Automatic check for Final Invoice indicator in PO

[Former Member]

Hi All,

When we try to close work order, a warning message comes, " Purchase Order item -

---

of order ...----

---

still without final billing indicator." Though I understand that this is because of the 'Final Invoice' flag not checked on the PO under Invoice Tab. Is there a way for automatic check of Final Invoice?

Thanks

Hi Manoj

as far as Standard SAP, This indicator will be manually flagged during LIV.

Final invoice indicator

Indicates that the last invoice from a vendor has been received for an

item and/or that no further invoice is expected.

Use

The final invoice indicator serves as information for the applications

- Cash Management and Forecast

- Cash Budget Management

- Funds Management

If you set the final invoice indicator, purchase order commitments are

reset.

However, the final invoice indicator does not prevent further invoices

from being posted. Furthermore, it does not replace GR/IR account

maintenance in the event of a variance between GR quantity and invoice

quantity.

Examples

Purchase order: 100 pieces of material A at $10/piece

-> The PO commitment is automatically set to $1000.

Goods receipt: 80 pieces

Invoice for 60 pieces = $600

-> The purchase order commitment is automatically set to $400.

Invoice for 15 pieces = $150 - final invoice indicator set.

-> The purchase order commitment is automatically set to zero.

Since the final invoice indicator does not have any effect on the GR/IR

clearing account, you must clear the difference of 5 pieces ($50) on the

GR/IR clearing account if no further invoices are posted.
