docnum in comments field of invoice

[former_member208987]

Hi,

I use FMS Select $[OINV.DOCNUM] in comments , OINV with auto refresh on BP code.

Problem is that the value is not copied directly into the comments field when generating the invoice with the DGW.

If i look in the invoice i always need to refresh the comments field an then it's oke in the database.

Is there a manor/way of doing this automatically by using the transaction notification in SAP DB? or something else??

Thx

Mark

Dear,

You need to do it using transaction notification procedure or try to autorefresh on Document total.

Hi Mark,

We are running 2007A and our Payment Wizard does not work that way.

It will not work to try and put the A/R Invoice number in the remarks field, because it can be wrong after you have added the document. the reason is that the document number ONLY exist in the table AFTER you have added it. Before you added the number, it ONLY exists on the screen.

Therefor the Formatted Search will ONLY work if only ONE person is adding Invoices.

If more than one person is adding documents, there you have 2 ways options:

1) Write an Alert when the 2 fields differ and manually update the differences.

or

2) Develop an Add-on that automatically does it.

Kind regards

Hi Mark,

What is the reason why the document number also must appear in the comments field? It seems like a duplication of information and does not make sense?

Hi Carin,

Since SAP 2007A uses that field in the payment wizard for collection autorisation instead of the the docnum field.
