Question no 3983 : Automatic Invoice scenarios

In SAP Materials Management, which of the following circumstances can automatically create an Invoice ?

(more than one answers)

A. When Inspection Lot Usage Decision posted with Accepted Code.
B. When Goods Receipt screen is set with Automatic Invoice and Automatic PO indicators.
C. Goods Receipt of Purchase Order item with GR-Based IV and ERS indicator.
D. Pipeline settlement.
E. Consignment settlement.

Answer: C, D, E

A) PO with Inspection Lot scenario, if the Inspection Lot is not UD or Rejected UD when the Invoice is created, the Invoice will still be created but with a Blocked Status (ie Blocked from Payment Run). However, the Blocked Invoices due to QM Usage Decision will have to be Released Manually. 

B) Automatic PO indicator is only for Auto PR-PO creation purpose, while there isn't any Automatic Invoice Indicator; it is the "ERS (Automatic Evaluation and Settlement Receipts" indicator) that facilitates the ERS process of Auto Invoice creation. AND there are no such indicators in the MIGO GR screens to select for these processes. 
C) Both GR-Based IV and ERS indicators are set in the Vendor (XK01 or XK02 in ECC) or BP Master (BP t-code in S/4). While the GR-Based IV will be defaulted to the Info Record and later to the PO item detail; the ERS indicator is not found in the Info Records and is directly defaulted from the Vendor/BP Master to the PO item detail. (note that there is however a "No ERS" indicator in the Info Record to switch of ERS requirement for Material-Vendor-Pur.Org-Plant combination).

There are 4 scenarios for Auto Invoice

• ERS Settlement for PO items with GR-Base IV and ERS indicator (MRRL). (Answer C)
• Pipeline Settlement (MRKO). (Answer D)
• Consignment Settlement (MRKO). (Answer D)
• Invoicing Plant Settlement (MRIS).

Storage Location Control

In ECC for setting up a Storage Location to be ignore by MRP Planning, it is possible to setup in MRP4 data view at the Storage Location segment with an MRP Indicator "1", in this way the Storage Location will be segmented from the Stock Requirement List and not Planned. 

The above 3 slides are extracts of setup in ECC6 EhP8. 

BUT what about S/4 2022 where Storage Location data segment in Material Master MRP4 view is no longer available. 

Check the following link to the Blog Post for the Possible Solution:

Limited Production Order creation for a Material

Requirement is to only allow certain Materials to be created using allowed Order Types. For example, a Material is not allowed to use "Rework" Order type but only allowed "Standard" Order type. When user try to create Production Order for the Material with "Rework" Order type should be blocked from processing the Order. 

There isn't any standard features that supports the above scenario.

Suggestion 1: Use the Production Scheduling Profile (which contains a default MTS/MTO Order Type) which can be assigned to the Material + Plant combination. Then when the user creating the Production Order using CO01 can implement a check if the correct Order type is entered compared to the Order Type in the Production Scheduling Profile. 

Suggestion 2: Create an SAP Table that stores the allowed Order type for Material + Plant combination, and the a User Exit at CO01 creation to check if the combination is allowed.

PS Internal Work Time Reporting

The scenario is about SAP Project System (PS) Internal Work Time Entries to be billed to the Customer.

A possible solution will be using a Sales Order (order type PS1 in ECC or user define order type with configuration for "RRB") for Resource Billing for the SD-PS integration using "(RRB) Resource -Related Billing":

1. Create Sales Order with an order item (for example, standard order or repair order) that is account assigned to a WBS element in a customer project.
2. The WBS element to be account assigned to the order item on the Account Assignment tab page.
3. Enter a Dynamic Item Processor profile (DIP profile) in the tab strip Sales B for the order item.
4. If you maintained the Dynamic Item Processor profile in a way so that the system takes the actual cost totals records as the source for the dynamic items.
5. The system sorts the dynamic items according to the SD order items and determines the price of the billing request using SD Pricing . In this way the SD Billing will be based on the DIP Items Actual Costs.

Here are online and Blog Posts related to DIP and Resource Billing:
