• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /EACA/BTA_GL013 - The selected document was reversed with document & ?

  The SAP error message /EACA/BTA_GL013 indicates that the document you are trying to process has already been reversed with another document. This typically occurs in the context of financial transactions where a document (like a journal entry) has been reversed, and the system is preventing further processing on the original document to maintain data integrity.
  Cause:
  
  Document Reversal: The primary cause of this error is that the document you are trying to work with has already been reversed. In SAP, when a document is reversed, it creates a new document that negates the effects of the original document.

  System Configuration: There may be specific configurations or settings in your SAP system that enforce strict rules on document processing and reversal.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Document Status: Verify the status of the document you are trying to process. You can do this by checking the document flow or using transaction codes like FB03 (Display Document) to see if the document has been reversed.
  Use the Reversal Document: If the document has been reversed, you should use the reversal document (the document number mentioned in the error message) for any further processing or adjustments.
  Consult with Finance Team: If you are unsure about the document's status or the reversal process, consult with your finance or accounting team to understand the implications of the reversal and how to proceed.
  Review Configuration: If this error occurs frequently and is impacting business processes, it may be worth reviewing the configuration settings related to document processing and reversals in your SAP system.
