We created an invoice on Sep 27, 2007. On Nov other we canceled the invoice, but the accounting document is not created. If I try to do "release to accounting" I get the following error, not sure how to fix this issue. The invoice is in USD. our local currency is CDN.

Please help me. Here is the error

Hi Vijay

This has happened because the forex values are updated in BSEG-BDIFF fields

Please follow the below procedure for release after 4.5:

It is possible to reset the valuation made with balance sheet preparation by creating a new valuation method in transaction OB59 with the RESET button flagged. Then run SAPF100 (trx f.05) with the exact same variant/paramenters that you used for your original run (with balance sheet preparation flag on again!!!). This will set the values of BSEG-BDIFF for the documents to zero.

Please, make sure that under SELECTIONS - DOCUMENT NUMBER, you specify the one document number that has to be reversed now. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT, OTHERWISE UNWANTED DOCUMENTS WOULD BE REVERSED, TOO.

Also check the OSS Note 339928 positively before doing the above

Hope this solves your problem

Can I reset this in November. When I run the trx f.05 what period I should select. we closed October. Please let me know.

I guess you already did foreign currency valuation where this customer open item also was included. I suggest you reverse valuation at first and then try to release the billing again.

Yes we do the FX reval first week of the month. Since we closed September

I assume we need to do the reversal FX valuation in November.

I never done this before, Could you please tell me how to do the reversal. What Tcode to use.

Thanks
