Symptom
A Supplier Invoice was created and no Journal Entry was posted, however the Invoice Status is Posted.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the Supplier Invoicing work center.
- Go to the Invoices and Credit Memos view.
- Find Invoice ID XYZ (XYZ represents the Invoice ID).
- Click View All.
- Go to the Document Flow tab.
No Journal Entry exists for the Invoice.
Cause
This is the expected behavior since the Invoice is a zero value Invoice. The System will not create a Journal Entry.
An accounting notification is created from SRM that will notify accounting that this posting has taken place.
You can see this with below steps:
- Go to the General Ledger work center.
- Go to the Source Documents view.
- Show Finished Source Documents.
- Find Invoice ID XYZ.
- Click Actions - View Business Transaction.
This is the Accounting Notification. However, because there was zero value, there was no need to create a Journal Entry because there was no effect on the Subledgers.
Resolution
System works as expected.
