Can a credit memo be posted with zero amount?

Can a credit memo be posted with zero amount? What would it mean, that the goods qty have been posted free of cost?
Pls reply...
Thanks,
Swati.

yes, It depends upon the procurement...
I have raised a PO for 100 pieces, But the Vendor will supply only in Dozens..
That means for 100 pices , we will receive 9 Dozens( 108 pieces)..
Similarly some times if it's a Fragile material , the Vendor will send more pieces as a buffer..
If IR Qty > GR Qty , it becomes Qty variance..
Similarly I received 100 Qty & 5 pieces are Sub-Standard, then I will raise Credit memo for that...

  • Can this credit memo be posted?

    Hi,
    I have tried and failed posting the following credit memo. Is there any reason why sap doesn't allow me to post such a credit memo?
    Vendor amt: -48
    Vendor tax: 120
    First Item amt: 2399
    First Item tax: 121
    Second Item amt: : -2567
    Second Item tax: -1
    Both items have the same tax code.
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    Please tell what is the error you are getting.
    I feel debit and credit amounts are not matching. As per your query if '-' stands for credit and rest all debit items, there is a balance remaining.
    Reply me if i am wrong.

  • EDI Credit Memo with Zero amount

    Dear Experts,
    We are using EDI for MIRO Invoice posting. PO is Non-GR Based Invoice. So IR has been automatcally posted first (ex: qty = 4)
    Then GR has been posted also with qty =4.  Then Credit memo was posted with Qty = 1, but we noticed that the posting has zero amount, then Accounting Document has posting to Stock Account and GR/IR Clearing account with amount = to 1 Qty.
    Can anyone explain what happened? I know that Credit Memo posting should have posting to Vendor Account, but this case it didn't happen.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi.. thanks for your input.
    Yes, I understand that the posting is coming from Vendor, but I am confused, why the posting has zero amount?
    As I understand, credit memo is dealing with the amount of the qty that might be has defect that we have to deduct this amount to Vendor payment. But what happened is, it only posted to Stock Account and GR/IR clearing account, no Vendor Line was created in the FI Doc because in the IR document itself does not have the amount.
    Thank you and your further input will be highly appreciated.

  • Credit memo for returns with multiple reference deliveries

  • Posting with ZERO

    Hi,
    I have one of the issue in Travel regarding posting of FI. Got an error in PRRW saying "Posting with ZEROs Posted". Right now trip status is transfer to fI but when i double click on PRRW error it is showing blank screen.
    May i know why it is happening.
    Thanks
    Parag

    Please have a look at the consulting note 170334 which has comprehensive details on posting runs with zero but one question.. was the trip initially posted  to FI (eg with advance?) and then changed subsequently.. that can be the reason for subsequent posting with zero
    Hope it helps

  • Replace AR Credit Memo Request Workflow with a new Custom Workflow

    Hello friends,
    We have a business requirement to replace the AR Credit Memo Request Workflow with a new Custom Workflow whenever an Invoice is disputed (Oracle Advanced Collections).
    The Credit Memo Request workflow is being launched within the Oracle API arw_cmreq_cover. We thought of an approach wherein the Oracle form IEXINDTL.fmb can be renamed and the Custom workflow to be called in the WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger on Dispute Button instead of calling the program Unit IEXINDTL_CONTROL.DISPUTE (as in standard form) which inturn calls several API's and hence the AR Credit Memo Request Workflow. But this would override the other standard processes being carried out in these API's. Our requirement is to only replace the AR Credit Memo Request Workflow and not to override the other standard processes.
    Does anyone have come across the similar requirement? Please let us know your inputs.
    Thanks in Advance !

    I ran across the same error today. Since it's been over a month, I assume you've fixed it already or decided you didn't need it at all? What was your fix?
    For me, I noted that in the sample directory, a similar "createView" call (in End User Anonymous Enrollment) also includes this argument:
    <Argument name='viewId' value='User'/>
    When I added that to my createView call, the "Missing view id" error went away, and the user are gets created.
    I'm not entirely comfortable with the value specified, though; seems like view IDs should be more unique. I would have thought it should have been something like this instead:
    <Argument name='viewId' value='User:$(accountId)'/>

  • Outgoing payment with Zero amount when Full adance is paid

    I am making A/P down payment request based on purchase order, then I make full payment of PO (full advance payment - no amount of payment left with) through "Outgoing payment" which creates negative amount in Business partner balance and shows a negative entry in "outgoing payment" screen. Moving further, I make Goods receipt PO and then I make A/P invoice of regular amount based on goods receipt PO / Purchase order.
    Up till now, the full payment has been made in advance through A/P down payment request and upon receiving goods the A/P invoice of regular amount is received. Now when I go to "outgoing payments" I have no amount left to pay (i.e. It displays 2 entries of same amount, one with positive amount of A/P invoice and the other one with negative amount of A/P down payment request to show the due balance = zero)  So I am trying to clear the vendor "outgoing payments" by paying with Zero amount, but the system shows the error "The confirmation amount should be greater than Zero".
    How can I clear the vendor "Outgoing payments" with zero amount ?? as it's payment has been made in advance.
    Note: Please give me the solution by keeping in mind that I have to pay full amount in advance.
    Solution to this problem would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks and regards,
    Farhan Sufi

    Select the Vendor -
    Say copy from GR(PO), And select te One you wanted. At the bottom in the DPM Field give 100% and Add the Document.
    Step 4: Raise Out Going Payment by linking to the A/P Down Pmt what you have posted. ie., Go To Out Going Pmt Screen---Select the Vendor, This will display all invoices, Down pmts, Credit Memos, and JE's. Select the A/P Down Pmt what you have posted and go to payment means fill in the respective field and add the document.
    Step 5: Go To A/P Invoice Screen, select the vendor. And  click on Copy from GR(PO), Select the respective GR(PO) document.
    And At the Bottom double click on Total Down Payment Button, This will display the list of all Down Payments for which Out going payments are also posted. Here Select the respective Down payment and add the document.
    When you add this A/P Invoice document gets added and the status of the document will be closed. As you have made full payment in the A/P Down Payment Screen.

    Hi

  • Credit Memo is posting Debiting Customer Account instead of Crediting

    Hi Gurus,
    When i use SD Document Category "K" (Credit Memo) for Sales Order type "Credit Memo", first system shows all figures with Negative Sign "-" during my Pricing Condition maintanence at line item level of an Order (Credit Memo).
    Second and most importantly, System is posting the figures as "Debit" to Customer Account when i do the billing for the Credit Memo.
    If I change the SD Document Category to "C" (Order type), only then System Post the figure as "Credit" to Customer Account.
    But the problem is, i cannot use SD Document Category "C", because SAP would not let me reverse the Billing Doc, as it looks for SD Document Category "K" and hence the incomplete Reversed Credit Billing Doc would sit in VFX3.
    Pls advise, how can i fix/configure system with SD Document Category "K", so that, Figures are posted as "CREDIT" to a Customer Account.

    Check the T.Code: VKOA, OBYC & OB40 settings for account determination.

  • 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.
    Regards,

  • Excise invoice posted with Zero duty value

    Hi,
    My client has an STO process where they will generate a proforma Invoice with Excise duties,
    Initially when proforma was created excise duties were not reflecting since condition records were not maintained, user was not aware of that and created a excise invoice also with 0 Duty value.
    After this condition records were maintained and invoice was updated with excise values. But we are unable to update the excise tables through the same excise invoice no. This transaction is a back dated one for which client has already filed excise returns with SAP Excise number series, Can we pass a JV through FI to adjust the entries or any other solution.
    Regards,
    Zehran.

    Client has done PGI with ZERO quantity
          also done billing
    if i go to cancel that cancel invoice in J1IIN
         it is not allowing to cancel
    If your copy control is in line with standard settings, first of all you cannot post the goods issue without any quantity and also generation of billing is not possible.
    Coming to your second issue, please try in J1IH instead of J1IIN.
    thanks

  • Creating debit/credit memo in AP with Payables Interface

    Hello guys,
    I am able to create an invoice using the payables interface table AP_INVOICES_INTERFACE and running the Payables Open Interface concurrent program. My question is, is it possible to create a debit/credit memo in AP as well through the interface tables?
    Many Thanks

    Hi.
    If the invoice amount is zero or positive then the value is STANDARD. If the invoice amount is negative then the value is CREDIT. This means you can upload Standard invoices and Credit Memos.

  • Subesequent credit memo became Credit Memo upon posting.

    Dear MM Gurus,
    We were trying to post subsequent credit memo for our PO that has price changed, but when we post and save it from miro, when we check in PO it became credit memo. That's why the qty was been affected.
    Any idea why upon posting it was change to credit memo?
    Thank you in advance.

    HI Tina,
    If you enter a subsequent credit, the system suggests the entire invoiced quantity, but no value. The maximum quantity that you can subsequently credit is the quantity that has already been invoiced. You can only enter a subsequent debit/credit for a purchase order item if an invoice has already been posted for this item.
    it is std SAP functionality.
    Suppose PO is of qty 100 value 2000 and sub. credit is posted 200
    Now in PO history
            Qty         Amount in LC
    WE  100        2000      (GR entry)
    RE -L 100     2000      (IR entry)
    NB -L 100-   200-   (Subsequenty Credit)
    system consider charge subs. credit for whole invoice qty which is alreday posted.
    Here system is not reversing any qty but posting in refrence to that qty.
    Hope help u !
