Final Invoice Indicator Warning message at MIRO

[Former Member]

Hi Everyone,

We are looking for a way to warn user while entering Invoice (MIRO) for a PO line which has been marked as "Final Invoice".

I have found messages M8 705 & 707 being helpful, and maintained them as allowed for maintaence through OBA5.

But Still system does not trigger the message if i try to post invoice for a PO line which is marked as "Final Invoice"

Please help if we need to do something different to achieve the results.

Thanks in Advance.

Hi All,

We are implementing Badi, As activating Business function is not feasible, which involves regression testing.

Thanks everyone, for your inputs.

Implement BAdi - "Invoice Update" to achieve the solution.

one doesn't know everything, there are many at SAP and even in my organization who are specialists in certain areas and have a deeper knowledge, they only do not participate in SCN

Hi Pankaj Bansal;

Problem is simple normally but is there anything else what we do not know. Sir and friends advise some paths , but if you do not solve the problem please contact SAP.

For example , your system might have modifications or anything else. You have to analyse your system , advises are given based on standart system.

And, if you solve the problem, please inform us.

Regards.

Hi Jurgen,

There is no question about your or anyone else's experience,

I really like your Car key Anology, and agree with that in this situation, and lot of other cases we run in our day to day activities.

Again all your knowledge sharing much appreciated.

Mehmet,

No Enhancements exist in system, but what AKPT is saying, seems like the answer, we might be missing BF  in our system, and may have to activate it.

Thanks for your help so far.

Hi,

   I think the functionality is available with the business function LOG_MM_CI_2. Please check whether the function is activated correctly. When I checked in EHP 4 system where the business function LOG_MM_CI_2 is active, I am able to get the message in MIRO as configured. See the screenshot below:

Jurgen,

I assume you are not representing SAP.

So lets wait from Some senior person to shade some light on this message, and its use case.

As you mentioned its a challenge to find needle in haystack , Car with Key.

But i am still not able to figure out why SAP will provide message control for a reporting issue, but not at transaction level.

Hi,

   You wont find a senior person than Mr. Jurgen in SCN!!!

If you want a senior and experienced person more than Jurgen Sir, then contact SAP regarding your issue.

But I assume, in SAP, you will also not find a person who is more than experienced (MM module) than Jurgen Sir.

Check his reputation tab. you will understand.

Thanks for your advice.

HI Everyone,

Thanks for all your support and knowledge sharing.

I will still like to hear something some more about Mystrey behind Message M8 - 705 & 707 which are setup by default in System and allowed maintenance.

Our discussion really does not clarify why SAP has no OSS reference note of something explained around possibilities of using that control in any documentation.

Really appreciate all your time.

If needed you can also raise an request to SAP

[JL23]

if you go to SE91 and list all messages of message class M8 then you can see that SAP has built sections to tell where these messages are used. From message 700 onwards are messages from reports. Hence I think you wont get these messages in a MIRO transaction

Hola Jurgen,

How  the message can be set , even if he don't have any impact on transaction.

[JL23]

The message can be set variable as he had done and showed it in the screenshots. At least the long text in M8707 explains that this is a customizable message. I don't have any long text for M8705 despite of an indicator that it should be present.

I know some methods to find a message in a program if I had seen it in a transaction even when  SE91 where-used list doesn't show anything. But without any such info it is like a search for the needle in the haystack.

to continue with my car analogies, you have found a key (message number M8707) but now you need to find the car (report and transaction) somewhere in New York where this key fits.

Hi All,

Thanks for continuous help,

But message seems to be written in a complicated way that we are not able to reach out to source code.

@Jurgen: I did set "Gr based IV" , "final invoice" & "Invoice receipt" indicator, and than do GR, Than i did set "Delivery Complete" Indicator, Still i am able to post invoice without any error or warning message.

Hi,

Why Can't you can try maintaining Tolerance limit in Invoice which can stop further posting to vendor in MIRO.

Or you need to go for development , to check the final Invoice Indicator in PO  EKPO-EREKZ and not allow any further posting in MIRO for each line item.

Check the below OSS Note it may help you to get the correct exit or Badi to add an custom logic to suffice your requirement.

Hi Forum,

Please share experience if anyone is already using this functionality.

We really don't want to implement enhancement to achieve it.

A precondition for this messages is that your PO has the GR based IV indicator active.

Those messages came with EHP4, I am not sure if the program part that is processing these messages is active by default or becomes only active after a certain business function is activated

Hi all ;

Can you look at oss note 1605391 - MIRO: Warning message M8 504 not in message log ?

Also , you can do debug for message with a abaper.

Hi,

With your  messages setting , you need to do also again message settings in t.code: OBMSG  for message number M8 705 & 707.

Bijay,

Just to let you know, if settings in OBMSG are not in place, you cannot even see that message for maintenance in OMRM,

Those settings are in place.

Hi,

With your  messages setting in OMRM or OBA5 , you need to do again message settings as Error in t.code: OBMSG  for message number M8 705 & 707 where your system will triggers your expected result.
