How does this table get populated? Any reports using this table?
Thanks.

Hi Liz:
The table comes into play during posting of FI docs. It is hard to explain under what all conditions it gets updated, but I can direct you to the place which explains the logic under which the data in this table is inserted.
The triggering of insertion into this table is from function module POST_DOCUMENT. Line around 432 to 445 in this function module explains the circumstances under which the data is inserted in this table.
Hope it helps. Also, based on the context in which you are using this table, do a WHERE-USED list on this function module and you may come across more clues specific to your needs.

Hi Liz,
here is the low down on the table.....
This table is used to store AP (Vendor) invoice reference numbers (Vendor document numbers) and is used to check for duplication of vendor invoice numbers.
i.e. when you enter a reference number in FB60 (Accounts Payable) or MIRO (Logistics Invoice "PO related"), this reference number is stored in this table.
Now when you enter the same reference number for the same vendor / date(in cases specified by customizing <i>SPRO -> Materials Management -> Logistics Invoice Verification -> Incoming Invoice -> Set Check for duplicate Invoice</i>) but different invoice, this table is checked and if the entry is found and the customizing conditions are met, a dialog error is issued on the screen (MIRO/FB60) and further processing is stopped.
<i>This mechanism is helpful in stopping duplication of data as you run the risk of paying the vendor twice. Also remember that these checks are performed on the accounting side, but are done even during Logistics invoice verification</i>
Hope I was able to throw some light on this valuable table in accounting.
Cheers!
Rishi

Is there any other way to check for duplicate credit posting?
