Programme SAP GM_BILL_STATUS_BLOCK - Block Items for Resource Related Billing

Purpose
You can use this program to block the actual line items (table GMIA)from being processed in resource-related billing.
The expenses incurred for a given grant are recorded in the actual lineitem table through the various components like MM (purchase orders,invoice receipts) or FI (vendor invoice). This report displays thoseline items whose billing status is not 'Billed', but 'Partiallybilled', 'Over-billed', or 'Unbilled'.
The billing status refers to the successful creation of a billingdocument with a subsequent accounting document. In contrast, a lineitem is partially or fully billed in the dynamic item processor, oncethe debit memo request without billing document is created.
You can display the errors logged so far by clicking the 'Display Log'button. The default is for all items displayed to be selected. Ifnecessary, restrict the selection before choosing 'Block billingstatus' or 'Unblock billing status' as desired. You can also navigateto the reference documents (such as the vendor invoice) of a line itemby clicking the reference document number.
To save the changes permanently, choose Save.
