Automatic Invoice cancellation in Supplier Portal after specified period of time

[former_member746072]

There is a client requirement for MSME vendors, after submitting the invoice in supplier portal invoice will be parked automatically in ECC. There is approval mechanism for client i.e., if they rejects the invoice the status will be updated in Supplier portal post the reversal of Parked invoice in ECC. Now, vendor will revise the invoice and share back to buyer. The requirement is that if vendor doesn’t share the revised invoice in 10 days then the invoice must cancel in Supplier portal and Supplier had to submit new invoice with current date.

Hi Bolla,

The requirement is not supported by Ariba Network which is what your customer is using as supplier portal.

The invoice cannot be automatically cancelled because it is submitted by supplier and supplier is the owner of it. Buyer cannot simply cancel supplier's invoice just because it got rejected in ERP.

The only thing that is possible it is to allow supplier invoice cancellation (there is a business rule for that). If this is allowed in your country (per tax regulations) you can consider leveraging it.
