is not purely a clearing document / includes already cleared items - reversal not possible

[Former Member]

Hello There,

I had made a payment whose cheque was lost and I had to void the cheque. I voided the cheque from tcode FCH9 but the payment was not reversed.

Then I tried reversing the payment through FB08 but it gave an error "Document includes already cleared items - reversal not possible".

I tried to reverse the document through FBRA but got error again "Document xxx is not purely a clearing document".

Now in my cheque register the cheque has been voided but when I see my vendor ledger the payment is visible and cleared.

Kindly help.

Thanks.

Nisha.

Hi Nisha,

The payment document might be clear with bank statement items hence you are not able to clear this document. You can reverse the clearing document then you can reverse this document. But there is another option that you can reprint check with next check number.

FCH8 should be used to cancel this check and reverse the payment document. This means that the invoice can be reopened for payment again.
