Invoicing outsorts – Program usage

When the program is executed, the user is presented with a set of parameters / select-options in order to select the appropriately required data and action it. The main selection screen is as follows:

The parameters are grouped into the 3 key areas:

Main Selection (Optional)

• Contract Account Number – Restricts the invoice out-sorts selected to the contract account numbers or range specified (field FKKVKP-VKONT).
• Business Partner – Restricts the invoice out-sorts selected to the business partner numbers or range specified (field FKKVKP-GPART).
• Standard Company Code – Restricts the invoice out-sorts selected to the standard company code related to the contract account (field FKKVKP-STDBK).
• Invoicing Out-sort Check Group – Restricts the invoicing out-sorts selected to the invoicing out-sort check group(s) specified (field FKKVKP-AUSGRUP_IN).
• Invoicing Document Number – Restricts the invoicing out-sorts selected to the invoicing document number range specified (field FKKVKP-OPBEL).

Additional Selections (Optional)

• Invoice Creation Date – Restrict invoicing out-sorts for the specified invoice creation date range (field ERDK-ERDAT).
• Invoice Creation User – Restrict invoicing out-sorts for the specified invoice creation user (field ERDK-ERNAM).
• Billing Transaction – Retrieve invoicing out-sorts for the specified invoice document reason (field ERDK-ABRVORG).
• Validation Rule – Restricts the invoice out-sorts selected to the specified validation rule(s) (field ERDK-VALIDAT_IN).

Tolerance Brackets (Optional)

• Percentage Tolerance Bracket – Puts the invoicing out-sorts that are found into brackets specified in the ranges set in this parameter. This is the percentage deviation from the expected amount. This means that both negative and positive ranges must be specified here in order to catch both those below the ranges specified and those above the ranges specified.
• Amount Tolerance Bracket – Puts the invoicing out-sorts that are found into brackets specified in the ranges set in this parameter. This is the amount deviation from the expected amount. This means that both negative and positive ranges must be specified here in order to catch both those below the expected amount and those above the expected amount.

NOTE: The above ranges are mainly used from a display perspective only. They have no impact on the actual processing of the invoicing out-sort apart from “grouping” those that are found into these “buckets” for output purposes.

Technical Settings

Node5 Architecture Settings – All Torch programs are Node5 Architecture programs and all Node5 Architecture programs have the ability to specify the amount of parallel processing and the interval “variant” to be used during execution. These are generic “technical” settings that are available under the button “Technical Settings” in the application toolbar. Since these settings are generic for all Node5 Architecture programs, a separate section in this document specifies the options that are available to you here.
