Symptom

"Financial data for seller missing in master data of account".

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Customer Invoicing work center.
  2. Go to the Invoice Requests view.
  3. Filter for the Inconsistent Invoice Requests.
  4. Search for Invoice Request XYZ.
  5. Select the Invoice Request XYZ.
  6. Click Check button.

The system shows the error message: "Financial data for seller missing in master data of account"

Cause

When the Invoice Request was created the customer account did not have the company maintained in the Financial Data tab.

Resolution

If the company is not maintained yet, maintain the company as follows:

  1. Go to the Customer Invoicing work center.
  2. Go to the Invoice Requests view.
  3. Search for invoice request XYZ.
  4. Select the customer invoice request XYZ and click the Edit button.
  5. Click the View All button and navigate to the Involved parties tab.
  6. Double-click the name of the party role Account.
  7. Click the View All button and navigate to the Financial Data tab.
  8. Maintain the Company there which is maintained as Seller party in invoice request XYZ.

If the company is maintained correctly redetermine the invoice request as follows:

  1. Go to the Customer Invoicing work center.
  2. Go to the Invoice Requests view.
  3. Show Inconsistent Invoice Requests and Find XYZ.
  4. Select the Customer Invoice Request XYZ and choose Check button.
  5. In the next screen choose the Redetermine button and Save the document.

Now the Customer Invoice Request is consistent, since the changes done in Account master data are synchronized with it.
