Mandatory entry of reference document field during confirmation

Hi,
I have a requirement to make an entry during confirmation in the field "Reference document field" as mandatory, currently only a warning message is thrown when the document is checked during confirmation and can be posted without an entry. How can i make this as a mandatory entry field. Also the standard field length is 16 characters, is it advisable to change this to 20 to suit one of the business needs, what are the parameters that need to be checked to make this change.
Please suggest.
Regards
GGL

Hi,
You can change that particular message to error ...
Goto SPRO -> SRM Server -> Cross Appl...  -> Message control -> influence message control -> select BuS2203 click on message control on the left side .. Click on new entry and then enter message class BBp_cf and id as 060 and enter type as "Error" .
I would not suggest to change the field length .
Thanks
Padhi

  • Make "Reference Document" field as mandatory in Confirmation

    Hi Experts,
    I have a requirement in confirmation to make "Reference Document" field as mandatory. I have done the config and able to see  ' * ' (mandatory) in the reference document field in confirmation.

    Schuffelen,
    Your suggestion is exactly correct.  I have to use DOC_CHECK badi for this.
    Reply from SAP on this below,
    The flag in the property will not generate an error message. This flag only renders the red asterisk on the screen. The actual error has to be generated on your code
    After you have done the customizing to get the field to be shown as mandatory, you have to write a code in your BADI (like DOC_CHECK) to check the value for this field and generate the error message if the field is empty
    Thanks for your help!!!!!!

  • Want to reduce the number of material documents created during Confirmation

    When confirming each phase on the process order, backflush of components happens and a material document is created .So if we have multiple phases, multiple material documents are created. This way we are having large number of material documents created for each process order .
    We do not want a material document to created for each phase but rather create one document while confirming the last phase of the process order. How can we achieve this? Is there a configuration or a user exit that can be used?
    Our goal is to reduce the number of material documents created.

    IF you assigned all the component  to final phase then You can get only one  material document for all the component
    or
    Remove  all the backflush setting   and do the Picking in COIK, The system will Post all the  261 movement component in one document

  • List Invoice documents as per Reference Document(GR,Service Entry sheet)

    HI,
    I am looking for sap standard tcode which shows a list of Invoice document against Reference Document(GR,Service Entry sheet,PO).
    I have checked few tcodes MB5s, MIR4, MIR5 But they not shows REfernece document (As specified in MIRO ie. GR, Service Entry)
    In purchase order history it is very difficult  to find out against which GR or SErvice entry sheet Invoice has been posted. Suppose against one GR multiple invoice document has been posted then we go though display MIRO and one by one check Reference document specified over there.

    Hi,
    Try with ME80FN T Code, try by changing/adding the fields.
    If you are not happy with the report you can create a SAP Query using the table MSEG,MKBF, RSEG, RBKP.

  • Reference document number field on Invoice line item

    Can anyone please tell me , where in customization , do i define what should get copied in the reference document number field on the line item of an invoice.
    Currently in our system, credit memo request number is getting populated for a credit memo.
    Thank you for your help in advance.

    Hi,
    If you are talking about line item level, then it is called Allocation Number. At the header level, it is called Reference number.
    This is controlled using the copy control for billing - at the header level control.
    The reference number & allocation number once maintained in the configuration, will show up in the Accounting doc - header level & item level, respectively.
    For example - if the customer payment always refers to his PO number, then it really helps to use the allocation number for the accounting doc line items - which helps in clearing incoming payment faster. In this case, the reference number could be our delivery number. This is one of the examples for using both Ref & allocation #'s.
    Hope, this helps!

  • Reference document 83246316 000020 (Error during Insert)

    I am abap developer and my func person told me that he is trying to create the Billing document  83246316  in VF01 and we are getting the following error (Reference document 83246316 000020 (Error during Insert)). Can anyone lemme know how to solve this issue.

    Do you think this would be the issue
    XVBRP_KEY = XVBRP.
    READ TABLE XVBRP WITH KEY XVBRP_KEY BINARY SEARCH.
    CASE SY-SUBRC.
    WHEN 4.
    INSERT XVBRP INDEX SY-TABIX.
    WHEN 8.
    APPEND XVBRP.
    WHEN OTHERS.
    MESSAGE A004 WITH VBAP-VBELN VBAP-POSNR. <<<<<
    ENDCASE.
    The error occurs due an incorrect SY-SUBRC after reading table XVBRP
    (SY-SUBRC not equal to 4 or 8). This means that the content of work area
    XVBRP is inconsistent.
    The problem is caused by a wrong source code in user exits or custom
    copy routine. Please check in programs RV60AFZZ, RV60AFZA, RV60AFZB,
    RV60AFZC, and RV60AFZD if you change the content of work area XVBRP.
    Please make the same check also in the eventual customized routines
    set in copy control.

  • Search Reference document UI not showing up during complaint creation

    Hello Gurus,
    I am trying to create a Follow Up Complaint from a service request, but when I select my follow up complaint transaction type I am directly navigated to Complaint creation overview page Instead my requirement is I should be navigated to "Search Reference document" UI screen because we wanted to search for ERP Sales Transaction to add items into CRM Complaints.
    I know that it can be achieved from Item assignment block of Complaint transaction but I wanted to the ERP Sales order Search option available.
    for the same Complaint transaction type when I try to create it by clicking on work center "Complaint", I get the "Search Reference document" UI Screen, I want similar screen when I create the complaint as follow up to CRM Service Request as well.

  • Format of reference document number is invalid  Message no. 8A556

    Dear Expert,

    Dear Experts,
    I have tried to investigate this problem but still have no solution for doc. type KR (Posting vendor invoice)
    During investigation on this problem, I did a simulation posting using document type other than KR (assign manually) either by t-cod FB60 or F-02 or F-43, I chose doc. type KA and SA, there is no error when using this doc type, it create Accounting document and Tax line item also appear.
    From the simulation I did with this problem, the  problem seems on Document type KR (default doc. type for Vendor Invoice). I suspect, it might some setting at other modul likely at MM that control the "Reference" field during document entry...  eventhough this field is not set as mandatory at OBA7, it's still saying the same error message.
    Is there anyone have any ideas about problem in document type KR?
    Thanks in advance
