Create a CREDIT MEMO , WITHOUT ADDING

Hi all,
I need to create a CREDIT MEMO and save it as a draft , without being allowed to add it, and without Approvall Procedures. Anyone here has a solution on this issue?
Thank you.

Goto Admin -> System Initialization -> Authorization -> Select the User from the left frame and from the right frame choose Sales u2013 A/R -> Document Draft
The various authorizations are :
u2022 Full Authorization u2013 The user can open the Document Drafts window, open existing drafts, modify them and add them as genuine documents.
u2022 Read-Only u2013 The user can view Document Drafts. Read-Only authorization will not allow a user to save a document as a draft (File u2192Save as Draft).
u2022 No Authorization u2013 The user cannot open the Document Drafts window.
For your requirement set to 'Read-Only ' which will not allow user to save a document as draft.
The limitation is that it is applicable for all marketing documents. (But you wanted it only for CREDIT MEMO)

Is it possible to create a Credit memo without reference doc

Hi,
I need to create a billing document (VF01) without passing the refernce document number. Is there any way to create this? While creating the billing document i just want to pass only items.
Thanks In Advance,
Regards,
Raj

the answer is that you can create a Credit Memo request (sales document) without a reference to a billing document. The settings for this are maintained in
SPRO>Sales and Distribution>Sales>Sales Documents>Sales Document Header>Define Sales Document Types
In the sales document type, the field that controls whether a reference document is necessary is in the General Control pane and is called "Reference Mandatory" - BEZOB
If that field is blank you don't need a reference number. You can also generate the actual Credit Note (billing document) without any problems. All accounting entries are carried out as normal.
SAP help says:
Reference mandatory
Indicates whether, when you create a sales document, a reference document is mandatory. If so, the indicator also specifies which type ofreference document you should use.
Use
When you try to create a sales document that has a mandatory reference document, the system automatically prompts you for the number of the reference document.

COPA -Credit Memo without reference to a Billing Document

Hi -
When we create a credit memo without reference to a billing document ( Manully entering a value in condition type), Data flows to COPA as -ve irrespective of +/- sign ticked in KE4I. This creates inconsistancy if we chose +/- for some discount condition types as they come to COPA as positive when the credit memo is created with reference. Any ideas, how to handle this ??
More info: In SD conditon type maintenance plus/minus = positive. It has to be postive then only customer gets credited when a credit memo is created.
Thanks
Krishna

Thanks Ajay -
Example:
1) I have a condition type in billing Z012 - Additinal Discounts... asigned to VV230 - Discounts. From billing, VV230 gets a +ve value lets say $100.
2) I have a credit memo ( stand alone, not refering to a billing doc), it has a condition type ZZ12 which can be manually entered and is also assigned to VV230. Now, VV230 gets -ve values lets say -$50.
In reporting, VV230 shows $50 ( +100-50), but the total discounts given to customer is $150.
Where is it going wrong?
Thanks

AP Credit Memo Without Outgoing Excise Invoice

Hi ,
When we create an A/P Invoice for an excise item ,and then when we raise an A/P credit memo for the same .. Automatically an Outgoing Excise Invoice is created ...Now because of this the series of the outgoing excise invoice , which is created usally through sales is disrupted and its a legal issue over here .. So Can you please let me know if there is any other way to raise the A/P credit memo without the OEI being created .. The exicable tick does not work as we are not able to change the Tax code from the A/P credit memo.
Thank you for your answers and suggestions ,
Best Regards ,
Arul..

This is a limitation with SAP Business One.
What we do as a workaround is, create a seperate numbering Series for 'Outgoing Excise Invoice' say 'APRet' and set this series as default to some user say 'Raman'
While booking 'AP Credit Memo' we login with user 'Raman' and book the document and in turn it uses 'APRet' series for 'Outgoing Excise Invoice' without violating legal issues.
Hope this would solve your problem.

Creating a credit memo by referring Billing document

Hi All,
 I am creating a Credit memo Say CM by reffering a Billing document say B.The Billing document has been created from a Contract say C.
 Now while creating the CM the contract dates need to be copied from C to the contract data screen of CM.
 I have used Copying control Billing Document to Sales Document for achieving this.
 I have edited the VEDA(Contract data) in the routines 302,303,402 etc. but its not reflecting in Contract data of CM screen.
 Please help me in resolving this.
Thanks and Regards,
Siva

Hi,
Create a new pricing procedure without the condition type you donot wish to appear in the credit note. create/ use a different document pricing procedure for the credit note, do the required assignments.. this will meet the requirements

Credit memo without cancelling the invoice

Hello ,
my customer has a request to create a credit memo for full invoice and then invoice the delivery note again
with different price in the invoice.........But without cancelling the original invoice.
As far I know SAP standard dont allow this kind of procedure due the status of the delivery.Am I right?
In which way this could be done?What is the right procedure for creating credit memo ?
Thanks and best regards
L

Hi Luis,
This is kind of wierd requirement. How can there be 2 legitimate invoices for 1 order/delivery??
If you dont cancel the first one, system will not allow you to create a new one.
Did you check with the users as to why they want such thing.. You can expalin them the process and make them understand.
Let us know.

SB

What is tcode to create a credit memo ?

What is tcode to create a credit memo ? please tell me the steps ?

Hello,
Credit memo: Document type - G2
1. Credit memo is generally issued in two cases - either when customer returns goods previously purchased and requires a credit or customer is credited without reference to any return of goods when goods sent to him are found to be defective and a return delivery or a repair would exceed the cost. in this case the customer is requested to scrap the material sent and is given an account credit.
2. Another case is when the customer is over charged for goods he purchased and we only realise that after billing.
3. when configuring the sales document type credit memo request G2 you can automatically set a billing block that can be released by an authorised person during processing prior to billing.
4. It is the billing in the finance dept, which in turn is the actual creation of a credit note that is sent to the customer.
5. It is suggested to make the rejection reason, reference to billing document (invoice) and billing block in credit memo a mandatory field to ensure the traceability.
6. standard item category used is G2N; order related billing type G2 (invoice)
7. Items in contracts and credit memo requests do not have schedule lines as there is no movement of material involved.
8. Update document flow is activated when using copy control rules for copying from an invoice to a credit memo request.

Credit memo without PO

Hi,
We have items in the system which were purchased from a vendor. These items are faulty and therefore can be scrapped, however the vendor is still willing to give us a credit memo.
The problem is that there is no PO relating to this item, and therefore can't create a credit memo in MIRO. (There is no PO because it was purchased before SAP was running in the company). How should we process this credit memo?
Thanks

You can create invoice without p.o using MIRO,activate g/l account tab,select transaction type -credit memo,
configure it using variant accordingly,
enter g/l account your business want to credit,select tax code if it is applicable or zero rate tax code.
Post invoice.
A/c entries generally will be Vendor a/c Dr to expense a/c

Credit Memo without Material Ref.

Hi ,
1) Can we create Credit memo without entering material Reference (Only Value needs to be Credited)?
2) Can we create Credit Memo for Freight & Insurance Value only (no other prices).
Please explain how can we map the same in SD.
Thanks in Regards,
Vikas

hello again.
for freight and insurance, your approach will depend on how these are treated. if freight and insurance are represented by material numbers, then these are entered in the credit and/or debit memo requests (also in sales orders). this will then be a straight-forward process. these items can have a set price, or the value can be manually entered.
however, freight and insurance are sometimes represented as condition types, these can then be entered manually in the order at header and/or item level again depending on your approach.
regards.

Credit Memo Without Invoice

Hi friends.
Is their Any BAPI OR FM To Create Credit Memo Without Invoice.
Or if We can do it By Any Other Method Then Please Tell Me.
Thanks.

Hi swapnil,
for that u wud 1st need to create a settlement order i.e SO & in reference to that u wud be able to create a credit memo.
try FM BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDATA, BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE.
Going further u can use BAPI_BILLINGDOC_CREATEFROMDATA or BAPI_BILLINGDOC_CREATEMULTIPLE.
This is what i'd done for my requirement, not sure if this helps u.
but from what i understand credit memo is a billing doc/invoice itself.

Error while creating a credit memo with reference to invoice

HI aLL,
I am facing one issue while creating a credit memo request in VA01 with reference to invoice.
Our project stock is valuated stock.
When we try top copy the error pops up" Valuated project stock not allowed with customer stock." and the line item is not copied in the credit memo.
Diagnosis:The entered wbs manages a valuated project stock,at the same time sales order stock is maintained on sales order line item.this combo is not allowed as different valuation methods within a project is not allowed.
Tarun Kapur

Dear Tarun!
1.Within a project we can get stock only in PROJECT or in SALES ORDER STOCK.....a single material can not be a both place at particular time ..so keep only one
Project Stock or Sales Order Stock..
2.Check DIP PRofile (ODP1) in usage BILLING AND RESULT ANALYSIS -Charectiristic -SDOC TYPE CMR.....are you selecting right document to which you want to copy .....
