IPM_CR008 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: IPM_CR - Intellectual Property Management: Contract Revision

• Message number: 008

• Message text: Cancellation document written off immediately due to clearing references

What causes this issue?

You have selected the <ZH><ZK>Reposting First with New Billing Document
</></> indicator on the selection screen. You do not therefore need to
perform a reposting for document &SYST-MSGV1& year &SYST-MSGV2& posting
line &SYST-MSGV3&. However, the document still contains references to
recoupment of advances that are to be reposted immediately. Since a
reposting can only be made for complete documents, the system writes the
payment with the title information for the posting line specified off
immediately and then makes a posting without title information.

System Response

A reposting document is generated.

How to fix this error?

If you do not want the system to perform an immediate reposting, you
must exclude the document number from your selection. The document is
then reposted automatically once a subsequent document is available in
the system and is reposted.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
