• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EPIC_ACTIONS130 - Payment file &1 is obsolete due to payment document reversal ?

  The SAP error message EPIC_ACTIONS130 indicates that a payment file is considered obsolete because the associated payment document has been reversed. This typically occurs in financial processes where a payment that was previously processed has been canceled or reversed, making any related payment files invalid.
  Cause:
  
  
  Payment Document Reversal: The primary cause of this error is that the payment document linked to the payment file has been reversed. This can happen due to various reasons, such as:
  
  Errors in the original payment.
  Changes in vendor information.
  Disputes or issues raised by the vendor.
  
  
  
  File Processing: If the payment file was generated before the reversal of the payment document, the system will flag it as obsolete since the underlying transaction no longer exists.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Payment Document Status: Verify the status of the payment document that was reversed. You can do this by using transaction codes like FB03 (Display Document) to see the details of the payment document.
  
  
  Recreate Payment File: If the payment document has been reversed and you still need to process a payment, you will need to create a new payment document and subsequently generate a new payment file. This can be done through the payment run process (transaction code F110).
  
  
  Review Payment Run Parameters: Ensure that the parameters for the payment run are correctly set to include only valid documents. This will help avoid generating files for documents that have been reversed.
  
  
  Consult with Finance Team: If you are unsure about the reversal or the next steps, consult with your finance or accounting team to understand the implications of the reversal and the correct course of action.
