Duplicate invoice check against FI parked invoice

[siowfong_chen]

Hi! Can I find out whether it is possible to do duplicate LIV invoice check against a parked FI invoice? This will happen in situation where the invoice was first created as a FI invoice without a PO and then when the information is clearer, a LIV invoice was created. Current testing in the system shows that there is no check.

Note that the duplicate check works the other way round, I.e. if a LIV invoice is parked and then a FI invoice is created, a duplicate check happens without problem.

Appreciate clarification on the above.

Cheers!

If your FI invoice is posted based on vendor details than it will check duplicate invoice entered in system , if you have duplicate invoice check active in vendor master record...

For more information refer the below note it might help you..

Hi, just an update. We have raised this with SAP and I will update when we get a final solution. Cheers!

Thanks Manu and Mallinath. I did find those messages and the Wiki article and the configuration was set up accordingly but for some reasons the system is not outputting a message when I create the LIV invoice using the same reference, invoice date and company as a FI parked invoice. Guess I have to start looking into the program. I couldn't find any bug fixes in OSS note in this area too.

Cheers!

Hi,

   Please check whether the message F5 117 is active.

To configure the error number F5117 , go to SPRO - Cross-Application Components - Bank Directory - Change Message Control. Enter the application area as F5. Here you can create the number 117 as a Warning or an Error.  Maintain the message here nad test the scenario again.

Refer the note:1900510 - Duplicate Invoice check configuration as per standard

Hi AKPT,

Thanks for the information. For us, the configuration is already in place. The duplicate check is working for the following scenario:

1. Parked FI invoice. Duplicate check works when creating a FI invoice with same reference.

2. Parked LIV invoice. Duplicate check works when creating a LIV invoice with same reference.

3. Parked LIV invoice. Duplicate check works when creating a FI invoice with same reference.

However, it did not work for the following scenario:

4. Parked FI invoice. Duplicate check DID NOT work when creating a LIV invoice with same reference.

In STD SAP we dont have the Duplicate iNv check in Parking .

The system works like this - You can park multiple but can post only once .On Posting it validates these check.

If you need the same functionality i  parking - use this exit and write the validation as required.

Hi Manu,

Just to clarify. I understand that we cannot do duplicate check on parked invoices. However, I am looking at doing a MIRO on a parked FI invoice. Based on reading the various notes and postings in SDN, it seems to suggest that it is possible. You also mentioned that on posting, the sytem validates the invoices/check. I want to find out whether that is the case. If so, I will report this as a bug to SAP.

Cheers!

Hi Siow,

One Question on Inv Parking - have maintained the message as E in your system ?

Check if invoice already entered as logistics inv. doc. number XXXXXXXX

2013

Message no. M8462

Is this MSG is activated as Error in your system ?

Check in T code  OMRM , if not please make it E .

Now run a test cycle in your QAS - Create PO, do GR , Do  park the Inv.

Try create another inv. parking with same PO - You will get this error and restrict from multiple parking

Multiple Invoice parking for same PO is not a bug . Please go through the link to understand its use.

Hi ;

Also check ; Spro / MM/ Logistic Invoice Verification / Incoming Invoice / Set Check for Duplicate Invoices

I advise , Check Company Code : Sap will check if the reference document occurs twice in the given company code.

Hi Mehment,

I don't think so for parking it will work out. for parking any condition will not work.

Please try my suggestion. It is working for me .

Now just fyi- Parking wont capture any Value nor any GL entry hence multiple is allowed to create.

hope it clear your doubt.
