Payment Block in MIRO

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

I have posted the MIRO invoice before posting the MIGO entry. System has blocked the invoice for payment,

When I do the MRBR after posting the GR entry, system is removed the payment block before doing the quality inspection.

Actually, sytsem should update the quality block as well, but this is not happening. Could any one please help me is there any settings to get this.

Thanks & Regards,

Aswin

hello

It is only possible to automatically release invoices if their blocking

reasons are no longer valid. This can be the case for invoices blocked

due to quantity, price, or schedule variances, or due to quality

inspection.

You can only use the function Release automatically for the blocking

procedure Blocked due to variances.

However, please note that if the 'GR-Based IV' indicator is set in the

line item of the PO, the invoice can not be released automatically.

The reason behind this s that with GR-based IV the system only

makes checks against each individual goods receipt rather than

against the invoice as a whole. If you need to use GR-based IV, then the

invoice will have to be released manually in MRBR.

The standard behavior of the SAP R/3 system is:

If to the material the QM in procurement is active and in the QM control

key invoice block is active the invoice will be blocked for quality

reasons if there is still no usage decision for the inspection lot or if

the inspection lot is rejected.

The invoice itself will be blocked automatically, the Payment Block Key

will be set to R. The Blocking reason I is not visible in the invoice

and has nothing to do with the settings in OMR9.

As per the online documentation:

Quality Inspection (I)

If a material is defined as being relevant for quality management, goods

receipts for this material are posted to stock in quality inspection.

Invoices for the material are blocked until the inspection has been

successfully completed.

If more than one goods receipt is posted for an order item, an

inspection is carried out for every goods receipt. In Invoice

Verification, the system reacts differently depending on whether

goods-receipt-based Invoice Verification is active:

Goods-receipt-based Invoice Verification is defined in the purchase

order.

The invoice is blocked if the inspection has not been completed for the

goods receipt.

Goods-receipt-based Invoice Verification is not defined in the purchase

order.

The invoice is blocked if any goods receipts are still in quality

inspection. If an invoice is posted before the goods are received,

it cannot be blocked for quality inspection. <<<<<<

hope this helps

There is no invoice block for quality

Invoice block is available for Quantity and Price deviation.

You can put a manual block or can use SD exits to block the invoice in case of quality deviation.

Dear Gaurav,

Thanks for your immediate reply

I have posting the MIGO entry first before posting the MIRO entry system is blocking the document for quality checking, since the material is quality relevant.

but the reverse case is not happening. I feel some settings must be there.

Thanks & Regards,
