Problem about release of blocked invoices automatically

Hello,
We have many blocked invoices against payment that come from I/R in MM.
The main reasons that they were blocked come from Quantity and Date difference.
We know that invoices with the blocking reason "quantity" or "date" are released automatically
if the blocking reason is no longer valid.
but in tcode "MR02" or "MRBR" we tried to release the automaticallym but it didn't work.
How come they were not released?
Do we have to release all of them manually?
Many thanks to help us.

Hi,
If that is the case then do not block invoices for blocking reason "quantity" or "date".. in customization..
Thx
Raju

  • 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?

    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?

In the output screen the system only displays the message " Blocking reason deleted for 1 item' But the system is not showing the invoice for wihch the blocking reason is deleted,
    Can anyone tell me the reason why it is not displaying the invoice. Is there any settings requried to display the invoice in the output?

  • Release MM blocked invoice (after adjustment MM)

    Hello,
    I am currently testing how I can release a blocked invoice with blocking indicator Blocked by SAP-MM.
    A blocking indicator R was set, because on PO level flag Goods receipt was enabled and no GR was performed yet.
    The invoice appeared in MRBR, so far so good.
    Then I performed a GR on that PO, so I assumed that the blocking indicator would disappear automatically, but that is not the case.
    I don't want to perform the follow-up manually, so I was wondering if I could use the system to check if all prerequisites are fulfilled for releasing the invoice automatically.
    Thank you for your help!

    Hi,
    Probably you need to check Invoice blocking config under SPRO-MM-LIV-Incoming Invoice, check the variances settings & upper/lower variances for blocking invoices. Usually this is done by FI so as to control variances in further payment release.
    For Auto release you can schedule the background run for MRBR with specific variant.
    thanks

  • Release of Blocked invoices

    MRBR is a transaction which is used for releasing blocked invoices.
    However, MRBR releases the entire items of an invoices.  In our case, for certain invoices, some portion is 'retention amount' which should not be paid to the vendors. 
    How can we achieve the release of blocked invoices without releasing the retention part ? (We cannot allow FB02 to remove the block from the items..)

    If you need to pay "Partial payment to the Vendor, there are two ways.
    1. F-58 or F-53, Manual payment - Partial or Residual
    2. OBB9, configure the Payment term with Instalment amount and pay it through F110
    Hope it  helps
    Thanks

    thanks for your response roaminggnome. I changed my password immediately after it happened and I have contacted i tunes to let them know of this dillemma.
    The I-tunes credit was a promotional thing by Apple to buy their laptop. So I didn't pay for the i-tunes credit in the first place. Do you think my bank will be able to reinburse Itunes credit then? I will ask support when they get back to me.

  • Release Credit Blocked SO Automatically

    Hi Expert,
    I've just changed the credit control setting in OVA8. Before this change, there are a lot of sales orders were being blocked due to the previous setting. After the changes done (change "Deviation in %" from 0% to 50% & change "Days oldest item" from 1 day to 2 days). There should have many blocked SOs which are not fulfils this new rule anymore.
    May I know any t-code/program can be run to automatically release those blocked SOs which are not fulfil the new rule after the changes done?
    Many thanks & regards,
    Poi Yoke

    Dear Aw Poi Yoke ,
    The list of sales order in VKM3 will be those which are blocked due to the current OVA8 setting.
    What you can do is run the credit re-organisation programs for those  sales order which were created before making the configuration changes. (you can get the list by considering the document creation date)
    Now check the programs
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/93/743861546011d1a7020000e829fd11/content.htm
    You will find the option of entering the document no in one of the above program.
    Do it and so the new check will be applicable for the sales orders already created before the configuration changes.
    Check in testing server and revert back.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Automatic release of Blocked Invoice by Doing Further GR

    I have the following Scenario:
    P.O is for 100 nos. GR is made against the P.O for Qty:50 nos. Invoice is made in MIRO for Qty:70 nos. Now the invoice is posted and is "Blocked for payment".
    To release this invoice, as per SAP documentation, the following are possible:
    <b>1. Posting a Credit Memo for the difference Qty of 20 nos
    2. Creating delivery for additional 20 nos.</b>
    In actual, in the first instance, the invoice gets released automatically in MRBR after posting the credit memo.
    However in second case, after doing MIGO for additional 20 nos, Invoice does not get released automatically.
    Can you throw some light on the "Delivery" option and Is there a configuration setting which can take care of this issue.
    Thanks
    Vinay & Sanjog

    Hi,
    If the "difference qty" comun is not getting updated then there is no difference qty and the invoice would NOT have been blocked due to a qty difference.
    The status of "fully delivered" is not relevant.
    If you have a PO for a qty of 100 , a GR of 100 but an invoice for 120. The status would be "fully delivered" but the invoice would be blocked due to a qty difference.
    Posting another receipt of 20 (providing the delivery tolerance allows it) would result in the invoice being released.
    I am sorry but the system appears to be doing what it should do.
    If the invoice was blocked and there was no qty difference displayed (and if the blocking flag was not highlighted in yellow) in MRBR, then there is NO qty difference and the block is due to something else (such as price etc.)
    If posting a further receipt has now cleared the invoice for payment then there WAS a qty block and the invoice qty must have been greater than the PO qty (the "fully delivered" status means nothing here, it just means that the delivery qty matches the PO qty, it does not relate to the invoiced qty.

  • Release for blocked invoices (Ref: Q4-6)

    Dear Sirs,
    After executing the u201CRelease for blocked invoicesu201D using transaction MRBR, the u201CManual Blocku201D indicator can be released in Invoice Header u2013 Payment tab. However, the indicator was still checked in Invoice Item(s). Even if I created an Invoice by setting the u201CManual Blocku201D in items only, the indicator was still checked after executing the u201CRelease for blocked invoicesu201D. Is it normal for the standard system ?
    Tks,
    KH Fong

    Dear Sirs,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Does it mean that theu201CManual Blocku201D indicator is still checked for the Item(s) even if I have executed theu201CRelease for blocked invoicesu201D using transaction MRBR ? (No matter the u201CManual Blocku201D indicator is set for both Header & Item(s), or just set for Item(s) only in the Invoice)
    Does it mean that the whole Invoice can be released for payment even if  theu201CManual Blocku201D indicator is still checked for the Item(s) after executing the MRBR ?
    Does it mean that setting theu201CManual Blocku201D indicator at Header Level is enough if I would like to block the whole Invoice ?
    Tks,

  • Releasing the blocked invoices entered through the FB60

    Hi all,
    The invoices that are entered through the transaction code FB60 are manually blocked for payment while entering the invoice. Is there a standard SAP transaction code to list these invoices and release similar to transaction MRBR for the invoices entered through the MIRO. Please advice how to achieve this, as this is a critical business requirement. Many thanks in advance
    Regards

    Hi,
    When you post invoice through fb60 which vendor you chossing for making invoicego to  that vendor master record and check if it is block for payment or not if it block for payment than remove block.

  • Release of Blocked Invoices - MR02

    Dear Gurus,
    I have four A/P documents that were blocked for payment, "R", however before I could remove the block, the A/P persons discovered they made an error and canceled/cleared the documents.  So, now they are no longer in "open items" but the block remains and they're showing up on my daily report.
    How can we remove the block?
    Vendor 111111  Doc 2222222222
    Thanks for your time and reply in advance.
    regards,
    Raj

    Hi,
    If the invoice is not showing up in MR02 then it looks like someone has manually changed the blocking flag?
    MR02 is designed for invoces blocked during invoice verification and that is why the selection screen defaults an R in the payment block field.
    If you are getting that message then it looks like someone has removed the R flag.
    Can you have a look at the invoice in SAP and let me know what the payment block flag is?
    I would guess that it has been changed rather than removed, because the report is thinking it is blocked and I would have expected (although it is an assumption) that this report uses the payment bl;ock flag to determine which invoices are blocked.
    When I know what payment block it has I may be able to help further.
    Cheers
