A/P Invoice - Dates

A client's business practice with their current system is to enter the date on the vendor's invoice and have this, plus the payment terms calculate the due date.
In B1 we just have posting date. We can't enter the vendor's invoice date because the period in which the date falls may already be closed.
I am thinking of adding a UDF to the A/P invoice to accept the invoice date, and putting a formatted search in due date field.
Any comments on this? Or is there a better solution?
Thanks!

So, you just need to have a "vendor's invoice date" in addition to the posting date + want to calculate the due date based on it?
Then, I think your solution is OK.
I wouldn't know a better one.

Frank

Query on fetching the no.of days between Invoice date and due date in rtf template embedded BI Publisher Report

Hi Experts,

it's good for ideas but implementation a bit different
Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher Report Designer's Guide
This function provides a method to get the difference between two dates in the given locale. The dates need to be in "yyyy-MM-dd" format. This function supports only the Gregorian calendar. The syntax is as follows:
<?xdoxslt:date_diff(‘format’, ‘YYYY-MM-DD’, ‘YYYY-MM-DD’, $_XDOLOCALE, $_XDOTIMEZONE)?>
where
format is the time value for which the difference is to be calculated
Example:
<?xdoxslt:date_diff(‘d’, ‘2006-04-08’, ‘2006-04-01’, $_XDOLOCALE, ‘America/Los_Angeles’)?>
returns

Receivable Aging Report for India based on Invoice Date

We have a reporting/legal need for our India location to report the aging of their receivables based on the invoice date of the documents rather than the net due date. Is there an existing report available that already does this?
Currently when you use FBL5N and related aging reports RFDOPO10 etc. it calculates the arrears from the net due date. They need to calculate the arrears from the document date.

The report S_ALR_87012168 still does not allow me to choose that I want to calculate the arrears from the document date rather than the net due date:
I guess what they really need to know is how old the receivables are based on the date they were created.
As in the example below, current aging reports use the Net Due to calculate a days in arrears of 6 days (based on current date of 2008/11/05).
Ty Doc. Date Pstng Date Bline Date Net due dt Arrea
RV 2008.09.30 2008.09.30 2008.09.30 2008.10.30 6
What they need is the number of days in arrears based on the document date (2008.09.30) which would increase the numer of days the receivable has been open to 36.

Custom Table for Verifying Duplicate Invoice against Legacy Invoice Data

Hi All,
We are trying to upload legacy invoice data in a custom table. Then we want to use SAP duplicate invoice check functionality to look for the potential duplicate invoice from this custom table as well apart from the standard SAP tables.
If you know of some user exit or any function module which I can use to link this custom table with the standard SAP duplicate invoice check functionality then it would be of great help.
Regards,
Sanjay

Hi Jurgan!
Thanks for the reply,
We are using ECC6,
Support pack : SAPKH60013
Settings for Duplicate Invoice Check In Vendor Master is correct
Customization setting OMRDC transaction, tick mark for invoice reference no. only
If all the cited characteristics match, the system displays a
customizable message. M8462 (if logistics invoice documents are found) or M8108 (if accounting documents are found).
I have ensured that message M8108 (if accounting documents are found) is maintained as an error message in OMRM.
Still system is allowing duplicate invoices for the reference nos. 00082 and 00072.
For other reference Nos. which are previously used for other documents, system issues error message successfully.
I dont want to delete archived accounting doc. and if I maintaind BKPF entris of this archived doc manually it will create probelm in FI.
is this happen due to life span of secondory index of archived accounting doc. is completed ?.
Please Help
Many Thanks

AR aging basing on Invoice date

Currently client gets AR aging based on Due Date. For audit purpose they need AR Aging based on Invoice Date. During SAP implementation they were instructed to use document date as invoice date and generate a dump from FBL5N and do the aging. However this does not work for balancing items as the document date changes to the date on which the partial clearing of that item was done. This is not acceptable to auditors.
Please help.
Any useful answer will be rewarded with points.

Hi
Please try to use the field Baseline date for this purpose as this field will not be disturbed even when we do partial clearing of invoices.
Reward points if found useful.

Invoice Date needs to be date when Customer receives goods

Client when shipping by sea would like the Invoice Date to be the same day the customer received the goods, basically the Pick Up Date even though the delivery might have been 'shipped' from the jetty.
How can this be done? Would the Invoice Date be the Pick Up date?
Sanjib

Hi,
I guess you're asking about OM shipping and AR invoices. If you have invoicing at line level, as soon as you ship a line, OM insert a line into AR interface and this line is ready to be imported into AR. If you ship from USA to Europe by sea it will take about 10-15 days to goods be delivered. As invoice date is defined when you import it into AR, in order to achieve your requirement, you will not be able to import your invoice into AR and will not have info on Receivables. Or do you want to import your invoice into AR as soon as goods are shiped and change the invoice date when customer receives them?
In the first option, you could do the following: define two AR batch sources: AIR and OTHER, for example. The first one will be used to sea shipping and the second one to ground or air shipping. In the first AR batch source, uncheck derive date. In OM, define two order types: OT_AIR and OT_OTHER, one to sea shipping and other one to ground/air shipping. In order type AIR, define AIR as batch source, and in OT_OTHER define OTHER as batch source.
Normally import your transaction with batch source OTHER into AR. For the orders shipped by sea, you will have to import them one by one. As soon as you receive the customer acks, go to ar autoinvoice and import the order received by the customer and define as default transaction date the date informed by the customer.
I know it is not a good solution, so I think you will need some custom to have it done.
Hope it helps,

Excise and commercial invoice date

Hi,
Generally commerical invoice will take actual PGI date. But my requirement is it should take the excise invoice date.
If it is possible. Plz tell the process.

Since excise invoice would be generated only after creating billing document, your requirement should be vice versa.
In fact, normally, excise people wont pre-date the excise invoice. So in that case, your requirement can be met in such a way that as and when the billing document generated, it should consider the system date. By this, your excise invoice will also be the system date.
For more information check this thread

Invoice data repeating Address after page break

Hello forum mebers,
i have a problem to create a rtf template which prints invoice data with more than one address.
The original data has more than one invoice to print all papers within one output.
It is for repeat printing. I want to mark several invoices to print.
The source data is splitting into header information (Address,Invoice number,summaries), invoice positions and company information (client).
How to create the xml source ?
How to create the word rtf template to repeat the invoice address on each page also if the first invoice has more than one page.
I have tried the <?template feature, but this only repeats the first address of the data.
I have tried the <?start:body feature, but this creates all addresses on the first page.
I have tried the <?split-by-page-break feature, but this creates no repeating address header.
I am clueless.
Do you have any help or example for this problem ?
Regards
Frank

Hallo Jorge,
danke für die Antwort und das RTF, aber soweit war ich auch schon.
Wenn mann jetzt noch sortiert nach ID und einen Header (template) und Footer hinzufügt, funktioniert es nicht mehr.

Tax code on the basis of Invoice Date in MIRO

Hi Gurus!
Tax rate change from 12.5% to 15 % is due on 1st October in NZ._________________
Client requirement is that in MIRO transaction w.r.t. PO instead of the tax code being picked up from PO, the Tax code should be picked up depending upon the Invoice Date. _____________
For Eg. Tax rate changes from 12.5% to 15% on 1/Oct/2010,
Invoice Date = 20/Sep/2010, Posting Date = 20/Sep/2010, Tax Code = H1 (12.5%)
Invoice Date = 20/Sep/2010, Posting Date = 01/Oct/2010, Tax Code = H1 (12.5%)
Invoice Date = 01/Oct/2010, Posting Date = 01/Oct/2010, Tax Code = H3 (15%)
Is there a way this can be achieved?
Kind Regards,
Mehul

Hi Mehul,
We just had such situation in Canada.
It is recommended not to change the tax rate in the Tax code which is being used in open invoices because that could cause reporting and discount problems. And I am sure there will be open invoices with tax rates 12.5% come october 1. The solution is:
Create a new Tax code in transaction code FTXP with rate 15%( effective date Oct 1 and set the same GL Tax account) everything as old tax code except for 15% which will used for POs initiated from Oct1 onwards. For PO's prior to Oct 1. just use the same tax code with 12.5%.
During MIRO the Tax code/rate used in PO will be default, you will have the option to go with old Tax code-12.5% or new tax code 15%.

The Invoice date should hold the GR date by default

Hi SDners,
I have a requirement.
When the Billing is done in MIRO, the user wants the field Invoice Date to be automatically populated with GR Date.
Guide me as to where i need to do the coding for the same.
Should this be coded in the user exit?
Regards,
SuryaD.

Hi ,
Obviously you have to use an user exit. Kindly search for the same on SCN.

In FB60, duplicate invoice check does not work if invoice date is different

In FB60, duplicate invoice check does not work if invoice date is different
This issue is in FB60 and not MIRO.
Duplicate invoice check is activated in vendor master.
I posted an invoice for a vendor with amount $ 100, Reference 1234 Invoice date Nov 01, 2011
I tried posting for same vendor (and also Co Code) with amount $ 100, Reference 1234 Invoice date Nov 01, 2011. System does not allow. This is fine.
Now I change only date, from Nov 01 to Nov 02, and system allow posting.
Why I don't get the error message when date is different ? It should not be treated as a different invoice since invoice reference, amount, Vendor and Co Codes are same.
SAP documentation says that it checks document date during duplicate invoice check even for FI invoices, then why does it allows in this case.
Is this a bug ?
I already tried changing settings in SPRO under LIV, this does not impact FB60 invoice booking.
Thanks
Sandeep

Hi,
Use BTE - 1110 - (Check on Invoice Duplication) for FB60. Take the help of your ABAPer to make a coding in Function module mentioned in BTE.
Need to make a copy of the FM and then you can do relevant coding.
refer the link.

Formating Invoice Date field to display in Japanese format 2012年2月22日

Hi ,
I need expert help in Crystal reports for formatting a field which contains date in Japanese format.
I need to develop a Japan report that has invoice date as 2012年2月22日 which means 22-Feb-2012.
Thanks,
Ravi

Thanks.. you saved my time.
I have found the solution for this issue
totext(year({shiphead.ShipDate}),0) & '年' & totext(month({shiphead.ShipDate}),0) & '月' & totext(day({shiphead.ShipDate}),0) & '日'
However your solution looks good. Short and sweet.
totext({shiphead.ShipDate}, 'yyyy年MM月dd日')
Thanks,

Purchase Order date vs Invoice date

Hi to all.
In our system we run t-code me21n to create purchase order and later on we run t-code MIRO, MIR7 etc. to post incoming invoice. My question is how do I prevent system from letting end users enter invoice date that has earlier date than purchase order? Let's say purchase order was created on December 3-rd, but end users enter as an "invoice date" in the t-code MIRO December 2-nd and system lets it go through, not even warning message. What I want to accomplish is to create "E" message and not let end-users enter invoice date earlier than purchase order date.
Help is sincerely appreciated.
Regards,
Nazim

Thanks for your reply.
Our R3 system is designed for government funded organizations. The issue is that government funded organizations are not supposed to have PO entered in the system until they are provided with funds which are quite often get delayed because of all the paper work that has to take place. Suppliers know about it and quite often they supply goods to budget organizations even before PO are in place. Once the budget organization receives the funds that they can spend, they enter PO details and invoice details but it turns out that invoice date is earlier than PO date. At very least we would like to have our system give a "W" message.

Difference between Invoice Date, GL Date and Accounting Date Oracle AP

Hello,
I have a question that might help a lot of people too later.
I tried to run these queries
select aia.INVOICE_ID
from AP_INVOICES_ALL aia, AP_INVOICE_DISTRIBUTIONS_ALL aida
where aia.INVOICE_ID = aida.INVOICE_ID
and aia.INVOICE_DATE <> aida.ACCOUNTING_DATE
select aia.INVOICE_ID
from AP_INVOICES_ALL aia, AP_INVOICE_DISTRIBUTIONS_ALL aida
where aia.INVOICE_ID = aida.INVOICE_ID
and aia.GL_DATE <> aida.ACCOUNTING_DATE
I can see that there are lot of results for these queries, where the Invoice Date is not equal to the Accounting date and the GL_Date of an invoice is not equal to the accounting date in the distributions table.
So, what is the difference between these dates.
And if I had to take the Invoice Accounting document entry date, which date do i have to take for these invoices in AP
Thanks
Bob

Hi
Let me try to explain this with an example.
Suppose I buy some stationary from a vendor and he provides me with a detailed invoice of the goods puchased.
In this case the invoice will always have a date printed on it and this date should ideally be entered in the invoice date at AP_INVOICES_ALL level.
Now suppose the invoice happens to be received by me in february and for some reason I could not capture the invoice in my books in february and made a provision for the liabilities and close the books.
However in march i want to book the invoice say on 10th of march in my books and pay the vendor the amount payable.(I Have to reverse the already provided liability in march to reverse the accounting effect).
In this case my book entry date of invoice is the accounting date i.e. 10 March.
In case of oracle, the accounting is maintained so that the invoice header hits the liability account while the invoice distribution hits the charge account(expense account so to say). And to gain more flexibility oracle provides date in both header and distributions to provide an option of booking liability and charge on different dates..
As per the 11i checks there is no check on any of these dates except that accounting date at header and ditribution level must be in an open AP and GL period.
Thanks
MAV.
