Automatic Release (SAP Library - MM Invoice Verification and Material Valuation)

Automatic Release

It is only possible to automatically release invoices blocked due to quantity, price, or schedule variance if their blocking reasons are no longer valid.

These types of invoice do not usually require further processing and can be released automatically. Proceed as follows:

From the Invoice Verification screen, choose Further processing ® Release invoices. The initial screen for releasing invoices is displayed.

Enter data on the initial screen. Select the field Release automatically in the section Processing. The system then ignores your entries in the section Blocking reasons.

When you press ENTER, the system releases the invoices that meet your selection criteria and for which the blocking reason is no longer valid. If you specified on the initial screen that you want to change the baseline date for payment, a window appears in which you can enter the new date. When you press ENTER again, the invoices are released. The system displays a list of the released invoices and issues a message indicating how many invoices were released.

Note

You can run the release program, RMMR0200, in the background. Let your system administrator know which variants of this program are to be created and which jobs have to be defined.
