Proforma Account determination error

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus,

I have an issue with some proforma invoices. The billing types have been created exactly the same as F8, but when we check the VFX3 the new proforma invoices are  with errors with account determination. If I try to release them, I get a message that the number range it should have other numeration to be posted. I think We shouldn't change the number range because we don't want to post into accounting the proforma invoices.

If I go to VF02, everything looks well (there is no data in Account analysis).

Do you know what shoul I check or do to release those documents, so I don't see them anymore in the VFX3? For me it makes no sense that a proforma document appears in VFX3....

Thank you in advance.

It was a OSS note problem 1680081

Are you sure this OSS note is the problem/or resolved the problem?

The topic reads Note 1680081 - End-use not transferred from inbound delivery replicate and the contents talks about inbound delivery, PO, good receipt and customs declaration.

Please note that whatever is posted in the forum, many members are using to resolve their issues.

1. Please check in the billing documents, at Header level, Tab Header, field Posting Status;

Is Posting Status = D Billing document is not relevant for accounting?

In test system / IDES, when an F8 billing document is created, the posting status = D.

2. The billing type you / user had created by copying which document (F8 or F2 or....)?

What exactly you were trying to do ??  Please understand there is no accounting document for proforma and you can create en number of proformas for the same delivery.  This being the case, why were you trying in VFX3 ??

We are trying to fix the problem. I know a proforma shouldn't have to be released to accounting, but now it is happening by mistake, because we see that the system is trying it and giving us an error in VFX3. We don't know what we should change or check to avoid that this Z proforma try to release a document and give us this account determination error or Interface FI/CO error.

I checked customizing and looks exactly the same as F8.

but now it is happening by mistake

Can you please reconfirm that you could see accounting document for proforma ??

Also update here what is the document category for your proforma ??  You should be aware, it would be "U" for proforma and "M" for commercial invoice.

There is no accounting document for the proforma, because there are not accounts for it. But it looks like the system tries to create one, because this error in VFX3. I guess that if the system doesn't try to create the release to accounting, it wouldn't appear in VFX3.

And yes. It is a "U" type.

Thank you very much
