Post blocked invoices

I have configured the system to post invoices and everything is working fine. For invoices with no PO reference we will like to block those invoices in ECC and will like to let AP guys release the payment. How can we achieve that.

  • MIRO Posting - Block invoices due to Tolerence Key BR

    Hi Gurus,
    I am testing a new scenario in Invoice Tolerence Limits. I need to create a scenario for Invoice getting blocked due to tolerence key "BR". I am able to block the invoices but i am not sure that it is getting blocked due to the tolerence key BR (Percenatge OPUn variance)
    Could anybody can throw some light on how to find that it is getting blocked for BR or please tell me how to test this scenario.
    Thanks in Advance.
    with Regards,
    Saakithyan

    Hi,
    BR: Percentage OPUn variance (IR before GR)
    The system calculates the percentage variance between the following ratios: quantity invoiced in order price quantity units : quantity invoiced in order units and quantity ordered in order price quantity units : quantity ordered in order units. The system compares the variance with the upper and lower percentage tolerance limits.
    Example:
    PO         100 KG (order unit)   ->     1 PC (order price unit)
    Invoice    80 KG                     ->     1 PC
    1PC / 80 KG               1 PC / 100 KG (base)
    80%                          100 %
       -> this means 20% variance
    Please refer this link which explains the tolerance Key

  • How to block invoice posting for quality reasons

    how to block invoice posting for quality reasons.For example while doing  Goods receipt  the material is  posted to quality inspection stock. Then the material is rejected for some reasons. Once the decision is made then the  standard system allows to post invoice. But I want to restrict invoice posting once the material is rejected for quality reasons.

    posting of invoice is always allowed, the only thing you can restrict with customizing of QM in Procurement is the payment.
    if you want to block invoice posting, then you have to control this in a user exit.

  • Posting block to invoice

    Hi
    Please tell me what happens if i block the invoice for posting to accounting?
    what are the consequences?
    from when the payment terms will be calculated is it from the date of invoice or the day when i release to accounting
    regards

    When you mark the check box for Posting block in IMG screen of billing type, system neither creates any accounting document nor there is any posting in FI. This practice is mostly followed in case of Pro forma invoice.
    In that case if you want to release the document to accounting, go to VF02 and in the menu Billing Document click on Release to Accounting. This will create accounting document in FI along with necessary GL postings.
    So the payment terms will be calculated based on this posting date (date on which accounting doc. is created) and not on the billing date, if posting block check box is activated. And if posting date is selected in OBB8 as default for baseline date. That setting is done in OBB8.

  • How to block invoice posting more than the GR quantity

    Dear Experts,
    While trying to do MIRO with more than the PO/GR quantity system is accepting both increase in qty and value with out any tolerance limit.
    How to block, so that system should not allow to do MIRO more than the GR quantity.
    Regards,
    Alok

    Hi,
    System will by default block the payment, when it is not matching with the PO/GR value.
    then you have to go transcation code MRBR - Release Blocked Invoices. so that you can make the payment for these invoices.
    system will give you the message before saving, if you want an error message then go to oba5 tcode and change the message in to error, then if the Amount is not matching with the PO/GR value then the system will through error.

  • Error Message M8 534 when posting vendor invoice

    Hello Guru's!
    My client has a BSP application that the purchasers are using to approve and post vendor invoices.
    When the user is approving the invoice, we have a WF setup to automatically post the invoice to FI.
    We're using standard SAP functionality. BUS2081, method PreliminaryPost.
    First, this method is reading the preliminary invoice using method MRM_INVOIC_READ, then it goes on to try to post the invoice, using MRM_PARKED_INVOICE_POST.
    In about 50% of the approvals, the invoice is posted to FI but the other 50% kicks out with a message M8 534 - Balance not zero: &  debits: &  credits: &.
    Then the system is setup to generate a new WI in order to post the invoice manually.
    The issue, is that before the method PreliminaryPost is carried out, there is a check online to make sure the document ís OK.
    So, i know that there is no balance on the document, and it should be ok to post.
    This issue arised recently after my client went through an upgrade from ECC 5 to ECC 6.
    I have seearched OSS for notes, adn related notes are implemented.
    Any thoughts on this
    Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
    Lars

    The functions that i'm using are SAP developed functions and used by the bapi 'BAPI_INCOMING_INVOICE'
    However, i found out from SAP that these functions are only supported from SAP using 3 standard workflows.
    WS20000397 Release of invoice blocked due to price
    WS20001003 Parking: Complete invoice
    WS20001004 Parking: Release complete invoice documents
    They hinted that i should try the function MRM_DBTAB_REFRESH.
    Havent had time to try this yet, but will do, soon.

  • Payment Term - Blocked Invoice

    Hi all,
    I am a beginner in SAP. For a subcontractor (with vendor and customer views created), the payment term used is 0004 (Due at month end).
    I received an invoice, and recorded it using MIRO. The invoice is then blocked for payment.
    1. May I know if this is due to the payment term?
    2. I know I can unblock it using MRBR. But I like to know if the system will automatically unblock it at month end, or do I have to unblock it manually?
    I will appreciate your help! Thanks
    Cheers,
    starrysky

    Execute the transaction OBB8 and check for the payment term that is getting blocked at the time of posting the invoice .
    In OBB8 check the block key in the relevant payment term for the same .
    You can also remove the payment block by changing the document in FB02 .
    Else you can also unblock by using the T code MRBR .
    Cheers ,

  • Block  invoices from open item clearing F-32

    Dear folks,
    We have a requirement where blocked customer invoices (blocked for payment), should not be:
    1) available for posting payments in F-28.
    2) available for open item clearing down payments in F-32.
    The first one is achievable through "Release for payment" Payment block configuration where  "block manual payments" is checked. Can anyone tell me how to achieve my 2nd requirement. I believe that as per business process, if an invoice is blocked for payment, it is only logical that the invoice should be blocked from clearing against down payment.
    Please suggest configurations/enhancements/user exits for the 2nd requirement.
    Any suggestions are welcome.
    Thanks in advance,
    NK

    Whilst the invoice is blocked you can still clear it, as a user might want to clear it and then re post the invoice.
    The only way to stop the line being used in F-32 is to have an open payment run against the line - something I would not recommend.

  • Automatic release of blocked Invoices

    Note - Posted this qns in Financial forum & the user suggested to post the same question in this forum.
    Hi All,
    Scenario - A PO is placed with GR based IV unchecked. The vendor is sending the material & invoice to us. But the material is to arrive from overseas & hence there is a delay, but in the meantime i have posted the invoice in the system & the system blocks this invoice. I can check the blocked invoices in MRBR. At the moment to release it, i would have to use transaction MRBR, but I would like to know is there anyway, that the system can be configured to automatically release this blocked invoice, once the GR for that material is done, without me having to use any t-code?
    Vivek

    Hi Steve,
       There are 3 blocking reasons in MRBR,
    1. Blocked due to variances
    2. Manual Payment Block
    3. Stochastically blocked
       In this case, what is the reason for blocking?. If it is reason 1, then if i schedule a MRBR with automatic release, then would it release all those invoices as well which have been blocked due to price variation? or would it only release those Invoices which have been blocked due to non-receipt of GR?
       Also would like to know, is there anything in customizing, where i can define, say if the Purchase Order has got a Shipping Notification control key entered, then release this invoice?
       In customizing Financial Accouting -> Accounts Receivable & Accnts Payable -> Business Transaction -> Release payment
        Would this be of any help to me for resolving the issue at hand?

  • Purchase Order Allowed to Modify After Material Posting and Invoice

    Hi Experts,
    Why do SAP allows the scenario to change the Purchase Order once Material Document is posted and Invoice is Created unlik Sales Order? Do we have any business scenarios reagarding allowing the PO change?
    Thanks for the Clarification. Hopefully I will be enlightened by SAP's behavior in the Purchasing Process.

    Hi Cecilio,
    PO is changable even after GR and IR has been completed. If the invoice has been received or the goods have been paid for, and your intended change affects the price, the change will be ineffective.
    Please refer to the Online documentation, MM Purchasing -> Purchase Orders -> Changing, Cancelling, and Blocking Purchase Orders.
    Also if you want to delete the PO, when all the procurement process is finished, it must be possible to delete the PO item for archiving purpose for example.
    You can see the on-line help on that matter:
    "You cancel items in a purchase order by deleting them. Please note that an item may only be deleted if it is closed (that is
    to say , there is no outstanding quantity to be delivered or invoiced). Items are regarded as closed if, for example:
    · the ordered quantity (or more) has already been delivered
    · the ordered quantity has been invoiced in full
    · no related follow-on processes (such as reservations) are active
      in the stystem."
    Hope this can help

  • Blocked Invoice & Parked Invoice

    Hi All
    Can someone explain to me what is the meaning of Blocked Invoice and Parked Invoice?
    Thanks
    John

    Hi,
    Parked Invoice is an incompleted invoice which can be completed later.  A Parked invoice is an invoice which has been entered ( usually an incomplete one ) but is yet to be posted in your books so as to have an accounting impact. Therefore, parked invoices are incomplete invoices which do not affect the profit and loss account and balance sheet.
    blocked invoice is already accounted in full and is a part of your financial books. But the invoice has been blocked for certain
    activities. The invoice might have been blocked for payment ( perhaps , owing to a dispute or so ) or it might have been blocked from dunning ( though it is an over due customer invoice, you have decided not to send an overdue dunning reminder letter ) or
    an invoice blocked due to any variances or other factors (date variance, quantity variance, price variance)
    Therefore , parked invoices are incomplete pending accounting whereas blocked invoices are fully accounted invoices subsequently blocked for some activities such as payment/dunning. etc. I hop ethis will resolve your issue. Thanking you.

  • Parked and Blocked Invoice

    Hi Gurus,
    What is the difference between parked and blocked invoice? Under what situations we go for parked invoices and under what situations for blocked invoices? When there is a quantity and price variance, invoice gets blocked. Can we go for parked invoice in case of quantity and price variance? A detailed explaination will be really helpful.
    Thanks,
    Kumar

    HI,
    Parked Invoices
    You can park invoices or credit memos. This means that you enter the invoice data or credit memo data in the system and save it in a document, but the system does not post this invoice initially.
    You can change a parked document as often as you wish, for example, by adding or correcting data. The changes are logged. When you have finished changing the document, you can post the parked document. Only when you post an invoice or credit memo, does the system carry out the normal account movements and make the necessary updates.
    To park a document, choose Logistics Invoice Verification -- Document Entry -- Park Invoice
    Blocked Invoices
    You can block an invoice manually. You have two options for doing this when you enter the invoice:
    You can block an invoice by entering an R in the field Payment block in the document header data.
    You can block an item by selecting the Ma (manual blocking reason) field in the item list. When you post the invoice, the system automatically sets an R in the field Payment block in the vendor line of the accounting document. Manually blocked items are given the blocking reason Manual block (M).
    Logistics Invoice Verification -- Further processing -- Release invoices
    Specify the Selection of blocked invoices
    Select the type of Processing
    Select a Blocking procedure
    Exceute
    Thanks & Regards,
    Kiran

  • 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.

  • Blocked Invoices in Table VFX3 KNVV table ?

    Hi All,
    Can someone please tell me how i can realease a blocked invoice in table VFX3 KNVV ?
    Thank you
    Priya
    Points will be assigned

    Without more information that is a difficult question to answer.  There are mulriple reasons why an invoice may have been blocked for posting?
    I am assuming that you are meaning the transaction VFX3 or are you meaning table KNVV.
    The transaction VFX3 is traditionally used to clear up all billing blocks.  In order to clear a blocked invoice, you would highlight the specific row for that invoice and hit the flag icon to release.  There may still be issues why it is blocked and you may have to go back a step to unblock.  If you would like to share more information, I would be happy to help.
