Occasionally, you receive from your vendors
invoices or credit memos that refer to transactions
that have already been invoiced. Your company
wants to use subsequent debits/credits to process
these documents.

Subsequent Debit/Credit

„

A subsequent debit/credit changes the total invoice value of a purchase order item; the total invoice
quantity remains unchanged.

y

An invoice must be entered as a subsequent debit if a purchase order item has already been

invoiced and further costs are incurred. (For example, a vendor has inadvertently invoiced you at
too low a price and then sends a second invoice for the difference.)

y

You must enter a credit memo as a subsequent credit if a purchase order item was invoiced at too

high a price and now you have received a credit memo. (For example, a vendor has inadvertently
invoiced you at too high a price and then sends a credit memo for the difference.)

„

If you enter a subsequent debit/credit, the R/3 System suggests the entire invoiced quantity, but no
value. The maximum quantity that you can subsequently debit or credit is the quantity that has
already been invoiced.

„

You can enter a subsequent debit/credit for a purchase order item only if an invoice has already been
posted for that item.

„

A subsequent debit/credit cannot refer to a specific invoice.

„

Subsequent debits or credits are flagged in the purchase order history.

When you post a subsequent debit/credit, the R/3 System posts the invoice amount to the vendor
account.

y

If the quantity to be subsequently debited or credited has already been delivered, the R/3 System

makes the offsetting entry to the stock account or the price difference account, depending on the
type of price control used. For purchase order items with account assignment, the R/3 System
makes the offsetting entry to the cost account.

y

If the quantity to be subsequently debited or credited has not yet been delivered, the R/3 System

makes the posting to the GR/IR clearing account. When you post the goods receipt, the R/3
System debits/credits the stock account or the price difference account, depending on the price
control used.

Because your company receives a large volume of
incoming invoices, you have temporary personnel
who park invoice information in the system without
checking it.

z

In your company, invoices whose amounts exceed
a certain value are required to be approved. To do
this, you want to use document parking with
workflow.

„

In conventional Invoice Verification, you can park invoices in the following situations:

y

An experienced invoice verification clerk wants to process an invoice, but is missing some of the

information needed to post the invoice (for example, account assignment information). He or she
parks the invoice. As soon as he or she receives the missing information, he or she changes the
parked document and posts it.

y

A less experienced employee enters the invoice data without checking it. The expert then checks

the parked document, makes any necessary changes, and posts it.

y

There is a significant price variance in an invoice. To prevent the system changing the moving

average price of the invoiced material to an unrealistic figure, you park the invoice.

When you park an invoice, the system saves the data that you enter. The system assigns a number to
the document, but no postings are made.

„

You can change a parked document as often as you like.

„

The system only makes the actual checks within the "Save as complete" or "Post parked document"
function.

„

Account postings are made when you post a parked document.

„

Parked documents are listed in the purchase order history.

„

When you are working in Invoice Verification, you can branch directly to Document Parking.

„

You can delete a parked document. The system does not re-issue the number of the deleted
document. When you delete a document, the document header remains in the system as evidence of
what the document number was issued for. The line items are deleted from the database.

There are different ways of storing information from an invoice in the system without generating an
accounting document:

„

Hold document

Only preliminary checks are performed, for example, the invoicing party and the currency must be
known.

A MM document is created. No information is transmitted to Financial Accounting.

„

Park document

The same checks are carried out as for document parking. The system does not check the document
balance and account assignment yet.

A MM document is created, and the purchase order history is updated. Information is also
transmitted to Financial Accounting. The document is listed in the parked open vendor items and is
taken into account during tax reporting (advance tax return).

„

Save document as complete

The same checks are carried out as for “Park document”. Additionally, the system checks whether
the document can be posted, that is, that the balance is zero and the account assignment data is
consistent.
The same checks are carried out as for “Park document”. The purchase order commitments are also
canceled out

„

Using the worklist, you can further process held and parked documents, as well as documents saved
as complete.

In Logistics Invoice Verification document parking, you can park invoices, credit memos,

invoice documents, you can use this workflow.

„

All users authorized to complete parked documents receive a work item in their inbox. The work
item can be used to change parked documents. The work item appears in the inbox of this employee
until the parked invoice document has been completed, or until the invoice document is completed,

„

In Logistics Invoice Verification, you can control the document parking process using workflow.
This is useful where invoices exceeding certain release criteria must be approved by an employee
responsible for release before the invoice documents are posted.

y

In the release procedure, the person responsible for release decides whether the invoice document

should be released. If he or she decides to release the invoice, then the document is posted.

y

If he or she refuses the release, the document, including a note detailing the reason for the refusal,

is passed to the invoice verification clerks responsible for completing documents for them to make
changes.

„

When the changed invoice document is "saved as complete" and becomes relevant for release, then
the person responsible for release receives a new work item in his or her inbox for processing.

„

The workflow ends when the person responsible for the release releases the invoice document, or
when the invoice verification clerk deletes or parks the invoice

You usually receive a credit memo from a vendor if you were overcharged.

„

A credit memo can be entered with reference to a purchase order or a goods receipt.

„

If you enter a credit memo for a purchase order item because the vendor has invoiced you at too high
a price, you must post the credit memo as a subsequent debit/credit. The total quantity invoiced for
the purchase order item remains the same; the total value invoiced is reduced.

„

When you post a credit memo, the account movements are made according to the same rules as when
you post an invoice. The R/3 System posts to the same accounts, but with the opposite +/- sign next
to the entry.

Reversing Invoices

„

If you enter an invoice incorrectly and post it despite the error, the invoice can subsequently be
reversed.

„

When you reverse an invoice, the R/3 System creates a credit memo based on the data in the invoice
document.

„

When you reverse an invoice, the account movements made when the invoice was posted cannot
always simply be reversed. For example, if there was sufficient stock coverage when you posted an
invoice with a price variance for a material with moving average price, but when you reverse the
invoice, there is insufficient stock coverage, the R/3 System posts the price difference in the credit
memo to a price difference account, although the price variance was debited to the stock account
when you posted the invoice.

„

When you reverse an invoice, all items in the document are reversed. You can reverse part of an
invoice only by entering a credit memo manually.

„

When you reverse a credit memo, the R/3 System creates an invoice.

„

You cannot reverse a reversal document.

„

When you reverse an invoice, the R/3 System does not clear the posting lines on the vendor account
in Financial Accounting.

„

If an invoice is blocked for payment when you post it, the field Payment block is selected in the
vendor line item of the invoice document. Financial Accounting is then unable to pay the invoice
automatically.

„

An invoice is blocked for one of the following reasons:

y

Automatically due to variances in an item

y

By entering a payment block manually

y

By stochastic blocking

„

A blocked invoice must be released for payment in a separate step, possibly after consultation with
the purchasing department or the vendor. This deletes the payment block.

For your lengthiest invoices with hundreds of line
items, the system should compare the total invoice
amount to the expected value from the purchase
order using background processing.

„

When you use Invoice Verification in the background, you only enter general invoice data (gross
invoice amount, tax information, terms of payment, allocation). You do not enter item data.

„

The data entered is saved in an invoice document. This document does not contain any items.

„

The settlement program, which is regularly started in the background, creates the items for this
invoice document. Based on the quantities and values to be invoiced, the system checks if the total of
the items and the amounts already saved (gross invoice amount, tax amounts, unplanned delivery
costs) results in a zero balance.

y

If the balance is zero or within the tolerance limits set, the system posts the invoice document in

the background.

y

If the balance exceeds the tolerance limits, the invoice document is saved with the items created

and must be processed manually later.

Background processing uses the same logic as online Invoice Verification. Therefore, the system

takes into account the settings in Customizing for automatic invoice reduction or automatic
acceptance.

Checking Invoices in the Background

„

The R/3 System checks invoices in the background using settlement program RMBABG00 and posts
them, if possible.

„

The system administrator defines jobs for the settlement program. The jobs start the program at
regular intervals, for example, every 15 minutes or every evening at 8pm.

„

You use frequent settlement runs when you enter an invoice containing many items, and do not want
to have to match up the invoice manually, but, if the invoice does have to be processed manually,
you want to be able to access it as soon as possible.

„

It makes sense to use a settlement run in the evening in the following cases:

y

You receive an invoice at the same time as a delivery. The goods receipt is entered in the course of

the day, but not immediately. You cannot check the invoice referencing the delivery note online,
because the delivery has not been entered yet. You expect the goods receipt to be entered by that
evening at the latest.

y

The invoices contain many items for the same materials. To prevent system locks and avoid

slowing down system performance during the day, you want the system to post the invoice in the
background during the night.

Settlement program

50 pcs mat. B = 500


1600,-

„

When you enter an invoice for verification in the background, the system first creates an invoice
document without items.

„

When you next run the settlement program, the system creates the item list and tries to post the
invoice document with the suggested quantities and values. In the above example, this is not possible
because you have only received part of the order for material B. The system therefore determines
that there is a difference between the expected invoice amount (100 x 10 + 10 x 12 = 1120) and the
actual invoice amount (1600). Therefore, the invoice document receives the status “verified as
incorrect”.

„

When the accounts payable clerk manually processes the invoice document, he or she sets the
invoice for processing in the background again.

„

When you next run the program, the system tries again to post the invoice. Since another goods
receipt has been posted in the meantime, the expected invoice amount is now 100 x 10 + 50 x 12 =
1600. Therefore there is no difference between the expected invoice amuont and the actual invoice
amount and the system posts the invoice document.

„

The system posts the individual items with the suggested quantities and values. As shown in the
example, you can have cases where price differences cancel each other out without being noted.

„

In Customizing for Invoice Verification, you configure the system to give invoices posted in the
background the status “correct” or “completed”.

Processing Invoices Verified as Incorrect

„

You must manually process an invoice document that was checked in the background and given the
status “contains errors”.

„

The R/3 System creates an error log for an invoice document that contains errors, indicating why it
could not post the invoice document.

„

You have the following options when processing an invoice document manually:

y

Change the invoice document and post it online

y

Change the invoice document and flag it for Invoice Verification in the background again

y

Flag the invoice document for Invoice Verification in the background without making any changes

„

If the R/3 System should not reprocess an invoice document that was verified as incorrect (for
example, because it was inadvertently entered twice), you can delete it.

At the end of this exercise, you will be able to:

For your largest invoices with hundreds of line items, the R/3
System is to match the total invoice amount to the expected value
from the purchase order and the goods receipts. If the variance is
within the tolerance limits, the R/3 System should post the
invoice. If the variance is too large, then you can correct the
problems on the Invoice Overview.

You receive several invoices that should match your purchase order data and goods
receipt data. Since invoice verification in the background will save you time later,
you use the transaction Enter invoice for invoice verification in background.
