MR11 query

Hi All,
I have a procedural query. My question is should system allow to reverse a Credit Memo or a IR after MR11.
Detail scenario is as follows
1- Created a PO for 50 Quantity (@10)
2- Created GR for 50 Quantity (@10)
3- Created MIRO for 50 Quantity (@10)
4- Posted Credit Memo for 10 Quantity (@8)
We know that there is a mismatch in Quantity and Value. Now i ran MR11 (filling the required parameters).
My question comes after MR11.
5- Does MR11 creates a clearing doc as well apart from a Accounting Documents.
6- Does MR11 balances only Quantity or it balances both Qty & Value. Can we see that in PO history after running MR11 ?
7- After MR11 can we reverse the posted credit memo ? If yes then is this the system standard behavior ?
Can i have a error message set, which will block the users for reversing an Invoice or Credit Memo after MR11.
Waiting for the reply
Regards,
Satpal

Hi,
MR11 is the transaction is for clearing the differences between the GR/IR posted.If the material is with MAP the already posted GR/IR will alter the price if there exists any differrances between the MMR price and PO price. may be MR11 will not alter the already changed price.

  • Enhance MR11

    Hello Gurus ,
    I am trying to enhance MR11 Transaction (Report : SAPRCKM_MR11) .  Here i am adding GR  and  IR  posting date(BUDAT)  as selection field  .
    Requirement is that MR11 should consider  Gr and IR for that period.. compare and show the difference .
    In the program
    I added posting date(BUDAT)  in the select query to  'v_ckmlgrir' .  and it is picking all the records with in that period , open and cleared both .
    1)   But I want only the open one .....and I dont see any flag for that ....so is there any way i can get only the open items ?
    2) I observed that if i dont specify posting date ...I mean just run the standard MR11 ...then also it picks up open and cleared items ....but during processing it is considering open only don't know why ..i debugged it  its going through every item item but in the end considering open only which is correct ....so not understanding why its not doing the same if i restrict it to posting date .....
    any suggestion is greatly appreciated !!
    PS : GR/IR account   open items I can see from FBL3N .

    If you are using an account assigned PO then possibly the order(PM order, internal order etc) to which your PO refers might have status as CLSD.
    Check and reverse the status.

  • GR shows as available though invoices are processsed more than G R . MR11

    Hi experts
    I have  a query , There are more invoices processed against A  PO than Goods receipted.All invoices have been paid
    All GR have been done  MR11
    An invoice got paid after MR11 was done
    If we try to process another invoice the GRs show as available
    My understanding was that once MR11 was done for GRs they wouldn't be available to process against them anymore
    Is that correct or other wise what is the functionality of it .
    Thanks in Advance .
    Points are assigned .

    Thanks for your comments. I think nobody expects Sun to write everything including special features for its components. But I do think Sun should provide at least those standard user-friendly features for the GUI components because most users have been used to the GUI user-friendly features provided by Win95 and Access/Excel applications. Then this will help us to productively create applications to beat MS applications.
    Other wise like me, to get the existing GUI features, existed in old MS Access application, for our migrated Java application, I must re-create the GUI components library first which is a big burden to me at least, for others it might be fun for coding on their own from scratch, but I have to focus on the timing of project.
    If you really can pass the request to Sun and push them move a bit, please pass these words: before Sun starts to revise them, please play around window GUI, e.g., Access/Excel applications, then plan what to do, the bottom line is to equally match or better than them in FUNCTIONALITY(Look and feel is not my focus here). Don't ignore the influence of Windows regardless of you hate it or love it, the reality is most users are so familiar with windows GUI features which are accepted as industry standard. Thus the choice is to match or better to beat them. Don't make your car by closing your door, don't assume users will like what you come out in a closed room.

  • Can we perform MR11 eventhough GR archived from the system

    Hello All,
    I am having a situation where user want to do MR11 for a PO for which material document (i.e. GR document) has been archived from the system?
    Presently when we are executing the T.code # MR11 for PO, it gives us the screen where we can't select the document and not showing any value as well.I think this is becuse of GR has already been archived.
    Can we do this,
    If yes, what's the process, (but at the same time business doesn't want to unachieved the document.)
    If not, any reason, apart from GR archived.
    Thanks and Regards
    Anand Misra

    Hello Jürgen,
    Answers to your query as below:
    GR document archived.......You mean Material document (archive object MM_MATBEL), right?
    Yes
    Why do you think that an archived material document stops the user from doing it?
    because when GR archived, then how system will comapre the IR value as GR already no more exist. this is my understanding, if not correct, please correct me?
    What is the exact message the user gets when he excutes MR11?
    No message issues by system
    What is the message number?
    N.A.
    MR11 searches for a PO document, so if the PO can be accessed with ME23N, then the PO is not archived and you should be able to find it with MR11.
    yeah I am able to find out the PO thru MR11, but no selction option avalable in MR11 screen, by selcting which I can post it.
    At the same time, it's not displaying any difference value as well, thats why I am thinking that as GR no more existing, hence it's not reflecting.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Query invoice booking

    Hi All,
    Freight/ Transportation charges amount has been added as a line item in PO.
    When goods are received, along with other line items, GRN for this line item also is being done (i.e. for transportation charges)
    But when FI team posts invoice, they are manipulating with the QTY & Amount (in order to match near by value/amount of vendor invoice) for this line item
    Resulting in invoice qty is more than GRN qty and invoice amount is less than GRN amount.
    In PO history tab, against invoice receipt document (IR-L), I can see GR/IR clearing value (which is not equal to zero, as compared to GRN document (GRSR)).
    If I do GRN to match with invoice qty, system is not allowing to do so, and throwing an error message of u201Cinvoice qty more than GRN qtyu201D.
    I want to short close the PO line. I had told to reverse the invoice documents so as the invoice qty will match GRN qty. But I think amount, will not match as there is a huge difference between GRN amount and invoice amount.
    Or there is any alternate method.
    I hope every one understood my query, now, what I should do. Please suggest.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Thank you for your previous psot.
    what about if payments are made to the vendor, will it effect the PO.
    Should i cancle the excess iinvoiced qty , so as to match with GRN qty and then perform MR11.
    After doing MR11 can i short close the item, by ticking delivery completed indictaor for line item.
    please reply.
    thank you.

  • Error while running a query-Input for variable 'Posting Period is invalid

    Hi All,
    NOTE: This error is only cropping up when I input 12 in the posting period variable selection. If I put in any other value from 1-11 I am not getting any errors. Any ideas why this might be happening?
    I am getting the following error when I try and run a query - "Input for variable 'Posting Period (Single entry, mandatory)' is invalid" - On further clicking on this error the message displayed is as follows -
    Diagnosis
    Variable Posting Period (Single Value Entry, Mandatory) is used as a lower limit (X) and an upper limit () in an interval selection. This limit has the value #.
    System Response
    Procedure
    Enter a different value for variable Posting Period (Single Value Entry, Mandatory). If the value of the other limit is determined by another variable, you can change its value also.
    Procedure for System Administration

    OK.
    Well, if the variable is not used in any interval selection, then I would say "something happened to it".
    I would make a copy of the query and run it to check if I get the same problem with period 12.
       -> If not, something is wrong in the original query (you can proceed as below, if changes to original are permitted).
    If so, then try removing the variable completely from the query and hardcode restriction to 12.
       -> If problem still persists, I would have to do some thinking.
    If problem is gone, then add the variable again. Check.
       -> If problem is back, then the variable "is sick". Only quick thing to do, is to build an identical variable and use that one.
    If problem also happens with the new variable, then it's time to share this experience with someone else and consider raising an OSS.
    Good luck!

  • Logical database in adhoc query

    Hello All,
    Can anyone tell me what is the logical database in adhoc query?

    Hi
    When you create a query , you have to select an infoset. Infoset can be considered as a source from which data is populated in the Query Fields.
    Infosets are created from Transaction SQ02.
    There can be four methods through which an Infoset can become a source of data:
    1.  Table join ( By joining two or more tables from Data dictionary)
         example: Joining tables PA0001 and PA0006 on Pernr to get a one resultant dataset
    2. Direct read of Basis Table ( Like PA0001 as a source for data in Infoset )
    3. Logical Database ( A Pre-written Program by SAP that extract data from clusters, tables taking care of authorizations and validity periods)
    Example : Logical database PNP, PNPCE (Concurrent Employement),PCH ( LDB for Personnel Development Data)
    Custom Logical DBs can be created in T_Code SE-36.
    4. Data Retrieval by a Program ( Custom code written by ABAP developers which will collect and process data) . This program has a corresponding Structure in data dictionary and the fields of this structure will be used in query)
    Reward Points, if helpful.

  • Query help on Goods Receipt Query with AP Invoice

    Looking for a little help on a query.  I would like to list all the goods receipts for a given date range and then display the AP Invoice information (if its been copied to an AP Invoice).  I think my problem is in my where clause, I plagerized an SAP query to show GR and AP from a PO as a start.  SBO 2005 SP01.  Any help would be great appreciated.  Thanks

    Hi Dalen ,
    I  believe it is because of the condition
    (D1.BaseType=22 AND D1.DocDate>='%0' AND D1.DocDate<='%1')
    OR (I1.BaseType=20 AND I1.BaseEntry IN
    (SELECT Distinct DocEntry FROM PDN1 WHERE PDN1.BaseType=22 AND DocDate>='%0' AND DocDate<='%1'))
    Try changing
    D1.BaseType=22 OR D1.DocDate>='%0' AND D1.DocDate<='%1
    PDN1.BaseType=22 OR DocDate>='%0' AND DocDate<='%1'))
    Lets see what would be the result . Lets have some fun with troubleshooting
    See what would be the difference in the result .

  • Can you check for data in one table or another but not both in one query?

    I have a situation where I need to link two tables together but the data may be in another (archive) table or different records are in both but I want the latest record from either table:
    ACCOUNT
    AccountID     Name   
    123               John Doe
    124               Jane Donaldson           
    125               Harold Douglas    
    MARKETER_ACCOUNT
    Key     AccountID     Marketer    StartDate     EndDate
    1001     123               10526          8/3/2008     9/27/2009
    1017     123               10987          9/28/2009     12/31/4712    (high date ~ which means currently with this marketer)
    1023     124               10541          12/03/2010     12/31/4712
    ARCHIVE
    Key     AccountID     Marketer    StartDate     EndDate
    1015     124               10526          8/3/2008     12/02/2010
    1033     125               10987         01/01/2011     01/31/2012  
    So my query needs to return the following:
    123     John Doe                        10526     8/3/2008     9/27/2009
    124     Jane Donaldson             10541     12/03/2010     12/31/4712     (this is the later of the two records for this account between archive and marketer_account tables)
    125     Harold Douglas               10987          01/01/2011     01/31/2012     (he is only in archive, so get this record)
    I'm unsure how to proceed in one query.  Note that I am reading in possibly multiple accounts at a time and returning a collection back to .net
    open CURSOR_ACCT
              select AccountID
              from
                     ACCOUNT A,
                     MARKETER_ACCOUNT M,
                     ARCHIVE R
               where A.AccountID = nvl((select max(M.EndDate) from Marketer_account M2
                                                    where M2.AccountID = A.AccountID),
                                                      (select max(R.EndDate) from Archive R2
                                                    where R2.AccountID = A.AccountID)
                   and upper(A.Name) like parameter || '%'
    <can you do a NVL like this?   probably not...   I want to be able to get the MAX record for that account off the MarketerACcount table OR the max record for that account off the Archive table, but not both>
    (parameter could be "DO", so I return all names starting with DO...)

    if I understand your description I would assume that for John Dow we would expect the second row from marketer_account  ("high date ~ which means currently with this marketer"). Here is a solution with analytic functions:
    drop table account;
    drop table marketer_account;
    drop table marketer_account_archive;

  • QUERY HELP!!! trying to create a query

    i'm creating a summary report
    i have a table with sale dates
    for example i have a table tab_1 and column saleDate as
    saleDat
    1923
    1936
    1945
    2003
    2005
    saleDate contains years and there are some missing years where no sale
    was made
    My report has to display years starting from earliest year
    so i have to create a query that starts with 1923
    but the problem is that I have to have years that are not in table.
    for example i have to display years 1924 which is not in table
    so the part of report has to look like
    1923 blah blah summary.........
    1924 "
    1925
    1926
    2005
    2006
    upto current year (2006 may not be in the table, but i have to display)
    i just need to know the query that can query all the years starting from
    the ealiest saleDate to current year
    thanks in advance

    Please write the query in the following form:
    SELECT a.year, --- place other columns from your table.
    FROM (SELECT (:start_num + rownum) year
    FROM all_tab_columns
    WHERE :start_num + rownum <= :end_num) a,
    tab_1 b
    WHERE a.year = b.saleDat(+);
    Note:
    1) if your start year and end year are 1923 and 2006. Then input as below:
    :start_num = 1922
    :end_num = 2006
    2) Since for some of the years (1924 etc) may not be there in your so you may need to use NVL to print proper indicators.
    3) If you have more than one record in tab_1 for a particular year then group them based year and then use it.
    Hope this helps.

  • IF statement in Query

    Hi
    I have a query / recordset that  would be looking at 12000 rows in a database and 10 different variables and potential filters chosen by end users.
    Should I put 10 wild card / url Where statements in my recordset query or should I put IF statements in my query.
    ie.
    If URL colname then ",and BetType= "xzz"" .
    Is that the most efficient way to run my queries.
    I will be running about 10 recordsets on my page all looking at these url variables so it will be a busy page.
    If that is the answer can someone please tell me how to insert the if statement - i've tried allsorts but it wont work.
    $colname_Recordset4 = "%";
    if (isset($_GET['colname'])) {
      $colname_Recordset4 = $_GET['colname'];
    mysql_select_db($database_racing_analysis, $racing_analysis);
    $query_Recordset4 = sprintf("SELECT BetType, sum(if(season='2006-2007', Bet, 0)) AS '2006-2007',  sum(if(season='2007-2008', Bet, 0)) AS '2007-2008',  sum(if(season='2008-2009', Bet, 0)) AS '2008-2009' FROM dataextract WHERE BetType Like %s and TrackID = 1 and Distance = 1000 and Class = 1 GROUP BY BetType", GetSQLValueString($colname_Recordset4, "text"));
    $Recordset4 = mysql_query($query_Recordset4, $racing_analysis) or die(mysql_error());
    $row_Recordset4 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset4);
    $totalRows_Recordset4 = mysql_num_rows($Recordset4);
    hope someone can help.
    Simon

    That part of the query cross tabs my data into three columns - not intended to confuse the issue. I'd have the same problem with a basic query.
    So Here is a very basic version:
    I want an IF statement to go around: "WHERE Distance = 1000" and "AND Class = 1"
    That I believe will reduce the effort on the MYSQL Server as it wouldn't be running a bunch of wild card queries and would only run if there is a URL paramter delivered.??
    I just don't get how to put the IF statements in PHP.
    thanks

    $startRow_Recordset3 = $pageNum_Recordset3 * $maxRows_Recordset3;
    mysql_select_db($database_racing_analysis, $racing_analysis);
