Symptom
While creating Credit Memo from a Supplier Invoice or Purchase Order, all items appear with quantity 0, resulting in a zero amount.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Supplier Invoicing Work Center.
- Go to Invoices and Credit Memos view.
- Search for ABC (ABC represents Supplier Invoice ID).
- Select it and Choose New.
- Select Credit Memo.
- Now the default data populates with zero quantity for all line items, resulting in a zero-value Credit Memo.
Cause
- This is expected system behavior. This occurs when the reference type in the Supplier Invoice Cost Distribution refers a Delivery document and the Product type is Material (To-Stock or Non-Stock).
- For Service item types, the system proposes the quantity as expected.
Resolution
- Go to Supplier Invoicing Work Center.
- Go to Invoices and Credit Memos view.
- Search for Supplier Invoice ABC (ABC represents Supplier Invoice ID).
- Select it and choose New.
- Select Credit Memo.
- Now in the New Credit Memo screen, manually enter the quantities in the Item level and in the Cost Distribution.
- Fill in the mandatory details.
- Choose "Actions" -> "Calculate Total amounts".
- Choose "Check" to ensure there are no errors.
- Proceed with creating the Credit Memo.
