SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: M8 - Invoice Verification/Valuation

• Message number: 662

• Message text: Document & deleted and saved as parked under & ( & & )

What causes this issue?

The 'parked as complete' invoice document &V1& has been deleted and
recreated with the status 'parked' under the invoice document number
&V2&.

System Response

When the fiscal year of a parked-as-complete invoice document invoice
document is changed, the system deletes the original document and
creates a document with the same data in the new fiscal year. When the
FI document type is changed by the assignment of a different number
range interval, the system proceeds analogically.
In this case, the system was only able to generate the new document in
the status 'parked' even though the original document had the status
'parked as complete'. Errors occurred preventing the automatic creation
of the invoice document in the original status 'parked as complete'.

How to fix this error?

Remaintain invoice document &V2& manually with the transaction 'Change
Invoice Document' (transaction code MIR4) by saving the invoice document
as 'parked as complete'.

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.

  Check Document Status: Verify the status of the document in question. You can do this by using transaction codes like MB03 (for material documents) or FB03 (for financial documents) to see if the document is indeed parked or deleted.
  Unpark the Document: If the document is parked and you need to process it, you can unpark it using transaction code FBV0 (for financial documents) or the appropriate transaction for material documents.
