Release to Accounting

[Former Member]

Is the function "release to accounting" on VF02 necessary after VA01 or vice versa?

What is the purpose of "release to accounting" ?

Thanks for the help.

dear friend,

VF01 is first, VF02 is the second (if needed) step

In the following cases, the billing documents are blocked for release to the accounting department:

-If the billing type automatically blocks the billing document when it is created

-If errors occur in account assignment

-If the billing document is incomplete

-If errors occur in pricing

If the system blocks a billing document from being forwarded to the accounting department, you must explicitly release it. By releasing it, you pass on the billing data of that billing document to the accounting department.

thanks for the great tip PPIO_ENTRY.

if you run t-code VOFA for your billing type you will see the checkbox "Posting Block"

if it is OFF (no tick) and invoice was created without any errors you will get automatic transfer to accounting (so, you do not need to release it)
