Please help
Krishna
SPRO-MM-invoice verification-incoming invoice-Set Check for Duplicate Invoices
In this step, you can configure for each company code if the system is to check for duplicate invoices when you enter invoices.
This check should prevent incoming invoices being accidentally entered and paid more than once.
You can choose whether to activate or deactivate the check criteria of company code, reference document number and invoice date for each company code. The more criteria that you activate, the lower the probability of the system finding a duplicate invoice. The Accounting documents are checked first, followed by documents from Logistics Invoice Verification (only incorrect invoices or those entered for verification in the background).
When checking duplicate invoices, the system compares the following attributes in the standard system:
Vendor
Currency Company code
Gross invoice amount Reference document number
1. Invoice date If the system finds an invoice that matches all
attributes, the system
- displays a customizable message.
- If you are entering credit memos, subsequent debits, or subsequent
- credits, the system does not check for duplicate invoices.
- The exception is the Argentina country version, where the system
checks
- for duplicate invoices and credit memos.
- If a previously processed document is later cancelled and then
entered
- again, no message is displayed.
Requirements
The system only checks for duplicate invoices in Materials Management
if you specify a reference document number when entering the invoice.
In Customizing (IMG) for Invoice Verification, you can specify that the
system check the following attributes
Reference document number
Invoice date
Company code
Because there are fewer attributes to check, it is more likely that the system will find a duplicate invoice.
Standard settings
All check criteria are activated in the standard system.
Example
The following document has been entered and posted:
Reference document number: 333
Invoice date: 28.04.00
Gross invoice amount: 100,00
Currency: EUR
Vendor: Wolf
Company code: Hamburg
The settings for checks for duplicate invoices in Customizing have
been maintained as follows:
The field reference document number and company code are not selected.
This means that these attributes will not be checked. Now enter the
following invoice:
Reference document number: 334
Invoice date: 28.04.00
Gross invoice amount: 100,00
Currency: EUR
Vendor: Wolf
Company code: Berlin
Result
By entering the reference document number and entering an invoice,it is possible to check for duplicate invoices.
The reference document number and the company code contain different data than the invoice you entered. These attributes are not checked because you have deselected them in Customizing.
All other attributes are equal. The system displays a message telling you that a duplicate invoice has been found.
If, for example, you had selected the reference document number in Customizing, the system would check this and recognize that this invoice is different to the previously entered invoice. The system would not then display a message.

Duplicate Invoice Verification
Hi,
I've got a problem with setting he Duplicate Invoice check. Have perform the following
1. Goto Tcode OMRDC and tick the 'Check Refernce' check-box
2. Goto Vendor Master and tick the ''Chk double inv' check-box
3. Set the Messge Control for Message F5 117 to E for both online and batch input
However, when i create invoices via F-43, I am still able to post invoices with the same ref number, doc date, vendor, company code, currency and amount.
Am I missing a config somewhere? Appreciate your advce. Thank you.Hi,
Please find below the steps for checking duplicate invoice from FI.
1) Check "Chk Double inv" in vendor master-> company code view-> payment transactions
2) OBA5, enable message # 117 in F5 Application area as "E" as per the requirement (options available are, online, batch input and standard)
Kindly note following points....
1) It is better to check Reference number as mandatory field in OBA7
2) If you have activated chk double inv in the vendor master, it will not check for the duplication with earlier documents which have created before such activation. It means, this check will happen only the against the documents posted after activation
Hope this answers your query.
Best Regards,
Madhu

Duplicate invoices verification not working in FI
Hi all,
We experienced the problem with duplicate invoices posting check in FI (not logistics).
The indicator Chk double inv. (LFB1-REPRF) is checked in Vendor master data. However, we are still able to post several documents with these fields identical: BUKRS, LIFNR, WAERS, XBLNR, WRBTR, BLDAT in FB01 or FB60.
The message F5 117 should appear but it does not - when I check OBA5 for area F5 the message is not here at all.
What could be the problem?
ECC 6 EHP 6 SAPKH60605
thanks to all
JanHi
Go to transaction OBMSG and add the message 117 in application area F5 as below:-
Application Area - F5
Message - 117
Allowed - EWS
Standard - W
Switch Off-Select the check box.
Now go to transaction OBA5 and application area F5, maintain an entry as below:-
Message - 117
Online -E (Error)
Batch - E (Error)

Duplicate invoice check on MIRO/Logistics invoice verification.
Hi SAP Gurus,
I am stuck with a small issue here. I am trying to post an invoice through FB60 with same vendor, same comp code, same GL and same reference and I am aware there are two settings to do the duplicate invoice check one is through vendor master (payment transaction screen) and the other is OMRDC transaction where we check certain fields to validate invoices based upon same values. now when I take a vendor without that vendor master config for duplicate invoice check and checking all the fields in OMRDC transaction the system doesn't validate or throw any error while posting FB60 with all the same values. so is there any other configuration available apart from these two configuration settings?
My requirement is the configuration already exists which checks duplicate invoice based upon same invoice date for all the vendors of a company code and I need to change the configuration setting back where it ignores checking invoice date. it doesn't show any kind of error in my test whether I make change in OMRDC transaction or not.

Verification of duplicate invoice
Dear friends,
Pl help me out through following scenario.
System is allowing to make GR (partial receipt of material) with same Delivery Challan against same PO Multiple no of times.
The requirement is that
a) System should block the second GR against same Delivery Challan
OR
b) When we make MIRO against Dilevery challan System should Obstruct.
Thanks in advance
PrabhashHi Prabhash,
Did you tried or not? ( I have given a path in my first mail)
If you configure /set that indicator, then you can stop entering invoice duble time (i mean system won't allow you to enter Invoice for the PO) based on 3 criteria.
Flag the indicator for this combination:
Co.Code: Check Co.Code Check Reference Check Invoice Date
Or
If you want to check for duble /duplicate invoice, only for the perticular vendor:
then
you have to set the Flag/indicator for Check duble Invoice (which is in payment data in the screen of Payment transactions of Company code data of Vendor master, this is specific to vendor)
Try the above, i think your query may be solved.
but my problem is related to Delivery Challan(DC).
I want to restrict the invoice if GR is made multiple no of times against same DC.
i.e.
When GR is made, the user enters the DC no for GR, then against same DC no
GR is again made for same purchase order of balance quantity or part of balance quantity.
Then when miro is done with reference to Delivery note, system diaplays entire material against all DC, this need to be avoided.
for the above query (between line)
Answer: Yes, certainly system will displays all the GR entries in MIRO(i mean with GR with same DC no.). Why because you have used the same DC no for receiving the Remaining quantity of goods thru MIGO.
To avoid this, and if you don't like to enter all the entries in MIRO, then you have to use different Delivery Challan Numbers (Use seperate DC no. each time when you enter GR)
Then defnetly system won't display all, but it will display only the goods delivered thru the respective DC no. at the time of MIRO.
Hope, it may give clear understanding for query,
reward, if it solves,
Regards,
Srinu.K

A/P Invoice Entry - Duplicate Invoice Error vs. Warning Message Control
In configuration, the duplicate invoice message has been defined as an error instead of a warning. This affects all invoice entry dialog transactions. Is there a method or approach to change only transaction F-63 Park Document so the message is a warning intead of an error? Thxs.
Hi
we have to activate certain setting in MM.
Step - 1
SPRO - MM - Logistic Invoice Verification - Incoming Invoice - Set Check for Duplicate Invoices - Activate Check box for reference field.
Step - 2
In Vendor Master XK02/FK02 goto Payment Transaction & click on check box - Check double Inv
Step - 3
There is also a Std Report for checking the invoices for which same reference feild was given

How to stop Invoice Verification for Dulicate Invoice in MIRO.
Dear friends,
In configuration related to duplicate invoice in MIRO, we have selected "Reference Doc. Number". Also in Vendor Master we have ticked the "Check Duplicate Invoice".
Inspite of this system is giving only warning message at the time of MIRO against Duplicate Invoice. I want to convert it as error message.
How to do this?
Regards
SivaMessage number M8 108
The category of this message can be changed in Customizing for Invoice
Verification.
IMG > MM > LIV > Define Attributes of System Messages
This means that you can receive a message as an error
message even though it is defined as a warning message in the standard
system. -
Duplicate Invoice Check -Vendor
Hi everyone,
I found out that I posted an invoice(FB60) for the same vendor with same, amount, reference,invoice date,same company code.one invoice was posted on 3rd march and other was posted on 25th march,I checked in the vendor master record indicator" chk double inv" is checked.Why system didn't give any error or warning message.Please guide.
Regards
ShaunHi,
Good Day,
Please follow the below steps ( taken from another post and its working fine for me)
The following fields must be identical for Duplicate invoice check
Company code (BUKRS)
Vendor number (LIFNR)
Currency (WAERS)
Reference number (XBLNR)
Amount in document currency (WRBTR)
Document date (BLDAT)
If the document is having any one of the above filed different then the
system does not consider it as a duplicate invoice.
and also It will check duplicate invoice check in vendor master data
and in posting key is there check box selected for sales related
The setting you making in OMRDC i.e Materials management->Logistics
Invoice Verification->Incoming Invoice ->Set Check for Duplicate
Invoices is only valid for MM and not FI invoices posted via FB60/FB65.
You should check the F1 help on field "Chk double inv." (LFB1-REPRF)
in the relevant vendor master record (transaction FK03).
Please also check, that message F5 117 has been set correctly in the
IMG using this path:
Financial Accounting -> Financial Accounting Global Settings ->
Document -> Default Values for Document Processing -> Change Message
Control for Document Control For Document Processing
Finally & mainly, go to the relevant posting key is defined as sales
related in transaction OB41. You have to flag this field if the
duplicate invoice check should work.

Vendor invoice and logistic invoice verification ?
Good morning Guru,
What is the difference between "vendor invoice" in accounting module and "logistic invoice verification" in MM module ?
I know logistic invoice verification to validate between po, gr and invoice, but what vendor invoice for ?
Thank'sHi
Accounting-wise both has the same result as in both the scenarios you can debit expense and credit vendor. The advantage of Logistics Invoice Verification over Vendor Invoice is, in Logistics Invoice verification, we have three way matching of documents ie PO,GR and Invoice. So if there is any mismatch between these, the invoice will get blocked for payment. Also it checks for accuracy between PO and invoice and GR and invoice, so that the expenses are accounted accurately and price diff account also effected appropriately.
In Vendor invoice booking, it is just like your normal journal entry and so it has not got that much authenticity over the correctness of transactions. In vendor invoice booking, there is every possibility of duplicate booking of invoice, whereas in LIV, the invoice will get blocked for payment.
Hope it is clear.

Hello Sap Guys!
Is there some configuration in SAP that carries through the verification of the Vendor of the PO and the Vendor of the invoice (MIRO). At the moment of emission of MIRO?
Thanks,
GustavoHi Gustavo,
Yes, there is a configuration is required to verify the Invoices from Vendor is mentioned in below:
Use the path:
IMG Display--> MM --> Logistic Invoice Verification --> Incoming Invoice -->
Set Check for Duplicate Invoice (Screen appears as mentioned in below combination, you need to flag the checkboxes):
Co.Code: Check Co.Code Check Reference Check Invoice Date
then
you can stop the invoice entering double time.
Or
If you want to check for duble /duplicate invoice, only for the perticular vendor:
then
you have to set the flag/indicator for Check duble Invoice (which is in payment data in the screen of Payment transactions of Company code data of Vendor master, this is specific to vendor)
hope it will clarify your query,
reward, if it solves,

Hi all,
I have the following situation: an invoice issued in USA was posted with FB60 in SAP, using reference field for the invoice number.
A correction was made to this invoice and the vendor send it back with the same invoice number but the corrected amount.
When it is posted in SAP the duplication warning is not coming because it has the same reference number but a different amount.
What setup needs to be done in SAP so that invoices posted in FI with FB60 give an error message when invoices with the same reference are posted. Meaning, reference field to be considered as the unique field to be considered for duplicated invoices.
Many thanks,
MiroslavHi

Kindly tell me how can i find the duplicate invoices posted against a single GR if any. which are the tables to be used or is there any standard transaction.
Dear,
As per my view two invoice is not posted against same bill number.
If you want to search it, Please use MIR6 t-code.
Enter MIR6 t-code.
Enter bill number in field of reference.
Then click on Invoice Verification online >> Posted.
Held/Parked >> Parked as saved and parked as complete.
Then click on execute button .

Duplicate Invoices getting posted in MIRO
Dear Expert,
My user has raised an issue that while posting a MIRO transaction duplicate documents are getting generated with the same details(amt, invoice ref etc.) in a span of 30 seconds giving two document numbers.
I have asked the user to reverse one of the open items using t code MR8M to resolve the issue for the time being.
But the user is asking me why duplicate invoices are getting posted and needs a permanent solution to the issue.
Did anybody faced a similar issue previously. Kindly suggest me on this.
Regards,
SudishHi,
Please check the configuration in belowpath:-
IMG>Materials Management>Logistics Invoice Verification>Incoming Invoice>Set Check for Duplicate Invoices
Moreever, in vendor master, you need to maintain the double invoice check tick in the company code data.
You can also configure the extended rules to check double invoice in BTE 00001110 in FIBF transaction. Search SDN for more details on it. (It has been answered several times.)

Duplicate invoice check in park invoice
hello gurus
what are the settings for duplicate invoice check at the time of invoice parking.
Thanks
VenkatHI Venkat,
Let me explain how the check for duplicate invoices work in FI:
In FI,when checking for duplicated invoices,the system compares the following
Note 305201 clarifies this in a more detail.
The following fields must be identical for Duplicate invoice check
Company code (BUKRS)
Vendor number (LIFNR)
Currency (WAERS)
Reference number (XBLNR)
Amount in document currency (WRBTR)
Document date (BLDAT)
If the document is having any one of the above filed different then the system does not consider it as a duplicate invoice.
and also It will check duplicate invoice check in vendor master data and in posting key is there check box selected for sales related
The setting you making in OMRDC i.e Materials management->Logistics Invoice Verification->Incoming Invoice ->Set Check for Duplicate Invoices is only valid for MM and not FI invoices posted via FB60/FB65.
You should check the F1 help on field "Chk double inv." (LFB1-REPRF) in the relevant vendor master record (transaction FK03).
Please also check, that message F5 117 has been set correctly in the IMG using this path:
Financial Accounting -> Financial Accounting Global Settings -> Document -> Default Values for Document Processing -> Change Message Control for Document Control For Document Processing
Finally & mainly, go to the relevant posting key is defined as sales related in transaction OB41. You have to flag this field if the duplicate invoice check should work.
Please assign points if it useful.

Invoice verification config???
hii
What are the significance of below configuration in invoice verififcation ??
1.materials management>Logisti Inv Verifcation>
do the settings for Invoice blocks??,
Tolerances, then Incoming invoices..???,
Indicator stochastic Block???
2. Set check for duplicate invoice ??
Explain me one by one with some example .
ThanksHi,
1.Logistics Invoice Verification
In the Implementation Guide for Logistics Invoice Verification, you make the system settings that are required for the following areas:
a) Processing invoice receipts
b) Connection to Financial Accounting
Note:- You must process the sections for document types and number ranges in the Incoming Invoice unit.
2.Invoice Block
In the "Invoice Block" unit, you can configure the settings for blocking invoices.
This includes the following functions:
Determine Payment Block
Set Tolerance Limits
Item Amount Check
Stochastic Block
3.Set Tolerance Limits
Specify the tolerance limits for each tolerance key for each company code.
When processing an invoice, the R/3 System checks each item for variances between the invoice and the purchase order or goods receipt. The different types of variances are defined in tolerance keys.
Variances are allowed within predefined tolerance limits. If a variance exceeds a tolerance limit, however, the system issues a message informing the user. If an upper limit (except with BD and VP) is exceeded, the invoice is blocked for payment when you post it. You must then release the invoice in a separate step. If the tolerance limit for BD is breached, the system cannot post the invoice.
Note that if you set all limits for a tolerance key to Do not check, the system does not check that tolerance limit. Therefore any variance would be accepted. This does not make sense particularly in the case of the tolerance key Form small differences automatically.
4.Stochastic Block
Configure the system settings for the stochastic block.
Activate: This specifies the company codes in which the stochastic block is used.
Set: This specifies the degree of probability that an invoice is stochastically blocked.
5.Duplicate invoices
Invoice date If the system finds an invoice that matches all attributes, the system
displays a customizable message.
If you are entering credit memos, subsequent debits, or subsequent
credits, the system does not check for duplicate invoices.
The exception is the Argentina country version, where the system checks
for duplicate invoices and credit memos.
If a previously processed document is later cancelled and then entered
again, no message is displayed.
