FB02 - Payment Block

Hello,
We have a security requirement to control the payment block field in transaction FB02. Does anyone know if any authorization objects exist for this field?

If I remember correctly, you control this via field status variants in customizing and "block reasons".
What applies there, applies to the transaction processing as well generally (the inability to remove a payment block, for example). But FB02 is a G/L journal transaction... so such "logistically dependent" events are sometimes missing such checks because they are not intended if the user gets that far...
The fastest way to check is to debug it and jump to the source code location to see your options.
Whether there is a customizable exception or an object which can be used I don't know off-hand. Perhaps your choice of transaction for this requirement is not correct....
Cheers,
Julius

Payment Block Not stopping the payment to vendor??

Hi All,
we have a problem related to Payment Block option in Vendor Invoice.
by using FB02 We have updated the payment block for MIRO accounting document against the vendor line item.
while processing the vendor payment the blocked invoice is appearing for payment and it is allowing to make payment against this invoice.
is there any setting to activate the payment block or any configuration is to be done to do so.
please guide us.
thanks & regards,
shashi kanth

Hi,
Generally we use Payment block for Automatic payments with Tcode F110.
If you would like to use payment block for normal payment, Create a new payment block or change existing payment block Tick Manual payment block option.
Path :- Out going pamyment --> OG payments global settings --> Define payment block reasons..

Payment block in F-53 even if the amount is due for payment

Hi Gurus
While we are making payment through F-53 we are getting an error message "1 item(s) was/were not activated due to online payment blocku201D Message no. F5528.
Issue:
1.     Amount is already due for payment.
2.     Payment block is needed if the amount is not due.
3.     Now we are manually remove payment block by using t code FB02.
How can we remove this payment block automatically if it is due for payment?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks and regards
Sahil

Dear Friends
We are using FB02 for removing the payment block.
Example:
We are creating a vendor invoice on 01.02.2010 and terms of payment 30 days
so on 05.03.2010 it will be due for payment (Payment is making on 05.03 2010).
Invoice is crating by one user
Payment is done by another user.
While doing F-53, user is getting this error (even the invoice is due for payment) and this user is removing the payment block using T code FB02.
Now our Clients Requirement:
If the payment is due, then the system will allow (without using FB02)
If the payment is not due , System have to Throw Error message.
Their Argument is that what is the need of Payment block. Means we are creating terms of payment for 30 days, 45 days etc....
Two terms of payment is enough.
One for immediate payment without block and another with block.
Requirement: Is it possible that payment block will be removed automatically if it due for payment and other side if the payment is not due system should block.
Thanks and regards

Payment Block Validation for User group

Dear SAP Validation Expert,
We like to allow only selected FI users to change Payment Block to ' ' (Free for Payment) in tcode: FB02, FB03 and FBL1N.
Curently we have managed to block other un-selected users from changing the Payemnt block to Free for Payment.
But our issues are Other fields also NOT able from changing/maintaining. For example in FB02, user NOT able to change Payment Block (BSEG-ZLSPR) from 'B' to ' ' (Free for Payment) which is expected but user also NOT able to maintain other field such as Payment term(BSEG-ZTERM), Baseline date (BSEG-ZFBDT), Assignment (BSEG-ZUONR) and Text Field(BSEG-SGTXT).
Below is our Validation, please advice how to improve it so that other fields can be changed too. Your swift reply is very much appreciated.
Pre-requisite:
( ( SYST-TCODE = 'FB02' ) OR
( SYST-TCODE = 'FBL1N' ) OR
( SYST-TCODE = 'FB03' ) AND
( BSEG-ZLSPR = ' ' ) AND
SYST-UNAME <> 'HIS20083'
Check:
BSEG-ZLSPR <> ' '
Message: E: You have no authorization.

Hi,
In your Validation small change has to be done.
Pre-requisite:
SYST-TCODE = 'FB02' ) OR ( SYST-TCODE = 'FBL1N' ) OR ( SYST-TCODE = 'FB03' )
Check:
SYST-UNAME 'HIS20083' AND BSEG-ZLSPR = ' '

Payment Block Field Should be Grayed

_*Scenario:*_
             If one vendor line item is blocked from the MM side, due to there own conditions, that item should not released for payment until & unless the confirmation from the same side and remove the block thru MRBR.
Issue:
             Here, the issue is, even though it is blocked from MM, thru FB02 from FI the user can remove the block indicator and clear the item.
Requirement of the Client:
            As, per the above issue the users (MM) dont want the FI user, having the authority or access to change & remove the block indicator for such line items which have been blocked from MM, and unless they remove the same thru MRBR.
Available Options:
1.     Maintaining the User Authorizations as per the responsibilities. That means providing the FB02 authorization to higher officials only.
2.     In the FB02, Graying out the Payment Block Field.
   So, Can it be possible to Gray out the Payment Block Field in the FB02 transaction..
Please give me the suggestions in this Regard
Thanks

Hi,
You have to change the configuration settings for the co. code in IMG. For that follow the following steps:
Go to IMG->Financial accounting->Account Receivable & Account Payable->Vendor Accounts->Master records->Preparations for creating Vendor Master records->Define Screenlayout per Company Code(Vendors)->Select the Co. Code row->Click Edit Field Status(on top of the screen)->Select Group, Payment transactions->Check the Payment block row field status from Req entry/Optional entry to Display entry.
Hope it answers your question.

Payment Block after MIRO posting

Dear Sirs,
We had posted MIRO entry, but now due to some reason we don't want to pay to vendor against that invoice.
We want to block that invoice for payment.
How could this function can be performed.

Hi Gupta,
Please check SPRO->Fin Acctg->AR&AP->Business Transactions->Outgoing Payments->Outgoing Payments Global->Payment Block Reasons->define Payment Block
We then ticked "not changeable" for the LIV block reason (R in our case). You may have to scroll to the right to see the field.
This meant that when the user went to the FB02 etc the block reason was locked if it was R so it couldn't be changed online, it had to be done via MRBR. Of course, we then had the situation of findingqualified staff to have access to MRBR to investigate the items before releasing them.

Vendor Invoice paid - even though Payment Block set to "A"

Hello,
I have encountered the following situation:
Late Nov 2010 - invoice created for a vendor
Early Dec 2010 - payment block on line items in accounting document set to "A" in t-code FB02
Late Dec 2010 - payment was made to the vendor, even though payment block of "A" set on the document
How can payment to a vendor be made on this document if the payment block is set to "A"? Can this be over-ridden manually by the user? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Down payment blocked for Payment"A"

Hi Friends,
I Runnig the APP. All payments get sttled exceprt Down payment. Because while creating the down payment (f-48), Systom automatically picup the Payment Block "A". But posting the transaction i try to remove the indicator"A" Manually, but i was not able to remove that indicator. So due to this reaseon system is not able to settle the downpayment transactions through APP.
Please give the possible sollutions for the ab oabove proble.
Regards,
Bramha

I guess that is the process (whether you consider is automated, manual or partially automated). Here is a link to SAP BPP on this.
http://help.sap.com/bp_bblibrary/470/Documentation/J33_BPP_02_CHEM_EN_IN.DOC
The reason why payment block A is set automatically in F-48 is (I guess) because of standard SAP code. Logically I think it should block it, because otherwise it is an open item (Vendor debit, of course) which might get picked up in APP, whereas it should not - payment is already made - cash/bank account is credited when F-48 is posted.
Considering the above analysis, what do you want to achieve by removing the block on F-48 document? If you still want to remove, I guess what is stopping you is those checkboxes against block ind. A in transaction OB27. If you check the 'Change in pmnt prop.' checkbox, you should be able to remove the payment block in the payment proposal in APP. If the checkbox 'Not changeable' is checked (ticked), you will not be able to remove the block in FB02.

How to Make MRBR to show the Customised Payment Block Indicator (MIRO) ?

Hi
Currently, from what I know of, MRBR only showing Log Payment Block as follows:
A     Automatically blocked due to existence of blocking reasons
S     Stochastically blocked
M     Manual payment block set in header - no blocking reasons
W     Automatically blocked due to entry via Web Invoice
However during the manual MIRO creation, I put in customised Payment Block G (Block due to XX) in the Payment Tab of MIRO. This G does not get shown up in MRBR.
How to make it possible in MRBR as I have configured a few customised Payment Block such as G (Block due to XX) and H (Block due to YY).
I would like MRBR to show up the exact Payment Block indicators as those in the MIRO.
Please help.
Thanks

Hi Nick.
I just found out that Payment Block Indicator shown in MIRO will appear in MRBR. The reason that it was not shown in MRBR because during MIRO creation, it was set BLANK and then user went to FB02 to change it with other customised Payment Block Value, thus when we run MRBR, it was showing blank under Payment Block column. Thus, we had to resort to LOG Payment Block which gave rise to this thread.
Having understand the importance of how FB02 changing payment block will affect MRBR, we have decided not to let user change the payment block in FB02.
SAP note: 394370 has explained everything:
"A document generated with MIRO was blocked for payment. You cancel the payment block from the vendor line item in the FI follow-up document. Transaction MRBR then displays the invoice document nevertheless. Why?
The invoice document itself cannot be changed by changes to the follow-up documents; this is not programmed. Transaction MRBR therefore continues to display the document as blocked. If this document is released from an MM point of view, the FI follow-up document remains released. Thus the damage caused is restricted to unnecessary work by the user. SAP recommends that you only use the release transactions for releasing invoices."
Thanks a lot!

Payment Block in Substitution Rule

I' created a Substitution rule to block particular vendor invoices at callup point 2 when they are entered in the system. At some point in time, I need to unblock these vendor invoices in order to make a payment. When I unblock the invoices, my substitution rule keeps blocking the invoices again. What do I need to do to only have my Substitution Rule work at the time of invoice entry?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

OK I am not sure your processes you currently use.
Do you use MIRO or FB60.
You could JUST add the tcode to your rule if you new the tcodes you used to create the vendor postings.
Please consider Vendor credits as well, do they block as standard?
Anyway I guess you have a rule that says something like if doc type is "KR" then add a payment block. What you need to do now if you know ALL of your doc types is say, if the doc type is "KR" and the tcode is "MIRO, FB60" then add payment block.
That way when you go to change the payment block in FB02 you can save it correctly.
Please assign points if this is useful.

Regarding payment Block

Dear All,
I am a technical consultant so not much knowledge about FI. I wanted to know about the vendor payment block can you please help me in terms of simple language as i am a technical so also not much aware of FI terms. Can you also give the FI tcodes where I can see it. I think its FB03 but not sure.
So can you please help me regarding this.
Also i wanted to know whether i am correct or not, when a vendor posting is blocked using FK05 the he could not do the posting(FB05) right??
Please help me regarding this also.
Thanks,
Salish

Hi,
If you want to see the payment block for vendor the go to transaction FB03 then double click on the vendor line item. Here, you will see the Block. Now if you want to remove this block then go to transaction FB02 and double click on vendor line item and remove the entry from the field.
Also, if the block is at the master data level i.e. if vendor it self is blocked then no postings will be allowed to that vendor. You are right if you want to see this block then go to FK05. You can go other way alos, through FK03 then select menu Vendor.
Here, you will see Block/Unblock option. With this option you can remove/set the block.
Please let me know if it helps!!
Regards,
