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

After this you can try again to clear the invoice documents with
payment document &V1& &V2&. Since this information is not available in
the system, (and the old invoices may have been cleared with other
payment documents), this has to be done manually.
