Cancel invoice

[Former Member]

Hi experts;

     I'm an FI consultant works at customer site and there is no SD colleague. and I've a simple issue:

- If the user cancelled invoice it doesn't it has no financial impact on the FI, until the FI user reverse the entry normally from FB08, however it affects the Sales account but on the SD side it doesn't show that the amount of the canceled invoice became ZERO and still open with the same original amount.

So, is there a something the SD user should do it from his side to let the invoice be updated with the reverse entry and accordingly become ZERO?

or there is an else step on FI after the reverse FB08 user should do to update the invoice amount on SD?

Thanks in advance

Best regards;

No it wont.  From SD side, once you generate an invoice and save, the value would be posted to FI which you can see either from document flow of that billing document or via FB03.  This saved billing document value cannot changed for whatsoever reasons.  Meanwhile, due to some reason, if users reverse the original billing document via VF11, system will generate one more accounting entry for that.  This means, while initially saving a billing document, there would be debit entry in FI and after reversing, a credit entry would be there.  System will not make the value zero in the parent billing document.

 FI user reverse the entry normally from FB08

Most importantly, the above TCode is being used only to reverse FI documents and not SD documents.
