  • What causes this issue?

    You want to create an invoicing plan for a service item with multiple
    account assignments for which you do not expect a goods receipt. You
    have also set the <DS:DE.AA_FINAL_IND>final account assignment indicator
    </> for at least one account assignment item.
    You can set the final account assignment indicator for account
    assignment items where you are expecting either a valuated goods receipt
    or no goods receipt. If you have deselected the <ZK>Goods Receipt</>
    checkbox on the <ZK>Delivery</> tab, you can no longer create an
    invoicing plan for purchase order items that have account assignment
    items with a final account assignment indicator.

    System Response

    This is an error message. The system does not allow you to create an
    invoicing plan.

    How to fix this error?

    You can only settle the purchase order item with an invoicing plan if
    you first deselect the final account assignment indicator for all
    account assignment items of the purchase order item. The system then
    posts further quantities for the next invoice receipt to the items that
    previously had the final account assignment indicator - according to the
    distribution that you defined.
    Note: If you have created an invoicing plan for a purchase order item,
    you can no longer set the final account assignment indicator for any of
    its account assignment items.

    Procedure for System Administrators

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
