5. Billing the installations (mass billing)

6. Invocing the created billing documents

7. Print the invoices

The prerequisite for this process is that master data must exist in the system

1.5 Install Device in the Installation

2) Create Business master data

2.1 Create Business Partner

2.2 Create contract account
