3802767 - ERS job selection by service performance date instead of goods receipt posting date — SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

• Users want to run Evaluated Receipt Settlement (ERS) based on service performance date rather than goods receipt (GR) posting date.
• The Schedule Supplier Invoice Jobs – Advanced app only offers selection by goods-receipt posting date; no option exists for service performance date.
• For services entered manually, the GR posting date may differ from the actual service performance date, so ERS does not align with when services were performed.
• Error MM_PUR_SES 015: “Performance period must lie within the purchase-order validity range” may occur if the service performance period is outside the PO validity.

• SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
• Fiori UI for Invoice Verification (Public Cloud)

1. Record and accept a service entry sheet (Lean Services) with a service performance period.
2. In the acceptance, set a posting date that differs from the actual service performance date (this posting date drives the GR posting date).
3. Open the Schedule Supplier Invoice Jobs – Advanced app and schedule/run the ERS job.
4. Observe that the job selects uninvoiced GRs by GR posting date only; there is no selection field for service performance date.

• Delivered-as-designed behavior: the ERS job selects uninvoiced goods receipts using the GR posting date range. The service performance date on the service entry sheet is not a selectable field for ERS job selection.

1. There is no setting in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition to make ERS select by service performance date.
2. If service entry sheets are created automatically from timesheets, no further action is needed because the GR is posted using the service performance date, aligning ERS selection.
3. If service entry sheets are created manually, before acceptance set the service entry sheet posting date to the actual service performance date so that the resulting GR posting date matches the performance date.
4. Ensure the chosen date lies within the purchase order validity range to avoid error MM_PUR_SES 015.
5. Ensure the chosen date lies within an open accounting period and coordinate with Finance, as the date affects period-related cost and tax postings.
6. Alternatively, schedule ERS runs in narrow GR posting date windows that align closely with your service performance periods.
