ERS — Evaluated Receipt Settlement is the process of settling goods receipt automatically.
The Vendor Invoices are posted automatically(without actually receiving from the vendor) in the
system based on the information in the purchase order and goods receipt. The settlement
documents are sent automatically to the vendor in print, email or fax form.
Before implementing ERS, there must be an agreement with the vendor about ERS process
and applicable conditions.
Advantages of ERS:
In the vendor master data, the indicators for evaluated receipt settlement must be
activated.
A Confirmation is expected for the purchase order
GR – IR Indicators and ERS Indicators should be activated in the PO
Tax code must be maintained in the PO item
ERS check box is activated by default, if you flag a vendor as ERS vendor.
MRRL is the transaction code to carry out ERS functionality.
