GR Based IV flag issue in PO

[sayana_anji]

HI Gurus,

SAP SRM system details: SAP SRM 7.01 (extended classic scenario)

Issue: Inconsistent behaviour of GR-IV (Confirmation based invoice verification) indicator in SAP SRM7.01 system.

We are facing Inconsistent behaviour of Vendor flags in Purchase Order sometimes po line item defaulted as no GR_IV flags(2waymatch) and sometimes yes (3waymatch).We can see no pattern or cause, the outcome appears at the moment to be random.

Note: Vendorflag is checked for all suppliers.

Hi. GR based IV is not 3 way match vs 2 way match. 2 way match is where you remove the GR indicator so that there is no goods receipt at all. GR based IV just means that the invoices match to specific GRs. Any PO with the GR indicator on is 3 way match whether it has GR based IV or not.

Ayway, presuming you do want the GR based IV flag on, are there any contracts or anything like that which could have different settings on?

I presume you are checking the vendor flags in SRM not ECC? Just in case it has been set in ECC and not replicated into SRM yet. That is presuming it replicates, been a long time since I used it in SRM.

Have you checked BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI and BBP_ECS_PO_OUT_BADI in case there is any code influencing?

Regards,
Dave.
