A/P Credit Memo in relation with Goods Return

Dears,
I'm not able to make an A/P Goods Return after Making a Credit Memo.
Because as I have the Credit Memo as a Financial Document, also I want to have a Goods Return as an Inventory Document.
Kindly Advice.
Thanks,
Kerolous Samuel

Dear,
Credit memo is nothing but reversal of total INVOICE.
As you said, you are not able to make goods return,
1) Check stock is available or not.If not revers the consumption entry
2) If you are using QM integration for GRN , system will generate an inspection lot for GRN.So now you need to reverse this inspection lot, so that stock will update in QUALITY STOCK.
Then you can return the stock using MIGO transaction(122 movement type). or
3) Assign the material code in P.O and activate check box as "RETURNS ITEM" and save.
4) Then do GRN using transaction MIGO for this return material.
Kindly check posting dates also for the inventory changes.

Can a credit memo be posted with zero amount?

Can a credit memo be posted with zero amount? What would it mean, that the goods qty have been posted free of cost?
Pls reply...
Thanks,
Swati.

yes, It depends upon the procurement...
I have raised a PO for 100 pieces, But the Vendor will supply only in Dozens..
That means for 100 pices , we will receive 9 Dozens( 108 pieces)..
Similarly some times if it's a Fragile material , the Vendor will send more pieces as a buffer..
If IR Qty > GR Qty , it becomes Qty variance..
Similarly I received 100 Qty & 5 pieces are Sub-Standard, then I will raise Credit memo for that...

Replace AR Credit Memo Request Workflow with a new Custom Workflow

Hello friends,
We have a business requirement to replace the AR Credit Memo Request Workflow with a new Custom Workflow whenever an Invoice is disputed (Oracle Advanced Collections).
The Credit Memo Request workflow is being launched within the Oracle API arw_cmreq_cover. We thought of an approach wherein the Oracle form IEXINDTL.fmb can be renamed and the Custom workflow to be called in the WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger on Dispute Button instead of calling the program Unit IEXINDTL_CONTROL.DISPUTE (as in standard form) which inturn calls several API's and hence the AR Credit Memo Request Workflow. But this would override the other standard processes being carried out in these API's. Our requirement is to only replace the AR Credit Memo Request Workflow and not to override the other standard processes.
Does anyone have come across the similar requirement? Please let us know your inputs.
Thanks in Advance !

I ran across the same error today. Since it's been over a month, I assume you've fixed it already or decided you didn't need it at all? What was your fix?
For me, I noted that in the sample directory, a similar "createView" call (in End User Anonymous Enrollment) also includes this argument:
<Argument name='viewId' value='User'/>
When I added that to my createView call, the "Missing view id" error went away, and the user are gets created.
I'm not entirely comfortable with the value specified, though; seems like view IDs should be more unique. I would have thought it should have been something like this instead:
<Argument name='viewId' value='User:$(accountId)'/>

Creating debit/credit memo in AP with Payables Interface

Hello guys,
I am able to create an invoice using the payables interface table AP_INVOICES_INTERFACE and running the Payables Open Interface concurrent program. My question is, is it possible to create a debit/credit memo in AP as well through the interface tables?
Many Thanks

Hi.
If the invoice amount is zero or positive then the value is STANDARD. If the invoice amount is negative then the value is CREDIT. This means you can upload Standard invoices and Credit Memos.

Credit memo's created with reference to billing docs

hi,
appreciate your help on the following.
Can someone please explain how the conditions frm the invoice get copied to the credit memo? is it through copy controls and how can i check this?
I jst want the credit memos to copy the exact conditions of the invoice and not to update pricing.
Thanks
Keshini

Hi there,
Yes. If both the credit memo & the invoice use the same pricing procedure, then they can be copied from the invoice.
But there is no direct copy from the invoice to the credit memo.
Credit memo is a billing doc type which is raised either against a returns order or against an invoice correction request.
So if you wish to copy the pricing, then you will need to maintain copy controls from invoice to returns order / invoice correction req 1st, then from returns / invoice correction request to credit memo.
So checkif your company is using the same pricing for invoice & returns. Then maintain F2 to RE order in VTAF 1st, then from RE order to CR in VTFA.
In that case at item level pricing, you will have to choose the option G or D. Option B cary new pricing is used when the docs have different pricing procedure.

BOM explosion for credit memo req,free of charge,returns order types

Hi Gurus,
My client has the following requirement.Sales BOM with header pricing has to be configured for standard order, free of charge, credit memo req, debit memo req, returs order types. I have configured the BOM for standard order(ZOR) successfully, but for credit memo request and other orders its not picking correctly.The component items for the BOM structure is repeating twice.Pleae let me know how to maintain item category determination for credit memo request and other order types.
For credit memo req I have created new item category by copying the G2N and updated the structure scope as A and application SD01.so the new item category is ZG2B and I have maintained the below mentioned determination.
ZCR ERLA ZG2B
ZCR ERLA ZG2B G2N
ZCR NORM ZG2B G2N
Regards,
Hari Challa.

Hi,
That is incorrect.
For sales order, you shoudl have used item category groups as ERLA, LUMF respectively. The resultant item categories will be TAP/TAQ etc. The same kind of configuration should be enabled for Credit memos and others also.
There the item category group will be ERLA, or LUMF
The document type will be CR / RE etc based on the process
Now the resultant item category should be TAP/TAQ or you can even have RENN etc but the property of this IC should be same as TAP/TAQ based on what you are expecting, apart from the standard configurations of a return process. If you do this, then your pricing and items will come up properly.
In specific, you have to look at the BOM configuration of the Item category in the BOM area.
If you need any detail, pls let us know.

and Why does item cost change?
Because the problem is -1,345,206,156.00 comes to G/L report of Stock Account
But stock amount comes to Inventory Audit report is 1,177,765.20300 + 1,686,878.36400 + 1,949,031.26*200 = 1,417,887,155.00
Then if I generate G/L report for stock account
and I generate inventory audit report for all warehouse in the same period, the total stock account is diffenrent
Please help me explain!
Thank you so much.

It is because the item cost in the A/P invoice is different with the item cost in the A/P credit memo. it is normal for moving average valuation method system.
Check the solution from this note [1227453|https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/smb_searchnotes/display.htm?note_langu=E&note_numm=1227453]:
Price Difference in A/P Credit Memo and A/P Goods Return.
Symptom
In what scenario is the 'Price Difference' account used when posting an independent A/P Credit Memo or A/P Goods Return?
Other terms
Price difference, return, goods, stock, inventory, A/P, credit memo, difference, variance, SAP Business One
Reason and Prerequisites
Consulting
Solution
The 'Price Difference' account is used when the 'In Stock' quantity of an item is reduced to zero. This account holds the difference between the transaction amount (A/P Credit Memo or A/P Goods Return) and the item's 'Cumulative Value' in the Item table. For example:
Item A
Quantity - 10 Units
Average Cost - GBP 5.00
Cumulative Value - GBP 50.00
If an A/P Credit Memo or A/P Goods Return is posted for the entire 10 units with the unit cost of GBP 4.50. The GBP .50 difference will be posted to the 'Price Difference' account.
Dr. Supplier or Allocation Account, GBP 45.00
Dr. Price Difference, GBP 5.00
Cr. Stock, GBP 50.00
The GBP 5.00 is also recorded to set the 'Cumulative Value' to zero.

Linkage and process flow for credit memo

Hi Experts,
I am creating an outbound zfunction module for consignment settlement.Need to select frbnr,lifnr,budat,ebeln,werks,lgort,erfmg
based on object key of nast table.Kindly please advise the flow and linkage of the fields for selection.
Thanks.
Stazin.

Hi Charan,
Has vendor sent you a credit memo or a subsequent credit?
Usually a credit memo refers to a goods return and a subsequent credit to a prior invoice that was set with a higher price than it should (for example).
So you can simply make a credit memo against the PO with the value/quantity in the vendor credit paper.
Go to MIRO and choose transaction 2 Credit memo, insert the original PO and adjust value/quantity. After saving the document the PO / Stock and value are updated.
Regards.

Cancellation of Goods Receipt with Credit Memo Transaction Issue

Dear SAP Expert and Guru,
Normally cancellation of goods receipt cannot be done when invoice has been issued. Cancellation of Goods receipt can only be done when there is the credit memo being issued in MIRO.
The problem now is that is there any table that can tracked the linkage between Credit Memo and the Cancellation of Goods receipt?
The goods receipt with the invoice linkage can be found in both table EKBE and BKPF. But not the credit memo and cancellation of Goods receipt.
Thank you
Regards
Leonard Tan

Dear Jeya and SAP expert and Gurus,
You are correct, but with the document number, how am I going to get the Cancellation of GR document?
In table BKPF and EKBE. With the invoice number (34*******) then pass it to table BKPF to get the invoice number (52*******),
Then get the invoice number (52*******) pass it to table EKBE to get the Goods Receipt document (61*******).
However, this only can track the transaction goods receipt and Invoice but not the credit memo with cancellation of goods receipt.
Kindly asvise on that.
Thank you
Regards
Leonard Tan

Credit memo -- with ref to invoice

Hello All,
This is my scenario:
1 Invoice with value 100.
2 Credit memo whith value 100 with ref. to invoice.
3 The system let me create more credit memos for the same invoice exceeding de invoice original value. (it just informes me that there are other credit memos) How can I prevent this ?
I checked copy control and Pos./neg. quantity--i put as "+" and in Item Category TAN- Completion Rule mark as "A".
Regards,
Ashu

Hi Ashutosh singh
Credit Memo and the invoice are different and the two r used in different scenarioes
Credit Memo is the Billing document raised for compensating the customer and the the document is raised with reference to the the Credit Memo request
The scenarios is that the customer places an order with the company and the company delivers the fgoods to the customer in which some of thm are dmaged and the customer then claims for the compensation , so the company asks the customer to return the goods to the company and simultaneously they will pay the compensation
process flow is as
Created the standard order OR
then do the deliver LF
then billing document F2
and then raise the credit memo request for the goods G2
thenBilling which is the credit memo
G2
This is the special process where the goods are received and the customer does not want the replacement of the dmaged goods and instead he wants the amout to be credited
so we have to raise the credit meemo request with reference to the standard illing document and then the credit memo request and then billing document G@
but in the standsrd invoice we havae to creatae the created the standsrd and then the delivery and then the invoice
Invoice
order (VA01)>Delivery(VL01N)>Change Delivery(VL02N)&PGI>INVOICE
EX:
Order type:OR
credit memo:
for the return material or discount is missing for the material,we create credit memo request.credit memo has sent to customer
order (VA01)>CREDIT MEMO(VF01).
NO DELIVERY PROCESS.WITH REF. to BILLING DOCUMENT,we create credit memo request.
EX:
Order type:G2.

Order related inter company credit memo - Order status 'Not Invoiced'

Hi,
We have recently created 'Order related inter company credit memo' process for return Stock Transport Orders(STO). For this, we used order related billing (billing relevance = C i.e. Relevant for ord.-related billing - status acc.to target qty) with standard item category 'G2N'. The issue is even after invoicing, sales order item status is 'Not Invoiced' and header status is 'Open', hence these orders are picked up multiple times during background invoice run and multiple invoices are being created.
How do we control the 'Completion' status in order related inter company billing? VBUP-FKSAA is not changed even after billing document creation and remains as A i.e. Not yet processed. Do i need to check VBUP-FKIVP since this is inter company billing.
I have also tried with TVAP-FKREL as 'B' i.e. Relevant for order-related billing - status according to order quantity but of no use.
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ganesh

intercompany credit memo is created for the returns delivery.

Return Delivery with a Credit Memo Request.

Hello Gurus. I have been working on this issue for quite some time. I will explain the process that was provided by our installers. It doesn't seem to be adding up. Here is the situation, Product that was sent incorrectly was returned. According to our procedures, we create a returns delivery thru VA01, with RE (returns) as the Order Type. We then create it with REFERENCE to the Invoice Number. We remove the items not being returned, enter the Billing Block and Order Reason. Then Save. It gives us a returns delivery number of 6000000, We then return the product back to our stock through MB1B. We clear it and put it back as normal. We then Create a Credit Memo Request through VA01, order type is CR (Credit Memo Request) Create with Reference, we again select the invoice number, delete the items not being returned, enter billing reason, then save. It gives us a number of 60000001. At this point, we enter VF01 and create a billing document. It says the order has billing blocks. We go back in and remove the blocks. We hit save. It now seems to ok, except that, under document flow, under the first delivery 6000000, it shows still being processed (the goods returns shows complete, but the line above shows being processed), and the document flow for 60000001 shows the invoice and the Accounting document as Not Cleared. My question is, should there be 2 seperate orders? A returns delivery and credit memo Request should be under the one delivery number 6000000 according to our procedures? Those were the steps given. Something seems out of place. Are my steps out of order? Are the procedures wrong? If anybody has any insight, I would much appreciate it.

I would start fresh with a new sales order. When you create with reference both the return delivery and credit memo are created with reference to the return sales order. Here is an example document flow to clarify:
Document                                      Date               Qty/value   UoM/Cur   Overall proc. status
                                                                                Return 60000077 / 10                          08/25/05               10.000 EA      Completed
