Symptom
You want to disable the automatic release for all invoice request documents.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the Customer Invoicing work center.
- Select the Invoice Requests view.
- Select any To Be Invoiced document.
- Click Invoice - Advanced button.
The Automatic Release checkbox is selected.
Cause
There is no business configuration or activity which allows the editing of the options in the Invoice - Advance settings.
Despite having to select a document to enable to button (Invoice - Advance), once you remove the check from the checkbox, the change will be applied for all other invoice request documents which are in the queue to be invoiced.
Resolution
This is the system expected behavior.
To disable the automatic release, please follow the steps below:
- Go to the Customer Invoicing work center.
- Select the Invoice Requests view.
- Select any To Be Invoiced document.
- Click Invoice - Advanced button.
- Remove the check for Automatic Release checkbox.
- If you click OK, the system will open a new window with the Invoice Document to be released.
- If you click Cancel, the option selected will be saved and the invoice will not be created.
Note: The Automatic Release checkbox is data that is not stored in the system, hence every time that a refresh occurs in OWL, the Automatic Release checkbox will be selected again. This behavior occurs because the configurations set in the Invoice - Advance button are only a template to define the parameters to be immediately applied when generating the Customer Invoices.
