Mass generation of invoice IDoc using VF31

When I go to VF02, header -> output, and manually input output type RD00, with medium 6 - EDI, I can successfully generate an invoice IDoc.
Is there any way that I can generate invoice IDoc from many invoices at the same time?
When I try VF31, choosing transmission medium 6, no matter I choose processing mode = 1 or 2, I can't get any message output.
Thanks.

Hi Gundam
VF31 is used to process outputs from invoices wherein the output has been determined in the invoice and not processed. In your case you are trying to determine the output in the invoice with the processing transaction and hence it is not working.
You can try creating output condition for RD00 in VV31 transaction and set up the transmission medium as 6 and the date/time parameter. If you want the invoices to be processed at one go keep it as 3. This will esnure that when the invoice is created, the output is determined. After that you can process all the outputs together (create idocs) through VF31 transaction. If you put date/time as 4 then the idocs will be generated on the saving of the invoice automatically.
Thanks

Significance of Mass generation of profile

Hi friends
what is the significance of mass generation of profile
regards
krishna

Hi Krishna,
Mass generation of profiles is used to determine which roles already have authorization profiles. Its a post installation Basis activity to make all roles active.
In case you create new role or modify the existing one, you have to generate profiles for that role individually. You can limit the choice of roles.
You do it using transaction SUPC. Its also possible to generate the missing role authorization profiles in the background.

Use IBAN number in outbound INVOIC IDOC

Hi,
I'm looking for a field to store the IBAN number in outbound INVOIC IDOC's. Apparently there is no separate field available for this. I would like to avoid extending the current IDOC structure and I would have expected the IBAN number to be part of the SAP standard outbound INVOIC idoc.
Has anyone encountered the same requirement? I have looked at the standard INVOIC01 and INVOIC02 structure.
Thanks
Walter

Hi Ken,
Thanks for the response. I'm indeed looking at the international bank account number.
I was hoping that SAP somewhere does have a solution to send the IBAN numbers and not that we have to overwrite the ACNUM field or create our own segment. I want to pass the regular bank account and the IBAN number in our IDOC so that we do not need to decide within SAP if a customer requires the IBAN number or any other number. We want to make that decision in our EDI mapping, not in SAP. I'm surprised SAP has not foreseen anything for this as the IBAN is widely used within Europe.
We already have a problem that we have more than 20 house bank with more than 20 bank accounts, so the SAP limitation of 20 K28 segments is already creating a problem for us.
I guess we will need to setup our own coding in the user exit. Thanks for your response anyway.

Mass printing of invoices

Hi,
when i create the invoice , the output types are determined automatically when saving the invoice in VF01.
1 )i want that no invoice printing shud happen while saving.
2) aslo i want all the invoices made by us during the day should be mass printed in the night.
3) there are three options in output type config. "send print with own application/send while saving/send with background job.
what is meant by send with pwn application
how to achieve the above two things. what config and or coding shud be done
regards
sachin

Hi,
1)If you do not want the invoice to be printed as soon as the doc.is saved,Go to VV31---> enter the relevant OUTPUT TYPE ->EXECUTE-> Chnage the value in the column DATE/TIME from 4 (4 Send immediately (when saving the application) to 3 (3 Send with application own transaction).
2)For mass printing you can use VF31 for mass printing and if you want the invoices to be printed in the night , then select 1(1 Send with periodically scheduled job) in the column DATE/TIME and do the necessary congig with your BASIS and ABAP team.
3) The 3 ,Send with own application means that the system will automatically populate the output type as soon as the transaction is being processed.

Mass Printing the Invoices

Hai Guys,
I am using the transaction 'vf04' to create mass Invoices / post the billing documents. However I need to print all the billing documents individually as my client handles about 500 - 800 invoices everyday and it quite impossible to open each billing document and print.
Can somebody let me know how the mass printing of invoices can be done in standard SAP.

Maheshwaran. I

Hi I Maheshwaran,
Use VF31.
Thanks,

Restrict INVOIC Idoc to certain company code

Hi,
I am generating INVOIC Idocs in SAP system and distributing using ALE ...I have successfully configured the ALE settings and could trigger the IDOCs for all the Invoices in the system.
Now my requirement is to restrict the generation of IDOC's only to a certain company code ..how can I achieve it ?
I have used filters on BD64 but it is only restricting some segments to be created in the IDOC...my requirement is to not at all create the IDOC if it belongs to different company code as the Invoicing for such companies will be manual.
I am using output type created through NACE to trigger the IDOC..can we restrict the output type on a compnay code..I maintained condition records at NACE but still all the company codes are getting triggered.
Please let me know if you have encountered such issue earlier.
Regards
Kumar

If nothing works (BD64, NACE) then there are exits available.
for example in function module mentioned below there is a user exit "EXIT_SAPLVEDF_004". If you want to restrict IDOC "only to a certain company code" raise exception "data_not_relevant_for_sending" in the exit
Function module      IDOC_OUTPUT_INVOIC
Function module      EXIT_SAPLVEDF_004
       EXCEPTIONS
              error_message_received        = 1
              data_not_relevant_for_sending = 2.

Error 'No tax code found for difference' in Posting Vendor Invoice IDOC

Hi All,
I am getting error message 'No tax code found for difference' while posting Vendor Invoice IDOC into SAP. IDOC type is INVOIC02. There is no difference in PO price, Invoice price and even Standard price. then why this error message? Other Vendor EDI settings are done ( OBCA, OBCD, OBCE etc). Is there any thing specific to be done in the config for this error?
IDOC has PO as reference document.
I looked into several threads in SDN forum but could not find proper solution
Can any ine help me with this issue?
Thanks in advance
Hari

Hi
You might be missing the tax code for uploding through IDOC
so you can use the t.code we02 and give the doc and find the error
go to the WE19 to edit the tax code
and USE the t.code BD87 to select the doc and process it
thanks

Error in Invoic Idoc - Vendor, Company code not found

Hi All,
We are facing an issue with an Incoming Invoice Idoc (Mes type - Invoic). A third party system sends the Invoices which are received by the XI system and then as Idocs into SAP.
The XI system is defined as a Logical system in R/3. We have created Partner Profile, Dist Model with XI as a LS.
The error that we are encountering is -
Customer , vendor <our LS> not known
Message no. FD110
A company code cannot be determined for LS
Message no. FD006
Are we missing out some data in the Idoc or are we missing some EDI configuration?
Please advise as to how we need to proceed.
Thanks in advance!
Liz

hi,
Error : A company code cannot be determined for LS
This means that SAP cannot match an appropriate company code with a partner profile :- and hence, doesn't know where to post the invoice.
Partner Type = "LS" (Logical System)
Partner Name = ""
I think what you've got is message FD006 - longtext for it can be found via transaction SE91 and sounds like this:
The system cannot determine the relevant company code since the allocation of the data transferred in the invoice is missing in Financial Accounting customizing.
The company code can be determined outside of the system and be put into the intermediate document (for example, from the EDI subsystem). Then the company code must be put into the E1EDK14 segment and ORGID field and the value "011" used as the qualifier.
Determine the company code for & & & in Financial Accounting customizing.
LS is your Logical System. So you might want to have a look at transaction OBCA where you can assign a company code name in the invoice for your Logical System.
In the E1EDKA1 segment. there are two fields PARVW (which is the qualifer or Partner function) PARTN (partner number). The information that is sent in the PARTN has to either match the information in SAP or has to be converted.
If the later is the case try transaction VOED.

Inbound processing of INVOIC IDOC without PO number and item check

Hi All,
I'm processing an Inbound INVOIC IDOC to create an Intercompany Vendor Invoice against a Purchase order but wish to do process this based on the delivery note number rather than the PO number. The INVOIC IDOC will not contain a reference to the Purchase order and thus the need to process it based on the delivery note number which will be referenced in the Purchase order Goods receipt.
However, when processing the Inbound INVOIC IDOC it is validating that the number in IDOC segment E1EDP02 with QUALF 001 is the purchase order number. In this scenario it won't be and therefore it errors. The delivery note number is in IDOC segment E1EDP02 with QUALF 016.
Could someone please tell me if there is a standard way that we can have this Inbound INVOIC IDOC processing using only the delivery note?. If I manual process in the MIRO transaction I can process an Invoice based on the dleivery note in the Goods receipt so would expect I should be able to do so also with the IDOC processing.
I have noticed that IDOC segment E1EDP19 with QUALF 003 is not being populated and therefore according to the SAP help the IDOC segment E1EDP19 with QUALF 002 holding the Vendor material number is checked. Could this have something to do with it not being able to process the Invoice using only the delivery note number reference?.
Thanks in advance,
Michael

Hi Karen,
According to Note 103051 - EDI: Multiple reference to same purchase order item.
Module IDOC_INPUT_INVOIC_MRM (only as of Release 4.0) for the logistics invoice verification can distinguish different goods receipts by means of the delivery note number. For this purpose, GR-related invoice verification must be active. Please check the note.
Thank you,
Shyam

Mass download of Invoices from FB03 transaction

Hi Experts
I have a requirement where my client want to mass download files from Archivelink
In detail
user will go to FB03 -> document list->dislay the report
then select all document and go to environment ->additional assignment->object links
The user can download the Invoice
Now the user wants to mass download the invoice for all the documents in document list output
I am new to this new concept
I just want to whether the user is DMS or Archivelink or GOS to store the files
If the client is using DMS how to mass download the invoice of the document?
If the client is using Archivelink how to mass download the invoice of the document?
If the client is using GOS how to mass download the invoice of the document?
I searched in few blogs and I found that it suggestable to go for a custom report to mass download the invoice?
Is my decision correct ?
Thanks in advance
Pawan Akella

Hi Pawan,
Standard SAP does not provision mass download of attachments to standard tcodes.
You may need to develop customer code
Also check for feasibility of solution/SAP notes described in thread http://scn.sap.com/thread/3414079

Mapping of large INVOIC Idocs

Dear SAP,
we have a 1:n mapping scenario.
The source is an INVOIC Idoc that will be splitted into several messages.
The INVOIC IDoc has a sice of 5MB and more than 35.000 data sets.
Because of the huge number of data sets / positions, there are two new
child-segments containing the data sets (see attachment).
INVOIC IDocs with only eg. 100 data sets has noch such child-segments
(see attachments).
In PI message mapping there is an error while mapping large INVOIC IDocs:
While 1:1 mapping of positions (E1EDP01) the text segments
(E1EDPT1/E1EDPT2) are not mapped correctly.
While mapping a position of child-segment ONE the text is mapped from a
position from child-segment TWO.
In our case the 166th position of child-segment ONE is mapped, but the
text is comming from the 166th. position of child-segment TWO.
The text mapping is 1:1. It works without errors while proceeding smaller INVOIC IDocs.
We can´t explain this behaviour.
Also the standard INVOIC structure does not provide such child-segments
while uploading into PI.
Is it a buffer problem in PI?
Is there a maximum number of data records in INVOICE IDocs?
Do we have to adjust the INVOICE structure in PI?
Thanks in advance,
André

Is it a buffer problem in PI?
Could be, but I have used bigger message size without any issues. If your mapping is not too complex, could you write an XSL mapping and check if you run into similar situation? Message mapping has definitely cache issues, hence I prefer XSL.
Is there a maximum number of data records in INVOICE IDocs?
No.
Do we have to adjust the INVOICE structure in PI?
No need to adjust the structure, just try with XSL mapping.

Invoice Idoc- Status 29

Hello All,
We are using IDOC_OUTPUT_INVOIC function module to send the invoice idocs from SAP.
Some Idocs are failing with error "Error in ALE service-No value could be assigned to the field BSART".
In the IDOC we see the E1EDK01-BSART field filled with value "CRME"..
The documents of type debit memo,credit memo,etc...are only failing.
Can anyone throw some light on this please.
Thanks
Meenakshi

Hi,
If you get status of 29 then there is no problem in the coding or your exection.
Only problem in the partner profile is not maintained .Then simply chekc in the we20 transaction or in table EDP13.

How is payment terms populated on a Invoice IDOC ?

Hi,
How does VBDKR-ZTERM_TX1 VBDKR-ZTERM_TX2 and VBDKR-ZTERM_TX3 get populated? Currently I see that in the INVOIC IDOC the payment term is populated from VBDKR-ZTERM_TX1 which is not based on payment terms. , I am getting the value 'Payable immediately without deduction'. I was wondering how did this value get populated which is different from the text maintained for paylemt term in table T052 table.
IDOC segment : E1EDK18-ZTERM_TXT
I see that the payment terms in the master table are carried onto Sales order and then to billing document which match the T052 value of the payment term but the IDOC is pulling some other value from some where.

Hi Praneeth,
if you have debuggin capability, please set a breakpoint in program LVEDFF0G:
CALL FUNCTION 'SD_PRINT_TERMS_OF_PAYMENT'

      OTHERS                       = 3.
LOOP AT zterm.
    CASE sy-tabix.

        MOVE zterm-line TO vbdkr-zterm_tx1.
      WHEN 2.

      WHEN 3.
        MOVE zterm-line TO vbdkr-zterm_tx3.
    ENDCASE.
ENDLOOP.
Then test the processing of an IDOC by VF31.

Unplanned Delivery Cost through INVOIC IDOC - Failing due to Cost Center

Hello all,
We are using INVOIC idoc for incoming invoice from the vendors, and are using E1EDK05-BETRG for getting the unplanned delivery costs. However, we don't want to use a default cost center (OKB9) for the "Unplanned Delivery GL Account", instead we want to use the cost center from the Purchase Order.
Is there any way we can get the cost center from the Purchase order while processing the invoice through IDOC?
Thank you,
Krishna

Hello Krishna,
As per my knowledge unplanned delivery cost is liability account not expenses ! Beyond delivery expenses you planned in PO ,you would enter in LIV. That time mentioned entry will be post
Material account........Dr ( If materials available)
To Vendor account,,,,,,,,Cr
Price difference account.......Dr ( If material not avialble)
To Vendor account..........Cr
Frieght alwasy materialized while doing the GRN.
