Vendor Invoice Verification

How does an invoice verification process happen in SAP FI and what are all the steps?

Hi Swapnil,
Its as simple:
1) For PO based invoice when the accountant/supply guy does invoice booking through MIRO he would check that the invoice quantity and rate etc match the PO quantiy and rate. So this is called invoice verification and posting.
2) For non-PO based invoice what would you verify? It is just booking.

PO block in vendors invoice verification

Hi all,
whenever we execute an invoice verification selecting by vendor, any PO of this vendor results blocked for modification .
Even if we de-select the position, ALL PO are blocked.
Is there any way round this, still using the vendor for Invoice verification ? (we usually have a very long list of PO so the vendor is a really good parameter)
Thanks a lot in advance
Cheers

Automatic vendor invoice verification

Dear all,
We have a scenario where in the client wants the payment to done as soon as GRN is done. Wanted to know is it possible in SAP to post the vendor invoice in background automatically on the basis for GRN.

mahesh.

Hi
You can perform an ERS, once the GR is dopne if you run this transaction the Vendor settlement is carried out.

Vendor Invoice verification payment terms

Hi Experts,
PO is having one item with Gross price,freight .
Freight vendor is different from main vendor.
Main vendor-PAYMENT TERMS-1% discount- 5 days
Freight vendor--PAYMENT TERMS- pay immidiatly
After making GRN and when i tried to post invoice in MIRO
for freight vendor,system is not calculating as per payment terms of freight vendor and showing 1%discount as in main vendor payment terms
Let me know how system can calculate freight value with out discount .
I tried simuating invoice with PO reference,Vendor reference also in MIRO.
Thanks ,
Rama

Hi
Payment terms are defined in the PO at header level and hence the system takes the payment terms of the regular vendor for the freight vendor also.
Check whether payment terms can be given at item level.
If not possible then change the payment terms for the freight vendor manually while doing MIRO .
while doing MIRO select PO reference and also planned delivery costs selection.

Inbound idoc failure(vendor invoice not posted)

Hi All,
we have two SAP systems. SAP A and SAP B.
SAP A is the vendor for SAP B system we have created a sales order/delivery/out bound invoice in SAP A system.The sales order has BOM material with main item and sub items. We have the same material master data and BOM master data in system A and system B since we are following split architecture.
The outbound invoice(with main and sub item) in system A has generated an outbound idoc and the idoc has gone to SAP
system B. There are the usual segments like E1EDP01 for main item and another E1EDp01 for the sub itmes in the outbound
idoc.The message type is INVOIC and basic type INVOIC02 with no extension.
In system B, the inbound idoc (coming from system A) has failed giving the error message "higher level items not allowed". The
segment E1EDP01 for sub item is highlighted in red ! basically the inbound idoc in sap system B is posting a vendor
invoice since the inbound idoc in B is calling the FM IDOC_INPUT_INVOIC_MRM... I think this is doing vendor invoice
verification.
I have checked in system A, all is ok and the outbound idoc is ok but the issue is in sap system B, the inbound idoc has failed
with message "higher level items not allowed". The segment E1EDP01 for sub item is highlighted in red in inbound idoc in
system B. The segments are the same for inbound idoc in B and outbound idoc in A.
Can someone pls tell what is wrong in system B.(config or data issue) as we are managing both systems.
regds

Hi,
I am not sure if we can send both main and sub items thorugh inbound invocie idoc to create vendor invoice.
you can try to post the idoc by removing main items from the IDoc in WE19.
one more thing you should aware is you are not allowed to to create two E1EDP01 segements for the same PO item(E1EDP02).
check this as well.
Regds,

I do not see any reason why you would need to use COND_A04 if COND_A01 is working.
What if you could get COND_A04 to post and you would face the same result as in COND_A01?
If SAP does not check wrong values, then you have to do it yourself, or you report an incident at SAP (after you have searched for OSS notes that may have fixed this error already)
For example OSS Note 1169998 - IDoc: KONP-LIFNR values not checked
fixed a situation where the vendor number was not validated.

Control invoice verification after quality inspection

Dear all,
I want to restrict vendor invoice verification to be done after quality notification, I set QM control key 0007: Del. release, invoice block in the QM view of material master, then I post GR for a PO with inspection lot created, then I did invoice verification through MIRO it was successful without even a warning message.
Does anybody know how to control this?
Thx
Danny

Hi Danny,
MIRO will be processed, but you will get message as "Blocked for Payment". You can see the reason for block and clear the block in MRBR. Ensure that in PO indicator GR-Based Invoice Verification is flagged.
For more details Block the payment if inspection lot is not cleared by quality
Thanks & Regards,

Query on Procurement and Invoice Verification for Purchase Scheme by Vendor

Dears,
This is K.Hari Hara Ganesh.
I have a query.
Scenario
Vendor commits us if the Purchasing Qty is 200 Kgs for a Material, then 10 Kgs will be given Free of Cost. If it is lesser than 200, no free.
Once received, my Stock should be updated for 210 Kgs, wheras I have to pay the Vendor for 200 Kgs.
How this scenario is handled in SAP ?
If anybody can give me Step by Step creation till Configuration, Master Maintenance, PO, GR, Invoice Verification and Payment by explanation or screen shots, it will be helpful for me.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
K.Hari Hara Ganesh

Dear Nisha,
Thank you very much for the immediate response.
You have asked me to create 2 line items.
Still I have some doubts
1. Is it possible to create the same Material as 2 line items, first line with 200 Kgs and the second line with 10 Kgs for the same Material.
2. Also, my Purchase Tolerance is 2 %, which means for the PO Qty 200 Kgs, I should not accept more than 204 Kgs (200 + 4)
3. Since the 10 Kgs is the scheme given by the Vendor, my system should accept 210 Kgs, irrespective of my Purchase Toleranace.
I will be very happy, if I receive the solution for this scenario too.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
K.Hari Hara Ganesh

Vendor invoice and logistic invoice verification ?

Good morning Guru,
What is the difference between "vendor invoice" in accounting module and "logistic invoice verification" in MM module ?
I know logistic invoice verification to validate between po, gr and invoice, but what vendor invoice for ?
Thank's

Hi
Accounting-wise both has the same result as in both the scenarios you can debit expense and credit vendor. The advantage of Logistics Invoice Verification over Vendor Invoice is, in Logistics Invoice verification, we have three way matching of documents ie PO,GR and Invoice. So if there is any mismatch between these, the invoice will get blocked for payment. Also it checks for accuracy between PO and invoice and GR and invoice, so that the expenses are accounted accurately and price diff account also effected appropriately.
In Vendor invoice booking, it is just like your normal journal entry and so it has not got that much authenticity over the correctness of transactions. In vendor invoice booking, there is every possibility of duplicate booking of invoice, whereas in LIV, the invoice will get blocked for payment.
Hope it is clear.

K Lakshmanan

Vendor Consignment Settlement - Invoice verification - MRKO

Hello All,
Can someone please let me know what I am missing in configuration, because when I try to settle via MRKO transaction get the message below. I have gone through configuration trying to figure out what I have missed. Since I don't see "settled" in the information text field it does not let me print any invoices. Just to let you guys know our system had all the KONS configuration deleted out. So I had copy them from our client 000. Please advise what am I missing. Thank you all for your help.
I get this message:
Consignmnt settlement: No message was found for partner 401170/compny code 1001
Message no. M8443
Diagnosis
You are settling consignment or pipeline liabilities for vendor 1001 in company code 401170. For the information of the vendor, a document is created using the message determination function.
System Response
If no message record was found for a partner because of the message control settings, meaning that no output message can be created, no invoice documents are created.
Procedure
In Customizing for Invoice Verification, check that the data for message determination has been maintained in such a way that an output message can be created for the vendors in the invoice document.
Regards,
Nav

Hello All,
I have setup output type KONS in MRM1 - Key combination as CoCode, Vendor, yet I am still experiencing problems. Do I need to modify MR_PRINT FORM or the Program "RM08NAST" I have gone through these configurations to setup KONS output type since it was not in our sandbox system.
Maintain Message Types
Maintain Message Schemas
Maintain Conditions - which is MRM1
Am I am missing something else?

GR for import Vendor before Invoice verification of Customs clearing agent

Dear MM Gurus,
I have a client requirement as follows,
Its a Import purchase with Batch management
The Import PO is created without taxes because the client does not know the exact taxes applicable.
The client gets invoice from the vendor only after 7 days after he receives the material.
But they want to do GR for the material as they need the material urgently for their production before doing Invoice verification for the customs clearing agent.
In such a scenario how to go about with invoicing for the clearing agent and subsequent posting of taxes .
Is there any standard procedure available or any round about solutions or user exits. Your suggestions and solutions will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Arul.

You can do GR and then do the MIRO for planned delivery costs i,e all the taxes to be paid to customs and then do MIRO for the cost of materials

Invoice verification - vendor

Hello Sap Guys!
Is there some configuration in SAP that carries through the verification of the Vendor of the PO and the Vendor of the invoice (MIRO). At the moment of emission of MIRO?
Thanks,
Gustavo

Hi Gustavo,
Yes, there is a configuration is required to verify the Invoices from Vendor is mentioned in below:
Use the path:
      IMG Display--> MM --> Logistic Invoice Verification --> Incoming Invoice -->
      Set Check for Duplicate Invoice (Screen appears as mentioned in below combination, you need to flag the checkboxes):
   Co.Code: Check Co.Code Check Reference Check Invoice Date
then
     you can stop the invoice entering double time.
Or
     If you want to check for duble /duplicate invoice, only for the perticular vendor:
then
you have to set the flag/indicator for Check duble Invoice (which is in payment data in the screen of Payment transactions of Company code data of Vendor master, this is specific to vendor)
hope it will clarify your query,
reward, if it solves,
Regards,
Srinu.K

Invoice Verification for Capital PO with Vendor (alternate Payee)

Hi all,
I want to do Invoice verification for capital PO where the payment to the vendor A is made by vendor B ( Alternate payer).
I have created new partner role and given Vendor B as Alternate Payer in PO.
PR, PO with Account Assignment category "A". GR done.
My question is : I need to do Invoice Verification.
Option A :verify the Invoice of Vendor A.
Option B : verify in Hardcopy and hand over it to Vendor B for making immediate payment. Since I need to pay Vendor B, I planned to change the name of the vendor in Detail tab as Vendor B. In this way, my payment processing is being done for Vendor B.
Please let me know which option is right. Please suggest if there are other ways of doing this.
Since Vendor B will take the Asset and lease it to me and will make the payment to Vendor A immediately. I want to pay Vendor B in installments.
Due to some technical reasons, I am not able to do MIRO ( It says short dump).
Hence, I am not able to try successfully in Dev server.
regards
Partha

Hi Mr.Patel
