BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE to create invoice from the PO number

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I used BAPI_PO_CREATE to create purchase order and i passed the PO number to another bapi BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE to create invoice. But the second bapi throwing an error saying PO not exist even though the PO was successfully created...

Kindly guide me to solve the problem..

cheers

If all these are happening in the same program, then its a timing issue.

After BAPI_PO_CREATE, call BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT and then finally call BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE after your create your Goods Issue as well.

Without Goods Issue, the invoice cannot be created.

If you still see the same error, introduce a time delay before call INVOICE BAPI using WAIT command.
