Documentation

Definition

A zero amount can be generated (that means the amount to be settled is zero) when using the evaluated receipt settlement (ERS) function under the following conditions:

  • If
    • you enter a return delivery or reverse posting for a goods receipt so that the amount taken is completely posted again and
    • you have not set a document selection in Customizing for the Logistics-Invoice Verification,
    • the settlement of the goods movements using ERS results in zero amounts, that means it is not necessary to create an invoice:
      Note: If you have set in the document selection that there is to be a document split for the goods movement, the system generates credit and debit memos; you can thus prevent the system from generating zero amounts.
  • If you enter invoices for goods receipts manually using the application for incoming invoices (Logistics -> Materials Management -> Logistics Invoice Verification -> Document Entry -> Enter Invoice ) and create debits for return deliveries using ERS and thereby create the invoice according to the goods receipt quantity minus the quantity returned.

    Example

    1. Goods receipt: 10 pieces

    2. Return delivery: 3 pieces

    3. Enter incoming invoice manually: 7 pieces

  • The incoming invoice is created and paid for 7 pieces, based on the quantity entered originally (10 pieces) minus the quantity returned (3 pieces).

4. The ERS run does not have to create a debit for this return delivery, since a zero amount has resulted.

Use

You can use the Delete Zero Amounts field to control whether zero amounts generated are to be deleted during the ERS run.

  • Delete Zero Amounts = X
    The entries for zero amounts are deleted by the ERS run.
    It makes sense to use this setting if you create invoices for the original goods receipt quantity minus the return quantity.

    In the log, the system shows which invoice items (among others) have a quantity of zero to be settled, that means items for which zero amounts have been generated. In the next settlement run, the system no longer lists these zero amounts.
  • Delete Zero Amounts = _
    The ERS run does not delete the zero amounts.
    It makes sense to use this setting if you create invoices for the original goods receipt quantity and create debits in the ERS run.

    Any occurring zero amounts are proposed by each ERS run and corresponding selection.
