Purchasing Accruals on Closed Purchase Orders

I am having an issue with Purchasing accruals being performed on a closed purchase order. The accrual does not appear in the Uninvoiced Transactions Register, but is accrued in the Purchasing journal entry nonetheless. The purchase order is "closed". I am trying to figure out why the amount is being accrued and how to stop the accrual. Anyone have any ideas? Is this a bug or should I try to "Finally Close" the PO?
I also noticed that when this PO accrued in the first month, there were two accrual lines for the purchase order. One had a correct accrual of $67.20 and then there was a second line of $14.70 that was accrued for the PO. The $14.70 is the amount that has been continuing to accrue even though the PO has been "closed".
This is in version 11.5.
Thank you,
Erik

Here are the details of the PO:
Quantity = 1
Qty Rec'd = 1
Qty Billed = 1
Qty Cancelled = 1
Cancelled (flag) = No flag
Hi Erik,
interesting case ! Please note above. You have mentioned "Qty Cancelled = 1", is it a typo?
Assuming that it is a typo error, I don't think finally closing it will solve the problem.
Apart from quantity difference in received vs. billing there may be other cases like incorrect PO or invoice unit price, supplier billing discrepancies (since you have mentioned billing was in installments).
I'll suggest the following checks first before taking any action. Please test in a cloned instance first
- Run "Accrual Reconciliation Report" / "Accrual Rebuild Reconciliation Report" and check what is coming ... do you see the problematic entry
- Check whether there are any other reasons apart from quantity received vs. invoiced mismatch
- Try Accrual Write-Off option in Purchasing to clear that entry (refer PO
- Pass a manual journal entry in GL
For the last 2 steps consult with finance guys.
You can use Accrual Write Off Report as reference for manual journal entry in GL.
Once you are satisfied with the results, apply the solution in production with approval from finance.
Another option could be to use a "dummy" invoice to match the remaining amount.
Please let me know the results.
Good luck!
Thanks

  • PO Accruals and closing Purchasing periods

    Hi, can anybody confirm how many purchasing periods should be open at any one time. We are having a problem with the accruals and I am trying to understand the correct procedure for re-setting the purchasing accruals. I am aware that by closing the purchasing period you re-set the previously accrued receipts. Does it matter if I have periods 8,9,10 open and then close period 8 before opening period 11 to re-set the accruals.
    Thanks
    Keith

    If you are asking the best practice, then here it is.
    Ideally Inventory & Purchasing periods should be closed very month.
    So only one "should" be open.
    Thanks & Regards

  • HOW WE FIND OUT OPEN PURCHASE ORDER AND CLOSED PURCHASE IN THE TABLE?

    HI,
    PLZZ HELP ME.
    what are fields names for open purchase order and closed purchase order
    thanks

    Hi param,
    Go to mseg table, pass the purchase order number and purchase order item. if the mseg-menge = ekpo-menge for the corresponding purchase order then consider the purchase order is close, else it is still open. even check if the entries are not there for corresponding purchase order in mseg table then also it is open.
    select mblnr zeile matnr menge from mseg into it_mseg where ebeln = it_ekko-ebeln
    and    ebelp = it_ekpo-ebeln.
    if sy-subrc <> 0.
    then consider the purchase order is open.
    This is the first case.
    even u can consider like this
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    if it_ekpo-menge > it_mseg-menge.
    then also the purchase order is open.

  • Accrual generates a purchase price variance

    When receiving an invoice for a material that requires the accrual of use tax, the accrual generates a purchase price variance, rather than generating an expense related to the material. Is it standard for SAP?

    Purchase price variance is always created for the price ordered with the vendor and the standard price of the material in its master.
    For example the material price is $ 12 ($ 10  base price + $ 2 for freight ) (Freight accrual is maintained through MEK1 transaction)
    We place an order with vendor $11.
    The entry will be
    Material Dr. 12
    PPV    Dr. 1
      GR/IR        Cr 11
      Freight Accrual  Cr 2.

  • Purchase items report for sales orders - very important

    Hi Folks,
    Could you please guide me on how to create a report of "items purchased" for a particular "sales order". if i am able to include various fields of items purchased, like....quantity, item description, vendor name, item price, etc., it will be very useful.
    This report is required for a client, who assembles machines in a "make to order" scenario, and most of the BOM child items are "purchase items".

    Hello Krishna,
    Few things to note:
    Is the PO created from the SO.  Is YES, then you could use the base document ref at the POR1 table.
    OR
    Are the BOM components defined with a default vendor in the Item Master and if YES are the components always purchased from the same vendor.
    I am trying to see how to establish the relationship of the items between the PO and SO.
    Please give me the details and I could guide you further
    Thanks

  • Badi for purchase requisition and stock transfer order

    Hi,
    Could anybody please tell the BADI to update the item details (dates etc) in the 'Purchase requisition' and stock transfer orders.
    I could find ME_PROCESS_REQ etc but could not locate the methods to modify the item level data.
    Thanks & regards,
    Ravish

    Hi,
    You can use the same badi which you found out.
    ME_PROCESS_REQ.
    In that there is a method process_item.
    There you can get the line items of the PR.
    Then in the POST method you can do the stock transfer .
    In the check method also you can check the entire process of PR.
    With Regards,

  • Several purchase requsitions from one sales order

    Hi,
    I am using item category TAB to create a purchase requsition from a sales order, this works fine.
    What I really want to do is to create one purchase requsition for each condition type of a special kind from the TAB position in the sales order.
    Another possibility is to create several purchase orders from one purchase requsition, split on the earlier mentioned condition types. In any case, the end result should be several POs from one SO, split on condition types.
    Can this be done in config or do you have a suitable user-exit for me?
    Thanks in advance!
    Best Regards

    HI,
    The Cost Center Determination settings is in OVF3, the standard works only at the header level though, so it would not work if cost center is needed on the line item.
    For this case I suggest to try from CO view:
    A material is linked to a profit center. From this profit center you can determine a cost center using txn OKB9
    In combination with the material's account assignment field and account determination customizing, an alternate revenue account can be determined for this material. ("Normal" revenue accounts are to be used in combination with CO-PA).
    If this account is a cost element with category type "1" you need the entries in OKB9.
    Hope this help!
    Regards!

  • Deletion Purchase requisition created by sales orders

    Hi gurus,
    in my SAP system there are purchase requisition created by schedule line from sales orders. For different reasons the sales orders were deliveried and billed with stock free and not with customer stock.
    When I try delete de purchase requisition, because the sales order is completed, the system alarms a message that is not posible to delete in purchase requisition else in sales order. But the sales order is completed and we don't touch it.
    Any idea to delete this purchase requisitions?
    Thank you, I will revvard all answers..

    Hi ,
    We can not delete the purchase requisition if there is any subsequesnt documents created against this.
    If you want to delete the same then reverse the delivery then delete the delivery and then delete the purchase requisition by using the guide lines given in below path.

    Hi Mancho ,
    Try to run the program BANF_OHNE_KDAUF in Transaction SE38 and delete the PR.
    The other way would be to change the item category in Sales Order - Line Item so that no PR is generated.But in this case i doubt whether system permits u to change the Item category as u had completed the subsequent process.Just check it.
    Unfortunately currently i am not at my system to check the same.

  • Purchase Reqs created through work orders

    Currently when I attach a non-stock item into a work order it create a purchase req. The purchase req is automatically released, or is released when the work order is. The problem is that we have a release strategy that we must follow here at my company. When the Reg is automatically release it does not follow this strategy.
    Is there a way that i could turn off this functionality, and have those req follow our standard release strategy.

    Hello!
    If you don't want to convert PR into PO, then why you are creating it. There can be two cases:
    1. You want to create PR but don't want the material right now. In that case change the delivery date. 
    2. You don't want to do anything now. You want material after 6 months, only you want is to create a maintenanc eorder. In
    that case you can enter the material nad service on ly at the time of requirement.
    You can talk to MM consultant also you can put control this by release strategy also.
    Is there any other case that you are facing. Please discuss.

  • Flag purchase requisition as closed automatically

    Hi,
    I'd like to flag a purchase requisition as closed automatically when it is created with reference of a purchase requisition. I'd like to know if there's any customizing point in which I can customize this action.
    Thanks in advance,
    Gerard

    If you are using ME59N transaction to create the PO then you can automatically set the flag reqs closed.
    On ME59N screen you will see the field called  set reqs to closed.............here you can select your indicator and system will close the reqs which all are converted on POs
