This SAP note describes an issue where VPRS cost is not set for batch items when billed before goods issue. The standard behavior is that the product batch is not defined at billing time, so no VPRS is determined. The note provides a workaround involving setting the billing relevancy and creating a separate item category for the batch split item to allow VPRS to be determined and set during delivery-related billing before goods issue. The solution outlined is a non-standard workaround and inquiries on this topic require chargeable remote consulting.

1. SAP Note
Header Data
Symptom
If items with materials to be handled in batches are billed delivery-related and before goods issue
(copying requirement 011:'Delivery-related header without GI'), then no VPRS cost is set on the item
condition screen of the batch main item in the billing document, although the respective item
category 'Cost determination' is set in Customizing.
Other Terms
VPRS, batch, EVRWR
Reason and Prerequisites
Standard behavior:At the time of billing, the product batch is not yet defined, therefore no VPRS is
determined.
Solution
1. Relevancy for billing 'A' (relevant for delivery-related billing documents) must be set for
the item category of the batch main item (for example TAN).
2. Create a separate item category (for example ZTAN) for the batch split item by copying TAN,
which then only differs from the original item category in that the relevancy for billing is set
to ' ' (not relevant for billing).
3. Entry in the 'Delivery item category determination' (T184L):
DlvT ItCG Usg. ItmC ItmC
LF NORM CHSP TAN ZTAN
4. USEREXIT_PRICING_TKOMP (RV60AFZZ) as described in the corrections
Note that the solution outlined here is a 'workaround' which is not included in the
standard system. Inquiries and problem notifications on this topic do not fall into the
area of 'Support'. They are edited in the course of the chargeable remote consulting.
