• Message number: 075

• Message text: Document no. & created (Blocked for payment)

What causes this issue?

The system is blocking the invoice for payment for one of the following
reasons:
A payment block has either been entered in the invoice document header
manually or adopted automatically from the terms of payment.
The <DS:GLOS.42D1547F4378D31184050004ACA6E0D1>stochastic blocking</> of
invoices is active in your company code and the invoice is being blocked
stochastically due to settings in Customizing for Invoice Verification.
Variances occur in at least one item in the invoice. Therefore a
blocking indicator has been set for the item, which prevents it from
being paid automatically.

System Response

The document will be posted and the corresponding account movements will
take place. However, you must release the invoice in a separate step
before payment can be made.
