• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VN210 - Assigned procedure cannot be determined. Check is terminated. ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message VN210 - "Assigned procedure cannot be determined. Check is terminated."
  
  Error Message:
  VN210 - Assigned procedure cannot be determined. Check is terminated.
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs during the invoice verification process in SAP MM (Materials Management) when the system is unable to determine the correct invoice verification procedure to apply for the vendor invoice. The invoice verification procedure controls how the system processes the invoice, including tolerance checks, blocking reasons, and other validations.
  The system determines the invoice verification procedure based on the combination of:
  
  Vendor account group
  Company code
  Purchasing organization
  Document type
  Invoice verification procedure configuration
  
  If the system cannot find a valid procedure assigned for the vendor or the combination of parameters, it throws this error and terminates the invoice verification.
  
  Common Reasons:
  
  Missing or incorrect assignment of invoice verification procedure in the vendor master record.
  Invoice verification procedure not maintained for the company code or purchasing organization.
  Vendor master data incomplete or inconsistent, especially in the invoice verification area.
  Customizing settings missing or incorrect in the IMG path related to invoice verification procedures.
  Document type or transaction type mismatch causing the system to fail in determining the procedure.
  
  
  Where to Check / Configuration Paths:
  
  
  Vendor Master Data:
  
  Transaction: XK02 or FK02
  Check the Invoice Verification tab for the assigned invoice verification procedure.
  
  
  
  Assign Invoice Verification Procedure to Vendor Account Group:
  
  IMG Path:
  
  SPRO -> Materials Management -> Logistics Invoice Verification -> Incoming Invoice -> Control -> Assign Invoice Verification Procedure to Vendor Account Group
  
  
  
  Maintain Invoice Verification Procedures:
  
  IMG Path:
  
  SPRO -> Materials Management -> Logistics Invoice Verification -> Incoming Invoice -> Control -> Define Invoice Verification Procedures
  
  
  
  Assign Invoice Verification Procedure to Company Code:
  
  IMG Path:
  
  SPRO -> Materials Management -> Logistics Invoice Verification -> Incoming Invoice -> Control -> Assign Invoice Verification Procedure to Company Code
  
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Vendor Master Data:
  
  Go to vendor master (transaction XK02 or FK02).
  Navigate to the Invoice Verification tab.
  Ensure that the Invoice Verification Procedure field is filled correctly.
  If blank or incorrect, assign the correct procedure.
  
  
  
  Verify Customizing Settings:
  
  Ensure that the invoice verification procedure is properly defined in the system.
  Check that the procedure is assigned to the relevant vendor account group and company code.
  If missing, maintain the assignments in SPRO as per the paths above.
  
  
  
  Check Document Type and Transaction Type:
  
  Verify that the document type used for the invoice is correctly configured and linked to the invoice verification procedure.
  
  
  
  Reprocess the Invoice:
  
  After correcting the master data or customizing, retry the invoice verification.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Notes:
  
  Invoice verification procedures control tolerance limits, blocking reasons, and other invoice processing rules.
  This error is common when new vendors are created but the invoice verification procedure is not assigned.
  Sometimes, this error can also occur if the vendor master data is created in one client or system and not properly replicated or maintained in another.
