INCLUDE NA_SYSADMIN1 OBJECT DOKU ID TX

Procedure for System Administrators

You have the following alternatives:
Post the document directly in FI-CA Contract Accounts Receivable and
Payable.
Create the SD billing document using a billing type for which the
billing category ensures that the billing document is transferred
directly to FI-CA (billing category unequal to U).
In contract accounts receivable and payable, the document can be posted
in currency &v2&.
If the error occured in the FI/CO interface and an SD billing document
already exists, then this document must be reversed first.
Change the document currency in the SD order
To change the document currency in the order header, you must reverse
the whole process in SD.
If the error occured in the FI/CO interface and an SD billing document
already exists, then this document must be reversed. This also applies
to any existing delivery.
Do not change the currency in the contract account, since this affects
billing in IS-U.
