Issue with B2B supplier invoice posting (InvoiceRequest_Out is not triggering from SNC)

[Former Member]

Hello Team,

We are facing issue with Invoice posting in B2B scenario.

Whenever our B2B supplier posts an invoice the 'InvoiceRequest_In' is coming correctly, however the 'InvoiceRequest_Out' is not triggered to PI which would eventually be sending INVOIC idoc to ECC which will post the invoice against the corresponding PO. As a work around we are processing such invoices using the report /SCA/INVOICE_PUBLISH to ensure the invoice is posted.

Could you please let me know what would be causing this issue?

Thank you in advance

Hi Fazal,

Did you assign below validation profile to your customer BP?

Here is a sample which you can apply:

Hi Selim,

Thanks for the response.

No, i don't see this configuration maintained.

Below are the configurations that are there as of now.

The validation group B2B is assigned to only suppliers. Do we need to assign our customer here? please confirm.

The validation profiles set up IV01 has the below validation checks activated

So i assume the required validation checks like below few examples are to maintained with IV01 and then the same needed to be configured with validation group B2B. Please confirm.

1. INV_PUBLISH_DIRECT

2. INV_ITM_TAX_CODE_VALID

Thank you in advance.

Go to PPF and check if action SCA/BOL_INVOICE_XML_ROUTIN is active and then make sure validation check INV_PUBLISH_DIRECT is active.

Hi Sandhya,

Yes, the action /SCA/BOL_INVOICE_XML_ROUTING is defined under action profile /SCA/BOL_INVOICE but inactive check is activated.

However i have activated the invoice validation check

I believe since we want the direct sending of invoices from B2B to happen, we have not activated the PPF. Kindly advise.

Can you test after activating the action /SCA/BOL_INVOICE_XML_ROUTING under PPF and then confirm if its working.
