| Conventional Versus Logistic
Invoice Verification
Can any one let me know the basic difference between Logistics invoice
verification and normal / conventional invoice verification?
MRHR for other goods receipts.
Logistics Invoice Verification [MIRO] was developed to take into account
requirements that were technically not possible in the conventional Invoice
Verification component, such as distributing MM and FI to separate systems.
All the functions in conventional Invoice Verification are available
in Logistics Invoice Verification. If required, you can use conventional
Invoice Verification and Logistics Invoice Verification alongside each
other.
The following functions in conventional Invoice Verification are not
possible in Logistics Invoice Verification:
1. Verification of invoices with no reference in the system to
a purchase order or a goods receipt.
2. Posting directly to a G/L account, asset or material
3. Changing the account assignment in the purchase order
4. Simulation of documents
Some new functions are only possible in Logistics Invoice Verification
:
1. Unlimited multiple selection
2. Manual invoice reduction
3. Automatic invoice reduction
4. Invoice verification in the background
5. Verification of invoices with installment conditions.
6. Posting across company codes.
Two more things to note :-
1. Even though LIV can do posting across company codes it cannot
do this if there is a variance.
2. LIV cannot operate when the PO is for a 'one time vendor'.
These one time vendor purchase
orders can only be matched using conventional invoice
verification.
Finally, Points 1 and 2 are possible in LIV but you need to change the
configuration to allow posting direct to GL account.
Please refer to :-

Verification -> Incoming Invoice ->
Activate Direct posting to G/L Accounts and
material Accounts
