Hello,

Check whther the Post Goods Issue happened for thie delivery, if yes, the you need to reverse the same with transaction code VL09, then delete the delivery VL02N.

If there any subsequent documents are exesting, the system will not allow to reject/delete the document. First the subsequent document needs to be deleted/cancelled.

Hi,

We all are assuming that its a normal delivery document which you are talking about.

In this case you would have done PGI for the same so use transaction code VL09 to reverese it , then delete the delivery VL02N.Please delete the subsequent document in order to delete the preceding ones.

When trying to delete a del in VL02N, I get errors for every line item.

The long text is:

Billing operation already exists for item 10

Message no. VL494

Diagnosis

A cancelled billing document already exists for item 10. If you delete

the item, it will be very difficult to reconstruct the business

operation which leads to creation of the billing document and the

relevant cancellation document

System Response

Depending on the system settings, the system does not allow deletion of

the item or issues a warning.

Procedure

If the system issues a warning, it is possible to delete the item.

If it is not possible to delete the item or you do not want to, you can

set the delivery quantity of the item to 0 to deactivate the item.

Procedure for System Administration

You can control the output characteristics of this message in

Customizing.

Is this typical? Okay to proceed?

Hi ,

As all the friends said first we need to see the subsequent doc nums, first they should be reversed or deleted.

To add to this statement pls check vbfa table for the document flow .
