Hi Gurus

While we are making payment through F-53 we are getting an error message "1 item(s) was/were not activated due to online payment blocku201D Message no. F5528.

Issue:

1. Amount is already due for payment.

2. Payment block is needed if the amount is not due.

3. Now we are manually remove payment block by using t code FB02.

How can we remove this payment block automatically if it is due for payment?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks and regards

Dear Friends

We are using FB02 for removing the payment block.

Example:

We are creating a vendor invoice on 01.02.2010 and terms of payment 30 days

so on 05.03.2010 it will be due for payment (Payment is making on 05.03 2010).

Invoice is crating by one user

Payment is done by another user.

While doing F-53, user is getting this error (even the invoice is due for payment) and this user is removing the payment block using T code FB02.

Now our Clients Requirement:

If the payment is due, then the system will allow (without using FB02)

If the payment is not due , System have to Throw Error message.

Their Argument is that what is the need of Payment block. Means we are creating terms of payment for 30 days, 45 days etc....

Two terms of payment is enough.

One for immediate payment without block and another with block.

Requirement: Is it possible that payment block will be removed automatically if it due for payment and other side if the payment is not due system should block.

Thanks and regards

It seems unnecessary to use both a due date and a block to determine when an invoice can be paid - as noted above, a block is typically used if you want to hold the invoice up to keep it out of standard processing.

I'd suggest the following might be suitable... First, have a look at the Business Transaction Event / Open FI exit (i.e. transaction FIBF) 00000950 "Clearing: Document Item Authorization Check". Within that logic you should be able to implement some ABAP to determine each open item's due date and thus provide a validation that prevents the user in F-53 from even seeing items that are not yet due for payment (OSS Note 961509 - "Customer-specific authorization check for selected items" also talks about this functionality).

If you think this enhancement meets your needs, then by implementing it you should be able to prevent the selection of not-yet-due items by the second user... so you will no longer need the process of blocking bythe first user and unblocking invoice items ... so the FB02 issue goes away.

Hi

Payment block comes from either master data or when gr parameters differs from ir parameters. For such documents you can modify by using fb02.

Dear,

There are lot of reasons for using the payment block, sometimes your purchase department asks to hold the payment for a quality check or damage etc. Payment block can applied in the vendor master XK03, that is in payment transactions or in OB27.

Here, you have blocks for change in the payment proposal, manual payment block and not changeable. Use the block as per your business requirement.
