How To Fix GA534 - The reversal has not been updated

GA534 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: GA - Allocations

• Message number: 534

• Message text: The reversal has not been updated

What causes this issue?

Because &V2& has already run, old document numbers are reversed before
processing begins. Processing can only begin once reversals have been
updated. If processing occurred earlier, debits and credits not yet
reversed would be affected.
To ensure this, the reversal sets a lock (ENQUEUE EK811D) which is only
removed once updates have been made.
The processing waits until the block has been removed. The maximum time
processing will wait is determined by the profile parameter
ENQUE/DELAY_MAX. The default for this parameter is 5 seconds. Normally
this amount of time is sufficient; however, certain factors such as high
system usage can delay updates.
This is the case here.

System Response

Processing of &V2& is not started.

How to fix this error?

Wait until the reversal has been updated. You can monitor the update
with the menu path <ZH>Tools -> Administration</>. If the update is not
made due to a system error, contact your system administrator. If the
reversal is updated, restart the processing. Because reversal has been
performed, processing starts immediately.
If this error occurs repeatedly, increase the value of the
ENQUE/DELAY_MAX profile parameter. Processing then will wait longer for
the reversal to be updated. Consult your system administrator before you
change the parameter.
