Delivery got canceled without reversing the invoice

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I came across very strange scenario in one of our client.

In the export process below are the steps involved.

Sales order u2013 delivery (no PGI) u2013 pro forma invoice (wrt delivery) u2013 PGI u2013 Export invoice (wrt Delivery)

Some end user has canceled the pro forma invoice and then reversed the PGI and canceled the delivery, without cancelling the Export invoice, and then created new delivery u2013 pro forma invoice u2013 export invoice.

So, the question is how system has allowed reversing the goods issue and canceling the delivery without cancelling the export invoice.

Now, in system it is showing delivery as archived and pro forma invoice as cancelled, but still showing Export invoice.

System is also not allowing canceling the export invoice, as when we tried to cancel the same it throws an error that the delivery (which has been archived) does not exist.

Kindly note that the item category has been configured as delivery related billing.

Can this be possible because of any user exit? or any other reason? and what can be done?

Thanks,

Ritesh

Yes definitely, it could be due to some user exit applied at your end. If you do the same process with standard document types OR > LF > F8 > F2, I am sure, system will never permit to reverse the PGI if subsequent F2 document exists. You may also revisit your existing routines assigned in VTFL.

thanks

hi,

THis is possible if the enduser with the help of Abaper or if he has the knowledge and authorization to use ABap tables, he can edit the table and delete the relevant data as required.

This cannot be traced even by abapers.

Thanks and regards,
