• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FZ165 - Reversal of payment document &1 in test run successfully simulated ?

  The SAP error message FZ165 indicates that a reversal of a payment document has been successfully simulated in a test run. This message typically arises when you are trying to reverse a payment document in a test mode, and it informs you that the reversal process has been simulated without actually posting any changes to the database.
  Cause:
  
  Test Run Mode: The reversal is being executed in test mode (indicated by the term "test run"). In this mode, the system simulates the reversal process without making any actual changes to the financial documents.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured to run certain transactions in test mode by default, or the user may have selected the test run option intentionally.
  User Authorization: The user may not have the necessary authorization to perform the reversal in live mode, leading to the simulation instead.
  
  Solution:
  
  Execute in Live Mode: If you intend to perform the actual reversal, ensure that you are not in test mode. Look for an option to execute the transaction without the test run flag. This is usually a checkbox or a parameter in the transaction screen.
  Check User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to perform the reversal. If not, contact your SAP security administrator to obtain the required permissions.
  Review Configuration: If the system is set to always run in test mode for certain transactions, you may need to review the configuration settings or consult with your SAP Basis or configuration team to adjust this behavior.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: The error may occur in transactions related to payment processing, such as F110 (Automatic Payment Transactions) or F-53 (Post Outgoing Payments).
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on payment document reversals and the implications of running transactions in test mode.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues or provide additional guidance related to payment document reversals.
  
  If you continue to experience issues or if the reversal is not working as expected, consider reaching out to your SAP support team for further assistance.
