Define Validation of Received Invoices (tfacp1117m000)

Use this session to modify the behavior of the checks performed for various objects during the validation of the received purchase invoices. LN does not allow you to add the steps to the search criteria. However, you can modify the sequence in which the steps must be executed.

You can change a warning into an error, or set a warning to not active:

  • The message types that are set to Error during initialization cannot be modified.
  • The Business Partner Signal or the Item Signal are always warnings. You cannot set these signals to Error.

Example: When validating the Business Partner, initial the Bank Account (if specified on the Received Invoice) is checked against the Bank Account defined by the related Pay-to Business Partner. If different, a warning is logged which needs to be accepted. You can set the warning type into an error, so that a Received Invoice is not validated unless the Bank Account is changed on the Received Invoice, or the Bank Account is added to the Business Partner.

Refer to Validation action for received invoices to view the actions which can be performed to validate the received invoices.
