MRBR not releasing invoice despite 3-way match

I have a PO with quantity 100. Then a GR was posted for quantity of 50. Then an invoice was posted for quantity 100. Invoice was blocked due to quantity variance beyond tolerance. Now another GR was posted with quantity 50. Now there is a 3-way match, I ran MRBR for the original invoice and selected auto release option. System is not releasing the block.
Anybody has any thoughts?

Check whether there are any payment runs/proposals that are already created for this vendors.
Also try to go to the accounting documents/invoices ( FB03) and try to remove the posting blocks manually over there.
Hope that helps..
Thanks,

Quantity variance in Invoice Vs. Three way match in PO

Hi Experts,
I am not able to find any differrence between quantity variance Vs. Three way match in PO.
For example in our purchase orders for all the items we are having Two way match (PO-Inv, GR-Bsd Inv is not checked) but we have defined quantity varaince in Invoice. So when we are trying to post invoice for purchase order item for which goods reciept is not performed, system is blocking the invoice due to quantity variance.
So i think if you have quantity variance at invoice level then system is going to check whether goods reciept is perfromed or not regardless of Two way or three way match.
Please advise if my understanding above is correct.
My second question is as we can define two way/three way match at various level (Supplier, Inforecord etc.). Is there anyway that i can define that quantity variance in Invoice should be for certain material groups only.
Please advise.
Regards,
Kamal

hi,
when you set the qty variance, and try to post the invoice just after the PO, the system will show a message at IR ie. " Quantity delivered is Zero"...
this message is warning message...
The system will block the invoice item when the doc is posted, depending on how the tolerance key DW is set(Qty variance to Gr qty = zero)...
Hope it helps..

Release Invoice MRBR (Blocked for payment)

Hello MM Experts I am handling one issue that is related to release blocked invoice. In my case invoice is blocked due to price difference though there is no price difference IN sceduling agreement, GR and invoice.
when we go to MRBR to release invoice it is showing diff value coloumn as 241.99
when i checked with ABAP team during debugging we found one formula as
<b>Invoice value local currency=qty invoiced*Net order value/QTY ordered in PO
261800*46376/261800=46376.00</b>
diff value=Invoice value foregn currency- invoice value local currency
241.99=46617.99-46376.00
Now my question how 46617.99 (invoice value foreign currency) is coming?
experts plz let me know ur thoughts on this

Hi,
If you are using a different vendor for the freight you must make sure to select the correct option in MIRO, you can select (in the central area of the first screen in MIRO)
1 Goods/service items
2 Planned delivery costs
3 is a combination of 1 and 2
So to post the invoice for the items 9without the freight costs) select option 1
then to post the fright costs seaparately (to the other vendor) select option 2 and make sure that you manaully change the vendor number to the correct freight vendor number. this will allow you to pay for the freight seaparately.
If you are using 3 in error, the system will block the invoice due to the frieght charges not being claimed.

Hello John, I put the (1,2,3) list in the query to show it works with multiple invoices.
You should comment out the conditions:
select a.invoice_no, b.child, sum(a.amount) from invoice_detail a,
select
child,
decode (instr(scbp,'.'),0,scbp,
substr(scbp, 1, instr(scbp,'.') -1)

start with child in (select element_id from invoice_detail /* where invoice_no in (1,2,3) */)
connect by child = prior parent

where a.element_id = b.starting_child
/* and a.invoice_no in (1,2,3) */
group by a.invoice_no,b.child
order by 1,2to show it works for all invoices

MRBR for multiple invoice with 1 GR

Hello
A question came up on how MRBR does it matching and clearing.
If we have multiple IR and one GR for the same line item does MRBR match on a FIFO basis?
Example: line 10 100 QTY    to be received at various time.
We receive invoice 1   6/1, invoice 2 on 6/15 for the same amount and Qty. No GR has been performed yet.
GR occurs on   6/17 which invoice would MRBR clear for payment Invoice 1 the oldest or Invoice 2?
*I tested and MRBR doesnot release any invoice automatically for multiple IR for 1 GR. User needs to release invoices manually.
What config needs to be done -
(We do IR before GR).
If we have multiple IRs or GRs then MRBR links and release automatically invoices based on FIFO basis.
Thanks.

****Hi Raf,****
****Thanks for the answer but it didn' work.****
****I tested PO with quantity 10 @ 100****
****Invoice receipt 6 @ 100****
****Good Receipt 5 @ 100****
****MRBR didnot release Invoice and it make sense as we paid more than receive.****
****I am still looking for answer to if we have multiple invoice to 1 GR why MRBR is not releasing invoices automatically.****
****E.G.****
****PO for 10 @ 100****
****IR for 6 @100****
****IR for 4 @100****
****GR for 6@ 100****
****When we run MRBR system doesnot release either of the invoices automatically. The invoices goies into quantity block.****
****Any help will be appreciated and points will be assigned.****
****Thanks.****

Invoice is not Release MRBR after GR

Hello,
*Usually the vendor sends invoice before the good is receipt. The invoice is paid after the GR.*we want the set up
(1) create purchase order**
(2) MIRO the PO**
(3) IR becomes blocked**
(4) Run MRBR - invoice receipt not released due to GR not having been done.**
(5) Do GR**
(6) Run MRBR automatically as a background job
(7)Check IR freed for payment
(8) Pay the Invoice
(9) GR/IR clearing
When I run MRBR #6 automatically system is not releasing IR for payment. I also tried tolerance DW, BR and PP-50%. May be I am not setting them correctly.
Please advice.
Thank you,

Hi
Can you tell me how did you achieve point (4)?
I also have a similar requirement in MRBR to prevent invoices from getting released if GR is not done.
Thanks

2 Way Match - PO and Invoice (no goods receipt)

Dear Gurus,
We need to Implement the 2 Way Match process between the Invoice and the PO i.e. perform the Match once invoice has been recorded. The condition is invoice value should be less than $500. This means supplier will be paid irrespective of a goods receipt for a PO line. The goods receipt can happen later to close a PO line.
Please see below examples which will fall under this criteria.
PO # A
Line # 1 - Qty = 10 - PO unit Price = 100 - PO Total = 1000
Inv Qty = 4 - Inv line Total = 400 - Inv Grand total = 400
PO # B
Line # 1 - Qty = 5 - PO unit Price = 80 - PO Total = 400
Inv Qty = 5 - Inv line Total = 400 - Inv Grand total = 400
PO # 3
Line # 1 - Qty = 5 - PO unit Price = 100 - PO Total = 500
Line # 2 - Qty = 10 - PO unit Price = 10 - PO Total = 1000
PO total = 1500
Invoice Line # 1 - Inv Qty = 5 - Inv line Total = 400 - Inv Grand total = 400
Can these be achived by some setups?
Is there a way by which we can achieve this?
Thanks for your response in advance.

Hi Venkat,
Thanks for the swift response.
In fact we will be doing GR but at a later date. The object is to not held the vendor invoice and payment (esp. for small amt) just bcoz goods reception not done. Understand your concern that GR/IR might cause an issue.

3 way match of invoice in SAP for legacy PO

My client is using legacy system for purchasing direct materials. SAP FI has been implemented. Customer like to carryout indirect purchasing (consumables - text purchase & MRO items) directly in SAP and hence we are configuring minimum org structure. When we suggested about 3 way match of invoices to customer for indirect purchases, customer expressed interest to carryout 3 way match for direct purchases as well in SAP. Please note that direct materials are procured in legacy system.
Customer query : Is it possible to carry out 3 way matching of invoices in SAP without material master & inventory management for direct purchases happening in legacy system. If so, please explain the solution and its pros and cons. Please share your experiences and lessons learned on similar requirement.. Also suggest alternate solutions..... Thanks for your time and help.

a three way match is matching quantity and price from purchase order, goods receipt and invoice receipt .
If all documents are done in SAP, then SAP will do this match when you enter the invoice
But if you procure in a external system and use only SAP-FI to post and pay invoices, then you cannot have a automatic 3way match. In that case the 3way match must be done manually by the accountant.

Insufficient Authorization old Invoices Will Not Release to Accounting

I have some old invoices that will not release to accounting. Instead of trying to secure a new credit card from the customer how can I remove the credit card information/or trick the order into thinking it doesn't need it so that I can get the open billing documents to the customers open account?
Please any help will be appreciated.
Again the error message is insufficient authorization, need to get these documents released to accounting.

That is true...if it has been partially utilized in another Billing doc, then it wont let delete the lines...
So when this hapenned to me, this is what i did....and maybe this is not the best practice.
I first got a Manual authorization in the sales order. Now generally we get the auth. from a 3rd party application Delego. So when we did the manual auth, we just entered a fake Auth number. This way, we tricked the system to let us post the Invoice to accounts. But definitely it posted to the card receivable account insted of the customer account. Now the settlement of this item would fail because the Auth number is not valid but the settlement fails only after it does the additional G/l posting to post to the Clearing account. To clear off this clearing account posting, we created a credit memo for the same amount and again with a fake Auth so now when this credit is processed for settlement, it also fails but reverses the provious debit...so that all accounts are now all balanced out.
So now remains the customer....so we finally did a Debit memo equal to the original invocie amout and now this posts to the customers account.
I was unable to find any other solution and was skeptical of doing any enhancement or changes just for a single case. Pls also let me know if you come across any better ideas.

Purchase Orders - Invoice Matching Option=PO with 4 way matching

Hi
i am new to AP and would like to clarify the following
what does the following combination mean ?
Invoice matching option = PO and 4 way matching.
Does it mean: invoice is matched against PO with out giving consideration for inspection and Delivery quantites ? because with 4 way matching, inspection, delivery are also matched, isnt it ?
kindly can someone clarify this confusion ?
Thanks in Advance

Hi ,
4 way matching should be with Receipt only , not with PO.
pl.refer following link to clear your doubts.

Is it mandatory to perform PO receiving for a 2 way matching Invoices in 12.0.6?

Requirement :
Supplier would send everyday some files with respect to the quantity delivered..This delivery would be ad hc and without against any PO#...Invoicing needs to go via a PO.
Solution porposed :
a) Create a Inventory Org for that specific vendor
b) Create Misc receipts for the items sent based on the file received
c) Create a 2 way match PO
b) Create an Invoice and pay the vendor.
Let me know if you see any loopholes with this solution.
Thanks in advance!

2 way matching in any version is between Qty Ord and Qty Billd.

SPRO  Financial Accounting  Financial Accounting Global Settings  Document  Posting Periods  Open and Closed Posting Periods
Here you need to enter Posting Period Variant name assigned to company code and other detail like account number.
To know the Posting Period Variant follow this path:-

Table for Invoices not release

Is there any table to find the list of invoices which are not released for accounting
if yes please let me know
Regards,
KK

Hi,
I think you could check table VBRK for the field: RFBSK(Status for transfer to accounting).
The different value of this field means like following:
     Error in Accounting Interface
A     Billing document blocked for forwarding to FI
B     Posting document not created (account determ.error)
C     Posting document has been created
D     Billing document is not relevant for accounting
E     Billing Document Canceled
F     Posting document not created (pricing error)
G     Posting document not created (export data missing)
H     Posted via invoice list
I     Posted via invoice list (account determination error)

Need SQL query for PO that do NOT have 3-way match.

The question is -- have any PO"s been generated with other then 3-way match selected - which means they overrode the set-ups in purchasing , to see if there are an PO that do NOT have 3-way match.
Thanks
Mohan.

1)Generally when ever we will do Supplier setup we will select in the Receiving tab Match approval level we will select either 3-way ,2-way,4-way or we will keep that as blank.
for that we do not have any direct column in the back end ,so we will use the following conditions.
'2WAY' inspection_required_flag = 'N'
receipt_required_flag = 'N'
'3WAY' inspection_required_flag = 'N'
receipt_required_flag = 'Y'
'4WAY' inspection_required_flag = 'Y'
receipt_required_flag = 'Y'
2)When ever we will create a PO in the shipments level what ever the Match approval level,
we defined in the supplier will automatically reflects in the shipments-More tab.
3)Here i wants to know all the PO's whihc are having Match approval level differences between supplier definiton and PO's match approval level.
(i.e If i will select a supplier for a PO , automatically we will get one Match approvallevel from supplier setup .if i will change that match approval level manually in the PO shipments -More tab i wants to know all that PO by using a SQL query.
4)But for some PO's i am getting receipt_required_flag and inspection_required_flag as null.But in the Supplier setup it may be one of the Matching approval.
Thanks
Mohan.
