• Message text: The document cannot be reversed (see long text)

What causes this issue?

The document you want to reverse is updated in ledgers that do not
write line items. You cannot therefore reverse the document.
Example: Two ledgers L1 and L2
L1 with LI Ledger only stores account
L2 without LI Ledger stores account and cost center
Postings are made to account 400000, cost center 4711, amount 100.-.
If document reversal were allowed, the following summary records would
be updated in ledger L2 since the reversal is created on the basis of
the line items from L1:
-4000004711100.
400000 -100.- => is no longer correct

System Response

The system cancels the reversal transaction.

How to fix this error?

You must reverse the document using a normal FI-SL posting (transaction
GB01 or GB11).
