GL228 - Details

• The SAP error message GL228, which states "Rollup already executed, can be partially reversed," typically occurs in the context of the General Ledger (GL) accounting module when attempting to perform a rollup operation that has already been executed for a specific period. This error indicates that the rollup process, which aggregates data from lower-level accounts to higher-level accounts, has already been completed for the specified period, and therefore, the system does not allow a full re-execution of the rollup.
  
  Cause:
  
  Previous Rollup Execution: The rollup for the specified period has already been executed, and the system is designed to prevent duplicate rollup processes for the same period.
  Partial Reversal: The system allows for a partial reversal of the rollup, meaning that while you cannot fully re-execute the rollup, you can reverse certain aspects of it.
  Data Integrity: This mechanism is in place to maintain data integrity and ensure that financial reporting remains consistent.
