• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPCE/FKUA_MES026 - Invoice &1 / &2 skipped; invoice was sent on &3 ?

  The SAP error message /SAPCE/FKUA_MES026 Invoice &1 / &2 skipped; invoice was sent on &3 typically indicates that an invoice processing operation has been skipped because the invoice in question has already been sent on a specified date. This message is part of the SAP Convergent Invoicing (CI) or related financial modules, and it usually arises in scenarios where duplicate processing of invoices is not allowed.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Invoice Submission: The invoice identified by the numbers &1 and &2 has already been processed and sent on the date indicated by &3. This is a safeguard to prevent duplicate invoices from being sent to customers or processed in the system.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured to prevent reprocessing of invoices that have already been sent.
  Timing Issues: There may be a timing issue where the invoice was sent just before the current processing attempt, leading to the system recognizing it as already sent.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Invoice Status: Verify the status of the invoice in question. You can do this by checking the invoice document in the SAP system to confirm whether it has indeed been sent.
  Review Processing Logic: If you believe the invoice should be processed again (for example, if it was sent incorrectly), you may need to reverse the previous invoice or create a credit note, depending on your business process.
  Adjust Configuration: If necessary, consult with your SAP administrator or functional consultant to review the configuration settings related to invoice processing to ensure they align with your business requirements.
  Manual Intervention: If the invoice needs to be resent, you may need to manually intervene by creating a new invoice or adjusting the existing one, depending on your organization's policies.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may want to use transaction codes like FB03 (Display Document) or VF03 (Display Billing Document) to check the details of the invoice.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional context or solutions.
  Documentation: Review the SAP documentation related to Convergent Invoicing or the specific module you are working with for more detailed information on invoice processing rules and configurations.
