CONTRACT TYPE: TIME & EXPENSES - How to bill expenses?

Hi All,

I have recently sent a question regarding the 'Usage-based Billing' within 'Periodic service' contract type. I'd now need some help about 'Time and expenses'.

Is it possible to bill expenses based on the actual costs that were posted to a Wokk Package? Should we include cost elements that have to be taken into account so that we can then bill those expenses to the customer? 

Thank you in advance.

Best Regards,

Anna

Hi Ana,

Yes this is possible. Scope item J13 (section 4.2 specifically) walks you through procuring the services/expenses against the WBS element, and scope item J14 will cover the billing process to charge a customer for those expenses.

Hey Anna,

in order to be able to bill expenses to the customer, you need to post the expenses (supplier invoices) to a cost account that is part of one of the cost element groups YBPS_E001 - YBPS_E040. The system will then find, according to the postings, the correct expense material for billing. If no specific price is maintained for the E-Material, the actual costs will be forwarded to the customer invoice.

- YBPS_E001 --> Material E001

- YBPS_E002 --> Material E002

Example:

Cost posting against cost account 61009010 being part of cost element group YBPS_E001 will lead to billing material E001 in the invoice

If the cost account is not assigned to one of the cost element groups, the system will not recognize these postings during billing hence they will not be available for customer billing.

Best regards,

Tobias
