RE:Warnings in Fb60

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

An end user is trying to post the invoice.

But she gets warning messages saying:

"Quantity delivered is zero" and "Cross company code transaction in PO item 00000 for company code xxxx."

Even if its a warning,its not allowing her to post the invoice,i am a MM/WM Consultant,I am not sure whats going on???

Can someone help me out with this.Appreciate your help.

Thanks,

Srikanth

Hello Srikanth,

The error message M8285 appears if the exchange rate was manually

entered and additionally a direct posting to the G/L account will be

done with a different company code (cross company posting).

Please avoid this situation

of entering a manually exchange rate combined with entering a different

company code for the G/L account line. If this G/L account line has a

different company code then it will be converted with the exchange rate

from transaction OB08. This does not suit to the other FI line items

which are converted with the manually entered exchange rate and

therefore this balance message appears.

I suggest the following solutions:

- enter a G/L account in the G/L account tab with the same

company code (and do later a cross company posting on FI side,

if necessary)

or

- do this direct G/L account posting separately with transaction FB60

and adjust the gross amount in MIR4 (to bring the balance to zero).

hope this is of some help.

regards

Ray

Hello

In relation to the first message :

If there is no GR completed for the PO then system checks tolerance

limit DW: "Quantity variance when GR quantity = zero". In this case,

system throws the message M8088 Quantity delivered is zero. IF

message M8088 is set as warning message in your customization, then

you will not get any error message during creation of first invoice

even there was no GR.

Please check the system behavior first in your testsystem.

Raju,

It looks like an purchase order error during generation or even missed stock balances calculating.

Could you please tell me the error message code?

Hi,

I found a SAP note: 1319322 - MIRO: Error M8 285.

Please check entries in the table T169A.

Concerning Sap FI, that can be caused by exchange GL accounts definition.

Check whay is the reconciliation account of your vendor master data and go to transaction OB09. Look for this GL account in the list. If you do not find it, talk to your accountant to make sure what are the accounts to be defined.

It will probably be some pre-defined numbering approximately.

Thanks Marssel,

For your patience and time,let me work on that and would let you know if that is it.
