MM invoice reverse clearing is treated as payment

[Former Member]

Hello,

Our MM team is using transaction MR8M to reverse MIRO.

After clearing it with F-44 original MIRO document is treated as paid.

We are using update profile 00350.

Invoice is posted into ledgers 9B and 9A

Payments are posted into ledger 9A

If we post invoice via FI and then reverse it via FI (FB08) document in FM is displayed like this:

Commitment budget value type 54 (Invoice) 100

Commitment Budget value type 54 -100

Payment budget value type 54 100

Payment budget value type 54 -100

When doing steps for MM document in FM it is displayed like that:

Commitment budget value type 54 (Invoice) 100

Payment budget value type 54 100

Payment budget value type 54 -100

Payment budget value type 57 (Payment) 100

The thing is that this invoice should be reversed, not paid. Any thoughts why this is happening, any solutions for that?

Hi Lauras

The reversal posting for MM invoices is different from FI cancel/reverse process, in this case a credit memo is created, so when both documents are cleared the value type 57 is created for both documents, so the reversal document has also value type 57 with opposite sign.

As of EhP4 you can have the amount type 0270 to distinguish whether the invoice was effectively paid or if it was just cleared against a credit memo.

Hi, César

I wish you were right...

Maybe we did some wrong set-up or somthing, but in my case it's not like you say

Here's the view of what I get after MR8M was cleared with IR:

Hi,

I do not see anything wrong with the postings. When you did MR8M, you merely canceled the invoice and your GR became open. If you do not expect any IR and want to close GR, you can run MR11 (for that document) and specify you want to clear GR and IR value difference for 100%. By doing that the FM will have 0 balance.

Hello, Ming

It's not quite exactly canceled invoice, as long as it has Value type "Payment" on a Payment budget it means "Money was payed", instead of saying "Invoice was canceled". It's ever both IR and Reverse documents have "Payment" but with different signs +/-, or both should not have "Payment". That's how I read those documents. Tell me where I'm wrong.

Hi, César

I turns out that we are siting on EhP3

Is there any specific part of EhP4 which can be loaded, or do we need whole EhP4?

Lauras, you have to install EhP4 and activate the enterprise business function PSM_FM_CI_2, and customize OF29 Update Credit Memos.

Hi all,

I have the similar issue. I have cancelled a logistic invoice using MR8M and then perform F-44 to

clear the logistic invoice and the credit note.

For the invoice, there are orginial, deduction and paid in the FM postings,

but for the credit note there is only orginial line (negative amount) in the FM posting.

We are using online transfer mode and ECC6.0.

Can advise what should be done?

May I know how to remove the deduction and paid postings from the invoice now?

Or how to make the credit memo generate deduction and paid postings?
