I want to understand, why did you reset and reverse but accidentally you
only reset the payment document and no you want to reverse to reset
document. So that that document remains the same as it was before resetting
the document.

Good evening. A doc was reversed by mistake with FB08 . We took it back with FBRA (Reset cleared items and reversal). Can we reverse it again (eventually it was not mistake) with FB08? Thanks in advance,

While there are many possibilities available in SAP for reset and reversal (
as described earlier ), let us not lose sight of the robustness of the
business process. Therefore , it is imperative that an incorrect reversal is
left as it is ( in other words it would be better not to reverse incorrect
reversals).

Sorry for my misunderstanding ( I assumed- wrongly - that the reversal was
of a regular clearing instead of an original reversal).
For the following scenario, what Rocco has mentioned is correct. You could
reverse the original document again. My apologies again.

Rocco is absolutely wrong. You cannot re-reverse (using fb08) either of the
reversed or reversal documents. This discussion is being stretched
senselessly. Once a document has been reversed, the only option to
re-instate it is to create another fresh posting, as many have advised.

A cleared document normally is used to close the open item. An open item in FI module is a line item which depends on a cleared document to have its process closed. For example, let's say you didn't reverse the previous mentioned FI invoice. The vendor item needs to be cleared (imagine you should pay to the vendor 1.000,00 BRL and the cleared document will show to you the vendor has already been paid). Example:

Payment document 2000000217 in company code 7770 also contains the clearing document number 100004261 in addition to its own clearing document number in line item 001. As a result, the document cannot be reversed after resetting the cleared items.

Sir, Issued check cancellation before encashment by party, bank entry is to reversed when I am reset the cleared items using FBRA reverse document was not created. reversal reason 01 is given. Please suggest me.

Yes Sir,
I assigned the check no to payment document but not yet cancel the payment before cancel the payment. I wanted to reset the cleared items so first is it should be cancel the payment (FCH8)?

So you posted the Payment by using F-53 Post Payment; and handwrote a manual check out; did you then assign that check number to the payment document (FCH5)? That is what makes the link between the check number and the payment document.

If you simply need to re-issue a new check, without re-doing the whole payment again, then you just need to do FCH9 Void Check; handwrite a new check, and do the FCH5 step again. The Reverse and Reset is only needed if you want to re-pay the invoices again.

Purchase invoice F-43 is posting & outgoing payment is also posted F-53 & also created manual check and then I want cancel the check. We are not reverse the cleared items directly so while I am reset the cleared item using FBRA reverse document was not created. I did the above mentioned steps only. I was not canceled & voided which cheque is created manually.

when you Reverse Doc with FB08 after reversal system used to post document and assign one diocument number .Go to FBRA give that reversed document number system will pop up message only resetting /resetting with reversal then click accordingly .

Reason for this is the following:
the invoices will be open again by reset clearing. If invoices are cleared again exchange rate differences are posted again (maybe with different exchange rates). Due to the reset clearing the basis of exchange rate difference items of clearing document was gone.
That's why this clearing document must be reversed.

"The system required a reverse document to be created after resetting a clearing procedure as otherwise documents would have been generated in the system which could not have been processed correctly. The following cases require the clearing document to be reversed: - Exchange rate differences were posted."

If in the document there is a line item which corresponds to an exchange rate difference, than it is not possible to reverse the document, because the exchange rate differences were justified by the clearing of the items.

We had to deal with a similar issue last month. You do need to reset first via FBRA. There is not a standard mass reset function in SAP. Once reset you can use F.80 for the mass reversal. If you have access to an ABAP resource he or she may be able to write a quick and dirty program to run the clearing docs in mass using FBRA. We did this and it worked fairly well. I recommend also building a custom table to store the original and reversals with a date and time stamp if you will need to access for research, audits, etc.

Mass reversal is possible ( viz. many documents being reversed in one go).
But please note that for each document reversed, you would have a separate
reversal document even if you opt for mass reversal.

Diagnosis
The system required a reverse document to be created after resetting a clearing procedure as otherwise documents would have been generated in the system which could not have been processed correctly. The following cases require the clearing document to be reversed:

One document is reversed you cannot reinstate it. In order to rectify that
you again need to create those postings document.
If you can please provide some more information on this may be we can help
you out in detailed manner.

Then I tried to create a standalone credit note - without using prepayment credit from PO (to GL acc) and applied to the prepay invoice - application worked. However I cannot edit the purchase order line or change . It looks like the PO is locked until a prepayment credit is generated

Yes..checked all these and still prepayment number is stock in the purchase header table...I have seen errors before on numbering series and need an option to reset numbers or something like that on the document itself. Ended up deleting prepayment number from config package

This tutorial will discuss document reversal in SAP. The tutorial is the part of SAP FI course and you will learn about SAP document reversal (how to reverse a wrongly posted document under various scenarios).

When an incorrect entry is posted in the SAP system, we have to reverse the same or pass a rectification entry. Various situations may arise that may compel a company to correct its accounting documents. The only way to correct a wrongly posted accounting entry is by its reversal. The FI accounting document can be reversed only when:

After this, select the back-arrow button and select save button. Here in this example, we are leaving the posting date blank, so the document will be reversed on original posting date. We can see the reversed document by entering document display transaction code in command field FB03, document #5 was reversed by document #24.

We can see that the document is reversed as rent is credited and cash is debited. Although reversed document is part of G/L posting, document type for G/L posting is SA but document type for reverse document is AB, this helps in easy identification of the document.

For reversal of a reversed document, just go to document posting by entering transaction F-02 (G/L Document Posting) in the command field and then go to Menu -> Document -> Post with reference.

For mass reversal, we can select random document numbers or range of documents. We even have the option to exclude some documents from the single values and range of documents. Use buttons to make selection of document numbers, also give reversal reason as 01.

Here, we have selected Document 1 and 3 for reversal, after that we will execute the test run. We can see below that document 3 can be reversed while document 1 cannot be reversed as document was already reversed in the test run result screen.

Cleared items are the documents in SAP that do not have any pending obligations. These documents are used to offset the dues of vendor, customer and G/L accounts. In this tutorial, we will take an example of a vendor payment.

Enter the clearing document number 200004, company code, fiscal year and press save. Then, click button. Give the reversal reason 01 and press enter. The system will show a message that clearing 200004 is reset, press enter. The system will show the message that the document was posted.

Accrual of an expense is reporting an expense in the period in which they occur irrespective of the payment made and Deferral is payment made in one period, which will be reported in the later period.

We will take an example of provision for rent posting to explain the concept. Provisions are made in one month and the same is reversed on 1st working day of the next month. Enter FBS1 in the command field and provide a reversal reason and a reversal date. For example, rent provision is made on 23.02.2017 and reversed on 01.03.2017.

Goodday;
If you have created an accrual reversal document to reverse on a specific date and have realised that it is incorrect and want to delete the reversal date ie you no longer want to reverse the document on a future date, is there a way to remove the reversal date in order to reverse the incorrect transaction on the same posting date as what you posted it?
