Credit note for Returns

[Former Member]

Hello,

I did a credit note for a "returns order".

Does someone know why I get the message:

Document xxx saved (no accounting document generated)

After that I have to press the "green flag" in change billing document or the ReleaseToAccounting within the menu.

Is there a reason for this? Could this credit notes be released to accounting automatically as invoices do?

(customizing?)

Thx a lot !!!

Hi Wolfgang,

check in the billing document type by transaction code VOFA

if there is a Posting Block (check box) is checked then you need to always manually release the billng document to accounting

hi,

Usually the billing docs are blocked automatically for transfer to accounting and then the billing doc is to be manually released for accounting.

Hello chandu,

thx. for your response.

Your answer is correct, when having a determination problem.

In my case I do nothing else, than save the credit note, then have to do a "ReleaseToAccounting" manually.

Is this a intentional 2-step procedure within SAP?

hi,

Best practice is always go to VF02, enter the doc no and then go to Environment-Account Determination Analysis-Revenue accounts. U will find the analysis and then act accordingly.
