MM invoice verification against delivery with no Good Receipts - will it work ?

[pierrem7]

Dear all,

Let me quickly explained my issue.

We have moved to INcoterms FCA, meaning that property transfer is taken when goods are loaded at the vendor site.

No transportation module is implemented. We create an inbounds delivery when receiving info from carrier. And later on, we are receiving against it. Transport module is not implemented.

But we need to post invoice before the Goofs is physically received because of long transportation time.

My questions - I guess it is basic, I am not a MM expert - far from it -

1) Will it be possible to post the invoice against the delivery without the good being physically  received.

2) Property of the goods is not yet transfered before receiving - despite the incoterm- Well,  I guess so - how the financial posting will work when creating the invoice.

Many thanks for your help.

regards,

Pierre Mikael

May I know the business logic to make invoice against delivery ??

There is a chain PO-Delivery-GR-Invoice..

Its the standard chain...

You can also do GR after PO create or after delivery create or after GR...

Any time you can book the invoice..

But it should be an criteria..

PO is a legal document for vendor, when you will do invoice, PO will be must for the invoice, because only PO contain the all invoice and amount for vendor..

Thank tou for your answer.

This is driven by the Incoterms. With FCA, the ownership is transfered when the carrier is loading the Goods.

But physically, it will be received in3 to 6 weeks, I cannot do a GR, it will mess up planning.

BUt the property is transferred already. This is the reason why

1. we create Inbounds Delivery (Carrier loads the goods)

2. Invoice

3. GR when physically receiving the goods.

We have no transport management implemented. -

Therefore imagine I have a PO of 10, 5 are loaded by Carrier - delivery is created - Can I have Invoice verification on 5 only ?

Well, you can do invoice for 5 qty only...

In PO, untick the GR-Bsv IV, then go for MIRO...

You can see the blank amount and qty in MIRO, here you can enter the qty 5 and related amount..

Then you can post the invoice...

Hi,

   You cant post IR based on inbound delivery. If you want to post IR before GR, remove the GR based IV indicator from PO and do IR based on PO.

Many thanks for your answer.

But in this case, if I have

1. a PO of 10,

2. a delivery of 5 (which tells I have load 5 it is on the way, carrier is sending us this info)

3. I post against the delivery in MIRO

- only 5 will be accepted - Is that correct ?

You can not post invoice directly with reference to inbound delivery.Once you do goods receipt with reference to inbound delivery the delivery note field updated in Material document.Based on delivery note you can do Invoice.

As per my knowledge before goods receipt only option do invoice against Purchase order.

[pierrem7]

Well, in MIRO, I have the option to post against delivery ? But if I get you well, I MUST GR before invoicing ?

[former_member183424]

No.. Its not mandatory that you must GR before invoice...

And in standard, there are no option for inbound delivery in MIRO...

I think you mixed mixed the delivery note with delivery (Or may be your own development)

Hi Pierre

Have a look at the following KBAs
