Retention is not calculated in MIRO

[Former Member]

Dear experts,

I have activated retention at header level in my work order. The service based invoice indicator is not ticked in invoice tab. while doing MIRO the system is not calculating the retention amount. Please let me know if the invoice is not service based then what is the effect on retention calculation.

Thanks

Dear experts,

one more thing I want to add to my query is that I have removed the tick mark from service based invoice indicator for doing negative entry in service entry sheet. hence when I am going to do the miro for negative service entry sheet, the system is not calculating the retention but for service based invoices system is working fine. please suggest how to activate retention for negative service entry sheet.

Hi,

How and why you want negative service entry sheet creation.

If  service entry sheet created, you can delete or if service entry sheet released, you can revoke it and then delete it.

Dear Bijay Sir,

We are doing negative service entry in the below scenario :

Example :

Line          Service No.          Short Text               Quantity          Gross Price

10             STW-LABOR       Contract Labor          230                400

Suppose I have made service entry for 200 quantity for line item 10 and made invoice and payment has also been done to contractor in FI.

Later I realized that I supposed to certify 180 quantity in place of 200. I can not edit my service entry unless I reverse the payment and invoice that has already done.

In this case I will edit the quantity in work order from 230 to 200 as I can not make it 180, below GRN level. After editing the quantity in work order I will pass negative (-20)  qty for line item 10 in my next service entry and make invoice and payment so that my GRN Qty and Value will match with the invoice qty and value.

Hence for this negative service entry while doing MIRO the system is not picking the retention even though the retention is already activated in work order.

Hi,

You and your business realized too late as service are certified 180 quantity in place of 200 and also payment done.

As incorrect SES posted , invoice posted for SES and payment done.Now , go for followings:
1.Cancel payment document for service order with SES with 200 quantity
2.Reverse the invoice posted and then go for revoking the SES with 200 quantity
3.Post the corrected SES with 180 quantity
4.Re-post the invoice again with 180 quantity
5.Go for payment to vendor for service order with SES with 180 quantity

Refer how to cancel vendor payment-if wrongly paid

OR

As vendor send invoice for only  certified 180 quantity with a new price-You can go for Subsequent credit in t.code:MIRO

Dear Sir,

This is a construction company where supplier provides services along with material as per the engineering drawing. When the materials are received at site along with invoice copy at that time user is posting grn then invoice and then payment. later due to change in drawing the actual services performed are found less than the grn qty. in this case to match the grn qty to actual certified qty they are doing negative service entry.

Please let me know why system is not picking the retention for negative service entry at the time of MIRO.
