Release of FI Invoice

HI FI Expert,
I want to release a line item for payment using transaction code FB13. The Document > Release option is 'grey'. I don't think it's an authorization problem because I've got authorization all for the objects. Please help to resolve the issue. Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Prakash

Hi Prakash,
Could you please confirm that you don't have a true authorization error.  Run the tcode again and once you get that error, enter the following tcode "/n su53" .  This will display any details of an authorization data on the last tcode you ran.  If it says "the last authorization check was successful" then that confirms that it is not a "true" authorization error.  But if it shows more in the log, then you need to show the log to your security team to troubleshoot. 
Actually, if you get no other suggestions from this listserve, you could ask your security team to do a "TRACE" on your account while you are executing the tcode.  When you get the error, their TRACE logs could also give them more details of what is actually going on.
Hope that helps,
Cindy

  • 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?

  • Auto router release in AP Invoice Test Scenario

    Hi Gurus,
    Please guide me how to prepare test script for Auto router release in AP Invoice Test Scenario.
    Thanks for the Support.
    Regards,
    Bapu

    hi,
    It can be auto released only in the following case:
    Original PO - 500$
    When you have the IR for 1000$..
    case 1:
    You make the changes in the PO and give price as 1000$...
    Or...
    Case 2.. make the subsequent credit in the mean time for 500$..
    So after this when you visit the MRBR tcode, system will auto release it...and the reasons becomes invalid over a time period...

  • 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

  • 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

  • Error message from delivery release to sales invoice drawing of data

    cannot post parent item with child item from delivery receipt to sales invoice
    error message is ar invoice rows- warehouse code lino:0 ],'no matching records found "inventory log message"]
    any suggestions on the remedy for this?

    the Bom is sales and i've changed the warehouse code so that the parent item together with the child items would be posted from delivery note/release towards the sales invoice,i've tested it at their test database and works just fine without any errors popping out.
    ive changed specifically where they draw the child items--instead of DIY001,Ive changed it to warehouse Diy005 warehouse, while i did not changed the warehouse assigned for the parent which is coded as DIY001
    Thank you Nat for spending time to answer my query. ive got to test some more data if ever the changed of business partner name would have an effect with the transactions. the reason why i am testing it is that they have a same Bp partner code for two persons.

  • 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,

  • 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

    Hi Mohit
    Thanks for raising this query. It helped me to learn new things today. As far as your issue is concerned, I think it can be done by implementing BTE only and not through standard SAP configurations.
    Check the link below on the basis of which I drew my conclusions as above
    Probelm with configuration in OBWA/OBWJ | SCN
    Get help of ABAP or Workflow consultant to implement to meet your requirement too.
    Hope it helps

  • 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 strategy for Invoice

    Dear All,
    Can we have a Release strategy for the invoices ? Here my client wants to have approval for all the invoices irrespective of whether there is variation or not. They don't want to park & post option also.
    regds,
    CB

    Hi,
    For Inovices there is no release strategy but you can use
    If an invoice item containing a large amount is entered, it is advisable to initially block this invoice to check the amount, especially in the case of invoices that do not refer to a purchase order.
    In Customizing for Logistics Invoice Verification, you can define:
    Setting in Customizing for Logistics Invoice Verification
    If the invoiced amount should be checked then;
    Invoice Block>>> Item Amount Check>>> Activate Item Amount Check
    The purchase orders in which the amount should be checked in invoice items, depending on the item category and goods receipt indicator of the order item. then;
    Invoice Block >>> Item Amount Check >>> Set Item Amount Check
    The amount as of which an item should be blocked the ;
    Invoice Block >>>>Set Tolerance Limits.

  • 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.
