• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AA355 - Reversal not possible with trans.type & ?

  The SAP error message AA355 ("Reversal not possible with transaction type &") typically occurs in the Asset Accounting (FI-AA) module when you attempt to reverse a transaction that is not allowed for the specified transaction type. This can happen for various reasons, including configuration settings or the nature of the transaction itself.
  Causes:
  
  Transaction Type Restrictions: The transaction type you are trying to reverse may not be configured to allow reversals. Each transaction type in SAP can have specific settings that determine whether it can be reversed.
  Document Status: The document you are trying to reverse may be in a status that does not allow for reversal (e.g., it may have already been reversed, or it may be locked for some reason).
  Posting Period: The posting period for the transaction may be closed, preventing any further changes, including reversals.
  Asset Class Settings: The asset class associated with the transaction may have restrictions on reversals.
  Custom Configuration: There may be custom configurations in your SAP system that restrict reversals for certain transaction types.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Transaction Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for transaction types in Asset Accounting (Transaction code: OAOA).
  Verify if the transaction type you are trying to reverse is set up to allow reversals. If not, you may need to adjust the settings or use a different transaction type.
  
  
  
  Review Document Status:
  
  Check the status of the document you are trying to reverse. If it has already been reversed or is locked, you may need to address that issue first.
  
  
  
  Open Posting Period:
  
  Ensure that the posting period for the transaction is open. You can check this in the period control settings (Transaction code: OB52).
  
  
  
  Asset Class Configuration:
  
  Review the asset class settings to ensure that reversals are permitted for the asset class associated with the transaction.
  
  
  
  Consult with SAP Support or Basis Team:
