Credit memo -- with ref to invoice

Hello All,
This is my scenario:
1 Invoice with value 100.
2 Credit memo whith value 100 with ref. to invoice.
3 The system let me create more credit memos for the same invoice exceeding de invoice original value. (it just informes me that there are other credit memos) How can I prevent this ?
I checked copy control and Pos./neg. quantity--i put as "+" and in Item Category TAN- Completion Rule  mark as "A".
Regards,
Ashu

Hi Ashutosh singh
Credit Memo and the invoice are different and the two r used in different scenarioes
Credit Memo is the Billing document raised for compensating the customer and the the document is raised with reference to the the Credit Memo request
The scenarios is that the customer places an order with the company and the company delivers the fgoods to the customer in which some of thm are dmaged and the customer then claims for the compensation , so the company asks the customer to return the goods to the company and simultaneously they will pay the compensation
process flow is as
Created the standard order OR
then do the deliver LF
then billing document F2
and then raise the credit memo request for the goods G2
thenBilling which is the credit memo
G2
This is the special process where the goods are received and the customer does not want the replacement of the dmaged goods and instead he wants the amout to be credited
so we have to raise the credit meemo request with reference to the standard illing document and then the credit memo request and then billing document G@
but in the standsrd invoice we havae to creatae the created the standsrd and then the delivery and then the invoice
Invoice
order (VA01)>Delivery(VL01N)>Change Delivery(VL02N)&PGI>INVOICE
EX:
Order type:OR
credit memo:
for the return material or discount is missing for the material,we create credit memo request.credit memo has sent to customer
order (VA01)>CREDIT MEMO(VF01).
NO DELIVERY PROCESS.WITH REF. to BILLING DOCUMENT,we create credit memo request.
EX:
Order type:G2.

  • Tax Rate Determination in Credit Memos With Ref to Invoices

    The requirement in US is that when the customer has changed his address to a different region, from that where the services was supplied (The region in which the customer (ship-to party) was residing when the invoice was raised) and if a credit memo is raised with reference to this invoice, then the taxes applicable on the credit memo for this customer should be the rates applicable for the state where the original invoice was raised. However currently in SAP the new customer address is updated in the billing document (invoice that was raised for the region where the customer had his place of business previously) and hence the original region code in the invoice will not be available and will be overridden with new region code.
    Consider the following example:
    1 - Invoice raised on 01-Jan-2010 to a customer whose region is Florida and tax rate is "X %"
    2 - On 01-Feb-2010 the customer in Florida changes his place of business to Texas region.
    3 - On 01-March-2010 a credit memo is raised with reference to the invoice dated 01-Jan-2010 u2013 On this credit memo the tax rate applicable will be of the region of Texas u2013 Example u201CY%u201D
    The requirement is that in the credit memo the system should capture the original region code or there should be a provision to change the region code of the customer (ship-to party) at line item level u2013 so that the tax determined is applicable to the region where the customeru2019s place of business originally existed.
    From our side we did check the SAP screen for Creation of contract/Order (VA41/VA01) u2013 However we were unable to find the customer region field in these screens at line item level.
    We request you to please look into this at the earliest and let us know what the options that exist for this are.
    Please also let us know should you require any clarifications with reference to the above requirement.
    Regards
    Siddharth Sridhar

    Hi Siddharth,
    As for the region code that you mentioned, in fact yes, you can change during transaction creation, and Region is coming from the customer master record that you maintained.
    You can find it at the Item level --> Partners, but you will not be able to change the Region there.
    To change it, double click on the Sold-to Party at Header level, then select Sold-to Party --> Details.. Here you can change the Region accordingly.  It will reflect accordingly at the Item level --> Partners.
    Note: This change will not change the central master data maintained for this customer. It will only affect this document.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • Sales Return Process-Invoice(Credit Memo) with ref. to delivery

    Dear All,
    I am doing sales return process.
    Sales Order-RE
    Delivery-LR
    Invoice-RE,
    with ref. to sales order it is allowing me to create invoice.
    But,with ref. to delivery it is not allowing.
    It is giving "The document is not relevant for billing".
    I have changed item category  REN for delivery (A) related billing.
    Also changed req. copy control setting.
    Can anybody guide on this issue.
    Best Regards
    Sainath

    Hello,
    Normally return credit memo will be generated with reference to the retrun order, and that is the standard SAP process. Do you have any specific requirements to have the credit memo with reference to a retrun delivery?
    The Item category REN Billing Relevence will be B as per SAP standard, if you wish to have a delivery related credit RE, the make this to A .
    Maintain the Delivery to Billing Copying control in VTFL for LR --> RE, add the item categroy REN.
    Maintain the copying requirements for header as 3 Header Del Rel and for item as 4 Deliv-Related item .
    Once these setting are done, then check whether the RE billing type is triggering from LR?

  • Lockbox - credit memo w/ref to invoice selected when paying invoice only

    Hello Experts,
    We are implementing automation of lockbox and have encoutntered issues when paying invoices - create credit memos inreference to invoice are also selected which casues the payment to go "On account" as opposed to "Applied"
    E.x WE have Invoice# 123 for $100.00. We created a credit memo# 312 w/ref to invoice 123 (XBLNR for credit memo = 123) for $20.00.
    The customer is now paying invoice 123 for $100.00 and our business process is to refund the cusotmer later for $20.00 for which he received a credit.
    In FLBP, when we process the payment, the status is "On Account" becasue the open item total to $80.00 ($100.00 - $20.00).
    Has anybody encountered a similar issue? Any thoughts on how to address this?
    Thanks,
    Leela

    It was a problem with the payment advice. The Payment amount field needed to be filled for the program to pick only the invoice.

  • Credit memo  with ref to billing document

    Dear All ,
    i am facing a problem while creating a credit memo request with reference to the billing document .
    Actully there is a  seperate pricing procedure maintained for the credit memo and billing doc , but while creating the  credit memo w.r t   bolling doc ,, the pricing procedure  of the billing document is getting copied .
    pls help to get out of this prob .
    Thanks n regards
    satish

    Hi
    Please checkout the Documentary Pricing Procedure you have maintained for the Order Type: CR (Credit Memo Request). If you have maintained the same Pricing Procedure for Standard Sale (the Billing Document-F2) and for Credit Memo, the Pricing will be that of the Billing Document (Checkout OVKK for the Pricing Procedure being determined for your Sales Area and the Cust/Documentary pricing Procedure combination.

    PS: I assume you have taken care of the Copy Control in VTAF. You can always verify the standard settings in VTAF for the F2-CR Document types

  • Due date calculation for the credit memo with invoice reference.

    Hi,
    When we create the credit memo with reference to invoice, the due date for the credit memo is getting copied from Invoice. In this case if the invoice is due on 31.12.2008 and the credit memo is created on 10.09.2009, then the credit memo due date is appearing as 31.12.2008. It should be 10.09.2009 as per the setting in VOFA billing type customisation in "Credit Memo w/vldt".
    I would like to know how to customise the below requirement.
    If the reference invoice is due after the credit memo creation, the the credit memo should due as per the invoice date.
    If the invoice due is past & then the credit memo due date should be Immediate i.e. Due Immediately.
    Thanks in advance for help.
    Regards,
    Nithin

    I doubt there is such option. From the past projects I do remember that we made a change in the form to print the document date as 'Due Date' for credit memos. Credit memos were paid at once when they were processed and I think that payment term was copied from the original invoice, which made their due date far in future.

  • Why need to link credit memo with invoice

    Hi, gurus,
    I received an AP invoice valued $2222 and then received a credit memo valued $222 about 1 week later.
    Now I need to make payment.
    I was told it's good to link credit memo with invoice by entering invoice number in the field "invoice reference" when creating credit memo. But I'm not sure why it's better because system will pick up both items anyway when i entered $ 2000 using f-53 to make outgoing payment.
    The only reason i can think of is this link will guarantee that credit memo has the same terms of payment with invoice.
    Is there any other good reasons? Any help will be appreciated.

    Dear,
    We need to link credit memo with invoice against for two obvious reasons
    1.. Future tracking of all credit memo i-e if we gave excess credits to vendor then it was against which invoice. This will create linkage and tracking of credit memo with invoice that will be shown in FBL1N .
    2..At the end of specific time period ,month or quarter ,its a normal practise to reconcile vendor balance as per SAP ledger to that of vendor's own book. At that time you will need credit memo track also that against which invoice was the credit given.
    This all can be achived after posting credit memo with refrence to invoice number. Audit perpective should also be kept in mind. Hope this will help you

  • R12: Create on-account Credit Memo with invoicing and accounting rules

    In R12.1.2: when using the AR_INVOICE_API_PUB it seems to be impossible to create a on-account Credit Memo with invoicing and accounting rules. The next errors are returned by the API:
    - AR_INAPI_INV_RULE_NOT_REQUIRED
    Do not include an invoicing rule if the transaction type's class is Debit Memo or Credit Memo.
    - AR_INAPI_RULE_NOT_ALLOWED
    Do not enter an invoicing or accounting rule for on-account credit memos
    Please advice how to create on-account Credit Memo with invoicing and accounting rules using an API.

  • Partial Credit Memo for A/R Invoice with down payment

    Dear All,

    Hello,
    I am afraid there is no solution yet for this problem. You must create fully quantity credit memo. Maybe, others can have solution yet, so try to do not mark this message answered. The related notes number is 966038. let me know if you need it.

  • Credit Memo with reference to Sales Order

    Dear Friends,
    I am trying to configure customization for the new billing document type (Credit Memo) with reference to an existing sales order, and i want the new billing type also to be listed in the billing due list when we create the invoices with transaction VF04.  Can you pl. advise me the parameters that need to be considered importantly in customization.  Or even a document link would be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    BR,
    KP

    Hi,
    In VF04 you can give different billing type.
    So in that you can also add your newly created billing type to show in the billing due list.
    If you want your sales order should consider your billing document only then do the setting in VOV8.
    If you want to some thing else then please let us know clearly.
    Regards
