Output MRBR: Payment Block (PMNT Block) and Logistics Payment Block

dear all-
Today I was working on an issue related to trx MRBR. I noticed that in the list that is generated by MRBR (when you opt for 'manual release') there are interesting fields:
- one is called 'payment block'
- the other is called 'logistics payment block'
I see that when an invoice line item has one or more blocking reasons the field 'logistics payment block' is filled with the value A. The 'F1 help' provides a good explanation. The other field (just 'payment block') is blank (although 'F1 help' suggests that the value R can be expected)!
Does anyone know what the difference is between those 2 payment blocks? And why is one blank?
thx
Ben

The logistics (MM) payment block is the payment block in the MM invoice, either set manually or automatically (e.g. price difference to PO).
The field payment block comes from the vendor line of the accounting document and is automatically set by system when a blocked MM is saved.
Hope that helps.

Using PMW(Payment medium work bench) and Classic payment medium programs

Hi
Can you please anyone explain the difference between PMW(Payment medium work bench) and Classic payment medium programs in the APP.
Please let me know based on what cosideration these can be used?
Thanks
Rajesh

The consideration is nothing, it is purely based on the business requirement.
Following information may be useful.
SAP has provided some of the DME structures for different countries. like GB_BACS for GB etc.
If your client is not part of those structure, probably you are required to create your own structure. It also depends on the bank of your client. They may want the file in a different format. Therefore, you need to first talk to the bank and get a sample file in which they need the format.
You can create the DME structure by using transaction code DMEE - Tree Type is PAYM.
You can create the DME structure as a flat file or XML file based on the requirement of your client (bank).
You can also copy the standard structure to Z structure and modify it according to your requirements.
Please also make sure that you have made settings in OBPM1, OBPM2, OBPM3 and OBPM4 (More importantly you should maintain the path where it needs to be downloaded)
Complete your FBZP settings - Importantly payment methods in country, select your DME structure.
Take help of basis consultant in order to create the directories. You can see the directories in AL11.
If there are no directory path maintained in OBPM4, then the file gets saved to temporary directory in AL11.
If you are using DME structure, then forget the classic payment medium.
1. First ask the bank for the format, file type etc. Ask bank for any document available.
2. The see for that country if SAP has provided any standard DME structure (Transaction Code DMEE - Tree Type PAYM)
3. If this is not sufficient, then copy the standard DME strcutre and modify it accordingly to your requirement.
4. Assign this DME structure in FBZP - Payment Methods in country. * Use payment medium workbench
5. Check with your basis whether any secured folders are created in AL11 (where the output file needs to get generated) - If not ask them to create.
6.Check your settings in OBPM1 / OBPM2 / OBPM3 / OBPM4 - (In OBPM4 make sure you have given the secured folder path and file name for your variant)
7. Run F110 - Check you have maintained your variant details properly for program RFFOAVIS_FPAYM
If you maintain all these steps correct, hope your DME file should get generated.

Ravi

Payment engine, bank charge and outgoing payment

Hi expert !
My customer wants to generate foreign outgoing payment, with Payment Wizard.
We're french, so I created payment mode, and I choosed File format : SAPBPFROPBT_AFB_FO
In case of outgoing payment file protocol, we must specify who paid Bank charge :
13 : supplier
14 : half us, half supplier
15 : us
By default, Payement engine's generate file with bank charge = 14. And, of course, my custommer wants bank charge = 13.
I wrote bank charge = 13 on BP Master Data, and I can See bank charge = 13 in OPEX table (I try all fields - InstruckKey - pymKeyCode - PeyRefDTLS - and of course PYLBCACode).
But Payment engine still generate a file with bank charge = 14.
In payment engine Help, customizing bank charge is explained for all regional options, but not for france.
Please, do you know how can I have a file with bank charge = 13 ?
Thanks,
Pierre-yves

Hi,
Bank charges and Overdraft fees will not be an open item account.
But your bank clearing account will be an open item account.
Error may be due to the incorrect posting rule defined.

Weekly limit on amount paid using manual and authomatic payment programme

Dear SAPers
I have a requirement to set weekly limits on amounts paid using the manual and authomatic payment programme. The organisation issues payments through one bank account with same payment method for manual and authomatic payments and would like to set a limit per week. This means that no further payments will be allowed when the set limit is reached - ie when payments issued for a particular week exceed for example u20AC500,000 no more payments will be allowed. The limit can be revised by the authorisaed person.
t-code S_ALR_87001486 lets you set the limit for the authomatic payment programme but I think does not let you set the limit for a period of time say a week.
Can you please tell me if this is possible to do or if it would require development and how to approach this. Your feedback is appeciated.
With thanks
PRG

You probably have to code an exit in the program SAPF110 and create a custom table to store weekly amounts used for payments.

Logistics payment block 'M'.

Dear Guru's,
One of our customer has posted Logistics invoice which has been blocked against payment automatically 'R' block and the same has been updated has 'A' in logistics payment block in table RBKP_BLOCKED. Later on the logistics payment block has turned to M(Manual block set in header - No blocking reason), we are not sure who the invoice logistics payment block turned to M now. Initially it was set to A in logistics payment block and R in block reason. Now it turned M in logistics payment block and R remained the same in block reason. We checked the invoice change details there was no changes done to invoice. User has also confirmed that they have not done manual blocking. Also there is no blocing reason in table RBKP_BLOCKED such as Blocking reason qty, Price, Amount etc. everthing appears to be blank.
SO i would like to know under which scenario, M will be updated in logistics payment block in table RBKP_BLOCKED.
Regards,
Hem

Hi Hemkumar
In standard practice,if invoice is blocked by logistic invoice verification(MIRO) because of tolerance
limit for tolerence key,Where Invoice price is very WRT Purchase order price.
Check all tolerence keys setting in t.code:OMR6
The other way invoice is blocked by logistic invoice verification(MIRO) by enhancement as material is in quality inspection.
You can use T.code: MRBR to release blocked vendor invoice for payment.Also you can use
T.codes:FB02 or FBL1N to release the blocked vendor invoice for payment.
hope this is use full to you
Thank

Remove invoice and credit note block

Hello all,
I have got a query with respect to transaction MRBR (Remove Block on invoice). The process that we follow is:
1) When AP clerk enters invoice, he enters the invoice with a 'R' block. This blocks the invoice from getting paid.
2) Every evening there is a background job scheduled with transaction MRBR. What this job does is removes the 'R' block from the invoice if it has got a corresponding GR.
3) This invoice then appears in the payment run and is paid off.
The problem with this process is when the credit notes are raised on account. We link the credit notes and invoices by copying the document number of invoice in the 'invoice reference' field while entering the credit note. The 'R' block also gets copied onto the credit note (if the invoice has the block). Transction MRBR runs overnight and removes the block from the invocie (if it has a corresponding GR) and the invoice becomes free for payment. However there is no parameter in the program to remove the block from the credit note as well. What eventually happens is that the invoice becomes free for payment, the credit note remains 'R' blocked and hence does not appear in the payment run to offset the invoice and the invoice gets paid off even though it had a credit note.
Is anyone aware of how to remove the 'R' block from the credit note or if there is a better process to work with invoice and credit notes.
Thanks for all your help
Regards
Keyur

normally, credit memo should be able to remove the block manually as soon as they are put in the sap.
they should not be mixed with other AP invoices.
and if the credit memo need to be paid, then it should have something like approval doc to support the block removing.
if it is just reversal doc against wrong doc, then also need remove the block by supervisor asap.

Automatic credit release of blocked Sales orders with pre payment

Hi ,
We have a requirement as given below.Please suggest a better solution for this.
The customers have the 'prepayment ' payment terms with different percentages of the sales order
value to be paid before the delivery creation.
When the sales orders are created, they are blocked for delivery by some credit block.
The business use VKM1 transaction to view these blocked orders and release them manually for
delivery creation after checking if the customer has made the prepayment.This is a tedious work
(since there are too many sales orders )for the credit manager who dont have the complete
visibility of how much prepayment the customer has made and need to manually check if the
payment made covers the sales order prepayment amount to be paid.
1. How can we do a automatic release of these blocked sales orders?
2. Is there any program(which can be setup as batch job) to do a credit recheck and release the order
automatically?
3. Will Milestone billing plan functionality satisfy this requirement?If so how?
We are using SAP version 4.7 without Project System.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ragesh

Hello,
This is not possible because when you created the sales order it has checked the credit limit for that credit limit and if you increase also now that block cant go automatically.
Go to VA02 i.e change mode of sales order and change something and enter may be if you created a order for 2 quantity then go to VA02 and remove the quantity 2 and again type 2 then system will again check for credit and now that is increased so the order will not block..
If this is for many order then you can run changes sales order BAPI for mass update. Take help from ABAP guys.
Cheers

Payment block in a vendor without invoice block

Hi,
We have a peculiar requirement.
Client is requesting us to block a particular vendor for payment however invoicing needs to remain open.
I presume we can do this using two methods:-
1.) Payment block in vendor master
Limitation 1 - Let us say that the block indicator is "A" which we have set in the vendor master record and in the configutation of the Block Indicator we Do not check the box of Change in Payment proposal and Check the box of Manual Payment block.
This will block the invoice for payment using F110 and will also not allow change of block in the proposal.
However this will not prevent payment block using F-53 (manual payments)
2.) Manually insert Payment block in the individual invoice posting
Limitation - End user can remove the payment block and then process the invoice.
3.) Default Payment block in the payment term that is in the vendor master record
Limitation - End user can remove the payment block and then process the invoice.
Can anyone please suggest me a method to achieve this.
Thanks,
Nitish

Hi
Invoice will go for a block only when the quantity and/or price at the time of Invoice goes beyond the Purchase order quantity and price. This is delpendent upon the tolerance limit you define in the customization for LIV.
If the quanity and/or price is less than that system only issues a warning message.
If you are not expecting any further delivery after say 50 (out of 100 quantity) you need to manually close the PO by setting the delivery completed indicator in Delivery tab of item detail of PO.

F110 - Error Msg "No payment due to delete flag or posting block"

When I use F110 To auto payment a AP open item, the system show the message "Vendor <Vendor Code> <Company Code>: No payment due to delete flag or posting block" in job log.
The AP open item information :
amount 480.
bline date : 2008/09/29
payment term : immediate payment
due date : 2008/09/29
vendor payment method : E
D : expense 480
C : AP - <Vendor Code> 480
The parameter in F110 :

indentification : TEST
Parameter :

docs entered up to 2008/11/10
company codes : <Company Code>
pmt meths : E
next p/date : 2008/11/11
vendor codes : <Vendor Code>
I don't understand the mean of "Vendor <Vendor Code> <Company Code>: No payment due to delete flag or posting block", how should I payment this AP open Item by F110.
Best regards,

Hi Eric,
Seems like your vendor has been blocked at company code level for any further posting. Try and check with transaction code FK05 or XK05.
If it's blocked then just unblocked it and then try run your payment run.
