LIV Invoice Approval Wf

[Yates, Melissa]

I have created a task to update the posting date to the current date
prior to the release task.  This eliminated a lot of workflow errors and
the manual BDC session changes.  Now when an approver approves one
period and Accounts Payable input the invoice in a previous period, it
is seamless to the approver, AP and workflow admin.

Andy,

 

At least in our configuration this throws an error for trying to post to
a closed period.  We have a program that is run each month as a part of
the close process to perform a BDC session and update the posting date
on all FI and LIV parked invoices.  I'm by no means a configuration
expert so there may be a better way to achieve the desired effect but
this is our solution.  I would think you could also integrate this into
the workflow and have it automatically update the period just before
posting.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks,

Seth

Anyone figured this one out before?  We Park LIV invoices(BUS2081),
start the Approval process and Post after Approval.  If Approval is not
achieved before the fiscal period is 'closed' then will
BUS2081->PreliminaryPost move the posting date forward to the new
period?  Or as I suspect end in Error? 

 

Someone must have faced this issue, anyone got any answers?

 

Thanks .... Andy
