Validation on document posted

[Former Member]

Dear All,

System should not allow to post the document with the posting date which is more than seven days from the Document date.

For Ex: Document Date is 01.01.2009 and posting date is 08.01.2009.

System should give a warning message. Can this be done through validation.

Thanks and regards

Hello,

Though this can be achieved though various options in validation, pratically, this is improbable. You cannot expect real business to enter all the documents within 7 days. Sometimes, you can receive the invoices even after 7 days. In such cases, you should decide what you are going to do with those invoices.

Restricting system against the standard working will results in rigid working and may forfeit the optimum benefits provided by SAP.

Regards,

Ravi

Dear Ravi,

I accept your views , but our client is very much process oriented and they dont keep their bills which is more than seven days not for all document types. It is for a particular document type were they do some trading business.

Let me put this way, is there any possibility that accounting clerk should not able to book invoices which has crossed seven days due and only the Accounts manager can post the document. Can it be configured.

thanks and regards
