• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message M8628 - No selection for this payment block ?

  The SAP error message M8628 "No selection for this payment block" typically occurs when you are trying to process a payment or execute a transaction that involves a payment block, but the system cannot find any relevant entries that meet the criteria for processing due to the payment block settings.
  Cause:
  
  Payment Block Configuration: The payment block may be set on the vendor or invoice level, preventing the payment from being processed.
  Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used in the payment run may not match any invoices or vendors that have a payment block.
  Document Status: The documents you are trying to process may not be in a status that allows for payment (e.g., they may be blocked for payment due to other reasons).
  Payment Terms: The payment terms associated with the vendor or invoice may not allow for payment at this time.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Payment Block Settings:
  
  Go to the vendor master data and check if there is a payment block set. You can do this by navigating to the vendor account in transaction code XK03 (Display Vendor) and checking the payment block field.
  If necessary, remove the payment block using transaction code XK02 (Change Vendor).
  
  
  
  Review Payment Run Selection Criteria:
  
  Ensure that the selection criteria you are using in the payment run (transaction code F110 for automatic payment transactions) are correctly set to include the relevant invoices or vendors.
  Adjust the parameters to ensure that they align with the documents you wish to process.
  
  
  
  Check Document Status:
  
  Review the status of the documents you are trying to pay. Ensure that they are not blocked for payment due to other reasons (e.g., disputes, missing approvals).
  You can check the document status in transaction code FB03 (Display Document).
  
  
  
  Payment Terms:
  
  Verify the payment terms associated with the vendor or invoice. Ensure that they allow for payment at the current time.
