Automation of purchase miro

[Former Member]

Dear SapGurs,

we want to do Automation of purchase miro with reference to purchase order. For eg. we had process migo with

reference to purchase order. Now we want to do the automation of miro. Is there any standard transaction available in sap

where with reference to pruchase order, we can select migo document and with reference to migo ,process the miro in

background without manual intervation. system will pick up document date ,reference and amount of migo and copy the same

to document date ,reference and amount of miro.

Regards,

Rajesh

Hi,

Apart from ERS (retrobilling) there is no simple standard. There are add-on solutions available involving scanning that would achieve some Automation in the process

The Invoices are scanned and the Data is transferred to SAP (usually via IDOC INVOIC) This is then posted/parked in MIRO.

Workflows for Approval / Correction etc can also be included in the scope of such a project.

Kind regards

Please investigate if ERS could apply for this process with a Logistic consultant!

ERS u2013 Evaluated Receipt Settlement

Procedure for settling invoice based on goods receipts automatically. When you use Evaluated Receipt Settlement (ERS), you have an agreement with the vendor that they do not create an invoice for an ordering transaction. Instead, the system posts the invoice document automatically on the basis of the data in the purchase order and goods receipts. This eliminates invoice variances.

Hi,

There wont be such business scenario exists as i belive.

Since first PO then GRN then MIRO and then Payment are the PROCURE TO PAY cycle steps.

If you even automate the process for MIRO, then where you will enter the vendor invoice reference and invoice date and most importantly TAXATION if applicable. You cannot decide these things when you prepare GRN.

Still if you want to automate, then you need to ask your ABAPer to develop a background program, which will run periodically in a day and posts MIRO with same references of GRN document only.

But this is not at all ADVISABLE...Explain your business process owner regarding this situation.
