Goods return issue

Dear Experts,
One of our existing client engineering relvant industry is using SAP B1 PL_18 & facing a problem in purchase module. Scenario is the goods received through grpo found defective on quality check and the same is returned to the vendor through goods return. When the returned goods comes back then there is no option avaliable in standard SAP to receive the returned goods from goods return form.
I s there any provision from goods return to receive the goods in standard SAP other than customization. If any one knows the solution or faced this kind of issue please share your knowledge.

Mr.Sachin,
Thanks for you suggestion but still in 8.8 version there is no provision to re-open the grpo once the good return is passed i think u have not checked properly.
According to SAP PLC (Product Life Cycle) goods return is the last stage of purchase cycle there after there is no provision to re-open its corresponding Po or Grpo gets closed.

Status of Goods Return

Hi
How exactly is the status of a Goods return controlled / automatically set by B1?
I.e.: I created a new one based on a GRPO and it has been closed immediately after saving it, automagically. Actually, theses Goods are going back and they will return (reworked) and I planned to do a GRPO then based on the Goods return issued now. However, this will not be possible anymore.
When does B1 close / leave open a Goods Return?
How is a Goods Return usually 'balanced'/closed?
Thanks
Franz

Paul,
This seems not to be entirely correct.
I have several Goods Return that have an open status. This is true for all the documents that are not based on an GRPO or alike, for instance. In these cases when the reworked goods return a GRPO can be based on the Goods Return. However, this seems only to be possible if the Goods Return is not based on any other document.
In my case, the flow of the ggods can not completly followed because B1 automatically closes Goods Retuns that are based on
an other document, i.e. a GRPO.
What I would like to do to completely be able to follow the goods flow in B1:
Purchase Order -> GRPO -> Goods Return -> GRPO
But only these are possible:
Purchase Order -> GRPO -> Goods Return
or:
Goods Return -> GRPO

Issue Price Difference Acct. in JE of goods return

Dear all,
There is issue in price difference account(Defined as Material Purchase Gain A/c in warehouse)
in good return journal entry,
Eloborating problem : User booking subcontracting grpo for qty 1470.024 with price also for 1470.024,
JE for GRPO is Sub Contracting Charges A/c Dr to Sub Contracting Charges Clearing A/c Cr.
ie.,
Sub Contracting Charges a/c Dr -11,92,189.46
Sub Contracting Charges Clearing A/c Cr -11,92,189.46
Now they partially do good return for qty 811 with price 1470.024,
JE for Goods return is
Material Purchase Gains A/c Dr -11,78,900.46
Sub Contracting Charges a/c Dr -13,289
Sub Contracting Charges Clearing A/c Cr -11,92,189.46
Actually sub contracting charges a/c should have been debited to 11,92,189.46,
Why it is hitting Material purchase gains a/c ?
Pl clarify it.

Hai!
As per my understanding,
Stock Acc always in Asset Draw, Price Diff Acc in Expense Draw.
For Example..
1.I am purchasing a item of 10 qty each 1 rupee through GRPO.
2.It will post a JE like stock acc INR 10 Debit and GRNI Acc 10 Credit.
3.After that i have transfered my 5 qty to some other warehouse.
4.I am booking a AP invoice with that GRPO as base, now i have changed my price to 2 rupee.
5.It will post a JE like stock acc INR 5(51 which like in warehouse) debit, GRNI Acc INR 10 debit, price Diff Acc INR 5 Debit (51 go as expence) and Vendor INR 20 Credit.

Automatic goods return after Goods Issue

Hi,
I have the following scenario:
The client sells finnished materials using pump-over process. The material is attached to the pump-over packaging in a sales/prod BOM. The pump-over packaging is followed with a Batch number.
When posting the goods issue an automatic goods return has to be performed on the pump-over packaging to re-integrate the packaging available for new production.
Does anybody has any idea how to make it without developpment? I tried with a sheduling item categ with mat. movement 653 (Returns unrestricted use) for the pump-over, but I end up with *2 qty in stock...
Thanks in advance!

Meera,
Once an Invoice is Paid, the Invoice document is marked as Closed by SAP. Nothing further can be done about that invoice.
An Item AP Credit memo actually Credits your Vendors Account and Debits Inventory.
If you do a Goods Return, the transaction would post as Credit to Allocation Account (depends on your G/L setup) and Debit Inventory. You will then need to create another A/P Service credit memo document and get credit from the Vendor.
Therefore an Item AP Credit Memo would be the way to go in this scenario

Goods Return posting issue

Sir,
I would like to clarify a doubt in SAP Business One.While we enter Good return document and AP Credit Memo document, the account to which the posting usually goes is the account called "Purchase Returns" account, according to the mapping that we did while creating the company. But i would like to know whether there is any solution that while we enter Good return, the posting should be done to "Purchase account" where as while we enter AP Credit Memo, the posting should go to "Purchase Returns Account".
Thanks in Advance,
Nishi Raj P

Hi
Please check the "Cost of Goods Sold account" in General --> Setup --> Financials --> G/L Account Determination --> Inventory TAB.....And check
If the Item Inventory GL is Set by Item Group then change the Cost of Goods Sold account in Item Groups...........

Hi Experts,
I am facing problem while creating Free Goods Return Order.
In return process, I want to create a return order with free goods quantity,it is not coming in the line item.

I have done below configuration:
1 - Number Range of free Goods
2 - Maintain Condition Table For Free Goods
3 - Maintain Access Sequence For Free Goods
4 - Condition Type For Free Goods
5 - Pricing Procedures for free Goods
6 - Active Free Good Determination
7 - Determination of Item Category for free good Item and for return purpose i have done
Sales Doc.Type - RE + Item Usage- Blank + Item category -REN + Higher level of Item category- RENN
Pls guide me
Thanks & Regards,
Jyoti Shukla

Hi,

I have done below configuration:
1- Do Item category assignment for free goods return process in tcode VA01
Sales Doc type –RE+ Item Category Grp- NORM + Item Usage- FREE + Higher level Item category –REN+ Item category –RENN
2- Do Copy Control for return free goods purpose in tcode VTAF
Header : RE(Tgt)+F2(Source)
Item : REN+RENN(Copy requirements-303+Data T-153+Data T-104+Data T-004)
Schedule : Blank
3 - Now create return order with reference of billing doc., take order type RE so now will show free goods quantity in the line item.

AP Credit Memo and Good return, creates differences between TB and Stock Audit Report

Hello Experts,
Did any one has ever faced an issue, whereby AP Credit Memo and Good Return creates discrepancy between journal entry and the stock audit report?
Here is the scenario:
AP Credit Memo
Description
Quantity
Unit Price
Total
Item A
                30
            3,400
   102,000
Journal Entry :
Debit
Business Partner
     105,000
        Credit
                      Stock
     105,000
Inventory Audit Report
Description
Quantity
Cost
Transaction Amount
Item A
                        30
                     3,500
                                                105,000
Journal Entry :
Debit
Business Partner
     105,000
        Credit
                      Stock
        105,000
The difference is actually due to the moving average, but the strange part is why the difference is not posted in the journal entry, in the Price different account?
This makes the stock account amount to be different from the Trial Balance and the Stock Audit Report.
And this is applied also on the Good Return transaction.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Best Regards
Cedric Kayitare

Hi Cedric,
Price & Item cost are different.
while making goods return , Direct AP Credit Note, Sales Delivery, Direct AR Invoice, stock is going outside.
In these transactions Journal entry will happen for Item cost and not Item sales or Purchase price.
Please enable item cost field in line level and check whether above formulae is matching with Item, cost field.
Then what is the importance of price in these documents??
Price is the agreed selling or purchase price for trading with Customer and supplier.
In your example
You are returning back material worth 105000(as per moving average price), but supplier is supposed to give only you 102,000.
Hope you understand
Thanks

Goods Return can't copy to AP Credit Memo

Hi,
We had customer who is operating in computer gadget. The store keeper is returning stock to supplier by issuing Goods Return with old unit price. When suppliers issues AP credit memo to the customer, the unit price differs. Customer is copying Goods Return to AP credit memo and put in new price but when add AP credit memo, the following error message appears:
"Amount to credit is greater than credit balance"
Customer is curious why system allows to add AP Invoice if unit price differs from GRPO but disallow to add AP credit memo if unit price differs from Goods Return.
Customer is now running on 2005A PL23 and we are tested in PL34. Same result.
Any idea how to resolve?
Regards
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
Please also make sure that the Expense and Stock account is defined under Administration -> Setup -> Financials -> G/L account Determination ->
Purchasing tab -> Variance Account (Expense and Stock account).
Hope it is helpful!

Goods Receipt Against A Goods Return - Not Working

Hi,
i have been trying to work through the Purchase goods return process for a client and am having issues with the flow.
This is the process :-
Create Purchase Order for 1 item, Qty = 21
Goods Reciept linked to Purchase Order - Qty = 21 this is 100% (Purchase Order Closes)
Goods Return linked to Goods Receipt - Qty = 1
Goods Receipt replacement item from supplier - attempted to link to Goods Return - none available - find goods return closed !!!
How can i link the new goods receipt with the original Purchase Order/Goods Receipt/Goods Return if the goods return is closed.
I'm using 2007A SP01 PL05
Thanks
Barry

Dear Mr Mason,
The scenario you described:
Return closed automatically after being added
is system behaviour.
It is not possible to link the new GRPO to the goods return.
The only suggestion I can give you is writing the GRPO and goods return numbers in the remark of the new GRPO.

Price Difference account when Creating Goods Return

Hello experts,
I got below case:
1) Create a GRPO
2) Created Landed Cost document
3) Create a Goods Return (realized the lot number entered on the GRPO) was incorrect.
When I create the latter document, this impacts the Price Difference account for the same amount increased on the Landed Cost document?.
The Accrual Landed Cost account it is the one that should get hit.
Any suggestions? is this how it is suppose to behave?

Goods return not possible for Del. w/o charge: Mvmt type 511

Hi
I've received free goods from Vendor using movement Type 511. Goods Return with reference to this entry cannot be carried out through MIGO -->Return Delivery.
System issues Error Message MIGO029:"The mvt type in the reference docmt cannot be converted".
One possible reason is:
"No subsequent movement type has been defined".
I've checked table T156N and in fact there is no Return Delivery customizing entry on the follow-on movement type nor can I seem to add it to the table.

Hi Nuno,
As per standard SAP system, for this movement type - 511 only 512 (reversal movement type) is supported.
In SPRO --> Materials Management --> Inventory Management --> Movement types --> Copy, change movement types -- for movement type 511 --> reversal/follow on movement types....against movement type 512 was configured.
As 122 return delivery movement type is not configured you are getting that error.
hope this clarifies.
Thanks,

Goods Return from GRPO to backdate with error.

Dear all,
I've got a problem from copying Goods Return from GRPO to the backdate, for example, GRPO Posting Date is '2011-12-11' and Return Posting Date is '2011-11-11', the system threw the below error:
Reconciliation date must be on or after the last posting date for transactions selected for reconciliation [Message 3821-3]
I am using B1 8.82 PL00, the error never come before in older versions of B1.
Please help me,
Many thanks,
Doan

Hi Doan,
Thanks for your answer.
You're right, I can backdate the DocDate, but what matters is the posting date because of VAT reports.
This way, the VAT is due on a previous date, and now it cannot be issued correctly and VAT reports are all wrong.
This never happened before 8.82, why now?...

Jorge

Goods Return to Store against Process Order

Hi,
Tell me how to do Goods Return to Store against Process Order
For E.g.
Process Order X having Material M1 with Requirement Qty 100 Kg as per BOM specification and Issue Qty using COR6 is also 100 Kg but due to less Consumption 20 Kg is required to be returned to store
So how to have effect of returned 20 KG against Process Order
Note : I have used MB1C option for Goods Receipt but it won't make any effect in Process Order
i.e. Requirement Qty -   100 KG
     Withdrawn Qty     -    100 KG
But in MMBE it shows 20 KG after receipt from MB1C
Kunal

Hi Vivek,
I tried as per your given direction but it won't worked
What I required is for E.g.
Process Order No 11111
Material No           Mat-A
Batch No              Bat-A
Storage Loc          PM01
Requirement Qty which is coming from BOM                        120 KG
Withdrawl Qty either using COR6 or MB1A (261 mov type)     120 KG
Consider that Process Order is already confirmed and due to some reason All the materials issued against Process Order has to be returned to Store for another Process Order
When I used MB1A and entered movement type 262 with storage location PM01 then click on To Order Button to enter Reference : Order and click on Tick Button
It then displayed only those materials which is not yet issued and required to be issued and automatically Movement Type changed to 261
Please guide

Goods Return from Production

How the rejected goods (at prdn) can be return from Production to stores, as the function in production of goods return is not working.( Issued production order of 10 nos, production completed for 8 nos, the remaining 2 are rejected & to be return to stores for further material accounting)

Shailesh,
When you are receiving goods after production suppose you have to receive 10 goods out of them 8 are OK and 2 are defective then in the receipt from production form you can enter the first line item by choosing the production Order from the production order Tab below and change the Quantity to 8 which you would like to enter into the Main warehouse while in the next line item manually enter the same Production order no. and in the qty column enter the 2 no.s of Defective goods and change the Wahrehouse no. to Stores. and add the form.
Now when you see the stock you will notice that in the Stores WH stock will increase by 2.
Please let me know if this has solved your problem.

Amount to credit greater than credit balance - goods return to AP Cred Note

Hi All,
I've got the following scenario:
We have a AP Goods Return on the system which totals £12.94 with freight charges of -£3.75. We have copied this to a AP Credit Note, but have amended the freight from -£3.75 to -£3.00(UK VAT Rate 15% applicable throughout). The total credit field now shows £13.80 and the credit balance field shows £12.94. When you try to add the document it gives an error "amount to credit greater than credit balance". I'm using 2005A PL53.
Can anyone please advise the reason behind the error and also what the correct way of handling this kind of transaction would be?
Kind regards,
Matt

Hi Wesley,
I tried both methods and it doesn't resolve the issue. Spoke to SAP, they gave me a solution and workaround, the issue is a bit more complicated as what it may seem. You manually have to close the goods return, create a standalone service credit note with the appropriate GL account to reverse out the "goods clearing account" entry created by the reversal journal. The bahaviour has been changed in SBO 2007 and therefore the problem is not present in this version anymore. Thanks for your help anyway.
Kind regards,
Matt
