Receiving against a Purchase Order

When you have received all the ordered against an item on PO, the receipts are completed, and the receipt completed checkbox get checked. If you want to short-close a PO, then you can use “Complete Receipts” action item available in PO application. This action item will check receipt completed checkbox and will not allow further receipts against the PO.
However, if there is a successive return transaction, receipt completed checkbox gets unchecked and the PO again opens up for further receipt.

  1. I am able to approve invoice when PO is received. But when I am using complete receipts in PO, I am not able to approve invoice. getting the error "BMXAA2013E - Could not change invoice 1033 status to APPR.
    BMXAA1993E - Cannot approve invoice 1033 because there are no matching receipts for line 1 of purchase order 1990".

    Why is it so? and what is the difference in receiving and complete receipts functionality.
    the tables invoiceline, invoicecost and invoicematch should get updated for the action as per ibm's article. But when using complete receipts in PO, invoicematch table is not getting updated. and hence the mismatch error.

    Can you please explain?

  2. You should be able to approve invoice if:
    1- Invoice amount is equal to or less than the amount on PO and
    2- The receipts done are not less than invoice amount.

    Try to relate the behaviour with 3 way invoice matching. You will get the explanation. Hope this helps
