ERS & EDI

Dear Sirs,
I would like to clarify the followings -
Q1) From ERP 2005, there is a checkbox - "Settle Goods Items + Planned Delivery Cost" in transaction MRRL. Is it possible to use ERS to settle "Delivery Costs (planned & unplanned)" in MRRL ?
Q2) If receiving invoice via EDI, it can be verified & settled automatically. Can it also be done for "subsequent debits / credits" & "Delivery Costs (planned & unplanned)" ?
Tks,
KH Fong

Hi,
1.
Planned delivery costs cannot be processed using transaction MRRL. The system has been designed not to consider the
delivery costs in this transaction.
Please also note the following as well:                                         
The functionality Automatic Settlement of Planned delivery Cost is only available up to release ECC6.0. In this release (and in higher releases)  there is a new transaction MRDC developed for posting delivery costs through ers.                                                                               
Till release ECC6.0 delivery costs for invoices have to be entered              
manually.                                 
2.
I am afraid I must confirm that the functionality you are requesting         
is not included in the standard SAP system aswell.  It is not possible to settle planned delivery costs via EDI in the           
standard system. Please refer the notes 119092, 518660.      
If you would post the EDI-invoice with unplanned delivery costs, please reivew the note 1040648.
Best regards
Erika

  • Need help with output type EDI for ERS

    All,
    I want to be able to run and ERS settlement and have the invoices created sent via EDI/XML to the supplier.   I have several questions on the set up.
    1)  I have output type ERS6 which is defined as ERS EDI.  I assume because it does not start with Z* this is SAP standard, so I shouldn't have to modify any of this.
    2)  I've added my supplier to this output type. 
    3)  I assume I need to create a partner profile for this supplier?  If so can someone tell me the message type to use?
    Is there any set up I'm missing in this process?   I've executed ERS but do not get an idoc and I'm fairly certain it's because I haven't done the partner profile set-up.
    Thanks for your help.
    Sandra

    Hi,
    You don't have to modify thise setup unless you have any customized requirement.
    You are missing partner profile setup.Carry out the setup and run MRRL tcode to create the idocs
    Enter the following values using tcode WE20.
    Field                                       Value
    Message type                         GSVERF
    Partner type                             LI (vendor)
    Partner function                        LF (vendor)
    Port                                         SUBSYSTEM ( Port to your middleware)
    Output mode                            such as Collect IDocs
    Basic type                                GSVERF01
    Application                                 MR
    Output type                                ERS6 or the type you have defined

  • Message M8 321 Document contains same order item more than once

    Hi,
    i process incoming invoices by means of bapi_incominginvoice_create/park
    The source data is a file.
    The problem arises when i process the file containing the same order item several times
    in different invoices.
    when the code does:
      PERFORM importing_data_check       TABLES    itemdata
                                                   accountingdata
                                                   taxdata
                                                   withtaxdata
                                                   vendoritemsplitdata
                                                   glaccountdata
                                                   materialdata
                                         USING     headerdata
                                                   addressdata
                                                   c_rbstat_posted
                                         CHANGING  return[]
                                                   f_subrc.
    precisely in:
    *----- Prefetch PO items ---------------------------------------------*
      LOOP AT t_itemdata INTO s_itemdata.
    *----- Check double PO/Item ------------------------------------------*
        f_loop_doublecheck = f_loop_doublecheck + 1.
        LOOP AT t_itemdata FROM f_loop_doublecheck
                           WHERE po_number    = s_itemdata-po_number
                            AND  po_item      = s_itemdata-po_item

    Solution
    Fill the tables as described in the documentation for the BAPI. If you want
    to post unplanned account assignments for the invoice, fill field
    'Unplanned account assignment from invoice verification' (XUNPL) in table
    ACCOUNTINGDATA instead of field 'Serial number of account assignment'
    (SERIAL_NO).
    The question is that i do not have unplanned account assignment.
    Any hint or suggestion would be greatly appreciated
    Best regards.

    Hi!
    In your BAPI programs, you can not fill 2 or more invoice's items              
    with same reference data into the BAPI interface table ITEMDATA.                                                                               
    In your input data for BAPI with multi acc.assignment you should fill          
    only one entry in ITEMDATA for given PO and more entries in                    
    ACCOUNTINGDATA, each for a different SERIAL_NO.                                                                               
    When you use multiple account assignment in  BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE       
    then you have to fill the SERIAL_NO manually in the interface of bapi.         
    Serial_No should contain 01,02 so on depending upon number of account          
    assingnments the PO item has it. You can see the PO in transaction ME23N       
    and then fill SERIAL_NO in the BAPI.                                                                               
    Otherwise it can cause others problems in GR/IR account in the FI DOC          
    and PO history, as well as in the further invoice processes reference to       
    the PO/item (ex. MR8M, MR11, or create another new MM-invoice DOCs).           
    For more information on this please review the following attached notes:       
    972627  BAPI: Message M8 321 is displayed for no reason                        
    512282  BAPIs: Service-based invoice verification.                             
    Please check also the following information:
    After applying the note 661864 the standard system doesn't support                                       
    several invoice items reference to same PO/item and GR/item in the                                       
    BAPI process anymore. Mainly this note was developed to avoid short                                      
    dump. Now the message M8321 is issued.                                                                               
    As you create MM-invoice using on-line transactions (ex MIRO), automatic                                 
    processes (ERS, EDI) or BAPI as well, system will create or accept                                       
    the invoice item in this way:                                                                               
    Each item for a different reference data (EBELN,EBELP,LFGJA,LFBNR,LFPOS                                  
    for normal PO, as well as PACKNO and INTROW for service PO):                                                                               
    EBELN: PO's No.                                                                               
    EBELP: PO's item No.                                                                               
    LFGJA: original GR's year,                                                                               
    LFBNR: original GR's No.                                                                               
    LFPOS: original GR's item No.                                                                               
    If the PO is with indicator 'GR based-IV'='X', the reference data (LFGJA                                 
    LFBNR and LFPOS) must not be space. It means, you can't create an                                        
    invoice reference to the PO before posting of the corresponding GR DOC,                                  
    and one invoice item must be reference only to one GR DOC/item.                                                                               
    Otherwise if the PO is with 'GR based-IV' = ' ', the reference data                                      
    (LFGJA,LFBNR and LFPOS) are always space, you can create an invoice                                      
    reference to the PO before the GR DOC or without GR DOC, or one invoice                                  
    item can be reference to more GR DOC/items.                                                                               
    And the concept is valid for the PO with 'GR based-IV' or without it.

  • IBD  BASED INVOICE THROUGH EDI

    DEAR EXPERTS,
    I'M HAVING A SCENARIO WHEREIN MY CLIENT IS IMPORTING SOME GOODS AND THE GOODS ARE VERIFIED AT VENDOR'S SITE BY ONE OF OUR CLIENT'S PERSON AND THE PERSON CREATES A INBOUND DELIVERY IN SAP AND THEN THE GOODS ARE SHIPPED. BASED ON THE IBD MY CLIENT WANTS TO MAKE A PAYMENT OF 60% AND REMAINING 40% AFTER DOING THE GR. HERE THE ISSUE IS I'M NOT ABLE TO DO INVOICE POSTING BASED ON IBD OR WHEN I SELECT THE PO FOR POSTING THE INVOICE, i.e BEFORE DOING GR NEITHER THE QUANTITY OR VALUE COMES IN THE INVOICE WE NEED TO ENTER IT MANUALLY. THERE ARE 100'S OF MATERIAL IN A PO AND IT IS PRACTICALLY DIFFICULT TO ENTER THE QUANTITY AND VALUE MANUALLY. PLEASE DO SUGEST HOW WE CAN POST AN INVOICE BASED ON IBD.
    ONE OF OUR FRIENDS IN FORUM SUGGESTED TO USE EDI FOR INVOICE. CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN IN DETAIL HOW TO DO INVOICE THRU EDI BASED ON IBD.
    THANKS & REGARDS
    DOMINIC RAJAN

    Hi Satyamurthy,
                            First you define an output type like "ZEDI". Maintain the Access sequences for it.Now insert this Output type in the output determination procedure. Now assign this procedure to the billing document type(This must have been done already). Now maintain the condition record for appropriate access with medium as "6" and date"4" and the language . And now go to "WE20" and select partner type "KU" and copy an already maintained one. Here you have to be very careful when selecting a message type and process code. Normally the message type would be "INVOIC". Partner  function should be "BP"(Same as what you have maintained in the record).Get the details from the business or development team about the port(WE21-- To Maintain a port. This will be done by Technical people).And insert basic type, select option  Transfer IDoc immediately and now go to Message control and  maintain the Application as"V3" ,Message type "ZEDI(or what ever outouy type you had chosen) and process code.(This is important.You can take abap'ers help while selecting this as this is associated to a function module. I think this should help you.

  • Invoice plan and ERS

    Guys,
    What is the difference between ERS and Invoicing plan?
    Are they both same? In that case, why is the settlement done on Tcode MRRL for ERS and MRIS for Invoice plan....?
    Please clarify my doubt.
    Happy holidays,
    Nureya

    Hi ,
    Please go through this below points difference between invoice plan (MRIS) and ERS (MRRL)  in invoice verification process.
    Use of Invoice plan in SAP MM ( Logisitic Invoice Verification )
    Through the use of Invoicing Plan for leasing agreements and such like, you aims to considerably reduce the manual data entry effort in the purchasing and invoice verification (A/P) department. 
    The invoicing plan enables you to schedule the desired dates for the creation of invoices relating to the planned procurement of materials or services independently of the actual receipt of the goods or actual performance of the services. It lists the dates on which you wish to create and then pay the invoices. 
    You can have the system create the invoices automatically on the basis of the data in the purchase order, thereby triggering payment of the vendor. It is also possible to enter the invoice for an invoicing plan manually. It is recommended that the invoice shall be created via Logistics Invoice Verification ---> Automatic Settlement --->Invoicing Plan Settlement. This 
    transaction can also run in the background. 
    Following are necessary customizings and preconditions for using the Invoicing Plan functionality in SAP - 
    1) You must maintain the settings in Customizing for purchasing (for example, invoicing plan type, date categories, date descriptions, and date sequence proposals). The related path is IMG ---> Material Management ---> Purchasing ---> Purchase Order ---> Invoicing Plan ...... 
    2) The Purchasing document with FO Document Type (Framework Order) must be used. This document type requires that a validity period be entered in the PO header. This specification is adopted in the invoicing plan, provided that this has been predefined in Customizing for the relevant invoicing plan type. 
    3) The purchase order item must have an account assignment. 
    4) The Logistics Invoice Verification must be used. 
    5) The vendor must have agreed to use the automatic invoice creation facility (since we will use automatic settlement to create the invoice). In this case, the 'AutoEvalGRSetmtDel.' indicator must be flagged in the vendor master record. 
    Furthermore, once Purchase Order is created with order type FO, ensure that the indicators for GR/IR control have been set correctly on the item detail screen. The Goods Receipt indicator may only be set in combination with the Goods Receipt Non-Valuated indicator. The Invoice indicator must be set. For the automatic creation of invoices, the ERS (Evaluated Receipt Settlement) indicator must be also set. A further prerequisite for automatic settlement is that a tax code must be entered in the purchase order. 
    Please go throuth this SAP help linkl
    [Help.SAP.COM|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/75/ee0d3355c811d189900000e8322d00/content.htm]

    Prerequistic settings for ERS:
    1. Vendor master purchasing data  ( Flagged as GR-Based Inv Verification: Indicator specifying that provision has been made for goods-receipt-based invoice verification for a purchase order item or invoice item.
    Auto Eval GR Settlement Delivery: specifies that evaluated receipt settlement or the automatic generation of the invoices are allowed in relation to materials supplied or services performed
    Auto Eval GR Settlement Return: Specifies that automatic evaluated receipt settlement of return items is allowed.
    2. Check in Info record to Ensure that No ERS indicator is not checked in the info record for the vendor, Material + Vendor + Plant + Purchase organization.
    3. In PO ( Tax code maintain and Ticked GR based IV and ERS indicator )
    4. Settled the invoice using MRRL
    Difference between ERS and Invoice plan are :
    " ERS is the automatic invoice payment settlement to our supplier like EDI payment.
    Once we received the GR quantity system automatically settled the payment using ERS t.code MRRL.
    " There are two types of invoice plan ( Partial and Periodic invoice plan ) - is used to settled the Rental , period based payment etc using MRIS.

  • Mass Maintenance of EDI Partner Profiles

    Hello SDN folks,
      my customer is a large multinational - and they are beginning to run into difficulties in the management of their EDI partner profiles. The problem is that there are thousands of external parties that must be communicated to via IDOC / the outbound EDI processing technique. Very many of these partner profiles are very similar / identical to each other. My customer needs to have seperate profiles though so that the messages can be fully traced from point of sending to destination and so that they can easily start and stop communications for a specific partner if required.
    The question I have is - are there any good tools for the mass maintenance of EDI profiles for customers that are in our situation? It occurs to me that this must be a common problem for many large organisations. It would be convenient to be able to mass maintain shared EDI partner profiles (profiles that share common attributes). There does not appear to be any solution provided in standard SAP (except for some ECATT utility for mass creation - that cannot be used in production). Does anyone know of a SAP standard solution - or even a third party solution for this problem?
    Kind Regards,
    Julian Phillips

    Hi Julian
    I also ran into this issue. Check function group EDI6, there are some function modules your ABAP'ers might be able to leverage to do the mass maintenance. The other option is use of BDC sessions.
    Im trying to find something similar to mass create logical systems in tcode SALE which is a prereq if you plan on mass loading LS's in WE20.
    Good luck....

  • ERS tax code

    I am getting a error while creating a PO checked with ERS. The error "In case of evaluated receipt settlement, please enter tax code". I am creating these PO automatically from ME59N. Also I wont have Info Records for these Vendors so the tax code wont come. Can we default tax code(I0) in the PO somehow?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Amit,
    I think it is possible to default tax code in the PO without maintaining Info record.
    Please read and try the following:
    Within the framework of the price determination process, it is possible to have the tax code determined automatically via the conditions.
    For the purposes of automatic tax code determination, tax indicators derived from the material master record, Customizing, or the purchasing document are used. The system determines the tax code on the basis of the combination of these tax indicators.
    To assign a tax code to a combination of tax indicators, you must maintain master conditions in Purchasing (menu options "Master data -> Taxes").
    There are tax indicators at the levels "plant", "account assignment category" and "material".
    In addition, there are two tax indicators that are derived from the purchasing document:
    Country of origin and country of destination differ
    Region of origin and region of destination differ
    The assignments "tax indicator -> plant" and "tax indicator -> account assignment category" must be made in Customizing.
    Automatic tax code determination can be useful, for example, if different tax rates apply depending on whether a material is placed in stock or is consumed immediately following its procurement.
    path: SPRO - IMG - MM - Purchasing - Taxes.
    You need to assign access sequence (0003) to the Tax condition type (for eg. NAVS).
    also read the documentation in the followinf link.

  • Automatic PO creation through EDI

    Hi experts,
    Please clarify me on the setup of creating PO's thru EDI in Purchasing automatically once PR is created in the system.
    My client is more or less a trading company. They buy from vendor & sell to their customer, like third party order process.
    So they create Sales Order & then PReq is created through ME57 & then they create PO through ME59.
    They want to create PO's automatically thru EDI as this can speed up the process so as the vendor is also looking for creating SO in their BaaN system automatically.
    I have configured the EDI setup for creating PO manually, meaning when I create manual PO the idoc xml file is ready for transfer.
    But I am looking for the steps so that once they create the PReq, EDI should automatically create PO in SAP & the idoc should be ready for transfer.
    Please suggest if this can be done thru any BAPI or BDC programs.
    Thanks in advance !
    Priyadarshini

    Hi Krishna,
    This is for automatically creating normal PO thru PReq. Since I have setup the EDI configs for creating PO thru manual process  thru Me21N then idoc gets generated.
    But my client is looking for the idocs to be generated automatically once the PReq are created thru Me57.
    is there a way?

  • EDI for creation of Sales Order and sending copy of Invoice

    Hello Experts,
    I am working on EDI. We have a scenario, where the purchase order created in the 3rd party system has to be converted into a sales order in our SAP system.
    Then, the regular flow would follow uptil delivery and creation of invoice in SAP.
    We have to send a copy of this Invoice back to the 3rd party system.
    So, in effect, we would have EDI at two points, while capturing the PO from the 3rd party and another when sending a copy of the Invoice back to the 3rd party.
    Please advise on how to go about implementing EDI in the above mentioned scenarios.
    Regards,

    hello abaper's,

    With Regards
    MurugeshRajeev

    Hello,
            First of all, we'll need to identify as to what we want to do with the PO Data. For example, If we want to Create Sales Order, there is already a Posting Program available with the Name IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS (FM). This is useful for Creating a Sales Order automatically whenever a PO IDoc is received.
    Here is the Information for processing Standard IDoc.
    1. WE30 - ORDERS05 - IDoc  Type
    2. WE31 - Segment Definition for the IDoc Type
    3. WE81 - Logical Message Types (ORDERS)
    4. WE82 - Assigning the Message Type to IDoc Type
    5. WE42 - Define Process Code
    6. BD51 - If you want to Code a Custom Function Module,
                  then after creating it, you need to register the same
                  Function Module in this Transaction Code.
    7. WE57 - Assign Message Type / IDoc Type / FM group.
    8. WE20 - Partner Profiles
    9. WE21 - Port Definitions
    Hope this information was helpful.

  • Transformation issue with EDI 841 xsd generated by document editor

    Hi,
    I was trying to create a B2B Outbound interface with Doc Standard as EDI X12. When our custom payload for item is being mapped to the xsd of doc type 841 (generated using standard ecs with Oracle Doc Editor), the xengine is behaving a little weird. It's generating a file in the output directory for sure, but it's not having all the data I mapped. For Example, I wanted to have a datafile as below:

    AMT~LI~0
    HL~1~~I~0

    The problem is resolved after re-upload of ecs and xsd. There was a version mismatch and keeping validation off was generating half cooked file. Thanks for reading.

  • Problem with CRLF in a EDI file....

    Hello,
    I receive from my client a EDI file with a charcater in the end of the file, for this, the map generate the error Length limit exceeded - no SEG. delim. found!!!, but if I set "on" in the ingnoreCRLF option on the BICMD of Seebubrger, the map works correctly, I try too with the instruction setIgnoreCRLF("on") in the last segment of the EDI and this works too fine.
    But when I deploy the mappings_user.sda with this changes to XI and I receive the file in the BIC Module, the map doesn´t work, generate the same error to the character on the file.
    Can comebody help me please with an idea about this problem??.
    Greetings,
    Hervey

    Check the case of the file names such as map.jhm File names are not case sensitive when in a jar file.

  • How can I create unique partnerships to deal with like EDI messages?

    I have an EDI to Application partnership setup currently that deals with translating MEDRUC type EDIFACT messages to a mainframe format. The setup is
    Sender = PARTNERA,
    Receiver = PARTNERB
    DocType = MEDRUC.
    In the Input EDI tab the
    Sender Qualifier ID = ZZ:PARTNERA
    Receiver Qualifier ID = ZZ:PARTNERB
    Standard = EDIFACT
    Version = D
    Release Number = 97B.
    Use UNG to locate partnerships = No
    EDIFACT messages contain all this information in their UNB and UNH segments which is where SunONE IS B2B looks to then match against the relevant partnership. My problem is this does not go to enough granularity for me to distinguish uniqueness for the second partnership I need to create.
    The problem is the "Association assigned code" field in the UNH for EDIFACT messages is not catered for anywhere in the partnership details area. This means then that whilst my existing partnership deals with Simplified Billing Claim MEDRUC's which is Association assigned code = SBC20, I can't create an EDI to Application partnership for PARTNERA and PARTNER B to cater for Two Way Gap Claiming MEDRUC's which are Association assigned code = TWC10, ie the two messages are D97B MEDRUC type messages only distinguished from each other by this Association assigned code.
    Any ideas how can I then create a unique EDI to Application partnership for this TWC10 MEDRUC message?
    What I am thinking I will have to do is make this second partnership Application to Application and create a custom service to wrap the MEDRUC message with a HREC/TREC and use the parameters in the HREC to dictate the DocType rather than use the UNB/UNH segments in the MEDRUC?

    Hmmm. It looks like way back when the decision was made on how specific the keys had to be, they didn't get quite specific enough for your case. I'm not super experienced with EDIFACT but I'll throw out some suggestions based on my HREC and X12 knowledge.
    A. Could you handle both instnaces through the same partnership, but alter the map to create unique outputs based on the two different types? At least of the cards would need to be handled through Route, but you could have that picked up by a simple Outprep / Gateway Service list that put the data where you wanted it.
    B. Before Parse, run a custom service that is capable of inspecting for which type of data it is, then modify one of the key fields in place to find the Second partnership. Really getting adventurous, maybe you could alter keys in the UNG to make the distinction. This assumes that you don't have both types of documents in the same interchange.
    C. Your idea may be workable. Can you give some more detail on the make-up of the Service list and the destination/processing of the two differnt types of MEDRUC?
    Thanks.
