No attachment in invoice document

[TSoon]

Hi expert,

I had recently posted an invoice document in Ariba with an attached pdf document. However, I did not get any invoice attachment in ERP. Can you advise where could be the missing setting? I checked thru the transaction rule in Ariba config. And follow the standard setting in ERP which I expect that the pdf document will be attached as GOS object in ERP.

Any idea is appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Expert,

The Idoc indicates there is PDF document attached. However, still could not get the attachment displayed in the invoice document. Any additional setting required at ERP side? I got the Order confirmation, and Shipping notification attachment in ERP, but not invoice.

Appreciate some pointers given.

Thanks.

The attachment has come in after reprocess the invoice inbox message from Buyer login.

Reprocessed the IDoc via BD87 Transaction code seemed not able to get the Attachment document posted into ERP.

Hello thiansoon.ter2,

Are you able to fix your issue on invoice attachment?

we are encountering the same issue and i observe in the CIG Tracker the InvoiceRequest does not have any attachment detail compared to ASN, but for the IDOC there is a segment for attachment.

Hi Jade,

Yes, we managed to solve the issue. Without implementing the one suggested by Daniel. I could not remember what was done. If I found anything, I will post it here.

Hi,

Since there's no mention of it, I will ask, have you followed the steps below?

How to enable attachments and comments for invoices

Thanks,

Hi Daniel,

I am also facing the similar issue, as Invoice attachments are not appearing in S4HANA back end system under Invoice document posting (MIRO).I did see the Invoice attachment is appearing in AN Buyer Acct / CIG and also attachment file name appears in inbound INVOIC IDOC segment (shown in below screen shot).

I tried to maintain the config as per your shared link How to enable attachments and comments for invoices but some how I am getting the err "Class CL_ARBCIG_INB_IDOC_SUCS_EVENT doesnt exist".

Below is the screen shot:

Appreciate your inputs.

Hi Experts

I am facing the same issue> Attachments is not display in Services for Objects > Attachment List, although is displayed either in CIG and Idoc.

I have performed the instructions that you mentioned but still :

1. Default transactions rules for Invoice

2. Enabling attachments and comments for invoices

Could you please let me know if there are other configurations that need to see the invoice attachments in the SAP_ERP?

I will be much appreciated your insights.

Kind Regards

Thanks.

Have you done the steps on the second link I shared?

Header attachments are sent to the standard GOS attachments and it's displayed on MIR4.

But in order to appear you have do configure the linkage as per the doc I shared (the first one was for new addon releases and the second for old ones).

Thanks

Hi Daniel,

I did the configuration as per the link > https://help.sap.com/viewer/32ba8b3dbca645e9b8b7b3e84d61e3db/2002/en-US/9c3339539632416f8ba2102f342a...

Below is the screen shot for ref.

Below is the screen shot of inbound IDOC which shows attachment file name (IndirProc-Attachment.pdf) under the segment E1EDK01 (E1ARBCIG_ATATCH_HDR_DET). I checked in MIR4 but some how I didn't find the attachment. In which tab specifically the attachment will be stored ??? Am I overlooking at anything ?

Hi Daniel,

This issue is resolved. I see the attachments are available in Transaction MIR4 under Services for Objects > Attachment List. This was my Question and I found the attachment location. Below is the reference screen shot if some is also looking for the similar issue.

Hi,

I think you are running on an old version of the CIG addon.

Please check if you can proceed with these instructions instead: https://help.sap.com/viewer/32ba8b3dbca645e9b8b7b3e84d61e3db/2002/en-US/9c3339539632416f8ba2102f342a...

Thanks

Hi Daniel,

I see Invoice attachment file name appears in inbound IDOC (Message Type INVOIC) under the segment segment E1EDK01 (E1ARBCIG_ATATCH_HDR_DET) sent from Supplier portal as an attachment at Header Level. But some how I cant see the attachment in back end SAP system in Display Invoice doc Transaction MIR4. Just wondering where does this attachment gets stored ??? Does this get stored at SAP Invoice posting Transaction MIR4 at header level ???

Srinivas
