Goods Receipt in Differential Invoicing
The recommended control setting for the pricing of an invoice item is goods receipt-based invoice verification. For a purchase order item relevant for differential invoicing and belonging to a material that is subject to batch management requirements, this allows you to post several goods receipts with different batch numbers and to use differential invoicing for each received batch. At goods receipt you can enter the price-relevant characteristics for the purchase order item. The system then takes these into account during price calculation, together with (if you have set up the corresponding calculation schema) the stock market price.
Recommendation
On the Invoice
tab of the purchase order item in question, select the GR-Based IV
(Goods-Receipt-Based Invoice Verification
) checkbox. You can select the checkbox in the corresponding purchasing info record or in the purchasing data of the vendor master record.
Prerequisites
For further information about the prerequisites, see Differential Invoicing in the Commodity Procurement Process.
Features
Features of Goods Receipt with Batch
For one purchase order item you can post several goods receipts with separate batches. In goods receipt, you can call up the classification on the Batch
tab, and create characteristic values. When you post, the system automatically creates a batch number with the characteristic values entered. If you have specified the goods receipt date as the pricing date, the system performs a repricing at goods receipt.
The pricing that takes place at goods receipt takes into account the batch classification that you performed at goods receipt in the context of the commodity purchase.
Reversal of a Goods Receipt
The system does not allow the reversal of an already posted goods receipt for which a provisional invoice, a differential invoice, or a final invoice exists. This is because it would destroy the document sequence.
