Function documentationAssign Correction/Reversal Identifier to Invoice

 

When you make a correction or reverse the accounting document of an invoice, you are required to create correction or reversal invoices. You use this report to specify the type of the invoice you want to create after you have made a change to a previous invoice. You can also display an overview of the current changes, as well as the ones you already created a correction/reversal invoice for.

To access the program, on the SAP Easy Access screen, choose Start of the navigation path Accounting Next navigation step Flexible Real Estate Management Next navigation step Country Specifics Next navigation step General Next navigation step Correction/Reversal Invoices End of the navigation path.

Prerequisites

You have completed the following activities:

  • Specified the reason for change for correction invoices in the contract master data

  • Posted the accounting document the system created with the corrected data for correction and reversal invoices

  • Reversed the already posted and invoiced accounting document and specified the reason for reversal for reversal invoices in the Reversal of Periodic Posting for Contracts program

Features

Selection

In the Contract Selection group box, enter your company code. You can additionally filter your selection by specifying the contract, the reversal or correction accounting documents, and the reversed or corrected invoices.

In the Mode Selection group box, choose Assignment to specify the invoice type that you want to create for the corrected or reversed data, or choose Display if you want the system to display an overview of the corrected invoices and their accounting documents.

If you have already created and saved a layout for either mode, its technical name appears in the corresponding ALV Layout field by default.

Output

In Assignment mode, the report lists the corrected/reversed accounting documents, the invoices to be corrected/reversed, and their invoice items. In the Corr./Rev (Correction/Reversal Invoice Identifier) field, you specify whether you want to create a correction or a reversal invoice for the change you made. The reason for correction/reversal in the last column of the ALV list helps you decide what kind of invoice you should create.

If you want to specify the same invoice identifier for more than one entry in the ALV list, select the relevant rows and choose the Assign Correction Invoice Identifier (C) or Assign Reversal Invoice Identifier (R) pushbutton.

Note Note

If you have already created a correction/reversal invoice for a change, you cannot modify its assigned invoice identifier.

End of the note.

In Display mode, the system displays the overview of a change: it lists the corrected accounting documents, invoices, and their items, as well as the new accounting documents, invoices, and their items.

After you have created the correction or reversal invoice with the Create Invoices program, and you execute this report again, the report lists the invoice number as well as the invoice item number on the ALV list. The InvCreated checkbox will also be selected. If you have not created an invoice for the corrected or reversed entries, the checkbox is not selected and the fields of the correction/reversal invoice and item numbers are empty on the ALV list.
