Invoice Verification - GRIV and standard R3 matching criteria

Hi,
I am asking what I think is a straightforward question, but has proven difficult to answer so far!
My organisation is reviewing our SAP R3 invoice match criteria, but first we need to establish what they are.
Is SAP standard GR-IV invoice verification as simple as:
1. PO number matches the one on the invoice
2. GRN quantity is less than or equal to invoiced quantity
3. PO line item price is more than or equal to invoiced quantity, or within our tolerance
4. Delivery note number on GR needs to match the one on the invoice
Are there any other fundamental matching criteria that we may be missing?
In addition, we are considering turning off the GRIV flag for certain types of vendors (those providing us with services, for which match criteria 4. above will never match due to there being no delivery note).  What are the differences in matching that will occur if we do this? - I have not been able to establish from my research whether a Goods Receipt is still required for the invoice to match if GRIV is turned off, for example...
Thanks,
Peter

This calls for ABAP support .... if you are really interested to it on your own ... try SAP Query that should help you out ... Cheers !!!

  • Same nr range in Invoice Verification (MIRO) and FI document

    Dear all can you please help to solve this issue?
    We would like to have the same number range for invoice verification and for financial document, what we have to do?
    Regards
    Marco

    Please follow the steps as below
    Step 1. Maintain FI document number range. Use transaction OMR4 and go to Number range for document types in FI. Select the company code for which you want to create the new number range interval and click on the change interval button. Insert a new document number range by clicking on the insert interval button on top of the screen.for example, I created number range interval 52 with the document numbers 5200000000 – 5299999999. Don't forget to set the external number range check box (Ext).
    Step 2. Assign FI number range to FI document types. The second step is to assign the number range created in step 1 to the FI document type for invoices. Again use transaction OMR4 and go to Document type. Double-click on the document type, which you are using for LIV invoices. In my example, I used the SAP standard document type RE. In the number range field, assign the new number range interval 52
    Step 3. Maintain MM document number ranges. Use transaction OMRJ and click on change interval button. Insert a new document number range by clicking on the insert button at the top of the screen. For MM documents, I created number range interval 52 with the document numbers 5200000000 – 5299999999. For the internal number range assignment, do not set the external number range check box (Ext).
    Step 4. Update MM number range assignment. The last step is to assign the MM number range to your MM transaction via IMG menu path Materials Management>Logistics Invoice Verification>Incoming Invoice>Number Assignment>Maintain Number Assignments for Logistic Documents>Transaction – Assign Number ranges. Two transactions are available. LIV contains the following two internal transactions that are used for the MM document number determination:
    RD: manual invoice entry (MIRO)
    RS: cancel, reverse invoice (MR8M), evaluated receipt settlement (MRRL), EDI invoice receipt, invoicing plan (MRIS), and revaluation (MRNB).
    You need to update the number range interval for transaction RD.
    hope now that things r clear
    reward accordingly

  • User exit during invoice verification (MIRO) and PO creation

    Hi,
        I have a following scenario to be support by ABAP development
    1. During invoice verification (MIRO) system should allow users to manually make any changes in amount and qty proposed by system.
    2. During purchase order creation i need a warning message in case of this po is first creating for that particular article and vendor combination.
       so that user will get alerted in case of wrongly choosen the vendor.Many a times user create wrong po, wrong GR and wrong invoice.
      since the business process activities are decentralized, person who is making GR is differ from the peron who had created po and invoice.
    Ex: material DCF is supplying by vendor VLC international, where there is one more vendor name with VLC traders. due to this name some time users will prepare wrong po, wrong GR and wrong invoice.
       plz suggest how can i suggest my  ABAPER to control this mistakes.

  • Tax amount difference in Invoice verification (MIRO) and PO

    Hi Experts,
    I create a PO of say 10000/- and 2% tax so the total po value is 10020/-. It is calculating correctly. But while doing the GR the GR/IR value is less say 8500/- .I don't no the reason it is picking the wrong value.The price control in material master is 'V'. While doing the MIRO the amount is coming 10000 but tax calculation is 25/- instead of 20. What may be the possible reasons for this ? Please help.
    Thanks
    Arun

    Hi Arun
    If ur material has Std price in material master accounting view then that price will get updated in GRN instead f the price in PO thru info record.
    Check that.
    Also is ur tax procedure is TAXINJ or TAXINN.
    In MIRO click on simulate and check what is the G/L that causes extra amount and let us know from which we cn help u better.

  • Cancel the GR and already Invoice verification done and payment is made

    Dear All,
    We need to cancel one or our GRN's for which the IV has been done and payment made to the Vendor.
    Actually the same material is to be used by one of our other plant located in diff. location.
    We are not having sales cycle yet in place,so that STO could be raised.
    We have decided to cancel the existing IV-GR and PO and raise the same for our other plant.
    Please help.
    In case of any more details,Kindly let me know.
    Regards,
    Anuradha

    Hello,
    If you have made the payment and the cashed cheques have already been entered into the system, then there is no chance that you can reverse anything.
    You must be having a stock transfer functionality across the plants within MM.

  • Vendor invoice and logistic invoice verification ?

    Good morning Guru,
    What is the difference between  "vendor invoice" in accounting module and "logistic invoice verification"  in MM module ?
    I know logistic invoice verification to validate between po, gr and invoice, but what vendor invoice for ?
    Thank's

    Hi
    Accounting-wise both has the same result as in both the scenarios you can debit expense and credit vendor. The advantage of Logistics Invoice Verification over Vendor Invoice is, in Logistics Invoice verification, we have three way matching of documents ie PO,GR and Invoice. So if there is any mismatch between these, the invoice will get blocked for payment. Also it checks for accuracy between PO and invoice and GR and invoice, so that the expenses are accounted accurately and price diff account also effected appropriately.
    In Vendor invoice booking, it is just like your normal journal entry and so it has not got that much authenticity over the correctness of transactions. In vendor invoice booking, there is every possibility of duplicate booking of invoice, whereas in LIV, the invoice will get blocked for payment.
    Hope it is clear.

  • GR/IR Freight Clearing Account - GR & Invoice Verification

    Dear Gurus,
    I have made a PO for 1200 pcs unit price 69.20$.  (GR based IV).   (Valuation - Moving average price)
    Delivery costs - Freight (FRB1) - 1200$
    I have splitted the PO quantity in to 3 different Inbound deliveries
    Inbound 1 - 400 pcs
    Inbound 2 - 400 pcs
    Inbound 3 - 400 pcs
    I have made the Goods receipt for the 1st Inbound - 400 pcs.
    Goods Receipt 1 - 400 pcs.  The value in the GR/IR freight clearing a/c credited by 400$
    Invoice Verification1 - 400 pcs. The value in the Invoice verification is 1000$.
    The value in the GR/IR freight clearing a/c debited by 1000$
    Goods Receipt2 - 400 pcs. The value in the GR/IR freight clearing a/c got credited by 400$
    Invoice Verification2 - 400 pcs. The value in the Invoice Verification is 2000$
    The value in the GR/IR freight clearing a/c got debited by 200$ and Stock in Hand debited by 1800$
    Goods Receipt3 - 400 pcs. The value in the GR/IR freight clearing a/c got credited by 200$
    Invoice Verification3 - 400 pcs. The value in the Invoice Verification is 1500$
    The value in the GR/IR freight clearing a/c got debited by 133.33$ and Stock in Hand debited by 1366.67$
    I don't understand how the logic works for seggreating the amount to GR/IR freight clearing account and GR/IR account.
    For the first 2 GR and IV I could understand that there is a  balance in the PO condition but for the Invoice verification 3. The value debited to GR/IR freight account is 133.33$. Can anyone help me how the calculation is taking place and how the system has arrived to figure 133.33$ in the Invoice verification for GR/IR freight clearing a/c
    Strangely when I have cancelled the Invoice Verification document 3.
    The value Credited to GR/IR freight clearing account is 333.33$ instead of 133.33$
    Can somebody help me to figure out the calucation for IR after the GR for planned delivery costs.
    If any SAP notes or help files can be provided then it would be really helpful.

    Symptom
    Delivery costs were planned for a purchase order item.
    A goods-receipt-based invoice verification is set.
    Several goods receipts are posted. For invoice entry, both in conventional invoice verification (transaction MR01/MRHR) and in logistics invoice verification (transaction MR1M/MIRO), the delivery costs for each purchase order item are displayed in total.
      This is the same as when, for example, only one of several GR documents/delivery notes is selected.
    Example of a purchase order history:
    Cat. Doc. no.    Itm    MvT Pstg.dt.            Qty.in BUoM       Value in local curr
    GR   5200002605 0001 101 June 16, 2000      5  PC         50,00 DEM

    Total delivery cost GR                                                 16,66 DEM
    If you only select the first GR document in the selection, you get
    the following default values for the delivery costs:
    Amount    Quantity  BUoM Itm  Decription              Vendor
    6,67         10      PC  10    Freight value        VEND01
    10,00        10      PC  10    Freight/quantity     VEND01
    (and not, as sometimes expected: -  3,33 DEM    5 PC
                                        -  5,00 DEM    5 PC)
    Other terms
    WEBRE, delivery costs, planned delivery costs, goods-receipt-based invoice verification, invoice verification
    Reason and Prerequisites
    A function such as the goods-receipt-based invoice verification is not available for delivery costs.

    This is not an error; this is a consulting note.

  • PO - GR based Invoice Verification/ IR Indicator

    Hi,
    I am facing a problem with the IR indicator in PO. The scenario is a SC is created, a PO is created automatically out of the SC and then a GR confirmation has to be done against the PO. I am using a service product.
    In the vendor master, I have set the "Goods-Receipt-Based Invoice Verification" indicator and "Invoice Receipt Expected" indicator.
    Now, if I create PO manually then these 2 indicators are defaulted into the PO follow-on documents indicator values. However, when the PO is created automatically from the SC only the IR expected indicator is set so I am not able to create a confirmation against the PO.
    The same way, if I set the "Invoice Receipt Expected" indicator and "Indicator:GR Conf.Expectd" indicator in the vendor master then only the "Indicator:GR Conf.Expectd" is set in the PO (created from SC) and not the IR indicator.
    Can someone suggest to me what could the problem be since a manual creation of PO picks up the indicator values from the vendor but it does not when created from a SC?
    Many Thanks,
    Saravanan.

  • MRBR- invoice verification block- relation to FI doc

    Hi gurus, please help me in the below issue.
    An invoice was posted using MIRO and due to price variance it is automatically blocked as 'R' for invoice verification.
    And this invoice was waiting to br released from MRBR.
    But, One of our users went into FB02 and changed the payment block on the FI doc (FI doc which originated from posting MIRO)
    and this invoice is also paid now.
    But when we run MRBR the same MIRO invoice is still appearing as blocked, I think there is a disconnect in SAP
    OR
    I didnt configure the system,so that when an invoice is cleared for payment from FI side it should also be synched with MM on a real time basis.
    Is there a OSS note on this, please advise
    Thank You
    MSJ

    Hello,
    Please refer OSS Note 394370 - FAQ: Invoice release - frequently asked questions.
    In this notes, there is an answer for your question. I clarify below.
    In Release 4.0B or 4.5B an incoming invoice was posted with the logistics invoice verification, the invoice was not blocked for payment. After the posting of this incoming invoice, you manually set a payment block in the FI follow-on document, for example by using Transaction 'Change document' (FB02).After the release upgrade to 4.6B or higher and after the run of generation report RM08RBKPBLOCKED, Transaction MRBR displays the incoming invoice as blocked. Why?
    This has technical reasons.The system cannot distinguish whether the FI follow-on document was provided with a payment block already during the posting of the invoice or only subsequently.
    This causes no damage.If you want to release the invoice for payment, you can use Transaction MRBR as usual.
    I hope it helps to you.

    I have a case in my importation process with excise duty (IS-OIL). I have the following scenario: Purchasing Ed free material and receive it in ED paid Storage Location. So I use Handling type 00 and Valuation type TAX in the PO excise duty item data. I woul like to kwon Which is the standard process for the invoice verification of the excise duty cost when the handling type is 00 and the valuation type TAX?. And How can I do the invoice verification (MIRO) if there is not a specific line in the purchase order history for the excise duty cost?

    Dear Prashant,
    Thanks for reply, but i checked my excise cond types, in all conditions, cond cat is blank & cond class 'A' is maintained i.e. Discount & Surcharge.
    My problem is that, my excise value is not got posted in net receivable value in accounts. This problem arise, when we make sales order, Net Value field doesn't pick excise there & while invoicing, it post only the base value & rounding off adjustments at header level. I don't know, from where this Net Value field in sales order is picking the value but my problem will solve if my grand total value(base valueexciseedu cess+higher edu cess) will pass to Net Value field while making sales order. Kindly help.

  • Invoice verification and logistic invoice verification

    Hello,
    What is the different between invoice verification and logistic invoice verification?
    My Japanese client need to work with t.code: VXJ2 - customs declaration for import billing documents - Japan
    When i run this report, it finds no data.
    I read the help for this transaction and it says that only invoice verification (and not logistic invoice verification) is supported for this transaction.
    Best regards,
    Avishai Kaplan

    Hi Avishay, 
    Logistics Invoice Verification 
    Logistics Invoice Verification is a part of Materials Management (MM). It is situated at the end of the logistics supply chain that includes Purchasing, Inventory Management, and Invoice Verification. It is in Logistics Invoice Verification that incoming invoices [Seite 11] are verified in terms of their content, prices, and arithmetic. When the invoice is posted, the invoice data is saved in the system. The system updates the data saved in the invoice documents in Materials Management and Financial Accounting.
    Logistics Invoice Verification is closely integrated with the components Financial Accounting (FI) and Controlling (CO). It passes on the relevant information about payments or invoice analyses to these components.
    Features:
    In Materials Management, Logistics Invoice Verification has the following features:
    u2022 It completes the material procurement process, which started with the purchase requisition and resulted in a goods receipt.
    u2022 It allows invoices that do not originate in materials procurement (such as services, expenses, course costs) to be processed.
    u2022 It allows credit memos to be processed, either as invoice reversals or return deliveries.
    Invoice Verification 
    The main aim of invoice verification is to ensure that vendors are paid the correct amount at the right time ( not too late but also not too early ). The process should have a high incidence of fi rst-time matching, to ensure that as little time as possible is spent trying to manually match invoices that appear to be incorrect.it is important to include as few steps as possible in the process, considering that the process of handling payments
    does not in itself add value to the company or to the vendor.
    Main steps: 
    The capture of the vendoru2019s invoice details
      The matching of those details to the details that we
    believe to be correct
      The investigation of any mismatches
      The release for payment of matched invoices
      The accounting entries involved ( including taxes and
    delivery costs )
      The details recorded for audit purposes 
    Hope this information helps you out in understanding the differences  between the two
    I ncase of any further clarification do put a message
    In case if this information is of any help to you please do reward accordingly
    Thanks  & Rewards
