Prevent Invoicing against Rejected Sales Order

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus

When we reject the sales order, in Sales Order header detail > Processing Status it shows it no more billing related. It is ok. Still user can invoice (Order Related) against this rejected Sales order after Credit Releasing through VKM3. How we can prevent this sales order from Invoicing.

Hi,

Adnan as advised in my earlier thread.

You can use status profile and based on the status group you can restrict creating any subsequent documents against status "rejected".

Thats the best option for you.

Hi Adnan,

This will help you

Use of Status Profile

User statuses are always defined in a status profile.

Procedure

First, you create a status profile.

Assign the corresponding object types to the status profile.

Define the required user statuses in the status profile.

Assign the user statuses to the corresponding business transactions.

If necessary, translate the status profile and the user statuses.

To be able to work with a status profile, you first need to assign it to the order type in Customizing

What you can do for your scenario could be something like this

Define a status profile, by going to SPRO - SD - SALES - SALES DOCUMENTS - DEFINE & ASSIGN STATUS PROFILE

Create 3 user statuses,

say

10 - Order Created (Lowest 10 , Highest 30)

20- Order Approved (Lowest 20, Highest 20)

30- Order Rejected (Lowest 30, Highest 30)

Now for status 30, create object types where you can forbid creating billing documents, this will solve your purpose.

Hope this will help you.
