3195757 - The Invoice Run does not work as expect when you use the Excluding option.

Symptom

Your invoice run takes a long time to process and/or does not include all expected invoice requests when you are using Excluding option for  Search patterns.

Environment

SAP Business Bydesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Customer Invoicing work center.
  2. Go to the Invoice Runs view.
  3. Show All Invoice Runs.
  4. Select the invoice run ID XYZ (XYZ represents the ID of the invoice run).
  5. Select the Execution Details of Run ID XYZ-> No invoice run was executed on DD.MM.YYYY date (DD.MM.YYYY represents the date).

Cause

You are using the Excluding option for the Search Patters for Accounts, Seller, Preceding Document or Payment Method under Inclusion/Exclusion Column

Resolution

Due to the complexity of the invoice run and execution of the same, we recommend you to create invoice run using including and between option instead of excluding option for example: Including "Between" 1 to 7 and add a new row with including 9 to 100 and so the query will be executed excluding the order 8.
