3734061 - The original reference document of the supplier invoice is not filled in the assignment field via substitution or custom logic during posting – SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

The Assignment field of a journal entry item is not populate with the Original Reference Document: the supplier invoice number via substitution or custom logic. The field appears blank.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open the App Import Supplier Invoices (F3041)
  2. Import a supplier invoice using an upload file.
  3. Post the document and review the journal entry item: the Assignment field remains blank instead of being filled with the Original Reference Document of the invoice

Cause

Available BAdIs and FI substitution rules run early during document posting and only access fields present in the substitution structures at that time. The Original Reference Document field is not yet populated at that stage which means it cannot be used as a source to fill the Assignment field.

Resolution

There is no option to substitute the Original Reference Document into the Assignment field.
