Billing document without history not posted

[Former Member]

Hi all,

i have folowing problem:

1. Billing document is posted in previous period (period is closed)

2. Users have canceled billing document in current period but with wrong date and canceled billing document is in VFX3

3. Users have canceled goods issue, deleted delivery and sales order (canceled billing document is still in VFX3, they have not released it yet)

4. After deletion od documents, they try to release document and system reports different errors (no entry in Lips .... )

Are there any solution of this proem?

Thanks

Hi Uros

Ideally even if the delivery and the order is deleted your cancellation of billing document should be released to accounting properly with the standard settings. Just a guess that you have certain user exit being called on saving your invoice document that tries to reference LIPS (delivery line item)- while calling saving document through VF03.

Now to get ahead with this problem the following steps should be followed:

1. Firstly the original invoice is still not reveresed from an accounting point of view and you cannot use the cancellation invoice to do it because of the LIPS check. So best would be to manually ask your accounting team to post the reversal entries.

2. Secondly the cancellation document would keep showing in VFX3. From a SOX compliance persepctive you have a reason that you can justify what is wrong with this. In case you want to remove it completely you have no other option than to debug and change the contents of the field VBRK-RFBSK from blank to C. Its better you consult your system SOX team before doing this step.

Thanks

One post,One question.Please follow forum rules.

Restrict FI period posting for certain user(through authorization) on current month in OB52.

For question no.2 look for any user exit with error/warning message.

For questions 3 & 4 do configuration for automatic release of accounting documents,

then proceed with usual cancellation of documents in sales cycle.

Hi Uros,

system is very clear that no entry in LIPS, it means there is no delivery for this. you cont cancel this.

you have passable is that ask your developer to delete that posting document also.

you can create new delivery for this.

Thanks

Uros,

If you have any specific error, please mention the error message here, if possible with the message number. Then it will be possible for somebody to help you.

At the outset, it only seems to be a accounting interface problem. So please post the actual mesage you are getting.
