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...........

Goods Receipt posting issue

Hi Guru,
I know it's an old question to rise but I forgot how to do it. Please help.
When doing goods receipt shows--posting only possible in periods 2006/12 and 2006/11 in company code 3000.
Thanks,Cindy

As I already inform you the solution, you can take use of either solution.
From your posting period issue, it is quiet evident that you are not working on a production client and .
Anyways, if you are on production client, then take assistance of MM & FI consultant in your team.
Solution 1:
Post your material with posting date in between 12/2006 & 11/2006.
Solution 2:
Using Tcode MMPV - Close Period for Material Master,
Provide your current date.
Radio Button - Close Period only.
Reason for selecting this radio button - Setting this indicator reduces the run-time of the period closing program by approximately 50%.
So logically speaking you have to carryout this for each & every month from 2006 to till date.
If you are doing it on your testing purpose, kindly follow following solution for your cause.
Solution 3:
Step 1. Use tcode OX18 - select the plants assigned to Company code - delete - save
Step 2. Use tcode OMSY - Enter current financial month & save.(06-2010)
Step 3. Use tcode OX18 - assign all plants to co code
Step 4. Use tcode OMWD - enter valuation area 0001.
Hope it can assist you.
Thanks & Regards

Message no. V1475 while doing free goods return process

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.
For Eg:
I created 1 Sales Order. Exclusive Order Qty. 10 + 1(free goods Qty.) -> PGI -> Billing done. Now while creating Return Order (RE) in VA01, system is giving error "Item category for item 000020 cannot be determined" and system not showing free goods quantity 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 resolved this free goods return order Issues
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.

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.
Edited by: Jeyakanthan A on May 21, 2009 3:26 PM

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 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.
Regards,
Krishnakumar
Edited by: krishnaoctopus on Aug 25, 2010 1:34 PM

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.

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 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

A/P Credit Memo in relation with Goods Return

Dears,
I'm not able to make an A/P Goods Return after Making a Credit Memo.
Because as I have the Credit Memo as a Financial Document, also I want to have a Goods Return as an Inventory Document.
Kindly Advice.
Thanks,
Kerolous Samuel

Dear,
Credit memo is nothing but reversal of total INVOICE.
As you said, you are not able to make goods return,
1) Check stock is available or not.If not revers the consumption entry
2) If you are using QM integration for GRN , system will generate an inspection lot for GRN.So now you need to reverse this inspection lot, so that stock will update in QUALITY STOCK.
Then you can return the stock using MIGO transaction(122 movement type). or
3) Assign the material code in P.O and activate check box as "RETURNS ITEM" and save.
4) Then do GRN using transaction MIGO for this return material.
Kindly check posting dates also for the inventory changes.

Closing an Open Goods Return Document

Hi to all
We also experienced returning goods that were already paid and were invoiced through A/P reserve invoice (same case with Avelino Fidel - thread on AP Reserve Invoice posted last Apr. 19). In our case, not all items were returned and withholding tax was applied in the original AP reserve invoice.   Refund was given by the supplier.
Original A/P Reserve Invoice - Journal Entry
Þ     Dr. u2013 Goods Received Not yet Invoiced          10,000
Þ     Cr. u2013 Supplier                                                          9,900
Þ     Cr. u2013 Withholding Tax Payable                                    100
Original Goods Receipt PO - Journal Entry
Þ     Dr. u2013 u2013 Supplies, Materials and Parts            10,000
Þ     Cr. u2013 Goods Received Not yet Invoiced                    10,000
Original Outgoing Payment - Journal Entry
Þ     Dr. u2013 BP                               9,900
Þ     Cr. u2013 Bank                                         9,900
In order to transact the returns in SAP, we tried using Goods Return without base document instead of A/P Credit Memo in order to incorporate the tax withheld. (in A/P Credit Memo, tax withheld cannot be applied when there's no base document). Journal entry is as follows:
Þ     Dr. u2013 Goods Received Not yet Invoiced                    5,000
Þ     Cr. u2013 Supplies, Materials and Parts                                     5,000
After Goods Return, we used Bank Reconcilation to close the Goods Return with the following entries:
Þ     Cr. u2013 Goods Received Not yet Invoiced                                 5,000
Þ     Dr. u2013 Supplier                                                        4,950
Þ     Dr. u2013 Withholding Tax Payable                                    50
Þ     Cr. u2013 Supplier                                                                      4,950
Þ     Dr. u2013 Bank                                                            4,950 ( refund from supplier )
When I checked the Goods Return status using Banking -> Bank Statements & Reconciliations, the ap credit memo is no longer in the list. However, when I checked its status using Purchasing A/P -> Goods Return, the document status is still open. Then we tried I tried closing the document through DATA >> CLOSE but an error message appeared: No matching records found u2018G/L Accountsu2019 (OACT) (ODBC-2028)
How can we change the status of the Goods Return Document to closed ? Shouldn't it be automatically closed after doing the bank reconciliation?
Thanks in advance.
Luche

Hi Luche
In SAP Business One 2007 there are some new features for closing documents without having to pass them on to the Invoice/Credit Memo. In the case of purchasing documents you can now close the Goods Receipt PO and the Goods Return documents. In order for the system to account for the income or loss as a result of the document not being passed on to a payable document, it looks for the account number marked as Goods Clearing Account in the account determination. If this account number is not filled in you will get the error you saw.
Hope this helps
Kind regards

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 receipts and Goods returns against PO

Hello gurus
Good day to you. please find my requirement below
1. i am get ting GR against PO data from legacy system and i need to post Good receipts or Goods retruns documents (ie based on the quantity recieved, if it is +ve value for quantity then post goods receipt against PO and if it is -ve value for quantity then post goods returns against PO) in SAP by using PI as middleware.
2. IDOC provided is MBGMCR03 and message type is MGBMCR.
So now my question is based on the received quantity i have to change the movement type as 101 and 102 respectively in idoc mapping of PI but i want to know how can i do that. i am little confused about the usage of the idoc type provided in mapping like how can create IDOC with goods receipt or goods return based on the received quantity.
I request you to please let me know the process to follow. can i use only one idoc provided for mapping and can i do this task in only one interface, please clarify. if i can use the idoc provided and if i can do this task in one interface (ie legacy - PI - SAP), please let me know the steps which i need to follow to complete my scernario successfully.
Thanks and Regards
Raj

Hi,
>>>i am little confused about the usage of the idoc type provided in mapping like how can create IDOC with goods receipt or goods return based on the received quantity.
you cna use function substring (from standard graphical message mapping)
and use it to check the first char of the quantity
if it's - then map 102 to the MOVE_TYPE field of the idoc
if not then map 101...
I never worked with 102 with MBGMCR but 101 against a PO works for 100%

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.
