FM-FI-TM: missing reference document from Travel in FMIFIIT, field VREFBN

Hi everyone!
When I post a document in Travel Management (transaction PRRW), where one  account is reconciliation account and the other is expense account, there is connection between this document and the FI document in field VREFBN, table FMIFIIT. But when I post a document in PRRW where one account is simple GL account and the other expense account, there is NO link. In FM this document is updated with the value type 54 (invoice) in both cases.
I wonder if this is the way it should be or this is a mistake?

Hi,
In Funds Management, commitments documents are generated by the trips entered in Travel Management. You display these trips in the information system (value type u201C52u201D). Updating always takes place with the net amounts.
Therefore, your situation is correct, you can have postings in FM and not in FI where it is a commitment, not a real actual value already.
Let me clarify one thing:
FI - actual postings
PSM-FM - commitments (do not have invoice or payment yet) AND actuals postings
Kindly check the very good documentation in help.sap.com below:
=========================================================================
                                Integration with Travel Management  
=========================================================================
Use
If you use the Travel Management component you can enter the trips in Travel Management with an FM account assignment and so integrate employee travel expenses in Funds Management.
With this, the assignment of travel expenses can take place in accordance with the assignment values for the entire trip, for documents, for destinations and according to kilometer distribution.
Integration
In Funds Management, commitments documents are generated by the trips entered in Travel Management. You display these trips in the information system (value type u201C52u201D). Updating always takes place with the net amounts.
The updating control depends on which components you use integrated with Funds Management in addition to Travel Management and which account assignment elements you want to use. The settings for Controlling and Salary and Payroll Accounting determine how the account assignments are specified or derived for Funds Management. You determine which areas of responsibility in Funds Management the costs should be assigned to.
The integration with Human Resources (HR) also plays an important role in this. For more information, see Integration with Human Resources The prerequisites described in this for the different scenarios are also valid for Travel Management.
Prerequisites
For information on the prerequisites for updating travel expenses, see Prerequisites for Updating in Funds Management.
The following prerequisites also apply:
Fund, Functional Area and Grant
If you want to use the account assignment elements fund, functional area and grant, you must activate the account assignment elements in the Customizing of Public Sector Management in IMG activity Activate Account Assignment Elements.
If you are also using Human Resources, in this IMG activity you must also specify the date from which the activated account assignment elements must be defined when creating/changing personnel master records for the infotypes in addition to the HR master data used in Travel Management. 
Funds center
So that you can define the funds center in the personnel master record, you must define the date from which this account assignment element must be defined when creating/changing existing personnel master records in the Customizing of Funds Management Government in IMG activity Start for Integration HR (without personnel commitment scenario 2).
Manual account assignment for travel
In order to assign the trips to an account manually you must ensure that the fields you want to use u2013grant, fund, functional area, funds center and commitment item- must be ready for input when entering travel data. You enter the required settings for this in Customizing of Financial Accounting, as follows:
Choose Travel Management ®  Travel Accounting ® Dialog and Payroll Control ® Dialog Control ® Install Variable Structure for Account Assignment Objects and choose the coding block which is relevant to you:
·        If you want to enter the FM account assignment in the cost apportionment for the whole trip, choose Account Assignment Objects: Expense Assignment Value for Complete Trip.
·        If you want to enter the FM account assignment in the cost apportionment of a document, choose Account Assignment Objects: Expense Assignment Value for Document.
·        If you want to enter the FM account assignment in the cost apportionment of the stopovers, choose Account Assignment Objects: Expense Assignment Value for Destination.
·        If you want to enter the FM account assignment in the cost apportionment by kilometers, choose Account Assignment Objects: Expense Assignment Value of km Apportionment.
Enter variable names for the account assignment elements you want to use, for example C COBL-CMMT ITEM, COBL-FNDS CTR, for the relevant account assignment blocks.
Derivation of FM account assignment elements from CO account assignment
If you are using Controlling and want the FM account assignment elements to be derived automatically from the CO account assignment, you must:
·        Define a step in your derivation strategy, in which the FM account assignment elements are assigned to CO account assignments. For more information on this topic, see Deriving FM Account Assignment Elements from CO Account Assignments.
·        Hide the fields for the FM account assignments elements.
Therefore, you cannot maintain the field status as described above.
Deriving FM account assignment elements when integrating with Human Resources
In order to assign the trips to an account manually you must maintain the field status as described above.
If you do not manually distribute the travel expenses for an employee completely, the travel expenses are distributed in accordance with the cross-trip cost assignment value, the so-called travel expenses assignment rule.
The prerequisite for this is that you maintain the infotypes in the HR master records in accordance with your requirements. For information on how the system then determines the valid travel expenses assignment rule, see Travel Expenses Assignment Rule.
During the settlement of a trip, if you want to distribute travel expenses to several grants, functional areas or funds centers, you must enter several account assignments for infotype 0027 (cost distribution), subtype 02 (travel expenses) along with the relevant percentages for the distribution in master data maintenance for the HR master records.
Features
The travel expenses assignment takes place in accordance with the Travel management functions. However you must take the following into account:
·        Advances are not taken into account in Funds Management, and the same applies to data that you enter using fast entry.
·        Requested trips are only updated statistically.
·        If the trip data has the status u201CTravel requestu201D, the data is only updated statistically in the standard system. The active availability control does not take place until after the approval.
Activities
When entering trip data, you enter the account assignments that are relevant to the budget. If you do not enter the FM account assignment manually, the system makes postings to the account assignments according to the settings and assignments you have made.
For travel expenses accounting the system defaults the FM account assignments to the Financial Accounting documents, which are generated by the accounting.
For more information on entering travel expenses and travel expenses accounting, see the FI Travel Management documentation.

I hope it helps you

It's finished ok (green light) but no records were written to cube. ...Can any body help me please.

    Hi Alejandro,
    Do you have a start routine? If yes, can you check if some/all records are being dropped in this step.

  • Item 000002 is not copied from the reference document

    Dear All,
    I am facing a typical problem while creating Price difference sales order w.r.t. invoice.
    Document types in the system are -
    Z2FC - Normal Sales order type, ZPD - Price change order type, Z2FB - Normal invoice type
    My item category determination is -
    Doc. type -  Itm cat. gp.  -  Usage - Hghr itm cat - Default itm cat. - Manual itm. cat.
    ZPD         -   NORM         -  blank   - blank           -  G2N                  - L2N
    ZPD         -   NORM         -  blank   - G2N            -  G2N                  - L2N
    Z2FC       -   NORM         -  blank   - Blank           - TAN                  - TAP
    Z2FC       -   NORM         -  blank   - TAN            - TANN                - TAN
    Copy control is -
    Z2FB to ZPD for item category TAN with proposed item categories are G2N and L2N.
    Z2FB to ZPD for item category TANN u2013 requirement 302 [Do not copy item]
    During my Z2FC sales order creation I was having line items as follows
    Item no. -  Mat. code     -  Qty -      Higher level item - Item category - Amount
    10         -  101329          -  3     -      blank                 - TAN                - 35,000.00
    20         -  MC091234    -  3     -      10                      - TANN             - 0
    30         -  MC091234    -  1     -      10                      - TAN                - 5000
    We are not using the sales BOM. I need to provide line 20 free to the customer. Hence I have manually maintained 10 in the higher level item column for the line item 20. The item category determined was TAN. Then I had changed it to TANN manually. So the amount became zero. Line 20 became the child and line 10 became parent.
    At the same time customer also wishes to buy the material code MC091234. Now the material code MC091234 is of HALB type where as the material code 101329 is of FERT type. There is validation in the system that only FERT type of material could be sold and HALB type of material could be supplied as free. [With item category TANN]. In case HALB type material is also required to be sold then I need to manually maintained value in the higher level item. So I had maintained the value 10 in the higher level item column for the line item 30. The default item category determined is TAN. The invoice is also created properly. [Z2FB type]
    But when I am creating the invoice correction document type ZPD w.r.t. Z2FB type invoice, I am able to get the two line items for the material code 101329 in line item 10. One each for G2N and L2N item category.
    But for the material code MC091234 in line item 30, I get only one line item with item category G2N. I did not get another line item for the material code MC091234 for the corresponding L2N type item category
    At the same time following messages are displayed
    Message no. V1475 Item category for item 000002 cannot be determined and
    Message no. V1476 Item 000002 is not copied from the reference document
    Please help.

  • Publish a document from Document Workspace back to source location - missing option in SharePoint 2013

    We intend to use Document Workspaces for reviewing all our Policies & Procedures.
    Once all the changes to the document have been made, I am trying to publish a document from a document workspace back to the source location but the 'Send to: Publish to Source Location' option is missing in SharePoint 2013.
    So instead I try to use 'Send to: Other Location' and copy / paste the URL from the original document library but this produces an error.
    Has anyone come across this and if yes, know of a workaround?

    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you so much for your prompt feedback and response.
    Once I click on the file (from the Document Workspace) and go File | Send to | Other Location and then I paste the URL from the original document library and test it and the link works. It shows me the document library of the original location. When I keep
    the filename the same (as I want it to override the original document with the new changes) and then I press OK and then it produces the error? I don't know what I am doing wrong???

  • Error Message - Reference number of a document from Back Error

    Hi,
    I created proforma invoice but it is not transferred to GTS. I tried to transfer manually, status shows it is released but there is an error at the top saying 'Reference number of a document from Back Error'. When I checked it in GTS, there is no custom document for proforma invoice. I checked configuration in ECC as well as GTS regarding activation of BADis, document types etc. everything looks fine. Can you please help me where to look at it and get it solved?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Manohar,
    Are you trying to create an Export Declaration?  If so, is this the first time, or has it worked ok previously but failed this time?
    In case it's the first time, have you made sure that:
    The Billing Type is set for transfer to GTS?
    The Billing Type is mapped in GTS?
    The Item Category is mapped in GTS?
    The proforma is actually an export (Shipping Point and Ship-to address not both in the EU)?
    Do you see any related entries in Transaction SM58?
    Do you see any related log entries in the GTS transfer log?

  • Credit note - copy item from reference document

    Hi SD Wizards,
    When creating a price correction order referenced to sales invoice SAP returns an error - "Item xxxx is not copied from the reference document". The problem is strange beacause for the same material but not for the same batch a price correction is created.
    I cheked in copy control but I think when it will be a problem there nothing will be copied.
    Is someone meets a problem like that ? Where I should search a resolve ?
    Best
    Piotr

    Hi ,
    Thanks for replies ...
    Lakshmipathi,
    User tries to make a ZDR (Debit Memo Req NoQty)  from a target F2 (Invoice) so I checked on VTAF on header and copying requirments is 021 -Billing header . Where else I have to check.
    Hrishi,
    I check it and 'do not copy batch' is not ticked.
    Maybe I describe you a problem with  more details.
    Invoice F2:
    Item.                      Material                  
    10.                         10001
    20.                         10002
    30.                         10003
    When user tries to do a ZDR (Debit Request) a message shows : "Item 30 is not copied from the reference document"
    But  when the user tries to do a ZDR (Debit Request) for another F2 (Invoice) - on F2 is the same material 10003 , but the batch is not the same - he can do it.
    So where I can search a resolve ?
    Best

  • Missing documents from 2LIS_03_BF/2LIS_03_UM

    We discovered that on one day last week for a few hours most if not all material and accounting documents were not getting captured coming from 2LIS_03_BF and UM. 
    We've been live using 2LIS_03_BF and UM since May of last year and never had any trouble with missing documents from the inventory extractors until last week, and are not sure what could cause this?
    We patched things up by identifying the missing documents and loading those into BW doing new initializations/full repair requests.  Everything seems fine now, but we'd like to know how to prevent this in the future.  Has anyone experienced this before where suddenly LO documents are not getting captured?
    We found OSS note 766622 which allows for a logging feature for application 03 (LO-IM) but are not sure what kind of system overhead this will cause.  Has anyone else implemented this note and could comment on any impact on the R/3 production system?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hi Chris,
    you are not the first and probably you will not the last to face similar problem with inventory management: I already saw similar situation, but I never found a customer with this OSS Note applied (that, among the other thing, is not a solution, but an activation of a log system in order to hope to understand something next time will happen a similar problem)...
    If SAP support has this type of approach in its OSS note I think that the answer to your doubt will remain unanswered: the cause of this problem is not known and (as you can understand from your experience) it's really hard to understand what's happened !
    The only way to go is applying the log system as per OSS Note and hoping (what a paradox !) that the problem will raise again !!!
    If you apply the note, I don't believe that you will see relevant performance impact (even if you have to write on TMCEXLOG table), but this depends from the average number of your material movements/delta records...
    Bye,
    Roberto

  • Trouble saving documents from Outlook to SharePoint 2010 library - missing tags

    Hello
    One of our users is seeing a strange issue with saving documents from Outlook.  It appears that the document already had tags from the library, but the user said the document was never uploaded to the library.
    All of the server tags show Currently Unavailable, and the user cannot upload this document to the library. 
    See screen shot:
    Please advise,

    Hi thematrixhasyou,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to update documents from Outlook to SharePoint 2010.
    I did a test as the followings:
    1. Create a library, and allow Content Type as Library settings->Advanced Setting, under ‘Allow management of content type?’, select Yes.
    2. Click on Library Settings->Document under Content Types, click on Document Information Panel settings, and select ‘Always show Document…’.
    3. Create some custom cloumns
    4. Upload some documents to the library
    5. Then click on Library->Connect to Outlook, the library will be synced to Outlook
    6. In Outlook, find the library
    7. Double click a document, the document was opened, and the document information(Title and custom columns) were displayed correctly.
    8. Change the document, and save it
    9. Then close the document, it pop up a dailog box, like the below screenshot.
    10. Click on Update, then the document will be updated in SharePoint
    Which type did you use for the custom columns (Year, Category, Document Type)?
    Please have a try as the above steps.
    I hope this helps.
    Thanks,

    Since you mention the pricing routines, I guess you are working on a VOFM routine or a user exit. I think that Anji gave the best universal solution for finding the document type by using VBUK table. VBFA table should not be used for this purpose IMHO.
    Additionally, inside the VOFM routine or a user exit you might be able to use VBPA or XVBPA/YVBPA table - the field VGTYP will contain the reference document category for each line. C = order, M = invoice, there are several orders, which you can see in SE11.
    Just FYI "preceding document" in VBFA is the document that was created first. For example, a sales order is a "preceding document" and the corresponding outbound delivery is a "subsequent document".
    Hope this helps and good luck!

  • Document (Originals) Travel through SAP

    Hi Experts,
    I want to know about, how the document (Originals attached to the DIR) actually travel in SAP when saved or Opened in SAP GUI, EDMS, web portal.
    Here is more explanation about the requirement.
    1. When I save an Original Document in a DIR, it gets saved physically on the SAP SERVER.
    2. When I try to open the Original Document in a DIR, then the document is moved temporarily to application server and opens up,  or some reference pointer points to the document location on server and opens the document from the server location?
    Can you please help, based on this I have further interesting requirement to store documents physically in location based server.
    Waiting reply.
    Regards,
    Sagane

    Hi Rahul,
    As Chandu said that DMS document metadata stores in SAP but physical file will be saved in external server if its integrated with SAP.
    Again to understand the storage functionality you need to find what content repository is used for saving document in DIR. Usually DMS_C1 is used for CV01/02/03.... transaction. You need to check the property of DMS_C1 through transaction OAC0. There could be two scenarios here.
    1. DMS_C1 ------ If storage type is defined as R/3 database then that means the data is getting stored in SAP Data base and not externally.
    2. DMS_C1------ If storage type is defined as HTTP Content Server then that means data is getting stored externally on a content server which is integrated with SAP. Actual document gets stored in the external server and in SAP only the "http://.............................................." link will get generated. So when you try to open the document then the corresponding http:// link  gets called and ultimately it opens the document. This http link consist of external server ip address, port number, document id, content repository details. So when a particular document is opened through these transaction, in the background it creates a http link with the concatenating external server, port number, doc id and content repository  and then finally the link is triggered automatically and the document opens.
    To get more clarity check the content repository properties through OAC0 transaction. Hope above helps. Thanks.
    Regards
