Credit Memo Invoice - Configurable Material

I have a sales order with configurable material and the appropriate invoice.
Sales Order has type "credit memo request" and the invoice is a "_credit memo_".
It is not possible to release the document to Accounting/COPA.
Error message is "Error reading the material cost estimate for sales order xxxx".
What can I do to proceed? Which Customizing settings are necessary? Because it is correct, that there is no material cost estimate because the material is calculated while creating the sales order.
Thanks for your feedback in advance!
Best regards,
Pamela Glatz

HI,
Please check whether u have configured any costing key with setting for reading the cost estimate of the material.
As you said, the cost estimate of the material doesnt come in your scenario, there should not be any configuration in copa to read the cost estimate(thru costing key)

NOT with reference to PO for credit memo/invoice after invoice is posted

hi,
invoice is posted then vendor come back with correction.
1) if i create credit memo NOT with reference to PO then the treatment is not similar to subsequent credit?
2) if i create invoice NOT with reference to PO then the treatment is not similar to subsequent debit?
thanks

Hello Eliana,
Its unclear in your thread, how you are going to do it.
For creating an invoice / credit memo, you have to refer either a PO/schduling agreement / delivery note (migo).
In all the cases, it will get linked with the PO - MIGO.
What you have to understand is the functionality and the posting that will happen.
If you select
Invoice / credit memo - GR/IR clearing account and vendor account
Subsequent credit/debit - Stock account and vendor account
The difference in posting has its own significance. It will affect the MAP if your material price control is V.
If qty and value variance is there, use the functionality invoice/credit memo.
If only price variation - use subsequent credit/debit.

Credit memo/invoice (PRD) vs subsequent cr/dr (Stock acc)

hi,
GR - qty 20080 value 3950
IR - qty 20080 value 3950
after vendor invoice is posted, there is a credit memo and invoice, both with reference to the same PO.
1 if credit memo qty 20080 (same qty) value 1000, system will credit prd 1000?
2 in point 1, only value impacted. if i use subsequent credit, system will credit stock account 1000?
3 if invoice qty 20080 (same qty) value 1000, system will debit prd 1000?
4 if point 3 only value impacted, if i use subsequent debit, system will debit stock account 1000?
thanks

1) create credit memo qty 20080 (same qty) value 1000. 1000 will be credited PRD.
see credit memo is posted when value and qty both changes. now u r posting a credit memo of qty 20080 means u are revering the whole invoice of qty 20080 and value 3950. so for the above scenario the value will be 3950 not 1000.
my AP dept is posting as what my point 1 question. which is why i am asking here. i agree with your explanation but i do not understand why my AP dept can credit PRD 1000.
2) may i know GRC(Gr/IR clearing account) and stock account, are they the same?
No the GR/Ir accout is not same as stock account. stock account is one which gives u total stock value for a perticular material. this account is attached to valuation class and valuation class is attached to material master accounting view so see the total stock value for u organization u have see the value of this stock account.
whereas GR/IR account acts as clearing account means when u do gr it is credited and when u do invoice against gr it is debited so that value becomes 0. it acts as intermitiate account between stock account and vendor accounts.
During GR stock acc + ve
GR/IR acc -ve
During Invoice Vendor account - ve
GR/Ir acc + ve
3) if GRC and stock account different, how can directly update stock account without changing the GRC account?
this happens in case where GR is done first and then invoice. So when u do invoice and if there is some difference in price of material from the price with is used during GR then the difference amount is loaded ( increase or decrese ) from stock account so that proper value is loaded on material.
I hope u get clear from this explanation.
for more details try to do the cycle and see the behavior. once u do all the cycle u will get clear.

Credit Memo Request configuration

Gurus,
Could you please explain the configuration of
- Sales document type credit memo request (VOV8)
- Releasing or Rejecting credite memo by person responsible and
If the value of the credit memo request is below a certain minimum limit
- Billing document type credit memo
Regards,
Ashish

Hi Ashish,
Goto VOV8 T.code and then Selct the Order type as CR and click on copyas or F6.
Create your own document type as "ZCR" etc... and maintain the billing block as "08".Maintain reference mandatory as "M".In general we are creating with reference to an invoice.
Save.
Goto T.Code "VOFA" and then select the billing document type as "G2" and click on copy as or F6.
Save with your own name as "ZG2" etc...
Assign this billing document to your ZCR in VOV8 under order related billing as ZG2.
Save.
When you create the creditmemo request with reference to an invoice the billing block will come as "08".
The authorised persons only can remove this block.This can be done using the workflow.When the value is more than certain amount then the mail will triggered into the authorised persons mail id in SAP.They can check and release it using SBWP T.Code.
Then one can create the creditmemo with reference to this credit memo request.
Regards,
Krishna.

hi all,
i have been seeking advice with regard to this area. I am happy that i am getting clearer.
i would like to have verification on 6 points below if my understanding is correct.
GR - qty 20080 value 3950
IR - qty 20080 value 3950
after vendor invoice is posted, there are 6 possible scenario i may need to create in relation to the posted invoice.
1) create credit memo qty 20080 (same qty) value 1000. 1000 will be credited PRD.
2) only value changed. create subsequent credit 1000, 1000 will be credited stock account.
3) create credit memo qty 1000, value 1000, 1000 will be affecting GRC
4) create invoice qty 20080 (same qty) value 1000. 1000 will be debited PRD.
5) only value changed. create subsequent debit 1000, 1000 will be debited stock account.
6) create invoice qty 1000, value 1000, 1000 will be affecting GRC.

Oracle Apps 11i AP Credit Memo & Invoice Link in tables

Hello,
How do we link the credit memo to an invoice from the tables. For example if i know the credit memo number how do i find that credit memo is linked to which invoice.(I believe the table is AP_Invoices_All but not sure which column)
Thank you
Ashok

Hi.
A Credit Memo can be considered the opposite of a Standard Invoice. It can be due to severeal reasons like, for example, when you claim to your supllier that the price for a certain good or service was higher than the agreed he can send you a Credit Memo in the amount of the price difference. You have recorded the Invoice (let's say $100) for the wrong price and now you will record the CM (let's say $10) for a negative amount being that the sum of the two documents correspond to the correct purchase you have done.
This way, the table AP_INVOICE_PAYMENTS_ALL records the CM with a negative amount allowing you to pay the two documents (the positive invoice and the negative CM) for the net amount.
About the journals entries:
Invoice
DR Cost $100
CR Liabilty $100
CM
DR Liability $10
CR Cost $10
Payment
DR Liability $90
CR Bank $90
Hope this helps,
Octavio

Credit Memo - Invoice VAT and Credit Memo VAT differs

I have a scenario where the invoice generated had 16% VAT. In July, VAT was changed to 18%. When generating a crdit memo request for an old invoice... the header and item conditions tab showed 16% VAT. When credit memo request is released and save, and it transferred to biling, i get VAT at 18%.
I tried to change the billing date and bill doc creation date in Credit memo request...to June.. prior ot VAT increase date.   but i am still getting current 18% VAT.
Does anyone know where i can maintain or have the effective date maintained for the correct VAT? I am using CRM billing.

Hi PP,
thankyou. My Credit memo request has the previous date. Date of Confirmation and service rendered.
When billing, i am not able to change settings.. as the fields were greyed out.
I am not too familiar with CRM billing .. but in ECC .. we use the Date Service Rendered. this date would take the correct VAT effective date.
When i go to the item overview, all the fields have been greyed out.   and i am not able to change any fields. is there somewhere in the settings that i could make the Pricing date and Date Serv. Rendered   editable in the credit memo
thank you

Credit Memo Invoice Reference for EDI (Inbound)

Hello,
When posting Credit Memos with EDI, SAP is not checking the invoice reference in IDOC segment E1EDK02 QUALF 009 to match the credit memo for vendor invoice that is already posted in the system.
Is there a note or config that needs to be done to invoke the reference number checking for Credit Memos?
We are on ECC 5.0 using INVOIC02.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.

Credit Memo all my material items to be directly posted to Balance Sheet account

Hi Experts
My client has a scenario where for certain items they create a credit memo request document and finally a credit memo document from the VKOA system is picking the revenue bearing GL and posting all the line items to that G/L account
Manually my customer is again checking and extracting the p/l and posting to balance sheet account
is there a way where we can directly post these entries to Balance Sheet account
Best Regards
Waseem

Hi Sanil
Thanks for the quick reply, can we assign a balance sheet account directly in VKOA in the G/L account field or do we need to add this in directly in Provision acc field
As suggested by you we already have the access sequence with respect to Order Reason, I am just doubtful wether we can directly give Balance Sheet account in G/L account field

Credit memo or invoice vs subsequent credit/debit

hi,
after invoice is posted, there is a correction from vendor. no quantity change. only value change.
1 if only value affected, can i create credit memo with reference to PO rather than use subsequent credit? still giving the same result right?
2 if only value affected, can i create invoice with reference to PO rather than use subsequent debit? still giving the same result right?
thanks
rgds

Hello Eliana ,
1 if only value affected, can i create credit memo with reference to PO rather than use subsequent credit? still giving the same result right?
No , if only value changes, you have to use subsequent credit / debit. Credit memo is used to reduce the vendor liability with change in qty.
Credit memo is done in case of material to be returned to vendor. When you post a credit memo, the postings are reversed from the GR/Ir clearing account and the vendor account. But when you post a subsequent credit/debit the postings will be to the stock account and the vendor account.
The account postings for a subsequent debit/credit depend on the quantity that the subsequent debit/credit applies to:
If the quantity of the subsequent debit/credit is smaller than or the same as the quantity delivered, the system tries to post the subsequent debit/credit to the stock account. If the material is valuated with a standard price or if there is insufficient stock coverage for the quantity to be debited or credited, the amount is posted to a price difference account.
If the quantity of the subsequent debit/credit is larger than the quantity delivered, the system distributes the relevant amount proportionally. The part of the subsequent debit/credit that does not have a goods receipt is posted to the GR/IR clearing account. The remaining amount is posted to the stock account u2013 or in the case of standard price control or insufficient stock coverage u2013 to a price difference account.
2 if only value affected, can i create invoice with reference to PO rather than use subsequent debit? still giving the same result right?
No, if you create one more invoice, the qty invoiced will be increased by the qty you mention in the invoice.
ie if you have posted an invoice for 100 qty @ 10 per qty and again if you try to post the difference amount of 250 for total 100qty, system will update the invoice qty as 200, and it is wrong.
You have to use subsequent credit/debit.
So the thumb rule is that, if only value changes after Invoice verification, use subsequent credit/ debit and if there is qty and value changes, use credit memo / invoice.
Regards
Gregory Mathews

How do you show an AcctsRec. Invoice being paid by a larger Credit Memo ?

How do you apply a partial part of a Credit Memo on a Customers Account to an invoice he owes which is smaller than the Credit Memo? Example: the Credit Memo is for $10,000 and the invoice is for $2,000.
Thanks.
Points will be awarded.
Kathy

When you clear an invoice that is smaller than the value of credit memo it will result in a credit residual.
Use F-32
select both items (invoice and credit memo)
Click on residual items tab
Double click on the white space under residual item column against the credit memo and it will result in the difference amount(credit memo - invoice)
Then post it

Funds management invoice credit memo

Hi,
I've been implementing FM module. The problem I get is that when I try to post credit memo invoice, this does not update my assigned funds, while it should (at least that's logical for me). The system should reduce assigned and commitments/actual and increase my available funds for a specified funds center and commitment item.
Is it correct what the system does?
Regards,
Ola

hi,
i can understand your reply.
but why the treatment is different from the general understanding below:
Invoice / credit memo - GR/IR clearing account and vendor account
Subsequent credit/debit - Stock account and vendor account
if
GR - qty 20080 value 3950
IR - qty 20080 value 3950
Kindly verify if below 4 points are correct.
after invoice posted, if i do credit memo reference to the same PO,
1) qty remained the same 20080 and value is less, say 1000, this 1000 is posted to credit prd?
2) if qty say, 1000 and value 1000 also, double entry will be hitting GRC?

MWST-group condition rounding difference between invoice and credit memo

Hi Experts,
I have an issue with MWST rounding issue.
Before jumping into the actual problem these are the prerequisites
SAP Version: ECC6.0
Condition type: MWST, with group condition tick enabled!
US Scenario (No Implication of CIN)
Scenario: - From Billing document  to Credit memo invoice.
When a invoice is referenced to the credit memo, there is a difference in the rounding value.
E.g.: Invoice tax value: 387.34 when completely referenced to credit memo become;s 387.31.
Please throw some light on it!

Hi,
Check Note 315792 - Group conditions of the same amount on item and related notes.
Perhaps Note 80183 - Rounding will help you too.

Eduardo
