Storing Documents in Logistics Invoice Verification (MM-IV) 
Storing Documents in Logistics Invoice Verification (MM-IV)
Use
In the Logistics Invoice Verification component, you can place incoming and outgoing print-format documents in an external content server using SAP ArchiveLink. The scanned print-format documents are stored in an external content server and linked with the R/3 documents upon which they are based. From the display of the R/3 documents, you can display the stored print-format documents.
Depending on when the incoming documents are stored, you can use the following storage strategies:
All storage strategies are described in detail in the SAP ArchiveLink component, in the section
Storage Strategies.
Storage for subsequent entry with document parking, which automates processing, is a special case. The employee responsible for document parking receives an incoming document through the SAP Business Workflow. In the entry transaction that is assigned to the invoice, he or she can park an invoice on the basis of the incoming document that is available in the system. He or she can then forward the invoice and the incoming document for further processing to the employee responsible (for approval or checking). The latter can complete processing and post the invoice.

Preparation and Customizing (MM-IV)
In Customizing for Logistics Invoice Verification, you can define for bar code entry the print-format document type for each company code and R/3 System document. To do this, choose Incoming Invoice ® Maintain Bar Code Entry.
If you do not define a document type in Customizing, the document type MMILOGINV appears for invoices and MMILOGCRED for credit memos.
The basic pre-settings in SAP ArchiveLink are contained in
Customizing.Activities
The procedure for storing print-format documents depends on which storage strategy you use.
When entering an invoice with workflow, you cannot see the invoice number of the entered document. If you want to see the invoice number when you enter the invoice, you have to change the message M8 060 (Document no. created) or M8 564 (Invoice document saved) from message type S (note in footer) to message type I (note in window). You maintain this setting in the step Define Attributes of System Messages in Customizing for Logistics Invoice Verification.
