MIRO invoice for ERS Vendor

[Former Member]

Can an Invoice be posted manually for a P.O in which ERS is enabled and against an ERS vendor ?

Thanks

Hi Sridhar,

You need to ticke "No ERS" in info record. Then the Vendor material combination is not subjected to ERS settlement.

Hi Anand,

Many Thanks for your promt response. I will outline my problem here:

We are carrying out string testing for ERS scenarios: We have a P.O in which ERS is enabled and the Vendor is also ERS enabled. (No ERS option is not ticked in Purch Info Record). MRRL transaction also works fine.

As per my understanding, the system should not allow posting of invoice in MIRO with reference to the ERS Purch order. But I am able to post the invoice in MIRO.

I wanted to know if this is allowed in SAP normally is there something wrong with the configuration/ can the manual option be disabled for ERS vendor settlements?

Thanks

Hi Sridhar,

This is Std. SAP Functionality.

If ERS enabled, you will get following msg during invoice verification

Evaluated receipt settlement is active for purchase order XXXXXXXXXX

Message no. M8225

If you don't want this in your system, then convert message M8225 into Error in your customization.

Goto transaction code OMRM and then insert above message number and enter E (error) for Online as well as for Batchinput)

Bye,

Hi,

There is nothing wrong.

If you run the ERS settlement program after the MIRO you will find that this will NOT create a duplicate payment.

If by doing this you are having a problem, then let us know and we will see what we can do to help.

If you are just curious as to whether this is correct or not then it is perfectly OK to post an invoice for an ERS PO. If this happens AFTER the settlement then the invoice would be blocked for payment. If it happens BEFORE the settlement has been run then it would NOT be blocked for payment (GR qty equals Inv qty) but the settlement program should then NOT create a payment.

You can decide to stop this from happening by configuring the message to E or leave it as W and continue.
