"All items from purchase order cannot be invoiced"

[Former Member]

Hello,<br />

<br />

I'm on a SRM 7.0 SP 5 system (ext-classic scenario). Here i try to create an invoice with reference to a Purchase Order, but none of my Purchase Orders can be used for reference. I get the following warning message 'All items from purchase order cannot be invoiced'.<br />

<br />

- Created via POWL (create with reference -&gt; invoice/credit memo) i always get the warning message 'All items from purchase order cannot be invoiced'. And no items are converted / can be used for invoicing. Additionally when i use the search option 'find purchase order' within the create invoice transaction i can not find any purchase order to use, it shows 'There is no search result' while there are plenty purchase orders marked with 'invoice expected'.<br />

<br />

I am able to create invoices without reference.<br />

<br />

I tried vendors set up only for 'invoice expected' and 'GR', 'invoice expected' / 'GR' / 'GR-based-IV' and 'invoice expected' only none of them works, indicators set on vendor master are correctly used on the created purchase order. Outputting PO doesn't make any difference neither.<br />

<p />

I have not set up the following (do i need to?):<br />

- Deactivated the 'CRME' transaction type, no Credit Memo transaction type has been configured/is active.<br />

- I have not defined the 'INV' transaction type as a follow-on document for my ECPO transaction type within the define transaction type transaction.<br />

- Tollerances<br />

<br />

<b>edit</b> -&gt; i've already searched thorougly for SAP notes but no note seems to cover this particular problem.<br />

<br />

Help is very much appreciated
