Automatic invoice reduction - MIRO XBLNR1 - Reference field

Question

Hello all,
I've set up the automatic invoice reduction in MIRO due to errors in vendor invoice (with subsequent credit received in paper).
In this process there are two FI documents (A1 for invoice and background A2 for reduction) regarding the original MM document.
The user uses "refence" field in invoice header to relate to the vendors physical document but the field only goes into A1 (BKPF) document and not A2, event with this A2 being background document and in it's master this reference field being mandatory...
How can I put the reference field in A2 as well?
Regards.

Hello,
Procedure for posting the Invoice Reduction :
(1) Enter the T.Code MIRO - Select the Transaction as Invoice only.
(2) Give the reference number ( Example PO Number) for which you want to create an Invoice.
(3) In the Display Variant, Select Invocie Reduction.
(4) Maintain the required details and post the Invocie.
Example: Invoice Reduction due to Quantity Variance:
PO: 100 nos @ 10 EUR/No
GR: 40 nos
Invoice: 40 nos @ 12 EUR/No = 480 EUR
When you enter Invoice,
Order Qty Order Amount Invoiced Qty Invocied Amt
40 400
Select Reduce Invocie in the Display Variant.
Enter the Quantity and Amount stated in the Invocie in the fields Invoice quantity acc. vendor and Invoice amount acc. vendor.
Order Qty Order Amount Invoiced Qty Invocied Amt
40 400 40 480
When you post the Invocie, Purchase order history will be updated as follows:
Quantity Value
Total Delivered 40 400
Total Invoiced 40 400
Accounting Documents:
GR:
Stock Account = 400
GR/IR Clearing Account = 400(-)
Invoice:
Vendor Account = 480(-)
GR/IR Clearing Account = 400(-)
Invoice Reduction Clearing Account = 80(+)
Automatic Credit Memo:
Vendor Account = 80(+)
Invoice Reduction Clearing Account = 80(-)
