AP Invoice journal entry

Hi Experts,
I have a small query regarding AP invoice journal entry, when we do AP invoice copying from GRPO, we have generally one journal entry passed in the background, one is GRNI which is being Debited and another is the Supplier A/C which is being credited.
But I have one AP invoice where the background journal entry is like this, the supplier A/C credited , GRNI debited by an amount and Trade inventories debited by an amount.
My question is how comes trade inventory A/C is coming here? what is the reason?
it will be a great help if some one assists me.

Hi SKR,
Suppose the following situation:
In GRPO the qty is 10, and during copy from process the same is copied and qty is changed to 15.
Let the price for 1 item is 100,
the entry will be as follows.
For GRPO, JE will be
Inventory Debit 1000
GRNI      Credit 1000
And the JE at AP Invoice will be
GRNI          Debit 1000 -----reversal of GRNI while invoice is created.
Inventory     Debit   500 -----extra 5 units during changing units.
Sundry Creditor               1500
The reason is that SAP system considers that 15 units of inventory is received so the extra 5 units shall be also accounted.
So the case must be that qty must be altered during recording AP invoice.
Usually this is not allowed by SAP, please check whether this happened.
However if there is addition of another item/product during AP Invoice, the same can happen.
Hope this help you some way,
Regards,
JO

Cannot preview journal entry in AP Invoice

Dear Experts,
Good day!
One of the users who create AP Invoice cannot preview the journal entry while adding such document. SAP B1 automatically directs it to the approval process? What would be the possible cause of this? He is a limited financial user with full authorization in AP invoice, Journal Entry etc.
I hope you could help me with this.
Thank you.

Alven

Hi Sir,
Thank you for your response.
But in my unit i can preview the journal entry before SAP activates its approval process. By the way I am using SAP v9.0 PL12 and my client use only v9.0 PL05..
I just discovered that its a program error and such bug was fixed in PL08.
Please see SAP Notes below.

Series not defined for journal entry

Hello Sir
I have defined two series namely "SCPL" and "New1"
                Start No    Last No
SCPL        10001       3000
New1         3001        30000
Now i have made "SCPL" series as default for A/R Invoices and "New1" series as default for rest of the documents like A/R Credit memo,Journal Entry etc...
Now when I try to add an A/R Invoice , it gives me error message "Series not defined for journal entry"..??    But i have defined New1 series as default for Journal Entry

Hi,
In the series defined for journal entry,set document series as default for which default journal entries will be posted automatically.
Ex.For delivey,return,invoice journal entry will be generated automatically,so if you a series like JESYS08 indicating system automated journal entry.This series should be set as default.
If you have further issue let me know.

G/L Account mentioned on line level does not get hit in Journal entry on GRPO and AP Invoice in SAP B1 9.0 PL - 11

Hi,
G/L Account mentioned on line level does not get hit in Journal entry on GRPO and AP Invoice in SAP B1 9.0 PL - 11
I am creating an independent AP Invoice, there are two issues:
1. On line level G/L Account field is not open for selection
2. I have then selected and updated the account on Form Settings. Same account gets updated on line level.
In Journal Entry selected G/L account on line level shall be hitted. But it does not put any effect on JE. Accounting is set by Warehouse. It picks up accounts from warehouse only.
Need help its urgent.
Thanks in advance.

Invoice is Item Type.
G/L Accounts are set by Warehouse. But if explicitly we are want to change the account on line level in that case, it is not getting reflected in Journal entry. On AR Invoice same scenario works perfectly. On line level I can change the accounts explicitly and have the effect on Journal entries.
Issue seems to be on AP side only.
As required please find attached the screen shots.
JEwith mapped GL Account on Warehouse
JEwith different GL Account on line Level via Form Settings
Thanks & Regards

AP invoice vs AP credit memo - Journal entry difference

Hello Experts,
This regarding Create A/P Invoice for an item with value 1000. Correspondingly create a A/P Credit memo for the same bill with 800 value. if you see journal entry the difference amount is tracking in Exp. And Inv. Variance Acct. if it is single of warehouse.
My scenario is GL account set by warehouse. And in our project there are six different warehouses.
Above scenario happens in all six different warehouses, can you guide me where to set Exp. And Inv. Variance Acct. in the warehouse accounting.
Please help me in this regard,
Thanks
Rayudu

Hi,
What is your valuation method.is it standard or moving average?
if it is moving average A/P credit memo will create a journal crediting the stock and debiting the vendor in case of stock item.
incase of noninventory expense gets credit and vendor gets debit.

A/P invoice line comments (or ref) to Journal Entry

Scenario:
a/p invoice, service type is created.
Several lines, but may post to same GL account.
Description field contains description that should also be visible on Journal entry, so on screen GL reports show the descriptive texts.
Reference is by document, not by line. The same goes for journal remark.
Any ideas on how to do this?

Hi......
I guess there is no chance to display as you are asking.
You have to create your own Query Report for this.....

Tying journal entries to AP Invoices

Does any one know of a way to find the AP invoice that has generated a Journal Entry. I need to get the vendor name and invoice description that generated the journal entry in Oracle Financials.
Can this be accomplished without modifing the Oracle Apps. or must we change the JE generating procedure to place the invoice_id in a JE flexfield?
Thank You

Hi,
JE numbering document can not base on origin document. But they can be set default by user only. That is system behavior.

Decimal Places in Item Cost must be 6 characters while in Journal Entry 2.

I have the following problem:
Accounting needs to see and work with 2 decimal places, but the item cost is needed in 6 decimals.
If I register a A/P Invoice and i go to the Journal Remark, the Journal Entry should be in 2 decimals. If i look for the Item Cost on the Wharehouse this cost should be in 6 decimals.
Is there a way to handle Accounting in 2 units and Cost in 6 Units
Thank You very much

Hi Saul,
The request appears illogical, how can the accountant work with 2 decimal places & the item valuation is held with 6? The stock account with 2 decimals will never match the stock audit report with 6 decimals.
I'm afraid the SAP Business One core functionality does not cater for this need. There are no 'behind the scenes' journal entries. A JE is legally binding so you need to decide whether you wish to work with the most accurate calculations regarding item cost as possible (6 decimals) or accommodate the accountants & work with 2 decimals in the journals.
You might want to take the nature of the stock into consideration, if there are huge quantities at small individual prices 6 decimals might be better, if you use mainly standard cost &/or have no major cost fluctuations when using MAP/FIFO, 2 decimals might be sufficient.
All the best,
Kerstin

NULL Value in Journal Entry and Wrong Tax Summary

Hi people,
I need your expert help for a big problem that appens to some customers.
They run SAP BO 8.8 SP:00 PL:12
This is the scenario:
You insert a new documet, A/R Invoice or A/P Invoice is the same, problem appear in all of them.
After you insert the document, using SQL Server Management try this Select statment:
Select * from JDT1 where JDT1.debit is null OR JDT1.credit is null
A list of record where listed. And, this is the problem, NULL values are all in the VAT Lines in debit or credit colums.
If you try to make a SUM(debit-credit) you discovery that, 1000,00-null=null
Consequently, TAX Sumary report, that probably use arithmetic operation like me in SELECT statment, count a wrong number when null values in DEBIT or CREDIT column in JDT1 for VAT declaration.
How could I solve? And how i can make invoices store 0 rather than NULL in the VAT Line?
Thanks in advance for your tips and solutions

Thaks Neetu for your answer.
I thinks there is a misurandertanding.
My problem is not SQL.
My problem is the SAP TAX Report.
I used SQL only for check data and discover why SAP raise a wrong TAX Summary report.
So, my question is: Why invoices write null values in journal entry, and how I can solve the problem that TAX summary report use null value in operations so the results are wrong.
Thanks,
Jonny Cortonicchi

Preview of Journal Entry - G/L effect , GL Mapping reference

Hi All,
I have observed that due to non availability of preview of Journal Entry - G/L effect, there are chances that customer/users come to know of wrong G/L Mapping after the posting of transaction.
If an option to preview the G/L effects before adding a transaction e.g. A/R Invoice,Sales Delivery etc... is available than the customer/user can rectify the G/L Mapping or the G/L selection at the transaction level.
Also if one column say GL mapping reference can be added in Journal Entry, the purpose is to store infromation from where the SAP B1 has picked up the GL e.g. from GL increase , GL deccrease , Price Difference from Item Group,Ware House,Item Level GL Mapping.
Best Regards,
Samir Gandhi

Dear Peter Dominik,
I think it is good to show the to be Journal entry effect on click on Add botton, this way user will not have to take additional pain click on preview button to see the JE, but for all cases every user will have to forcefully see the JE screen and confirm that it is OK, and he/she will not be able to change it.

Background Journal entry for Incoming payment

Dear Experts,
Would you please help me in how to get the journal entry for an incoming payment entered as "payment on account".
The relationship map does not show this, but I can see the credit entry for the customer is passed.
same happens for incoming payment made for specific AR invoices.
SAP Doc says...
Result
An incoming payment document is created.
A journal entry that credits the customer and the tax accounts (if tax is involved), and debits the receivable account, is created.
The journal entries of the incoming payments and the paid invoices are reconciled.
The paid invoices are closed; they no longer appear in the Open Items list and in the Incoming Paymentswindow as documents for payment.
So how to check the journal entries for incoming payments.
Regards

Hi,
To see journal entry, drill down arrow at transaction no of incoming payment window.
Thanks & Regards,

Standard Goods Receipt PO resulting in odd Journal Entries

I posted a Goods Receipt PO which inculded quantity 3 of an item that is $77.60.
Normally, this should create a Journal Entry where Inventory gets debited $7760x3=$232.80 and the allocation Account (GOODS RECEIVED NOT INVOICED) on the credit side for the same amount (232.80).
However this time the resulting JE
(1) credited GOODS RECEIVED NOT INVOICED for the expected amount (price x quantity = 232.80)
(2) also credited COGS for $1472.37 and
(3) debited inventory by $1705.17 (the expected $232.80, plus the unexpected $1472.37).
Why is the $1472.37 included in this transaction at all - it should have only credited GOODS RECEIVED NOT INVOICED and debited INVENTORY both by $232.80.
We use FIFO. We do allow negative inventory, however this inventory item was not in negative quantity.
thanks!
Geoff

Gordon, thanks
When you say "the cost posted would be the earliest inventory for those items" what do you mean?
I understand that if I posted an AR Invoice , the COGS would be calculated from the oldest available layer, or if the item had a negative quantity on hand, it would have posted the price difference between those transactions that caused the inventory to go negative and the actual price once a transaction occurred that brought the inventory to zero / positive. Or if there is a difference in price between a GRPO and AP Invoice, the difference is allocated to the Price Difference Account.
However in a normal GRPO inventory should be debited, and Goods Received Not Invoiced (allocation account) credited... Why is there a JE to to any other accounts period?
What circumstances could cause these?.
Prior to this GRPO, the inventory audit showed the item at 70 on hand, $670 cumulative value. After the GRPO (on which the GRPO Total is $232.80), the inventory audit says 88 on hand and $2375.34 in cumulative value. This doesn't make sense
