  The SAP error message VN2065: "Active procedure cannot be determined. Check all procedures!" typically occurs in the context of vendor invoice verification or logistics invoice verification (LIV) processes.
  
  Cause
  This error usually means that the system is unable to determine the active invoice verification procedure for the document or transaction you are trying to process. The invoice verification procedure controls how the system processes the invoice, including tolerance checks, blocking reasons, and release strategies.
  Common causes include:
  
  Missing or incorrect assignment of the invoice verification procedure in the purchasing document or vendor master.
  The purchase order (PO) or contract does not have an invoice verification procedure assigned.
  The plant or purchasing organization configuration is incomplete or inconsistent.
  The system cannot find a valid procedure because the relevant customizing settings are missing or incorrect.
  The document type or transaction type used does not have a procedure assigned.
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve the VN2065 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Purchase Order or Contract:
  
  Verify that the PO or contract has an invoice verification procedure assigned.
  You can check this in the PO header or item details (transaction ME23N).
  The invoice verification procedure is usually derived from the purchasing document type or the material master.
  
  
  
  Check Vendor Master Data:
  
  Ensure that the vendor master data is complete and correctly maintained.
  Sometimes, the vendor's country or company code settings affect the procedure determination.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing Settings:
  
  Go to SPRO ? Materials Management ? Logistics Invoice Verification ? Incoming Invoice ? Control ? Define Invoice Verification Procedures.
  Verify that the invoice verification procedures are properly defined.
  Check the assignment of invoice verification procedures to purchasing document types and plants.
  Also, check the tolerance groups and release procedures linked to the invoice verification procedure.
  
  
  
  Check Plant and Purchasing Organization Settings:
  
  Ensure that the plant and purchasing organization are correctly assigned and configured.
  The system uses these organizational units to determine the procedure.
  
  
  
  Check Document Type and Transaction Type:
  
  Verify that the document type used for the invoice or PO is correctly linked to an invoice verification procedure.
  
  
  
  Reprocess the Invoice:
  
  After correcting the above, try to reprocess the invoice or transaction.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information
  
  The invoice verification procedure is a key control element in SAP MM that ensures invoices are checked against purchase orders and goods receipts according to company policies.
  If you are customizing or troubleshooting, use transaction OMWB to check the assignment of invoice verification procedures.
  Sometimes, the error can occur if the system is customized for multiple countries or company codes and the procedure is not maintained for all relevant combinations.
  If you have recently changed any configuration related to invoice verification, ensure that all dependent settings are consistent.
