• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FKKINV683 - A reversal request exists for invoicing document &1 ?

  The SAP error message FKKINV683 indicates that there is a reversal request for the invoicing document specified by the placeholder &1. This typically occurs in the context of the SAP Convergent Invoicing (CI) module, where an attempt is made to process an invoice that has already been marked for reversal.
  Cause:
  The error is triggered when:
  
  An invoice document is being processed (e.g., for payment or further processing) while there is an existing reversal request for that same document.
  The system prevents further processing of the invoice to maintain data integrity and avoid inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Status of the Invoice:
  
  Use transaction codes like FBL1N (Vendor Line Item Display) or FBL3N (G/L Account Line Item Display) to check the status of the invoicing document.
  Look for any reversal requests associated with the document.
  
  
  
  Review Reversal Requests:
  
  Identify the reversal request that is causing the issue. You can do this by checking the document flow or using transaction FB03 to display the document and see its history.
  
  
  
  Process the Reversal:
  
  If the reversal request is valid and should be processed, complete the reversal first before attempting to process the original invoice again.
  If the reversal request is no longer needed, you may need to delete or cancel it, depending on your business processes and system configuration.
  
  
  
  Consult with Your SAP Support Team:
  
  If you are unsure about how to proceed or if the reversal request seems incorrect, consult with your SAP support team or functional consultant for further assistance.
