Amount to credit greater than credit balance - goods return to AP Cred Note

Hi All,
I've got the following scenario:
We have a AP Goods Return on the system which totals £12.94 with freight charges of -£3.75. We have copied this to a AP Credit Note, but have amended the freight from -£3.75 to -£3.00(UK VAT Rate 15% applicable throughout). The total credit field now shows £13.80 and the credit balance field shows £12.94. When you try to add the document it gives an error "amount to credit greater than credit balance". I'm using 2005A PL53.
Can anyone please advise the reason behind the error and also what the correct way of handling this kind of transaction would be?
Kind regards,
Matt

Hi Wesley,
I tried both methods and it doesn't resolve the issue. Spoke to SAP, they gave me a solution and workaround, the issue is a bit more complicated as what it may seem. You manually have to close the goods return, create a standalone service credit note with the appropriate GL account to reverse out the "goods clearing account" entry created by the reversal journal. The bahaviour has been changed in SBO 2007 and therefore the problem is not present in this version anymore. Thanks for your help anyway.
Kind regards,
Matt

  • Goods Return or AP Credit Memo Creation if AP Reserve Inv created

    Hi All,
    Can anyone tell me how to create good return or ap credit note if ap reserve invoice is used. GRPO created with reference to ap reserve invoice always closed.
    Regards

    Hi,
    We cannot create neither Goods Returns based on GRPO which is based on A/P Reserve
    Invoice, nor Credit Memo based on A/P Reserve Invoice on which GRPO is
    based.
    To cancel GRPO based on A/P Reserve Invoice, create Goods Returns NOT
    based on any document whith exactly the same data as in GRPO that should
    be cancelled. Next, Copy this return to AP Credit memo.
    If you have created a payment based on AP reserve invoice, cancel it, it should reopen the AP reserve invoice document status in 2007 A. Then you can easily create AP credit memo.
    Please try in test environment first.

  • Reconciliation amount must be less than the balance due for this tran

    Hi,
    I received the error below when creating an outgoing payment for the invoices.
    "Reconciliation amount must be less than the balance due for this transaction."
    I have found this thread from Forum "Reconciliation amount must be less than the balance due for this trans " but that was posted in 2009 Jul.
    The database version I am using is 2007B PL 13.
    Kindly suggest if you know the solution for 2007b PL 13 for the above mentioned error.
    Thank you.

    Hi Yadana,
    The solution from that thread is still valid for you. Your version is as early as 2008.

  • Copying Goods return to AP Credit note

    Hi all,
    We've returned some goods to a supplier, so we do a goods return on SAP, so that credits stock and Debits allocation account.
    Our supplier has sent us an AP credit note. So we 'copy to' AP Credit (from Goods return) and the automatic journal entry is Credit Allocation account Debit Accounts payable.
    My question is, all of the above entries are balance sheet entries. Shouldn't a goods return have some 'income' effect on the P&L?
    Thanks for any help...

    When you make good return
    Then
    Goods Receipt Not Invoice   Debited(Liability )
    Inventory Account                Credited(Asset)
    And when you make A/P Credit note based on Good Return,
    Vendor Account                     Debited(Liability)
    Tax Account                           Credited(Asset)
    Goods Received Not Invoice  Credited(Liability)
    so i think  ,there are not any ledger belong from P & Loses .
    Thanks

  • 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.

  • GL balance for vendor is greater than vendor balance

    Hi,
    I have an intercompany Account. The GL Balance (FS10N) of the intercompany account is greater than the Vendor Balance(Intercompany balance FK10N). Kindly let me know, how should I check the line items in GL Balance. Double clicking the balance cannot display line item.
    Quick reply will be appreciated.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi
    Inter-company GL account is a reconciliation account and it can be the same GL account for multiple Vendors. Please check the balances of all the inter-company vendors in the company code that has this reconciliation account. You can a list of all such vendors from table LFB1 and Field AKONT (recon Account).
    If there is still an imbalance then please look up for the closing balance for the previous period and the opening balance of the current period in FS10n. There is a slim possibility that items were posted to this account after rolling forward the balance.
    regards

  • Goods Return and MIRO Credit Memo

    Hello Friends,
    Please give your suggestions for the queries below :
    1. Is there any way we can create Credit Memo (MIRO) with reference to MIGO 122 Movement document (Rejected material returned)
    2. Is there a report that shows the list of MIRO Credit Memos. (My document type is the same for both Invoice and Credit Memo)
    3. Is there a standard report of MIGO 122 Movement document linking with MIRO Credit Memo and possibly PO.
    4. If 161 movement solves my problem,  what is the document that I can print out and send alongwith the rejected material to Vendor.
    The question from my customer that how do confirm whether credit memo have been entered for all that is moved out of their premises as rejected material.
    Regards

    Hi,
    1.  If you are using ERS, then running MRRL transaction will automatically generate credit memo for your return delivery with movement type 122.
    2.  MIR5 is the one you should look into.
    3.  Take a look into ME80FN report.  Yet, this report does not indicate specifically for movement type 122.  If it is required that this movement type shall be chosen as part of selection parameters, then you should develop your own report.
    4.  There is not any particular difference if you are using movement type 161.  The only difference is that in case of using 161, you will have to raise a new return PO and make necessary GR and IR posting.  However, the disadvantage is that you will lose the track of your original PO (and PO history).

  • Goods Return can't copy to AP Credit Memo

    Hi,
    We had customer who is operating in computer gadget. The store keeper is returning stock to supplier by issuing Goods Return with old unit price. When suppliers issues AP credit memo to the customer, the unit price differs. Customer is copying Goods Return to AP credit memo and put in new price but when add AP credit memo, the following error message appears:
    "Amount to credit is greater than credit balance"
    Customer is curious why system allows to add AP Invoice if unit price differs from GRPO but disallow to add AP credit memo if unit price differs from Goods Return.
    Customer is now running on 2005A PL23 and we are tested in PL34. Same result.
    Any idea how to resolve?
    Regards

  • 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
