how do we cancel an invoice that has been cancelled, but delivery is marked as fully invoiced

[Former Member]

Hello,

We have an invoice that was cancelled and then the cancellation was cancelled.  Everything I have found either refers to a release older than ECC 6.0, or does not apply to this situation.

Any help is appreciated!

Hallo Bloom,

I also experianced same problem with my client. Hope below information will help to you.

* F2 Invoice 969015445 was successfully created on 31.07.2013. Accounting Document also successfull created.
*Now users wanted to cancel this F2 Invoice due to wrong material chosen for the Sales Order(they want to reverse the entire flow and set Reason for Rejection for the SO Line Item)
*They Created the S1cancellation  invoice on 13.08.2013. this S1 Invoice has not created the Accounting Document.

The reason  for the S1 invoice not to have accounting document:-

The open items in the F2 Invoice was re-valuated in the month end(FI activity).  During this re-valuation, since the Exchange rate got changed ,the excess amount got saved in BSEG table(FI Table).
In order to release the S1 invoice to accounting, this excess amount stored in BSEG table needs to be cleared through the transaction F.05. Our FI support team had given a clear instruction to the users to clear the excess amount in the BSEG table and then release the S1 document to accounting.

But unfortunately  the users have done a wrong workaround here.They cancelled the S1 cancellation Invoice again with an S2 cancellation invoice which again did not have an accounting document.

After the creation of S2 cancellation invoice, the users ran the F.05 report which did not yield any result (Wrong practice).

Now if we try to cancel the F2 Invoice again,it doesn't allow and prompts message that the Invoice is already cancelled.

sukumar,

Lot of good things in your post! Thanks!

One comment - Once a billing document (F2 type or any other) is cancelled, then it can not be cancelled again. Would you agree?
