3688854 - Posting of Service Entry Sheets based on an Invoice in Central Invoice Management not supported

Symptom

Automatic creation or posting of Service Entry Sheets (SES) based on an invoice in Central Invoice Management (CIM) is not supported in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Create a Purchase Order with Project WBS.
  2. Process the Invoice in Central Invoice Management, ensuring the purchase order number is included.
  3. Attempt to automatically post the Service Entry Sheet based on the invoice that has been processed in the system.

Cause

The system behavior in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition requires Service Entry Sheet (SES) approval before invoice posting for service procurement. Central Invoice Management processes supplier invoices but cannot create or post SES automatically.

Resolution

Once the service entry sheet has been approved by an authorized person, a goods receipt document is created by the system and a corresponding invoice can be created, checked, and posted. The system is designed to work as below:

  1. Create a Purchase Order.
  2. Create a Service Entry Sheet.
  3. Post the SES.
  4. Perform invoice verification after the SES has been posted.
