A/P invoice with discount copied to A/P credit note gives error.

[Former Member]

I am using SAP B1 2005B version.

When I try to create a A/P credit note based on an A/P invoice which has some discount amount. the system gives a message to specify the G/L account. but if I try to specify the G/L account entry field is greyed out. so we cannot enter any thing there.

Kindly help.

Hi Raghu

I saw all these notes but not useful.

When I try to save the credit memo a message is displayed

GL A/C MISSING. (MESSAGE 131-46)

and when I am trying to enter the G/L A/c no the field is disabled.

In case when the credit note is based on a A/P invoice which does not have any discount then this field where GL A/c is entered is not disabled. so i can select a G/L account and save my credit note.

I am using SAP B1 2005B.

Dear Selin Kingsley

Also Check Note 639207.

1. Find out the item's "Set G/L Accounts By" in the credit memo that

failed to add. (Item Master Data>Inventory tab)

If the item is managed by Warehouse, go to Administration ->Setup

->Inventory ->Warehouse->bring up each warehouse(Please make sure each

warehouse is set up)->define 'Sales Credit Account'

If it is managed by Item Group, go to Administration ->Setup ->Inventory

->Item Groups->bring up each Item Groups (Please make sure each Item

Groups is set up)->->define 'Sales Credit Account'

2. If the previous step still does not work, go to Administration>

Definition> Financials>G/L Account determination>Sales tab and Inventory

tab-> define 'Sales Credit Account'

I hope the information is helpful.

Goto Administration -> Setup -> Financials -> G/L Account Determination ->Purchasing Tab -> General Tab, set the G/L in 'Purchase Credit Account'.

This should work

The entry is already there in G/L Account Determination ->Purchasing Tab -> General Tab, set the G/L in 'Purchase Credit Account'.

Hi Selin,

Could you check in form settings whether 'active' checkbox is selected for the G/L account. Also, please check all the g/l accounts entered for the warehouse and in G/L Account determination form.

Yes in form settings the active column is ticked.

This problem does not come when I am creating A/P credit note for an A/P invoice in which discount is not there.
