MIRO Invoice Receipting Workflow Solution for unreceipted Goods / Services

Hi
We wish to improve the flow of Invoice Receipting (MIRO).
Problem:
Invoices are receipted centrally at head office
Goods/Service Receipts are performed on location at site
Some Invoices are received from the Vendor before site has goods/service receipted the item.
Current configuration prevents invoice being entered when no goods receipt.
Ideally, the sites would receipt on time, but as a solution we are considering two options. I would appreciate any thoughts on whether is possible as well as guidance on implementing a solution.
OPTION A. - With Parking
1. When Head Office cannot post invoice (due to unreceipted goods/service), user parks the invoice.
2. This sends a workflow email to the site that invoice has been parked.
3. Head Office attaches a scanned image of the invoice to the parked document, so the site can review.
4. Site enters Goods/Service Receipt.
5. Work flow is triggered back to head office that a goods receipt was performed against a PO that has a parked invoice
6. Head Office posted parked invoice.
OPTION B - Without Parking
1. Configuration is changed so that Invoice Receipt can be performed when no goods/service receipt.
2. Invoice is posted and blocked for payment.
3. This sends a workflow email to the site that invoice has been blocked for payment.
4. Head Office attaches a scanned image of the invoice to the parked document, so the site can review.
5. Site enters Goods/Service Receipt.
6. Work flow is triggered back to head office that a goods receipt was performed against a PO that has a blocked invoice.
7. Head Office unblocks invoice.
Many thanks
Adrian

Hi Adrian,
Option B is very much feasible by developing the workflow for users.
OPTION B - Without Parking
1. Configuration is changed so that Invoice Receipt can be performed when no goods/service receipt.
2. Invoice is posted and blocked for payment.
3. This sends a workflow email to the site that invoice has been blocked for payment.

5. Site enters Goods/Service Receipt.
6. Work flow is triggered back to head office that a goods receipt was performed against a PO that has a blocked invoice.
7. Head Office unblocks invoice.
IF GR based IV is removed, Invoice can be done before GR. Having a GR based IV tick in PO (Mandatory) would ensure IV is raised only after the quantity is delivered.
I doubt if Scanning of invoice copy is possible in the MM system, but it would be feasible via Document Management in SAP.
Alternatively, you can have Idoc based creation for Invoice based on GR quantity.

Change location and plant for Internal Goods/services

Hi all,
I want to change the plant and location information of product/material for SC item selected from Internal goods/services.
I am changing the plant and location - ( partner function 75 ) in doc change badi but its getting reset to originial value .
Even if i see item check the value is getting replaced with original value.
My question is can I change Plant/location for item selected from Internal goods/services. I could succesfully change the value when I selected item from catalog.
Please suggest.
Thanks.

yes I have assignned the plant i mean BE_plant in the specified badi.
But still its getting overwritten. So im guessing is that possible for internal goods/services.

Change label for "Internal Goods/Services"

Hi all,
In SRM550, Internet Service BBPSC01, template SAPLBBP_SC_UI_ITS 110, I would like to change the description of the text "Internal goods/services".
I guess this is corresponding to the BTN_INTERNAL_PRODUCTS.label in the code.
However, I am not sure how to change it and where to find the corresponding translation.
Thanks and regards

Invoice receipt without GR for PO

Hi
How to do Invoice Receipt without doing Goods Receipt for a PO having account assignment as K (consumption). Everytime user does not want to remove "GR based IV" check?
Is there any other way which will allow IR without doing GR.
Regards

Hi,
Normally the GR based invoice verification is an option to see that while MIRO, each and every delivery note is invoiced since GR based invoice verification provides that facility as system suggests the items made with GR as lines in MIRO.
Heoever you are procuring for consumption and you wanted the GR based invoice as not to be checked and this case is to be defaulted correct?
Here two quesdtions will arise
1.you want the GR to be done or not to be done.
2.If GR to be done you want to post the MIRO without refering to the partial deliveries done ( if partial deliveries are there for that PO) rather you want to post as against PO.
before you do any stting please deside about the above questions, and proceed.
please check the definition of account assignment at sprommpurchasing--account assignment please see the check boxes there which are relevant for GR /GR based and act accordingly.

MIRO - Invoice Receipt

HI
When i post MIRO i am getting the following error message :
Tax code IM country IN does not exist in procedure TAXINJ
Message no. FF713
Diagnosis
You entered a tax code which is not defined for the country of the company code to be posted to in the tax calculation procedure.
System Response
Procedure
Check and, if necessary, correct the entry.
Procedure for System Administration
If it is not an input error, check and possibly change the system settings.
To do this, choose Maintain entries (F5).
Check whether the company code is assigned to the correct country and whether the correct tax calculation procedure has been entered for the company code country.
Create a new tax code if necessary.
Caution:
Since it is possible that the tables in question are being updated at a different time on another computer, it can take a certain amount of time for the tax code to be on all local machines in client server architectures after saving the new code.
Please help me to solve this issue
Thanks & Regards,
Mani

Use transaction "FTXP" and check if the tax code you are using is assigned to the country your company is located in. If your code is missing for the country, then enter a new line to assign these two values. Also, make sure that the tax jurisdiction code is assinged to your country and company code. Then it will work.

Best workflow/solution for converting Flip HD Videos in FC

Ok, I have tried many different video/audio settings for bringing in Flip HD videos to edit and ultimately output using H.264 into .mov and .m4p files (for uploading to various web sites). I cannot seem to get a good result - lousy audio syncing and crappy looking video. The footage itself but I am not getting what settings to use to get it into FC, edited, and then out at least in some reasonably decent looking and sounding format. Advice please and thanks.
I have used Compressor to prep the footage but I was hoping to not have to go through so many many steps to get something done with this footage.

I have a flip UltraHD and am running FCP 6.0.5
This is my process.
• Copy the files from the camera to my scratch folder.
• Open up Compressor and create a custom preset for ProRes422 to use the existing video size and frame rate with audio conversion to 48khz (the camera records 720p30 and 44.1khz). Set the destination to "Source". Of course, you only need to do this the first time. Once you've created the preset, setting up the files in Compressor goes very quickly.
• Add the files to the batch list in Compressor.
• Drop the new preset on the clips and let your computer run. If you have a multi core intel mac, make sure you have set up the machine to use quick clustering. On a MacPro w/ 10GB of ram this goes very quickly.
• Go have a cup of coffee or your favorite cold beverage.
• Come back.
• Edit in a ProRes422 timeline to match your settings.
Note: ProRes files are not small. But, no one ever said this was an inexpensive or easy game.
Have fun.

Workflow - waiting for the communication Service - Msg 672

Hi,
We are facing problem in a program, which triggers mail through a workflow.
when the notification is rejected it calls an workflow
and when the notification is approved it calls an workflow
in the 2nd case.. when the notification is approved the mail is not getting delivered to the user.
in SOST we found that it is showing the satus sent.. with the Msg 672 ( waiting for communication services)
can anyone guide.. what may be wrong .. or where to check it and solve this issue
Thanks
am s

Hi,
You can use the program lines..
*** These two statemnets are used to force the mail to send it to the
*receipeint otherwise we need to go to SOST tcode where we need to press
* F8 to send the mail to the other user. To avoid this we need to use
*these two statemnets. Here the mail is not in queue.
submit rsconn01 using selection-set 'INT' and return.
call function 'SO_DEQUEUE_UPDATE_LOCKS'.
* SUBMIT rsconn01 WITH mode   = 'INT'
*                      WITH output = 'X'
*                      AND RETURN.
But since you care sending the mail through a workflow and not programatically,
Copy the standard BO, SELFITEM in which you can add the above two commands in the SENDTASKDESCRIPTION method.
Create a standard task in PFTC binding the z BO and give this task in your mail step which will force the mail to your inbox.

Best Solution for Busy WCF Service to Database

I have a WCF service that writes log records to a database for several applications. It logs sometimes 200K+ an hour. I am using entity framework currently to create the records and each is created independently (per call). That means a connection
is getting created for each one. I've found that because of the heavy amount of connections (this database is shared with another application), that I'm having max connection issues. Since this application is consistently writing to the database, I didn't
know if there was a better way of limiting its connections (maybe sharing them) as the inserts are done asynchronously so the requestor is not held up, and they don't have to be immediately inserted. Since immediately having them isn't a must have, I've also
considered writing the logs to a file then building a batch insert to occur every so often so that only one connection is open when that occurs. Just wondering what may be some suggestions on the best way to go about the creation and handling of the database
connections for a system like this? Thanks.

Hello acfalcon2001,
From my experience, in your case, it is not recommended to call SaveChange() for every record because as you also mentions, it would cause a the heavy amount of connections.
>>I've also considered writing the logs to a file then building a batch insert to occur every so often so that only one connection is open when that occurs
This is the way I would suggest you could do for your case, for using the batch insert in Entity Framework, you could set a static variable to count added the number of entities, if it reaches a limit number(you could set it to 100 or 1000 or others) and
then call the SaveChange() method(this method actually perform a batch insert operation even for one record). For this way, you could refer to the link below to check a detail usage and there is
detail test information:
http://stackoverflow.com/a/5942176
Or you could use another method:EntityFramework.BulkInsert
https://efbulkinsert.codeplex.com/
And from your description, it seems that your service would only perform an insert operation, if so, you could set:
yourContext.Configuration.AutoDetectChangesEnabled = false;
yourContext.Configuration.ValidateOnSaveEnabled = false;
This coudl improve performance of insertion.

Capitalization of Assets after MIRO ( Invoice Reciept)

Hi Gurus
Our system allows for capitalization of Assets after MIGO ( Goods Receicpt) Client wants to capitalize assets only after MIRO ( Invoice Receipt). System should not be able to do capitalization after MIGO.
Do we need to make any changes to configurations??
Thanks
Regards
Satish Kumar

Dear Satish,
When u r procuring assets thru PO, at the time of MIGO ur asset account will get hit & will be capitalised. Also, at the time of invoicing ur GR/IR account will get a corresponding effect.
Now if your client want NOT to capitalise asset during MIGO then try with the below option:
Any asset that has to be procured will not be directly procured as asset. Every new asset to be purchased from outside will have its AUC account created. Now amount lying in AUC acount is not termed as capitalised. Now say u r procuring 10 chairs. Create a AUC for these 10 chairs. Make PO with this AUC. So whenever u will do MIGO ur asset will not get any effect but the amount will get posted in AUC. So this will solve ur purpose of not capitalising at time of GR. Later after invoicing, user can capitalise complete AUC or partial AUC using AIAB & AIBU.
Hope this will help solve ur query.
REgards,
Ajay

Invoice Receipt Warning Message Appear After Upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6

Hi Gurus,
We do upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6. And we do Invoice Verification base on Delivery (Vendor delivery number), in our business process there more than one Purchase Order has same Vendor Delivery Number while GR executed. But only one Purchase order related to Invoice verification, others PO are Free PO (no need Invoice Verification).
The problem is:
In SAP 4.6C, while execute Invoice base on Delivery (Vendor delivery), system automatic select only PO with Delivery (vendor) which related/allow invoice receipt.
In SAP ECC6, while execute Invoice base on Delivery (vendor delivery), all PO selected. So than there are warning messages appear (warning pop screen) for those PO not allow invoice Receipt (message M8035: PO item XXXXX does not allow invoice receipt), and at the end PO which allow Invoice receipt then appear for further Invoice Receipt process.
At overall, the final result SAP 4.6C and SAP ECC6 is same (only PO which allowed Invoice Receipt will processed further).
The Question are:
1. Why in ECC6 appear warning message, while in 4.6C no warning message ? Is there config to ignoring the warning message. I've try to maintain system message for M8035 (t-code: OMRM) to ignoring the pop screen, but can not created.
2. How do we make warning message dissapear (no need warning message), because if the PO's has hundred items so user need to click enter hundred times.
Thanks in advance.

Tri Wicaksono

Hi,
could you please check whether the flag "GR-based IV" is set in the purchase orders?
If GR based-IV is ticked, then this pop-up cannot be suppressed.
If you would like to post the invoice first then GR-based IV should not be checked, otherwise this pop-up will always appear. I am afraid that this behaviour is standard.
Please, be aware that this feature is only available if you set in the Purchase Order item the 'GR-based IV' indicator:
   If the GR-IV flag is not set in the PO, then the system does not
   differentiate individual goods receipts. Please see the <f1> help
   for the field "GR-IV" in the PO item detail. Since the individual
   receipts are not differentiated, an invoice is not tied per se to
   an individual receipt and a goods receipt can be reversed despite
   an invoice receipt.
With the GR-IV flag set on in a PO, you can specify which goods
   receipt is being invoiced in an IR and which goods receipt is being
   reversed in a return. It is this correlation between goods receipts
   and invoices that enables you to specify for GR-IV PO's whether an
   item can be returned despite an invoice.
Please refer to the note :457511 Question 10.
Best regards
Erika

Invoice Receipt and GR Reversal

Hi
I've a intercompany STO for which we created a Delivery, PGI & GR. After this, we realised that we have an issue and want to cancel the STO - I'm trying to do a GR reversal (102 mvt ) but the error message is "Deficit of PU IR quantity XXXX.000 EA" - but the stock does exist and there is no issue with that stock. In the PO history tab, I see the 'Tr./Ev. Goods Receipt' mat doc., 'Tr./Ev. Invoice Receipt' mat doc., 'Tr./Ev. Goods Issue' mat doc. and 'Tr./Ev. Delivery Note' doc. in that order. All these documents are dated 11 Mar 08.What I'm I doing wrong? Any suggestions or ideas? Pl help.
thanks
BE

Hi Brian,
After reversing the Invoice, also make sure to reverse/cancel the Outbound Delivery doc in VL09. Also, cancel any Bills created by the Supplying CoCd in VF11.
Let me know if this helped.

Mewan
