Full invoice reversal allowed for invoice with a subsequent document

[former_member1381294]

Hi,

Usually during invoice reversal, system will not allow to reverse the invoice if there is an active subsequent document existing in the system. However, we have encountered a scenario where system allowed for reversal.

Let's say, I have this data:

June Bill, where adjustment reversal was performed

July Bill (latest bill)

When I perform adjustment reversal on the July bill and then perform full reversal on June Bill, system will allow and proceed to reverse the June Bill even though July invoice is still active.

Questions:

1. Is this a standard functionality of SAP?

2. Is there a way to disable this in the system and not allow to proceed with reversal of June bill?

Thank you.

Hi Anon,

When you 'perform full reversal on June Bill' , you may have to check the Billing Order and try to remove/break/delete the link to the adjusted bill/invoice. There is a standard t-code to do this, which I forgot, worth a try though.

Thanks,

Hi Anon,

It has nothing to do with adj reversals, Check your invoice cancellation settings in SPRO. make-sure "Document sort order check" check-box is marked incase you do not want prior invoices to get reversed if current isn't.

Hi Manoj,

Thanks for your response. However, this checkbox is already marked in our system. Just to illustrate what happens in the system:

Data 1:

June bill (normal bill, no adjustment reversal performed)

July bill (latest bill)

When I perform adjustment reversal on the July bill and then perform full reversal on June Bill, system will not allow it as there is an active subsequent invoice.

Date 2:

June Bill ( adjustment reversal was performed)

July Bill (latest bill)

When I perform adjustment reversal on the July bill and then perform full reversal on June Bill, system will allow and proceed to reverse the June Bill even though July invoice is still active.
