PO Flip to invoice: In SRM

Hi Gurus
Would like to know whether PO flip functionality is available in SRM i.e. an invoice would be posted as soon as we create a PO.
Looking fwd to your replies
Harsh

Hi Jerry,
1. The sending of purchase orders to vendors per XML is executed by default via implementation BBP_PO_SEND_XML of BAdI EXEC_METHODCALL_PPF. SAP delivers implementation BBP_PO_SEND_XML as standard implementation. If standard behavior is not ok for you, you can change it (see note 492988). In this method, SRM checks if you use XI or BC (depending on vendor data and XI activation in SPRO), and then send the PO with function BBP_PO_SEND --> META_PO_SEND (BADI BBP_EBPXML_OUT_BADI to change systemtype from SAPXML to EBPXML).
Depending on the target system type:
BCEBPXML1 BBP_BAPI_PO_SEND
XIEBPXML1 BBP_XI_PO_SEND
XISAPXML1 BBP_SAPXML1_PO_SEND
In your case last FM is called to send a PurchaseOrderRequest message to XI (or a PurchaseOrderChangeRequest or a PurchaseOrderCancelationRequest).
2. There is no particular SRM business scenario, as this is not a "business" scenario (like Sourcing, self service proc...) but a technical interface. PO output is not linked to a particular scenario (common to all).
In XI you can find corresponding messages in Integration Builder (namespace http://sap.com/xi/SRM/Procurement/Global).
In term of XI Business Scenario, you can use scenario Service_Procurement_SupplierEnablement in Intergration Builder configuration.
3. SAP Solution Manager has all the configuration information you need.
For PO output http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm50/helpdata/en/91/41faf2c220e84c9002a4ae4cc1906a/content.htm
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm50/helpdata/en/bc/62c13bdd55f821e10000000a11402f/content.htm

Tax error while posting an invoice in SRM

We are using SRM 5.5 SP4, ECS and ECC 6.0. We are using vertex for tax caluculation and we configured the tax calculation to always occur in ECC.
One more important point is, client has decided to use invoicing in SRM. Now the problem is we ran in to so many tax related issues and we opened OSS messages for this but SAP did not help. Let me explain the problem in detail.
1) We used to get "Tax jurisdiction code could not be determined" error while creating shopping cart, but we implemented note 436760 and hardcoded a value and got rid of that error.
2) When we create a SC, the copy of PO is created in ECC and vertex is called for tax calculation and tax is calculated properly based on the tax hierarchy except when you use the Shipping Address (external), so when I used the delivery address other than plant, it should calculate based on that address but it was not doing that, its calculating based on the cost object's jurisdiction code. For this problem, we have implemented ME_ADDRESS BADI in ECC, but with this BADI, it is always taking delivery address's jurisdiction code, which is also wrong.
The tax jurisdiction determination should be from 1) Delivery address if its different from plant, else it should look in to the cost object, else storage location then plant.
So we implemented the above logic in that BADI and there is no problem with PO taxes.
3) When we create an invoice with reference to PO, the invoice verification program is always determining the tax jurisdiction code from plant even though the taxes on PO are calculated based on cost object, hence the IDOC is erroring out by saying there is a difference in tax.
So we implemented the user exit and used the same logic of tax determination and its fixed now.
4) Finally, we are trying to create invoices without PO's in SRM, here no tax calculation is happending in SRM, but when we try to post the invoice in to ECC, we are getting the following error
"SAX processing failed on input stream#SAX processing failed when attempting to add child element to parent. (parent element=com.vertexinc.tps.common.domain.LineItem, child element=com.vertexinc.tps.x.."
So I am not sure how to fix this, we are at the dead end now out of ideas, so trying to get some help from experts like you about looking at this problem in a different angle. Now there are a couple of questions I can ask you
1) Did we do something wrong by selecting R/3 as the tax calculation system, if not is it difficult to fix this error and move forward?
2) What if we need to change the design and start calculating the taxes in SRM by connecting SRM to Vertex, will there be any new challenges? and do you have any config doc for this? Also we are implementing this rollout for US, Canada and Mexico companies.
I would really appreciate if you can reply me with your valuable input. You can also email me if @ [email protected]
Thanks a lot,
Sreedhar

Hi
It's recommended to have the same Tax related configuration data replicated in SRM system from R/3 as well.
I don't recommeded you to go with Hard-coding of tax codes.
We have faced similar issues with Delivery address and we have to solve it using our custom logic inside the BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI and BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK BADIs.
Anyways, send the detailed business requirements to my mail which are already having with you. )
I will definitely help you out.

Error while creating an Invoice in SRM

Hi All,
We are on SRM 7.0, ECC 6.0 (Classic scenario).
My SC has been approved and a PO has been created in ECC, I have also created a confirmation against this from SRM which resulted in a GR being created against the PO in ECC.
Now when I am creating an Invoice from SRM, I get the following error messages
1. Please enter tax amount
2. "Term of payment does not exist in target system".
Pl let me know where I need to maintain the payment terms in ECC and do I need to replicate it on SRM side?
Regards

Hi Sivakumar,
I am also facing same issue in my current project. Can you please tell me how you resolved the issue.
Thanks for advance helping to resolve the issue.

Sunanda
Edited by: SMABAP on Dec 31, 2008 7:36 AM

Hi,
please check whether your PO has sent to R/3 system or not . if it is there in R/3 then please create a PO with MIRO transaction.....
Before creating the invoice please check whether vendor has GR based invoice vertification or not...
if you are not able to do then ask your FI team to do this....
Thanks

Posting date filed not available to modify in invoices from SRM

Hi there.
When we try to create an invoice from SRM ITS, the field posting date it is as displayed field, we can not populate it with another date. The value of this field is always the actual date.
Is it possible to activate this field in order to modify the content?
Thanks and regards.
Raúl.

Hi All-
Though this is claimed to be standard in SRM 5.0 in the release notes, the Posting Date field is not displayed in the SRM Invoice Basic data screens or is not editable rather. We had the same issue and SAP created an OSS note for us.
The OSS Note number is OSS note 1082248.
Pls assign points for usefull answers !!

BAPI or FM to create Invoice in SRM , without reference to PO ?

Dear Colleagues,
We have a situation where we have to create invoices in SRM from a file from a legacy system, that means we have no POs in SRM.
Which process, BAPI or Function Module would you recommend me? Is it possible to create "standard" invoices in SRM with a BAPI, and have those invoices be displayed afterward in the standard SRM functionality/transactions, plus have a subsequent invoice created in the backend?
Will award point to helpful answers.
Many thanks,
David

Thanks for your help, but I still dont know which FM is best, or what is the difference.
Can i use this FM to post an invoice without reference to a PO? How do I fill/pass the vendor and item data? Do you have any example on how to pass the data to the FM?
Which FM are called by the system when a vendor creates a NON-PO Invoice? Any idea?
If I use the FM to transfer to backend, will the invoice go through all standard verifications in SRM and R/3?
Thanks again, regards
David

IDoc error M8(183) in posting invoice from SRM to ECC

Hi everybody,
I am posting invoice in SRM against GR done in ECC. But the corresponding IDoc is in error when it reaches ECC. I am using MM-SUS scenario with SRM7.0, PI7.0, ECC6.0. Message types used are InvoiceRequest_Out and INVOIC.INVOIC01.
1) Error message: "M8(183) : Delivery note/service entry sheet & & does not exist".
2) First I applied note 1063742, but it did not resolve the problem. When I went into further detail, I found that the XML payload generated for the invoice in SRM does not contain GR number of ECC, but the corresponding GR number generated in SRM is passed onto ECC.
3) This SRM GR number is available in field BELNR of IDoc segment E1EDP02 (segment 12).
My question is, how to enable the invoice generated in SRM to carry the ECC GR document number, so that the corresponding IDoc in ECC recognises the GR number against which it was made. Please let me know if any alternative exists, also.
regards,
biplab

Hi everyone,
Able to solve the problem by applying note 1344626 (GR based invoice not updated in backend PO).

Invoicing in SRM 5.0 - Mismatch between categories

Hi SRM-folks,
Im trying to enter a Service invoice with 3 positions in SRM 5.0
At checking the invoice before saving it, for the last two positions I get the error message:
"Product category in purchase order and invoice do not match "
I Checked the product category of the items and they do exist both in SRM as in the Backend.
I tried to enter the invoice in the backend via the trx MIRO and I managed to do that without problems!
The Product cat ID in the shopping cart is the same as in the invoice (for all of the three positions).
The Category GUIDs are corresponding to the Category ID in the COMM_CATEGORY Table in SRM.
What Im I doing wrong in this case? What do I have to check?
Thanks,
Aart

Hi Folks
We are working in SRM 7.0 EHP1 (Standalone Scenario) and facing a issue with Invoice. Most of the times we are able to post Invoices to the FI system but some times the Invoices are stuck with status Awaiting Approval.
Can you guys help me on the same if this is a bug or is there are some issues which can be fixed ?
Thanks
Ushir

Hi,
You can add the custom filed in invoice overview in the following manner:
1) Add required custom fields to the Standard Header structures u2018INCL_EEW_PD_HEADER_CSFu2019 and
INCL_EEW_PD_HEADER_CSF_INV
2) Create new entries in the view /SAPSRM/V_MDF_HC, for the Custom fields added to the standard structure
Mention overe there business object as Invoice
3) Enhance corresponding the webdyn pro component
Create new node in the respective context. Then create ui element in the view layout and bind this ui element with the created context node.
I am sure it will help you

but this functionality working fine in Quality and development system not in production !!

prasad.

HI,

If you change tax code at header level then you calculation will be according to that tax code ,check your tax value in header
once you check tax code in header level then why you want to change it in item level now ?
check tax calculation first it is correct or not .

Invoice payment status will update in SRM

Dear Experts,
I have done the invoice in SRM and invoice created in ECC and the same invoice number has been updated in SRM with status 'posted in the backend'.
for thi invoice, i have completed the payment. I would like to know whehter these status will be updated in SRM or not?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi
It is not possible to see, but there is a way. You need to check in ECC in FBL1N for this invoice for the invoice payment. and if you are confirm that no further invoice you need to tick final invoice posted in PO.
With this tick you can confirm the status of the payment.
