Symptom
User wants to confirm whether it's possible to create an invoice without involving the quantity.
Environment
- Product: SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
- Logistics Invoice Verification (Public Cloud)
Reproducing the Issue
- Open the Create Supplier Invoice app.
- Enter the relevant purchase order reference and change the referenced line item quantity to 0.
- Attempt to post the invoice; the system does not allow posting.
Cause
Standard system restriction: when an invoice references a purchase order item, the quantity cannot be zero.
Resolution
- Do not set the quantity to zero when referencing a purchase order item; maintain a quantity greater than zero to post the invoice.
- If a purely value-only posting without quantity impact is required, create a value invoice without referencing the purchase order item (if available in scope).
