BAPI for Non PO Invoice posting?

Question

Hi Experts,
   I am posting invoices using BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE. These invoices have POs associated with the Item Details. This is working fine for me.
   I want to post invoices that DO NOT have a PO. Can someone please point me to a BAPI that is similar to BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE in functionality but does not require a PO?
Thanks,
- Vik.

Answer 1

I too was looking for a BAPI for non PO invoice posting.  I found that the above counsel did not work for me.  Instead of creating a buyside invoice, it just created a journal entry.  What DID work for me was BAPI_ACC_INVOICE_RECEIPT_POST.
Below, I am pasteing the subroutines that I created for its calling.  In it, for my purposes, only the invoice amount is parameter driven.  My needs allowed all other BAPI parameters to stay the same.
I hope that this helps someone.
