Document Resetting and Reversal

[former_member1279634]

Hi Gurus,

We have document A dated 01/31/2012. This was cleared on 07/01/2012 under Clearing Doc B and Reversal Doc created was also B.

We have to cancel Document B but unfortunately it cannot be done on FBRA nor on FB08.

Have tried to reverse document B in FBR2, but it only creates the reversal of posting keys under new Document C.

What we needed is to reset and reverse the reversal document B but doing it in FBRA only allows resetting of the document and not reverse.

Pls advise.

Thanks.

Hi Murali,

We have actually tried to reset and reverse the document in FBRA but the error message appeared

Not possible to reverse the document in financial accounting

Message no. F5673

Diagnosis

Document '233280' in company code 'XXXX' should be reversed.  However, this document was not posted in the Financial Accounting module, VBRK is, rather, of type ''.

System Response

Documents which were not originally posted in Financial Accounting also cannot be reversed in Financial Accounting.

Procedure

Reverse the original transaction.  You can display the original document from the FI document via 'Environment' -> 'Original doc.'.

Pls see below for the document flow. We would like to reset and reverse accounting doc 2333280

Regards.

Dear,

The document which you see is coming from SD, Billing. So, you can't directly cancel the accounting document. Cancel the billing and try to reverse the accounting document.

Billing document cancellation - VF11

Accounting document reversal - FB08

Clearing document reversal - FBRA

From your screen shot,

1. Credit memo is raised and accounting document created

2. Credit memo cancelled and accounting document created.

So both the transactions got nullified. You need not to do anything on those.

Any change to Accounting documents would not allow since they have come from SD.

Hope you understand

Thanks

Hi NSK,

Thanks for your detailed response.  Since the original credit memo was already cancelled, if we want to retrieve the original entry, what we can do is to recreate the billing document in VF01, right?

What we needed is to create a new credit memo for the returns delivery...

Exactly...You are right

You can re-create the Credit memo through VF01 / VF02

You can't reset the status in FI.

Thanks

Hi,

We can reset and reversal in FBRA itself by selecting resetting and reverse button then it gives first message as clearing doc B is reset and again it posts second message that doc.was posted.

Thanks.
