Activation of the Extended SBI functionality

The Extended SBI functionality is available for companies defined in LN for which the Self-Billing (Sales) check box is selected in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.

For companies migrated from an earlier LN version without the Extended SBI functionality, you must activate the Extended SBI functionality to use this functionality.

For new companies, activation is not required.

The activation process consists of these steps:

  • In Preparation
  • Activate

In Preparation

After launching the In Preparation step, you must perform these activation activities:

  • Define Sold-To BP using Price Components
  • Upgrade Self-Billed Invoice Lines
  • Upgrade Billable SBI Lines

Define Sold-to BP Using Price Components

In this activation activity, you access the Sold-to Business Partners (tccom4510m000) session to select the Price Component in use check box for the relevant business partners.

Upgrade Self-Billed Invoice Lines

In this activation activity, the Upgrade Self-Billed Invoice Lines (cisli5205m100) session is used to update these self-billed invoice line fields with the values of their counterparts of the Self-Billed Invoices (cisli5100m000) header session:

  • Invoice-to Business Partner
  • Receipt Date
  • Self-Billed Invoice Type
  • Price Component
Note: 

You can run this session as often as needed before completing the activation activity. Any previously upgraded invoice lines will not be overwritten.

Upgrade Billable SBI Lines

In this activation activity, the Upgrade Billable SBI Line (cisli5230m000) session is used to create data for the Billable SBI Lines (cisli5130m000) session.

The Billable SBI Lines (cisli5130m000) session contains information about the billable lines for which a self-billed invoice is to be expected. This information supports matching billable lines of these correction invoice types:

  • Debit Note

You can run this session as often as needed before completing the activation activity. Any previously upgraded invoice lines will not be overwritten.
