GR based IV indicator ECC 606

Hello,
Since upgrading from ECC 604 to ECC 606, we are unable to change the GR based IV flag on the PO when vendor is maintained with this flag. In other words it is forced by vendor record where previously it was defaulted by vendor record and could have been changed on PO level. We are running SRM 702 in the extended classic scenario. When we set the PO for no GR in SRM, and the vendor has GR set, the ECC PO is not updated, however the SRM PO allows it.
Firstly, SRM and ECC is behaving differently. Secondly, ECC is forcing a 3 way matching process based on vendor settings where we want to be able to change PO's. Thirdly, the behaviour has never been this way up to the point of upgrading.
We have looked at the ECC release notes, but there is nothing that indicates changes to system behaviour in this regard. Also not finding helpfull OSS notes.
Could someone please tell me how we can remove the ticks on PO level without changing vendor level.
Regards
Rene

I have have investigated further and it seems like it is a replication issue / bug. The flags are not replicated by from SRM. I have found 2 OSS notes relating to this (below), but they are in an earlier release. We are on 606 and they cannot be implemented.
1494600 - BAPI_PO_CHANGE: GR_BASEDIV will be set
1438316 - BAPI_PO_CHANGE - GR/IR indicators are not transferred
Has anyone come accross this problem? SAP is not very good with supporting us and generally takes very long. I have opend a call with them, but this is very urgent as we have 600 odd invoices that needs to be paid which now requires a GRV.

GR based IV indicator changes

Hi,
We are on SRM 5.0 SP12,ECS.
For material PO's ,the indicators GR_IND and IR_IND is not set and no follow on docs exist for the PO than GR_BASEDIV can be modified in SRM PO.
However if one of the indicators is set,can the GR_BASEDIV be changed in SRM PO?
Also for one of our PO's,when the IR_IND is set and if we try to change/uncheck the GR_BASEDIV in SRM PO,the changes are not replicated to ECC.When I manually run the FM for the PO transfer,the changes are than transported to ECC.
Can someone advise why the changes for the GR_BASEDIV are not replicated to ECC in the first attempt??
Thanks.

Thanks Muthu for the prompt response!I am too working on this issue and would like to clarify more on this:
The behaviour which we see currently in our system:
Buyer create PO in SRM ...at this time,all the Flags under follow on documents link at item level in PO i.e. INVOICE RECEIPT,CONFIMRATION BASED INVOICE INDICATOR,Confirm Performance of Service/Goods Receipt all three are checked/ticked.PO replicated successfully with same data for indicators to ECC.
Now when Buyer changes SRM PO to uncheck the two GR indicators i.e.Confirmation-Related Invoice Verification and Confirm Performance of Service/Goods Receipt ,then SRM PO gets changed but the changes are not successfully replicated to ECC and SRM PO goes into status "Error in Process".
NOTE : All these PO's have no follow on docs created yet.
As per the notes you provided,the behaviours in case of SRM PO change i.e. the Buyer able to uncheck the two GR indicators from SRM is not expected as the std behaviour...Considering this ,do you suggest we apply all the relevant notes for this GR indicator issue?
Also I had one questions regardsing the names of these GR indicators...Are the table fields GR_IV, IR_IV and GR_BASEDIV corresponding to screen fields "Confirm Performance of Service/Goods Receipt " , "INVOICE RECEIPT" and CONFIMRATION BASED INVOICE INDICATOR respectively???
We are on SRM 5.0 SP12.,ECS.
Thanks again for your time!You are the best!

Srv-Based IV indicator in Service POs

Hi all,
What's the difference between the Srv-Based IV indicator and GR-Based IV indicator in the Invoice tab of the Serivce PO. I am aware of the fact that in order to do Serv Entry Shett in ML81N, the "Goods Receipt" indicator in the Delviery tabl of the PO has to be flagged. When this is check GR-Based IV ind is automatically flagged.
What's the effect of Srv-Based IV indicator in the PO in MIRO?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
The service based IV is aimilar to GR based IV and the service lines entered in Serviece Entry sheet are carried to Invoice verification.
When u set the serivce based IV the GR based IV is automatically ticked because for the reason that,
when u post a service entry sheet, along with it system automatically posts a material document with movement type 101 for accounting postings.(similar to a GR posting for a material in MIGO). You can see this in PO history once u complete a Service entry sheet.

MRao

CONFIRMATION BASED INVOICE indicator in SRM PO

Hi all,
Can someone explain me the significance of the check box "CONFIRMATION BASED INVOICE" indicator under follow on documents tab in PO in ECS .
Why is this indicator not changeable after the follow on docs are created for the PO?

Hi,
If you have already performed confirmation to the ECS PO, then it is right you cannot change the indictor anymore. The invoicing is dependent on the status that GR must already be happened which is stated by the PO checkbox.
You may like to read [OSS note 1536971 |https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1536971] for more explanation.

GR based IV indicator not changed with BAPI_PO_CHANGE

Hi Folks,
We have a scenario where we need to create a new item in an existing PO.We are using BAPI_PO_CHANGE.
We should also set the "GR based IV" field as space for the new item.
But the indicator remains as 'X'.
I'm passing the following values:
At header level: PO no, pur org,vendor,com code,doc type,pur grp,curr.
At item level:item no, material,price,qty,and
POITEM-GR_BASEDIV = space.
POITEMX-GR_BASEDIV = 'X'.
Please inform there is mistake in my input to BAPI .Appreciate and any suggestions to solve the problem.
Thanks in advance.
Jay

Thank you for the response.
Found that the vendor master has the GR based IV option selected.
This means that when a PO item is created the GR based IV indicator is set to 'X'. But we can change the same PO item to remove the indicator.
Thanx again for your suggestions.
Jay

GR based IV Indicator do not appear in PO for Raw material

Dear All,
I am creating a PO for material with cost center . Vendor is maintained with GR based IV and ERS Indicators.
If a non valuated material (i.e. with quantity update and without value update) is used in PO , I am able to see Tick for GR based IV indicator.
But in the same PO when Raw material( quantity update & value update ) is used , Tick for GR based IV indicator disappears although it is there in Vendor Master.
Please provide your valuable advice/solution.
Thanking you in anticipation

Change GR based Invoice Indicator after GR

Dear Experts,
We have a PO for which GR is done . So, the GR based Invoice indicator is greyed out in Invoice Tab of ME22N.
We need to uncheck this for a business purpose. How can I uncheck this Indicator? Revesring GR is is not an option for me as I have WM and HU nterface and cancelling TO and Deliveries will be time consuming.
Is there a solution available to uncheck teh GR based Inv indicator in such scenario?
Please revert
Regards,
Shashidhar

Hi,
Not Possible unless you Reverse the GR. Even after reversing the GR also, it should not allow.
The only option is cancel GR, mark PO line item for deletion and create new PO or add ne line item in the same PO and then do further activities by deactivating "GR based IV" indicator.

Migrate BSC to BW based system to ECC system

Hello all,
We have very unique situation.
We implemented BSC (Balance Score Card) in BW system. but we have to stop use current BW system. and only we can use ECC 6.0. I'd like to implement BSC in ECC and migrate all previous history date to ECC 6.0.
Does anybody know how to migrate BSC data from BW based system to ECC based system?
Thank you,
Jeongbae Min

What you should do is doing the following:
1. In R/3 create a transport request.
2. Include freely selected objects and select all odjects of type OSOA (Active Datasource).
3. Transport it to R/3 QA.
4. Connect QA to BW and replicate the data sources.
5. In BW Transport Connection collect all Transfer rules (only necessary objects).
6. In the source system mapping (F8 in the transport connection) map source system R/3 DEV to R/3 QA.
7. Import the BW transport request into the BW DEV. Now you should get a QA transfer rule for each dev trasfer rule.
I didn't try this out but it should work this way. Maybe you start and try it with one Transfer Rule.
Best regards
Dirk

Change GR based IV indicator in Me22n after GRN reverse

Dear All,
I have issue related to GR based IV.
I created a PO with delivery cost.
did GR wrt PO where Material account got debit and Gr/ir and freight clearing got credit.
During MIRO user did not found any freight amount(i.e Clearing account). So they put manually as a unplanned delivery cost and post the wrong entry.
So i analysed and found that due to the un tick of GR Based IV in PO, they did not get freight clearing account in MIRO.
So i reversed the MIRO and GRN and when i go to PO change mode then GR based IV is in disable mode. It is not allowing to change.
So kindly guide me how to resolved the issue

Hi Dev,
Even if i reverse the document, i am not able to change it.
Anyways it is resolved now, actually during MIRO i have selected wrong layout that is why delivery cost was not showing.
Thank u all for u r support.

About invoice verification without GR-based indicator set in PO

Dears,
As I know, when carry out invoice verification for a PO without GR-based IV set in PO/Vendor/PIR, there will be no reference invoice quantity and value in item lines of the invoice. User must input them manually according to real values in the invoice paper sheet delivered by Vendor.
Now our client want the system sets the default value from PO in invoice verification, and they don't want to tick GR-based IV indicator, how to realize it?
Thanks all for your reply!

Dear,
1) At the time of time of Vendor master - XK01.
In purchasing view tick on GR Bsd Inv.
So due to this, at the time of purchase order creation this indicator is autometically put from vendor master.
2) Quantity of purchase order is autometucally pur from good receipt.
So create good receipt first than create invoice verification.
So due to this at the time of invoice verification system take quantity from good receipt

GR Based Invoice Verifcation indicator

Hello All,
In the PO GR based Iv indicator is set. It is not selected in Vendor master and InfoRecord.
Can anyone expalin the possibility of the indicator set.
Thanks

Hi!
please check the documentation for this field also.
Indicator: GR-based invoice verification
Indicator specifying that provision has been made for
goods-receipt-based invoice verification for a purchase order item or
invoice item.
Use
This field controls the default value for goods receipt-based invoice
verification when an info record is created and - if no info record
exists - when a purchase order is created.    >
If this field is selected:
the field "GR-based invoice verification" is preselected in the info
record when such a record is created for this vendor. (Note: if you
change the selection in the vendor master record, the info record does
not change automatically);
the field "GR-based invoice verification" is preselected in the order
item field when a purchase order is created for this vendor if no info
record exists for the vendor and the ordered material.
Another thing that is important, is that the default field value is
controled in dependency of the flags invoice receipt/goods receipt.
(If one of these or both flags would not be set, than it could be that
the field goods-receipt-based invoice verification is deleted)
This means that the flag goods-receipt-based invoice verification is
just set, when both (IR and GR) also are proposed, as just in this case
goods-receipt-based invoice verification makes sense.
Best regards
Erika

Gr-based-IV flag not changable by SRM buyer

Hi,
We are on SRM 7, ECS. Our vendor masters in ECC do not have GR-based-IV flag ticked. When we create a SRM PO, the GR-based-IV is not ticket by default. The following are the default status of the 3 indicators in SRM PO by default:
GR indicator: Ticked
Invoice Expected: Ticked
Confirmation based Invoice verification (this is GR-based-IV): Not ticked
Now the buyer wants to enable the GR-based-IV indicator in the SRM PO, while keeping the GR indicator and Invoice Expected ticked. He is unable to so, since the field is grayed out. Is this a SRM bug , since this is allowed in ECC PO ( i.e. if we directly an ECC PO)
On similar lines, if the vendor master has u201CConfirmation based Invoice verificationu201D ticked and the SRM PO also has Confirmation based Invoice verification ticked, how the buyer can untick it while keeping the GR indicator and Invoice Expected as ticked.
This SRM behavior is different from ECC behavior. Is this a bug and is there a note for it?

Hi,
you have told that in the vendor master in the ECC the Flag is not ticked.
If the vendor has been replicated from ECC then in SRM also the tick will not be there.
Option 1
if you want the GR Flag to be ticked .please do so in ECC and replicate the vendor in SRM
Option 2.
go to the supplier POWL .
Select the supplier and tick the
Confirmation based Invoice verification (this is GR-based-IV).
Create Shopping cart PO will be created with flag ticked
This SRM behavior is different from ECC behavior. Is this a bug and is there a note for it?
No
