MRBR-Invoice block

Hi SAP Gurus
I have a scenario where for one company code/plant if I do MIRO without MIGO, the invoice in blocked for qty variance and canbe seen in MRBR report.
The same thing does not work for another company code/plant.
I am using the same material and all other GR flags are also same for both PO's.
Has anyone comeacross similar issue ?
Are the invoice block ( MRBR block) settings avalable at Plant/Vendor/Company code level.
Thanks in advance.

Hi.......
Invoice Blocking is at company code level. U can defined Tolerances for qty and as well as price also.
Go to SPRO - MM - Logistics Invoice verification - Invoice Block.
Here u can find the Invoice Blocking settings.

Invoice blocked for payment without GRN(MRBR)

Hi all,
I need to have a report which should show the details of invoices blocked for payment and which dont have any GRN means Invoice is generated without GRN and hasbeen blocked because of either of quantity or price difference.
For the same I tried to use MRBR report but it is showing all the invoices blocked but what I need is invoice generated and blocked for payment without having a GRN as base document.

Hi,
You can use ME2L but in MRBR report better use filter and sort documents by blocking reason R1 (Missing GRN), this should solve your purpose.
Hope this helps you. Any point?

Invoice Block was not removed though MRBR was ran.

Hi Every One
We have created a Purchase Oreder in SRM and G R( Goods receipt ) and IR (Invoice receipt ) happend in ECC.
My problems is that 42 IRs happend for each one as one quantity in different time zones .The timings are as follows :
On 16 th One IR happend and On 18 th In different times starting from
14.17.38 to 15.55.29 37 IRS happend each one as one quantity .
Mean while on the same day at 14.28.24 GR happend for 10 Quantities .
Users ran MRBR for releasing the Invoice Block R . ( Invoice verification ) .
Now the problem is that despite the fact they have ran MRBR, invoices were not released or cleared ( R Invoice verification block .) for G R happend for 10 quantity.
The Purchase Order had created for 42 Quantity .
Thanks In advance .
Ravindra.
Points are assigned .

check that the documents saved, run MRBR again and check for lock entries and update issues.

MRBR: PO blocked for price but per PO, price match invoice?

Hello SAP Gurus-
I am puzzled. I have an invoice blocked due to pricing but the invoice matches at QTY and price to the PO. I checked the PO and the invoice for changes and found none. What could be the problem?
THanks!

Thank you-
The block is R for invoice verification. The reason for the block via MRBR is price. There is no price variance which is why I am concerned. We never had this issue before and we have been live on SAP for 2 yrs.
I have checked OMR6 and OMR9. Not coming up with anything.
As I mentioned, the invoice matches the PO in quantity and price.

MRBR - Release Blocked Invoices

I am experiencing that MRBR release invoices that have just been blocked due to variance. This without any change having taken place in the PO or anywhere else.
E.g.
1) PO. 1 item of 680 USD.
2) GR. 1 item of 680 USD.
3) IR. 1 item of 360 USD. Blocked due to price variance (this set to 200 USD / 10 % in customizing)
4) MRBR release manually. Shows that the invoice is blocked due to price variance of -320 USD.
5) MRBR release automatically. Releases the Invoice.
The issue is:
As I understand MRBR automatic release, it should only release the invoice if the blocking reason no longer applies, but nothing changes between 4) and 5) above. I.e. the blocking reason should still apply and MRBR should therefore not release the invoice.
Any comments would be very appreciated.
SAP HELP TEXT:
Indicator: release invoices automatically
Controls the automatic deletion of the blocking reasons Quantity, Price, Date and Quality from the selected invoices, if they no longer apply. The system automatically releases invoices in which all blocking reasons are deleted.
Use
If you select this field and choose Execute, the system deletes all blocking reasons that satisfy the criteria entered in the group box Selection of blocked invoices and that are no longer relevant.
Price variance
Purchase order: 100 pieces @ $10; Delivery: 100 pieces; Invoice: 100 pieces @ $11 = $1100
The system blocks the invoice for payment (Blocking reason P).
Change to the purchase order: Order price = $11/pc. or
Subsequent credit memo for $100
The blocking reason no longer applies and is deleted when the system automatically releases invoices.

Use of MRBR - Release block invoices

Hi,
I want to know use of TCode of MRBR - Release block invoices.
I did MIRO. There it was payment block. Then i went to MRBR expecting that i can release the invoice from there. But payment block was not removed. So let me know what is the use of MRBR.

The link given has following lines:
1. Since the total invoice amount is to be paid and not individual invoice items, the blocking indicator is set in the vendor line of the accounting document. As a result, all the items in an invoice can only be released at the same time.
2. MR02: invoice release transaction for blocked invoices that were posted in CIV (MR01)
3. MRBR: invoice release transaction for blocked invoices that were posted in LIV
I have following doubts:
I did MIRO & payment block automatically is picked up. I thought by using MRBR, that payment blocked will be removed. But this was not the case. But according to 1st sentences mentioned above, it should be done.
What is meant by CIV & LIV in 2 & 3 sentence.

Invoice blocked for qty reason, but condition type deleted from the PO

Hi Gurus,
I have an LIV with R block in the header level. The invoice contains a line item for planned delivery cost condition type FRB1 which was entered manually during PO creation.(no condition record exists for FRB1). But the condition type FRB1 is missing from the PO line item now and when trying to release the invoice block via MRBR, it gives the message that the 'list is incomplete'.
The PO is not having any release strategy and the invoice number is available in the index table RBKP_BLOCKED.
The condition type FRB1 got deleted from the PO on re-triggering the pricing. The business needs the pricing to be carried out on the shipment date from the vendors site. So when the vendor issues the goods, the same is updated in the pricing date field in PO line item and the pricing is re-triggered. So in this case the happenings were in the below sequence.
1. Buyer created PO with manually entered FRB1 condition type.
2. Invoice posted against the PO.
3. When vendor has shipped the goods, the ASN updates the pricing date in the PO and carries out re-pricing. The FRB1 got deleted from the PO on re-pricing as no condition record existed.
4. Goods receipt posted
5. Trying to release the invoice in MRBR, but the system gives the message that the list is incomplete.
Please suggest how to go ahead with the resolution of the issue.
Regards,
Greg

Hi Greg,
Are there any a/c entries showing in GR a/c doc for this cond type? I think it could be a bug when you run the ASN Idoc. Try to un-check Delete indicator for FRB1 which would stop it getting deleted.

Invoice Block due to price variance

Dear Friends,
In invoice verification I have configured invoice block for price variance (PP).
I have mentioned upper limit as 5%.
PO---100
GRN---100
Invoice---120
I have made this as warning message. I want this should not be open for payment before releasing in MRBR. After posting the document in MIRO it shows that invoice is blocked for payment. The payment bock indicator in payment tab in MIRO shows as "R"--Invoice verificatin.
But system allows this document for payment to be done both in f-58 & f-53.
So please tell me how to stop payment to be done before releasing it in MRBR.
Regards

Hi

Please check with your FI consultant

MRBR- Remove Blocking reason automatically

Hi,
we have below scenario:
Invoice created for a vendor in MIRO with reference to PO withour GR. Payment Block "R-Invoice Verification" is set in the invoice due to Quantity and Price Block.
Now the requirement is to remove the Invoice block automatically in the background and work item should be removed from the inbox.
When we scheduled a batch job for MRBR with options "Release automatically" ,system selects only the invoice where the reason code is invalid i.e., where a GR has been performed for the invoice.
Checked SDN forum but could not find the solution.
Can you suggest how we can automatically remove the block using MRBR without creating GR.
Thanks in advance.
Raj.

MRBR - Manual Block Reason

Hi All,
When we run the MRBR ( Release Block Invoice ) and select release manual, we found some items do not have quantity differece or price differenc. However, we found some maual block reason. When I look the manual block reason items in MM and FI documents, all are free for payment. in FI and MM side.
When I run release automatically in MRBR, system do not pick up manual block reason items to release.
Anyone know why MRBR indicate manual block reason ? How can we release the manual block items automatically ?
Thank You
Alex Lee

Hi
Automatic release for manual blocking is not possible in standard SAP. You need to release it manually in MRBR transaction by choosing option Release manually. Only invoices blocked due to variances can be released automatically

INVOICE BLOCKED

hello guru,
during invoice verification payment is blocked
amount is tally with the vendor invoice
in MRBR Release blocked invoie
blocked due to date cross mark showing in line item
please help

In T.code OMR6 check what tolerance you had given for key ST: Date variance (value x days)
For ST the system calculates for each item the product of amount * (scheduled delivery date - date invoice entered) and compares this product with the absolute upper limit defined. This allows relatively high schedule variances for invoice items for small amounts, but only small schedule variances for invoice items for large amounts.
You can make do not check for this key in t.code OMR6 so that it will not block in future.

Antony

Invoice block release

Once the goods receipt occurred that the standard SAP invoice release program would release the MM document payment block. There are quite a few times we do not get GRs (Samples and Promo) and these MM invoices do not get released.
For the above requirement currently they are manually relasing invoice block using MRBR transaction, but I need to automate the MRBR process by new custom program, I can get all the MM blocked invoices but how do we relase the blocks?. What transaction can be used to release this blocks?.
Valuable inputs will be awarded, appreciate your help

Dear Alex,
In standard, MRBR, You can only use automatic release for the blocking procedure Blocked due to variances.(tick the release automatically).Others than this , you need to manually release it.
As i know the release program just change the value of BSEG-ZLSPR from blocked to "free for payment " (value "space" in table).

MRBR: Invoices from 2 yrs plus appear How?

Good Morning SAP Guru's
I have an critical issue where we in AP review MRBR daily and this morning we have over 80 invoices blocked for payment but they are over 2 yrs old? How does this happen?
We don't have payables that old!
Any input would be great!
I want to add, up until 5 months ago, the AP group, in error, was releasing invoices for payment on the FI side i.e. via FBL1N and not using MRBR. I think this may be the issue. What is the solution?
Edited by: AMS on Oct 21, 2010 10:25 AM

Thank you but I don't think you understood my question.
We used to release the invoices blocked for payment incorrectly through FI via FBL1N. We had been live with SAP for almost 2 yrs at the point until we found out we were releasing them incorrectly. We now have been using MRBR for the last 3 or 4 months.
As of last week, we have gotten an influx of invoices blocked from 2 yrs ago that have already been paid because they were released incorrectly on the FI side.
I have the following questions on how to fix this:
1. Why are they showing now? How do we find out? By date?
2. Do we release them? If so, what will happen? Is there an OSS on this? I found one but we are on ECC and I could not find OSS for ECC.
Thank you.

Custom invoice Block into MIRO

Hi Gurus, I need to block an invoice based on the account assignment (internal order). The block should be a 'logistic invoice block' (displayable as a manual block into MRBR).
Some can help me ?
thanks in advance
CIAO
Alda

AKPT,
Thank you for your response.
My purpose of blocking invoice is If the invoice date is before the PO creation date that invoice should be blocked and should show in MRBR as other invoice verification blocks. I am using BADI - MRM_PAYMENT_TERMS to set a ZLSPR(Payment Block Key) as a custom block, but this is going under Manual block in MRBR and not able to see Blocking reason in RSEG. Please guide me how to do in this scenario.
Thank you in advance.
