Why is my invoice or service entry sheet (SES) been rejected and what should I do next?

Invoices and SES may be rejected under two circumstances:

1. Automatic Rejection: This happens based on the invoicing and SES rules established by your customer.
2. Manual Rejection: This is carried out directly by your customer.

Rejections are triggered when the documents fail to meet the requirements established by the customer. It is essential to ensure that all invoices and SES comply with these predefined standards to avoid any disruptions in the process.

To review the reason for invoice rejection:

1. Sign in to SAP Business Network account
2. Click Workbench > Rejected invoices
3. Click the invoice number hyperlink
4. The invoice rejection notes appear across the top of the Detail and History tabs of the invoice.

To review the reason for SES rejection:

1. Sign in to SAP Business Network account
2. Click Fulfillment > Service Sheets
3. Click the SES number hyperlink
4. The SES rejection notes appear across the top of the Detail and History tabs of the SES.

If you understand the invoice rejection reason, you can edit and resubmit the invoice to your customer for payment. If you need more clarification, contact your customer.

Also, if the invoice status is Rejected and routing status is Failed, you may need to contact SAP Support to investigate the reason for failure.
