A/P Invoice Entry - Duplicate Invoice Error vs. Warning Message Control

In configuration, the duplicate invoice message has been defined as an error instead of a warning. This affects all invoice entry dialog transactions. Is there a method or approach to change only transaction F-63 Park Document so the message is a warning intead of an error? Thxs.

Hi
we have to activate certain setting in MM.
Step - 1
SPRO - MM - Logistic Invoice Verification - Incoming Invoice - Set Check for Duplicate Invoices - Activate Check box for reference field.
Step - 2
In Vendor Master XK02/FK02 goto Payment Transaction & click on check box - Check double Inv
Step - 3
There is also a Std Report for checking the invoices for which same reference feild was given
S_ALR_87012340
Hope its useful, give if found useful

Error or warning message when closing WBS element

Hello Friends,
Is it possible to issue any error or warning message while closing the account assigned WBS after balancing cost to zero on WBS by settlement and (commitment zero) fully completion of GR, but IR has not yet done that means PO is still open.
Thanks for the help.
Kris

you should not use messages on closure for this
run ME5J report
or run a line item report on the GR/IR account
This should be checxked from logistics side not from WBS or projects

Error and Warning message documentation

Hi. I'm looking for general documentation that I can use as a reference whenever the compiler/linker/etc. spews out an error or warning message. For example, I'm trying to build a UnitTest framework and I'm getting the following error from the linker:
ld: fatal: symbol 'X' is multiply defined: (file a.o and file b.o)
Thanks,

Accounts payable invoices (fv50) - duplicate invoices hard warning

Currently we only receive a soft warning when we try to enter a duplicate invoice. Is there a way to reconfigure to make the warning a hard warning that can be overwritten it necessary. We are running ECC 6.0.
Thanks,
Jon

H Jon,
In FI, if the field 'Chk double inv.' is marked in your vendor account, the message F5117 - check whether invoice was already entered with number ...." appears if an invoice is created before with the same information (comp. code, vendor, curr, doc date (inv date), and ref number). This is the standard functionality.
Please note that the following fields must be identical for error message F5117 (duplicate invoice) to occur:
     Company code                    (BUKRS)
     Vendor number                   (LIFNR)
     Currency                        (WAERS)
     Reference number                (XBLNR)
     Amount in document currency     (WRBTR)
     Document date                   (BLDAT) <<<<<<<<<<<
If the document date is different using the same invoice number, the system does not consider it a duplicate invoice.
Please let me know if the document date of the duplicated invoices are the same. If not, unfortunately this is the way system works.
Best Regards,
Vanessa.

Regarding error and warning messages in log.

hi all,
i need to move the error meaasges and warning messages to log....am downloading the FI data from EC...

if EMP subgroup is not there in header then move to ITAB2.and at the final appene itab1,itab2 to one more inernal table so that this final table contains all the errored pernrs, and u can display it

Handle error or warning message in updata task fm

Hi Experts,
I have an requirement of creating materials. I am doing this in an update task FM. Now i want that if some error comes during creation of material then i display them in an alv on the screen.So inside the FM in case of error i populated it in the tables parameter of FM.But when i come back to the calling program this table is always coming empty. Could anybody please explain how to solved this problem or how we can pass the data back to the main program.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Do you know how an update BAPI ( Create, Change ) works .
1) At First, it does validation for important fields for every tables passed in the BAPI.
perform check_on_header.
* In the subroutine called, if error occurs, it sets sy-subrc value to 8 and fills the bapireturn parameter.
check sy-subrc < 8.
perform check_on_items.
check sy-subrc < 8.
At the end, when all the data is clean, it calls the update task
if sy-subrc = 0.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_XXX_POST' in update task.
endif.
2) We check the return parameters of the bapi call and if successful call 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'.
3) The actual posting in 'BAPI_XXX_POST' happens once commit work statement is called in 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT' .
You too have to adopt similar approach.

IDOC to File (BYpass)-- Error or Warning : " Message Branched. "

HI all,
Iam trying idoc to file scenario(bypass)
my idoc is triggered succesfully and it is reaching to the receiver system.
but the problem is in SXMB_MONI ,it is not showing my Receiver service details and showing with different symbol like " <b>>></b> " with message as " MESSAGE BRANCHED".
what might be the problem....???
Also Idoc reaching to the receiving system very lately.
Pls suggest me ASAP..
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Vijji

In the receiver determination, do you have multiple receivers, i.e , is the same idoc being sent to multiple receivers ?
If yes, then the message branch is used to split the source message so that it can be send to differetn targets. You will find multiple entires below the Slit Message Entry one for each receiver.

Same thing started after updating to 3.6.6 on Window XP. Some pages load after doing "shift - Reload page", but not always. Error Console is showing a lot of "Errors" and lots of "Warnings" from pages that do not load. But before 3.6.6 update the pages loaded OK.

Duplicate Invoice Control.

With regards to duplicate invoice control, can anyone advise if they have found a method to ensure that invoices are not processed more than once? Current process in ECC is too rudimentary. Is there a way to configure the system such that it displays a list of both FV60 and MIRO invoices that are potential duplicates based on parameters such as Reference, Amount, Vendor, Name etc?
Any help here is appreciated.

Hello,
If you want to make it from warning to error message, you can restrict it.
Try to post a same invoice. The system gives a warning message, double click on the warning message. Note down the message number.
Then go to OBA5
Give the application area (alphabeticals in the message number is application area)
and give the message number and switch off the message for online and batch entries.
In case if the message is not available in OBA5, then go to OBMSG and add the message there, click on switch off button, then you come to OBA5 and switch off.
If you make this as error, in future, if you post the same invoice reference, the system will stop you. You need to keep that in mind.
Hope this will solve the purpose.

Ravi

Duplicate Invoice Check -Vendor

Hi everyone,
I found out that I posted an invoice(FB60) for the same vendor with same, amount, reference,invoice date,same company code.one invoice was posted on 3rd march and other was posted on 25th march,I checked in the vendor master record indicator" chk double inv" is checked.Why system didn't give any error or warning message.Please guide.
Regards
Shaun

Hi,
Good Day,
Please follow the below steps ( taken from another post and its working fine for me)
The following fields must be identical for Duplicate invoice check
Company code (BUKRS)
Vendor number (LIFNR)
Currency (WAERS)
Reference number (XBLNR)
Amount in document currency (WRBTR)
Document date (BLDAT)
If the document is having any one of the above filed different then the
system does not consider it as a duplicate invoice.
and also It will check duplicate invoice check in vendor master data
and in posting key is there check box selected for sales related
The setting you making in OMRDC i.e Materials management->Logistics
Invoice Verification->Incoming Invoice ->Set Check for Duplicate
Invoices is only valid for MM and not FI invoices posted via FB60/FB65.
You should check the F1 help on field "Chk double inv." (LFB1-REPRF)
in the relevant vendor master record (transaction FK03).
Please also check, that message F5 117 has been set correctly in the
IMG using this path:
Financial Accounting -> Financial Accounting Global Settings ->
Document -> Default Values for Document Processing -> Change Message
Control for Document Control For Document Processing
Finally & mainly, go to the relevant posting key is defined as sales
related in transaction OB41. You have to flag this field if the
duplicate invoice check should work.

Error/warning messages when trying to add a lookup field

I have gotten error and warning messages when I attempt to put a lookup field on a form. Based on a Municipality Code match in the Account table, I want to add to the form the Municipality Name from the Municipality Table.

After taking out a lookup field that was not looking up coreectly, I get this warning message and 3 simailar ones:
The referenced assembly "System.Web.Mvc, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35, processorArchitecture=MSIL" could not be resolved because it has

I got this response on the message board:

the usage of Visual Studio IDE such as WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System

Message FH 110 and FH 511 Control (Change Error to Warning Type)

Hello everybody,
I have following problem: some people changed G/L Master data Recon.Account for Account Type from 'blank' into 'asset' recon.account.
Now we can't change it back. I know that once the G/L account is changed into Recon.Account there is now possibility to make changes back.
Please is there a way to change the error into warning messages.
I used se91, se93 and other ways but still nothing.
Regards
Laurynas

Hi,
You change the account type back to blank if the balance in that account is zero.
Nullify the figures in that account and then change the account type.
Cheers and good luck

Validation for Duplicate Invoice Entry

Hi Everyone,
Currently, it seems that SAP reviews an incoming invoice for reference field (invoice number), invoice date, vendor and company code. If the comibation of the criteria are met, then a warning message appears stating to review the entry due to a possible duplication. I've since changed the warning message to an error so that users can not post the duplicate invoice.
Now, what is the process of stopping an invoice from being posted that meets the following criteria: (1) vendor, (2) invoice number, (3) amount. Would this be a validation formula or some sort of user exit or is there standard SAP IMG that can be performed?
Thanks for the assistance,
Pete

hi Peter,
this should be a substitution exit, should happen in FI, on line item level (check transaction GGB1), for all vendor credit postings (posting key between 31 and 39). The substitution has to be done on field amount (WRBTR), because this is the first point where you have all information you need (I guess the vendor invoice number is saved into header). You have to write a small code in the exit to select possible vendor invoices from BSIK and BSAK. If any found you should issue an error message and block the process.
hope this helps

Urgent !!!! Duplicate invoice entry

Hello Experts,
I have a meeting tomorrow with business people to discuss the problems of "Double Entry Invoice" and how to control that.
Here is what I was told by Business Unit head:
I have observed that we sometimes make duplicate payments, usually through the AP check payments then again via wire transfer, but also could be duplicate invoice entry. I need to understand how this could happen and what we can be done to prevent (or minimize) the possibility of this occurring. Are there any SAP configuration settings we can use that we are not currently using?
I joined very recently in this project and didnt know much about the configuration settings of the System.
How should I deal this situation? Please advise me on what points should I prepare.
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated and duly rewarded.
Regards,
Sriram

HI Sriram,
In vendor master data you need to check " check double invoice"
In the vendor master, set whether the system should check for duplicate invoices.
The check for duplication of invoice entry aims to avoid invoices being accidentally created and paid twice.
When you enter invoices, the system first checks whether the accounting documents in Financial Accounting and then documents in Logistics Invoice Verification only those that contain errors or that were entered for verification in the background match up according to the following criteria.
Vendor
Currency
Company code
Gross invoice amount
Reference document number
Invoice doc. date
The system only checks invoices. It does not check credit memos or subsequent credits/debits. When you create a duplicate invoice, the system displays a warning or error message, depending on your settings in Customizing.
Exception
For the Argentina country version and for documents in Financial Accounting, both invoices and credit memos are checked for duplicate entries.
If a previously created document is canceled and then created again, the system does not display a message.
Integration with Financial Accounting
One of the following checks is performed in Financial Accounting, depending on the entry in the Reference field:
If you enter a reference document number in the current invoice or credit memo, then the system checks for previously posted invoices or credit memos in Financial Accounting that match the following attributes:
Company code
Vendor
Currency
Document date
Reference document number
If you do not enter a reference document number in the current invoice or credit memo, then the system checks for previously posted invoices or credit memos in Financial Accounting that match the following attributes:
Company code
Vendor
Currency
Document date
Amount in document currency
Your system settings determine whether the system sends a warning or error message when it finds an invoice or a credit memo that matches all the relevant attributes.
Prerequisites
In the vendor master record, select the Chk double inv. (check for duplicate invoice) on the Payments in Accounting screen.
The system only checks for duplicate invoices in Logistics Invoice Verification if you enter the reference document number when entering the invoice.
In the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Logistics Invoice Verification, you can define that the following characteristics are not checked:
(Logistics Invoice Verification ® Incoming Invoice ® Set Check for Duplicate Invoices)
Reference document number
Invoice date
Company code
The result of this is that the system is more likely to find a duplicate invoice, as it checks fewer characteristics.
Note, that if you deselect the Company Code field this can have a negative effect on system performance. This is because the system then checks numerous documents from existing company codes.
Features
During the check for duplicate invoices, the system compares the following entered attributes in the standard system in Logistics Invoice Verification:
Reference document number
Invoice date
Gross invoice amount
Currency
Vendor
Company code
