Releasing documents outsorted in Bill printing.

Former Member

Hi,

The documents outsorted (manual) in bill printing are shown in ERDO. We have "Outsrt. Print" field as set in spro-> .. -> outsorting for invoicing -> define manual bill outsorting for invoicing.  I am unable to release the manually outsorted documents for bill printing using EA05. Is there any other way out to release the manually outsorted documents for bill printing.

Thanks & Regards,

Sathya.

There is no standard mechanism for releasing invoices outsorted during print.  You would need to do this on a project basis.  EA05 cannot be used for those documents.

Thanks for the response, Sachin. I guess ea05 is to list only the outsorted bill / invoice documents and not for the outsorted inv doc for printing. I could see an entry with the print doc no in ERDO, but when i try to use the same print doc in ea05 , system throws "no objects corresponds to the selection criteria".

Hi,

You can release the "outsorted inv doc" via EA05, only thing select the proper input parameters like the "Invoicing documents" tick in the 'Invoicing' tab, and can give the Print Document number,

Try and see if helps you out.

Sachin,

manual Invoice outsoritng can happen for two cases 1. invoice posting 2. invoice printing. When the document gets outsorted for case 1, we can release it in the way you had explained but this does not work for case 2.

Thanks,

Sathya.

Thank you Bill.

So, the entries with "Outsrt. Print" will remain in the table ERDO unless we clear it thru custom code ?.

can we print these outsorted documents using EA60 ?

Thanks & Regards,

If the Document is present in table ERDO does not always means that it is outsorted.  After an Invoice is outsorted  an entry is Created in ERDO with an Invoice # , Once this Invoice is realeased through EA05 this entry is replaced by another number  with the release status set in ERDO . If you are releasing an Invoice through EA05 that means it is released  for both Invoice and Print Outsort . Also for manual outsort we need to make sure that both the outsortings are active in SPRO.
