Vendor to Invoice Payment Block

[former_member404709]

Hello

we want to automatically block all invoices against multiple vendors, so we updated the vendor masters with necessary payment block but these blocks are not being copied to the invoices ( when  they are keyed via FB60 & MIRO). Is there any setting i am missing which would copy the vendor payment block to invoices.

Going through multiple forums, i understand that the payment block from the vendor is kicking in during the payment proposal, but we want to see the same block at the invoice level. Is that possible?

Also, using a payment term to achieve this is not going to work since we have multiple vendors with same payment terms but different blocks. So this approach is out of the equation.

Any suggestions?? Thank you ..

Hi,

To  serve your purpose,you can have create a new payment term and assign to vendor OR do  it block in vendor master itself.

Creating a new payment term is not going to work for us..because we have multiple vendors with same payment terms but they all have different payment block reasons..and in payment terms you can maintain only one payment block..

if you updated vendor master record with payment block A (LFB1-ZAHLS), did you create a new invoice via MIRO? what was the entry on MIRO invoice (INVFO-ZLSPR)?

no custom program in place that conflicts SAP standard?

Yes, after we updated vendor masters with the payment blocks, we created invoices using MIRO and also via FB60, and in both the cases the invoice documents had "Free for payment", the payment blocks from vendor master are not copied over.

The vendor master block will trigger a prompt message that Account (xxx vendor) has payment block "A" even thought the MIRO created invoice does not have the payment block on INVFO-ZLSPR.

Once you run the F110 payment, it will respect the vendor master payment block.

The MIRO entry on INVFO-ZLSPR is applicable on specific scenario where you want to block specific document (Not across all documents of the vendor).
