How To Fix FI036 - You cannot reset clearing if an FM component is active

FI036 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FI - TR-FM Funds Management

• Message number: 036

• Message text: You cannot reset clearing if an FM component is active

What causes this issue?

In certain cases, resetting cleared items is not possible if Cash
Budget Management or Funds Management is active.
This is always possible if the FM component cannot find any old history
data for the documents to be cleared.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

Cleared items cannot be reset in the following cases:
You have explicitly deleted the history actual line items.
The FI line items were posted before you installed the FM component.
You want to reverse, say, an invoice-check clearing, although the check
has already been cleared with a payment.
You try to reverse a clearing which affects an FM transfer (posting
with the same financial transactions).

How to fix this error?

If you deactivate the components temporarily, you must reconstruct your
FM actual data. See the program documentation for more details.
