SAP Invoice in Reference to a Contract posting

[former_member365606]

Dear,

We have activated the business function LOG_MM_CI_3 to post vendor invoices with direct reference to contract.

The problem I am encountering now is that while maintaining the MIRO transaction, the system automatically populate the standard error message M8147 - Account determination for entry 2000 WRX not possible where ''2000'' is our chart of account.

Does anyone have the same problem? I would not understand why WRX transaction/event is called in this particular case given the fact neither relase order nor service entry sheet is maintained for this particular contract line item?

Best Regards

Dear,

I solved problem with invoices with direct reference to contract.

Solution was to maintain material master record, tab MRP 2, field Scheduling Margin Key.

Thanks all.

Can you elaborate, I have no idea how scheduling margin key does interact with posting an invoice. how did you find that out?

Dear,

sorry,I made mistake. You need to maintain field quota arrangment usage on material master tab Purchasing. Thanks for fast replay

@Jürgen L: Thanks you for fast replay. You noticed mistake.

Quite confusing solution. Quota arrangement uses is not related to account determination process. Are you sure that you did not need to maintain the account determination (for WRX key) and you were able to post the invoice ?

I maintained account determination for WRX key before i posted this discussion. But that did not solved my problem from above. Solution was to maintaion field quota arrangment usage on material master.

Honestly , it is still hard to believe the solution.

Anyway, thanks for the confirmation..

Please ensure you made the following customizing setting,

• To enable users to post invoices directly to contracts, you must activate Customizing activity Activate Direct Posting to Contracts. In SAP Customizing, choose Materials Management Logistics Invoice Verification Incoming Invoice Activate Direct Posting to Contracts

Also refer the SAP note 1917999 (error message M8147) and the following link for your better understanding,

I am not sure, but have you checked is there any amount got posted for transaction key WRX ?

I am assuming, this case may be similar to the scenario  in this KBA document 1802639 - Account determination WRX in MM-Invoice for Non-Valuated GR
