2855746 - Enter at least one allocation item with a PO reference

Symptom

While creating a Supplier Invoice via the webgui tile 'Create Supplier Invoice - Advanced' (MIRO). You receive error 'Enter at least one allocation item with a PO reference' (M8432).

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition All versions

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open the webgui tile 'Create Supplier Invoice - Advanced' (MIRO).
  2. Enter all the required header data in the header basic data screen.
  3. Click the item level G/L Account TAB.
  4. Error 'Enter at least one allocation item with a PO reference' is raised. 

Cause

If you are creating a Supplier Invoice with a Purchase order reference the system will take the Supplier automatically from the Purchase Order, but when you are creating a Supplier Invoice for a GL account item only (with no purchase order reference) you have to enter the Supplier in the header, before you try to access the GL Account TAB.

Resolution

Complete the header data by navigating to the Header Details TAB and entering a Supplier/Invoicing party, in the basic data tab enter the Currency, reference number, invoice date before trying to access the GL Account TAB.
