Summary :
Differences exist between Financial Accounting (FI) transactions FB60 and the Logistics Invoice Verification transactions (MIRO, MIRA, MIR7) when entering incoming invoices. MIRO focuses on simplicity within Materials Management (MM) procurement processes, hence fewer input fields compared to FI transactions like FB60. MIRO limits field selection, excluding several from FB60, such as Posting Period, Cash Discount Base Amount, and Reference Key, among others. MIRO also restricts functions like posting to a G/L account and limits changes to the reconciliation account, derived from the vendor master record. Note that MIRO creates MM documents primarily before accounting follow-on documents, impacting FI validations and substitutions.

Key words :
cash discount base amount, logistics invoice verification transactions, enter invoice documents correctly, enter incoming invoices, -order-related documents, terms vendor invoice, fewer input fields, independent materials management, process vendor invoices, vendor master record
