During year-end setup, a voucher series was created for all voucher types, following previous practice.
However, voucher type PV (Payment Voucher) was unintentionally made available for Supplier Invoice posting (User Group AC).

Result:

  • Invoice could be Preliminary Posted

  • But Final Posting was blocked by IFS (control worked as designed)

  • Invoice stuck in PaidPrelPosted state due to wrong voucher type usage

Please advise me. i dont know what to do

Hi, 

Every voucher type belongs to one or more function groups. The function group is listed on the bottom of the voucher type screen.   The function group is what enables or links the voucher type to IFS functionality.   

In your case, you want to finally post the invoice. Function group I does not allow the final posting. You need to allow a second function group J.     

Enable multiple function groups - a check box on the voucher type. 

Then allow that function group to be used for the user group, See the enter / approve / enter and approve / default voucher type. 

 

Best Regards, 

Thomas
