Description:  With this app you can create and verify supplier invoices in terms of their content, prices, and arithmetic. When you post the invoice, the invoice data is saved in the system. The system updates the data saved in the invoice documents in Materials Management and Financial Accounting. This app allows you to complete the material procurement process, from the purchase requisition, via purchasing, to goods receipt. 
Key features:   Invoice Entry   Create and post an invoice with reference to a purchase order   Activate goods-receipt based invoice verification       Create and post an invoice without purchase order reference   Post directly to a G/L account   Post directly to a material account     Simulate the account movements before posting the document   Trace account movements that occur as a result of posting   Enter a payment reason for the supplier invoice   Depending on the company code, you can enter the Billing Period of Performance Start Date and Billing Period of Performance End Date.   Note In the header, you can choose the transaction you want to process: Invoice, Credit Memo, Subsequent Credit, or Subsequent Debit. Note Once the payment terms have been derived by the system they are no longer changed automatically. If you change the payment terms or the supplier while creating a supplier invoice, you must check the payment terms and reset them manually if required. Invoice Parking   Hold or park an invoice   Process a parked document further   Tax, Cash Discounts, and Foreign Currency   Enter or change tax information   Enter or change cash discount information   Post both gross or net of cash discounts   Enter invoices in a foreign currency   Invoices for Purchase orders with Account Assignment   Enter invoices for a purchase order with account assignment and change the planned account assignments   Edit multiple account assignment   Enter invoices relating to a blanket purchase order   Trace the resulting account movements   Variances   Enter invoices with variances   Post invoices when there is a variance between the expected total amount of the purchase order items and the actual invoice amount (when the variance is within the specified tolerance limits)   Invoice Reduction   Reduce invoices by posting an invoice and a credit memo at the same time. If you receive a supplier invoice with a deviation either in the amount, or quantity, or both, you can document this difference by reducing the invoice. The system then creates a letter of complaint.   Reduce invoices without reference to an item (total-based invoice reduction)   Messages   Create messages when supplier invoices are created, for example letters of complaint to the invoicing party (invoice reduction), and letters to a supplier if you settled a receipt yourself (ERS)   Invoice Blocks   Block an invoice manually   Block an invoice automatically If a deviation is outside defined tolerances, the invoice is posted, but the invoice is automatically blocked for payment. If the system determines the responsible person, an approval process is initiated.   Note To release blocked invoices, you can use the Release Blocked Invoices app.In the Supplier Invoices List app, you can also select an invoice with status Posted or Blocked for Payment, and navigate to the Display Supplier Invoice view. You can review the detail data and reverse or release the supplier invoice. Subsequent Debit/Credit, Delivery Costs, and Credit Memos   Enter additional costs as a subsequent debit   Enter a subsequent credit   Enter planned delivery costs   Enter unplanned delivery costs   Enter a credit memo   Note This app is providing advanced features for more complex supplier invoices that enable, for example, multiple account assignment. The Supplier Invoices List and Manage Supplier Invoices apps are intended for simple supplier invoices and therefore limited in their feature scope.
