Study Notes

Pricing & Billing Documents

Billing document creation: Using a pricing-relevant billing item category forces automatic price determination.
Pricing types in copying control: Relevant pricing types, chosen at header or item level in copying control, influence price determination.
Billing categories: The Business Rule Framework Plus (BRFplus) enables combining billing categories like one-time, recurring, and usage-based.

Partner Functions & Determination

Partner Determination Procedures: Assigned to delivery types, delivery item categories, and customer hierarchy nodes.
Partner Functions in Sales Documents: Assign partner functions to relevant roles in partner master data.
Copy Control & Partner Functions in Customer Master: Include the forwarding agent partner function in copy control from the customer role of the business partner master to sales documents.

Technological Concepts

Real-time Operational Reporting: Core Data Services provides access to live transactional data, enabling real-time operational reporting.

Sales Order Processes

Rush order: Activated in customizing: A delivery document is created automatically after saving the sales order.
Partial deliveries: Enabled by setting partial deliveries to be allowed for each sales order item.
Customer Consignment Process: Material sent to the customer is valued in the delivering plant. Warehouse tasks are used for returns.

Outline Agreements

Value Contract: The customer agrees to purchase a fixed total value of goods and services during a specific period.
Quantity Contract: Defines fixed delivery dates and quantities for specific goods and services.

Organizational Structure & Configuration

Organizational Structure: Assign multiple plants to one company code, allowing for flexible business operations.
Supply Chain Unit: Represents strategies and processes to fulfill customer requirements.

Inventory Management

Picking Documents: Stock transport orders and outbound deliveries can both be configured for picking in SAP S/4HANA.
Consignment Processing: Consignment stock is mapped using a separate plant; consignment stock is relevant for billing.

Sales & Customer Master

Customer-Vendor Integration (CVI): Requires assigning a business partner role to a partner type for using business partners as customers in sales documents.

Data Management & Text Elements

Incompleteness procedures: Can be assigned to material types, item categories, schedule line categories, and partner functions.
Text Determination Procedure: Used to ensure changes to sales order text are visible in corresponding delivery text through text types and access sequences.

Sales Order Structure & Processes

Sales Orders & Delivery Items: Ensure consistent data in fields affecting inclusivity, like "Delivery Date" and "Ship-to party", when combining multiple sales orders in a delivery document.
Cash Sales: Invoice is printed from the order, order and delivery creation happen in two steps, and the invoice amount is posted to a cash account.
Standard Order Process: Different from a rush order, the standard process performs a stock availability check.

Pricing

Pricing Elements: Condition Limits, Requirements, Formulas, Variant conditions, and New field for pricing are used for complex pricing scenarios.
Discount Distribution: Use a header condition to automatically distribute discounts among sales order items based on net value.

Other Processes

Sales Document Types: Configure the default billing type to be used for order-related or delivery-related billing.
Partner Origin: Partners' origins in a sales order can include a customer hierarchy, or a preceding condition contract.
Shipping Point: Loading group, plant, delivery type, weight group, and shipping condition are involved in determining a shipping point.
