2.9 How do I reverse out a blocked invoice?

Updated on

Steps in the screenshots correspond to the numbers in the headings.

Once an Invoice has been blocked, you have two options:  You can MRBR to unblock and pay, or you can use MRBR to unblock, followed by MR8M to reverse out the invoice.  Here are the instructions on how to do that.  

In our example, the vendor has invoiced us twice for the same PO.  We originally see this by going to the ZPARKED report.

1. Log into SAP.

2. Type ZPARKED in the Search Criteria and hit the green checkmark.

3. Ensure that the date range will include your invoice, and that the default view of Parked and Blocked Invoices is selected.  Click the Execute button.

5. You may have to scroll all the way over to the right, but you will be able to see what is the problem.  In our case, it is Quantity.

7. Click on the Purchase Order History in the lower tabs.

8. Remembering that the header for the lines is at the bottom of the lines, you can see there are two invoices for this line.  One from 6/26 which is number 5105676501 and one from 7/10 numbered 5105676503.  Both were for a quantity of 4.

9. The PO only had one quantity of 4.

The second line shows the same doubling up. In confirming with Purchasing, the 7/10 Invoice is a duplicate.  It needs to be unblocked and reversed.

10. Click the green arrow to go back.  You are now at the MRBR screen.

11. Highlight both lines.  

12. Click on the green flag.  Each line should have a green flag at the beginning of the line. Click Save.

Click on the back arrow until  you get to the main menu.

13. Enter MR8M in the search criteria and click the green checkmark.

14. Enter the Invoice Document number in the field.

15. Double click on the checkbox and check the reversal reason until it populates the box.

Reversal Reason could be either 01 "Reversal in current period" or 02 "Reversal in closed period".

16. Ensure the Posting Date is correct.

Posting date will be the date the transaction is being completed.

17. Click Save.

18. A confirmation message will tell you the transaction has processed successfully.

19. When Invoice is reversed, it shows on the PO as negative values
