Credit memo and subsequent GL account

Dear All,
I would like to clarify 3 point below.
when i do credit memo on full quantity, the double entry is hitting vendor and GRC account.
when i do credit memo on part quantity, the double entry hitting vendor GRC and stock account also.
when i do subsequent debit or credit, double entry hitting vendor and stock account.
1) May I know why credit memo, full quantity only hit GRC whereas part quantity hit GRC and stock?
2) May i know why subsequent debit/credit hitting stock account only?
3) credit memo must have to create return PO? without return PO can?
Thanks

Hi
credit memos and subsequent credits can be used to adjust the amount due to the vendor.
we usually receive a credit memo from a vendor if you where overcharged.
as in case of invoice .creit memo refer to purchase orders or good receipt
when you post credit memo,the total invoice quantity in the po history is reduced by the credit memo quantity.the maximum quantity you can make a credit for is the quanitty that has alredy ben invoiced.
During Credit Memo, It is making same accounting entires as it makes during Invoice posting

Hello,
Subsequent Debit and Credits
After an Invoice is successfully posted and the transaction is completed, Vendor approaches with additional amount invoice or correction in Invoice.You would like to post this additional invoice with reference to the original PO and item. Subsequent Debit / Credit functionality allows you to capture this difference without canceling original invoice.
Please check this link

Credit memo and subsequent credit

Can anybody tell what is the difference between a Credit memo and subsequent credit memo.
I am finding the impact of both on the PO as same.

Hi,
The difference betwen them is that a credit memo quantity and amount are
affected but in subsequent credit only the amount is affected nor quantity.
For example.
You have in your po history.
GR    amount quantity
x        10          10
IR (normal invoice)
x       10           10
Credit memo
x      5              5
Now you have invoice 5 amount 5 quantity
if you made a subsequent for per example
amount 5
in your po history you have pending
0 amount an 5 quantity
This quantity you must regularize with transaction MR11
Transaction mr11 only regularize quantities but not amounts,so for this is used
subsequent credit/debit.
I hope my explanation helps you now to understand the differences.
Best regards.
Antonio.

Difference between Credit memo and subsequent credit

All SAP Gurus,
In MIRO, what is the difference between Credit memo and subsequent credit?
Regards,

Difference between Credit memo and subsequent debits/credits
Subsequent Debits/Credits are used in cases where the quantity is in the original invoice is to remain the same. For eg.
PO 10 - $10
Gr 10 - $10
LIV 10 - $11 (Logistics Invoice Verification)
The vendor invoice is more than that in the Purchase Order. In order to correct, the Vendor may send in another invoice for
the Increased amount or a credit memo for the increased amount.
If you approve of the price increase, post the subsequent invoice received as a Subsequent Debit/Credit Invoice.
If it is a credit memo that has been received, then post the credit memo as Subsequent Debit/Credit.
This would retain the quantity but reduce the amount.
Subsequent Debit/Credit is for the case when the credit is not for the full amount eg. if the Vendor decided to credit
only the $1 overcharged.
Credit memo is for the credit of the full amount and value.

Diff bet credit memo and credit memo request

Hi
Can any one tell the difference between Credit Memo and Credit Memo Request
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Below is the information on crdit memo request.
Definition: A credit memo request is a sales document used in complaints processing to request credit for a customer.
Use: If the price calculated for the customer was too high (for example, with the wrong scaled prices or because a discount was forgotten), you can create a credit memo request. The credit memo request can be automatically blocked for checking. Once it has been approved, you can remove the block.The system uses the credit memo request to create a credit memo.
Structure: A credit memo request is another type of sales document like a standard order. For more information on sales documents, see Working with Sales Documents.A credit memo request starts the billing process.
=============================================
Below mentioned is the information on Credit Memo.
Definition: The term credit memo always refers to a credit memo from the vendor. Therefore, posting a credit memo always leads to a debit posting on the vendor account.
Use: As in the case of invoices, credit memos refer to purchase orders or goods receipts. They are used to correct the purchase order history if the quantity invoiced was too high, for example, if an invoice was too high or if part of the quantity was returned.
When you post a credit memo, the total quantity in the purchase order history is reduced by the credit memo quantity.
If you do not want the total quantity invoiced to be reduced, you must post the credit memo as a subsequent credit.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if you need more information and please assign points.

Credit memo or subsequent ?

Hi
In bapi BAPI_INCOMIGNINVOICE_CREATE, how can I figure out when it will post credit memo and when it will post subsequent debit/credit?
Does the field INVOICE_IND in Header text detemines this?

Yes. Talk to your finance guy. However, following is my understand ...
it is a combination of multiple fields... Header/ item and GL account ..
if you want to create subsequent credit document - use atleast Header and item combination fields. It is been quite a while so i dont remember it exactly but try the combination....
headerdata-invoice_ind = space.
itemdata-de_cre_ind = 'X'. "Subseq'nt Credit.
glaccountdata-db_cr_ind = 'H' (Credit)
If you specify INVOICE_IND = Space and DE_CRE_IND (Item) = Space then it is INVOICE....
Correct me if I am wrong.... You could try the above combination to come out the correct info.

Diff: Linkage of Credit memo and Dispute Case in EHP 4 and EHP5

Hi Experts
I am bit confused ...on the Linkage of Credit memo and Dispute Case in EHP 4 and EHP5.
Does the following statement is valid in EHP4 or EHP5.
"You can add a credit to a dispute to close it or reduce the amount disputed."
If it is possible in EHP 5 or EHP 4, please let me know what is the procedure to follow?
If i need to activate anything in SFW5, please provide what is the Business function i need to activate.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Meenkashi.N

Linking a credit note has nothing to do with EHP4 or 5. You have to do a config sertting:
Dispute Management-Process Integration with Accounts Receivable Accounting-Assignment of Open Credits and Payments-Activate Assignment of Open Credits and Payments
And make sure the business adapts the correct process: When you reverse a charge on a debit invoice you have to make sure the credit is properly linked to the debit note.
If this is the case then the credit will show up in the dispute case.

Cancelling Credit memo not reverse the accounting document

Hello,
Hello,
We are facing pecular problem in production system when we Cancel the sales credit memo system is not genarating the reversal accounting document and it's genarating the entry same way credit memo.
When we do the credit memo it's passing accounting entry in the following way.
Posting key 11 with customer (credit entry)
Posting key 40 with revenue (debit entry)
Posting key 40 with tax (debit entry)
When we cancel the credit memo system is not passing the reversal entry and once again it's passing the same entry.
Posting key 11 with customer (credit entry)
Posting key 40 with revenue (debit entry)
Posting key 40 with tax (debit entry)
Could you some body explain me what is the problem
Regards,
Satya

Satya

Dear senthil
As I said earlier, once the accounting document is generated, the respective amounts will flow in debit / credit entry of the document flow.
Once you cancel the billing document, for this cancelled billing, one more accounting document will be generated and with this, the above entries would be vice versa. That is debit entries get credited and credit entries get debited and you cannot hide this from SAP
thanks

Hi,
to cance a cancellation document, check note 388489.
But the status of the original document won't change thus you cannot cancel it again. The solution is creating a debit memo.

AP Credit Memo and Good return, creates differences between TB and Stock Audit Report

Hello Experts,
Did any one has ever faced an issue, whereby AP Credit Memo and Good Return creates discrepancy between journal entry and the stock audit report?
Here is the scenario:
AP Credit Memo
Description
Quantity
Unit Price
Total
Item A
                30
            3,400
   102,000
Journal Entry :
Debit
Business Partner
     105,000
        Credit
                      Stock
     105,000
Inventory Audit Report
Description
Quantity
Cost
Transaction Amount
Item A
                        30
                     3,500
                                                105,000
Journal Entry :
Debit
Business Partner
     105,000
        Credit
                      Stock
        105,000
The difference is actually due to the moving average, but the strange part is why the difference is not posted in the journal entry, in the Price different account?
This makes the stock account amount to be different from the Trial Balance and the Stock Audit Report.
And this is applied also on the Good Return transaction.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Best Regards
Cedric Kayitare

Hi Cedric,
Price & Item cost are different.
while making goods return , Direct AP Credit Note, Sales Delivery, Direct AR Invoice, stock is going outside.
In these transactions Journal entry will happen for Item cost and not Item sales or Purchase price.
Please enable item cost field in line level and check whether above formulae is matching with Item, cost field.
Then what is the importance of price in these documents??
Price is the agreed selling or purchase price for trading with Customer and supplier.
In your example
You are returning back material worth 105000(as per moving average price), but supplier is supposed to give only you 102,000.
Hope you understand
Thanks

Debit note and Credit note? What is the purpose? How we create?
1. A transaction that reduces Amounts Receivable from a customer is a credit memo. For eg. The customer could return damaged goods. A debit memo is a transaction that reduces Amounts Payable to a vendor because, you send damaged goods back to your vendor.
2. Credit memo request is a sales document used in complaints processing to request a credit memo for a customer. If the price calculated for the customer is too high, for example, because the wrong scale prices were used or a discount was forgotten, you can create a credit memo request. The credit memo request is blocked for further processing so that it can be checked. If the request is approved, you can remove the block. The system uses the credit memo request to create a credit memo.
You can use credit memos in Sales and Distribution (SD) for assigning credit memo requests to the open invoices and in Financial Accounting (FI) for assigning credit memos and payments to the open invoices and carry out clearing with them. If you use both Financial Accounting (FI) and Sales and Distribution (SD), there is a 1:1 relationship between the credit memo request and the credit memo item posted in Financial Accounting (FI). As soon as you bill the credit memo request together with other sales orders, or distribute the items of one credit memo request to several billing documents, the assignment is no longer valid and the system will not process it.
For credit memos, credit memo requests, and payments, you have the following assignment options:
- Assignment to a single invoice
- Assignment of a partial amount to an invoice
- Assignment to several invoices
When you post credit memos, the payment programme processes them automatically. If the credit memo is specifically related to a particular open invoice item, the payment program automatically attempts to offset the credit memo against the open item. If it is not possible to completely offset the credit memo against an invoice, you can post a debit memo to the vendor, who is to reimburse the amount. Then you can apply a multilevel dunning program.
3. Debit memo request is a sales document used in complaints processing to request a debit memo for a customer. If the prices calculated for the customer were too low, for example, calculated with the wrong scaled prices, you can create a debit memo request. The debit memo request can be blocked so that it can be checked. When it has been approved, you can remove the block. It is like a standard order. The system uses the debit memo request to create a debit memo.
4. As mentioned above, creating a credit or debit memo request enables you to create credit or debit memos based on a complaint. For this first create a sales document with the order type for a credit or debit memo request. You can create the debit or credit memo requests in the following ways:
Without reference to an order
With reference to an existing order
Here you enter which order the complaint refers to.
With reference to an invoice
Here you enter which invoice the complaint refers to.
In all cases, you specify the value or quantity that should be in the credit or debit memo
5. You can block the credit or debit memo request from being billed in Customizing. Go to Sales -> Sales Documents -> Sales document header -> Define sales document type and select the billing block field in the billing section. This request can later be reviewed along with similar ones, - if necessary, by another department. The request for a credit or debit memo can then be approved or rejected.

Credit memo for subsequent acquisitions in Fixed Assets

According to the Fixed Asset help file - section Credit memo for Subsequent Acquisitions it Says " Fixed Assets *DOES NOT* allow posting a credit memo for a subsequent acquistion. What are the exactt circumstances in which Fixed Assets will block these credit memos. I have added subsequent Acquisitions and Fixed Assets appears to allow credit memo's where depreaction has not been run and also where depreciation has not been run. How does this blocking mechanism work?

Hi John
It appears that there is no good answer to your question. From my undertstanding, the SAP Fixed Assets add-on is a very basic solution, and does not anticipate many of the changes that can occur once an Asset is acquired. Frankly, it is pretty basic when handling the initial acquisition.
Not that this will help you with this particular install, but the Fixed Assets add-on from B1 Fixed Assets LLC does a very thorough job of creating Assets, where you can use any or all of Invoices, Credit Memos, and Journal Entries, mixing and matching to create the Asset. Once the Asset has be added, making Cost Adjustments is almost as thorough, and provides considerably more options to recognize the Cost Adjustment. You can see a viedo of a relatively simple Asset Acquisition on YouTube (www.youtube.com/b1fixedassets).
Let me know how you get this issue resolved - I am very interested.
