Purchase order / vendor invoice

[Former Member]

Hello,

does someone know whether there is a way to set a "vendor invoice lock" in a purchase order?

I'm looking for a way as when u set a delivery block in a customer order that the goods will not be delivered!

My case is that I order free of charge at the vendor because of warranty. The vendor sends an invoice which is not f.o.c.

Now I want to be sure that my accountant will not post the vendor invoice via MIRO without asking me

Can u help me?

Thanks in advance.

In this case you can create PO with FREE ITEM check box, so that there will not be any accounting document.

Thanks for your responses!!!

Normally the user will order f.o.c. at the vendor.

But what if the vendor first sends an invoice which is not f.o.c. and then a few days later he agrees to that guarantee request and releases a credit?

The problem with the lock in the p/o item is that it works fine within MIRO, but the user would not be able to do a MIGO, right?!

What is the correct way?

1.) order with f.o.c. item

2.) adjust the p/o item against the vendor order confirmation?

3.) do the MIGO

4.) do the MIRO with "Invoice" and set a payment block (which one?)

5.) remember somehow the credit request?

6.) do MIRO with "Subsequent credit" after the vendor agrees to the credit request?

Thanks in advance!

No idea?

set a lock for the item in ME22N

But even then the accountant will ask you why he cant post the invoice.

Further, he should see it in MIRO anyway that the order value is zero.
