update them later in transaction VF42 (Update Sales and Distribution Documents).
For more information, see SAP Note 781192 (initial value).
Note: You cannot deactivate the update of SD documents.
Use
The setting is only relevant for the Revenue Recognition application.
As soon as there are changes in the process chain, the SD documents that are relevant for revenue recognition must be updated. For example, goods issue, billing, or price changes in the sales document can cause a correction in the revenue lines.
Dependencies
The activation indicator is only ready for input if you have enabled Customizing for Revenue Recognition in the Customizing activity Activate SD Functions.
Error Message VA 313
Before it was possible to activate the SD document update using this indicator, the following error message controlled the update: message class VA, message 313.
- In the standard system, this message is a warning. Transaction VF42 (Update Sales and Distribution Documents) is used to activate the SD documents that are relevant for revenue recognition.
- If the message was flagged as an error message in your company (instead of a warning), the system immediately updated the SD document in the appropriate process step, such as during billing. This procedure can have a negative effect on performance, however.
For more information, see SAP Note 780993.
- If you now select an activation type for a company code in the Customizing activity Activate SD Functions, the system checks message VA 313 and automatically sets the relevant value when adding or initializing.
- Once you have saved the Customizing settings, message VA 313 is no longer relevant and only the selected update type in the Customizing activity controls how and when the SD documents are updated.
