Block backdated invoice in 3rd party sales

[colin_cheong]

Hi,

The MM had been blocked from backposting.

However, the invoice generated from 3rd party order still can be back posted to last month.

This had created confusion in the finance AR figures.

How can I block them from creation of backdated invoice once the MM month is closed?

Thanks

Bye

Dear Siew,

Please check VTFA select you S.O. type and Billing document Type and Item Category and then in

field DATA VBRK/VBRP put value as 011 and try now.

Even though period is closed in MM, the FI Posting postings could still be open which is why its possible to post the invoices.

check with your FI Consultants and see if the period is still open in T-Code OB52.

Hi,

Blocking posting in GL will affect other AR posting. May not be feasible.

I guessed the best is still to check it during invoice creation.

Will explore doing it in the user exit.

Thanks for the feedback.

Hi

You can also check it in copy rules, setting a customer VOFM requirement.

I hope this helps you
