Invoices Received via EDI (MM-IV)
Purpose
Information can be transferred between different companies using EDI. This enables a vendor to
transfer invoice information electronically instead of in the form of a printed paper invoice. This has
the following advantages:
Fast data transfer
Prevention of input errors when manually entering invoices
An IDoc is generated for each invoice. The system posts an invoice using the data in this IDoc. To do
this, the invoice must be consistent and must not cause any error messages in the system.
( )
You can only settle unplanned delivery costs using the enhancement MRMH0002 and the customer
exist EXIT_SAPLMRMH_014.
You can post directly to G/L or material accounts by using enhancement MRMH0002 and the
customer exit EXIT_SAPLMRMH_015.

IDoc Interface
You maintain the following settings for the IDoc interface:
Field Value
Message type INVOIC
IDoc type INVOIC01
Process codes INVM: Conventional Invoice Verification
INVL: Logistics Invoice Verification
Process Flow
When processing an IDoc invoice, the system proceeds as follows:
1. It determines the invoicing party.
2. It reads the data in the Customizing tables listed above.
3. It creates the invoice.
Result
If it can, the system posts an invoice document for each IDoc.
If the EDI invoice contains variances, the invoice document is saved for background verification.
If the system cannot post the invoice, it gives the IDoc the appropriate error status. You must then
process the IDoc manually, or transmit it again correctly.
