FINS_REV_REC102 - Details

  • Error Code: FINS_REV_REC102

    Error Message: Cancel secondary journal entry &1 via its refererence document entry &4


    Summary

    This error occurs when the system attempts to cancel a secondary journal entry but requires the cancellation to be done through its original reference document entry instead. Essentially, the reversal process is being initiated on the wrong document or entry.


    Root Causes

    • Attempting to reverse or cancel a secondary (linked) journal entry directly instead of using the primary reference document.
    • Incorrect document selection during reversal or cancellation processes, often due to user misunderstanding of document relationships.
    • System configuration enforcing strict document linkage rules for reversals in Financial Accounting (FI) or Special Ledger (FI-SL).
    • Data inconsistencies or missing links between primary and secondary journal entries caused by incomplete postings or manual document changes.
