• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SE913 - Line can only be logically deleted (Parked invoice exists for SES &) ?

  The SAP error message SE913, which states "Line can only be logically deleted (Parked invoice exists for SES &)," typically occurs in the context of Service Entry Sheets (SES) when you attempt to delete or modify a line item that is associated with a parked invoice. This error indicates that the system has detected that there is a parked invoice related to the SES line you are trying to delete, and therefore, it cannot be logically deleted.
  Cause:
  
  Parked Invoice Exists: The primary cause of this error is that there is a parked invoice that references the Service Entry Sheet line you are trying to delete. A parked invoice is an invoice that has been created but not yet posted to the financial accounting system.
  Data Integrity: SAP enforces data integrity rules to ensure that financial documents are not inadvertently altered or deleted when they are still linked to other documents.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check for Parked Invoices:
  
  Use transaction code FBV0 (Display Parked Documents) to check if there are any parked invoices related to the SES line you are trying to delete.
  You can also use transaction code ME23N to view the Service Entry Sheet and check for any associated invoices.
  
  
  
  Unpark or Post the Invoice:
  
  If you find a parked invoice, you can either unpark it or post it, depending on your business process. If the invoice is no longer needed, you may choose to delete it.
  If the invoice is valid and should be processed, you can proceed to post it, which will remove the dependency on the SES line.
  
  
  
  Logical Deletion:
  
  If you still need to delete the SES line after addressing the parked invoice, you can perform a logical deletion instead of a physical deletion. This can usually be done by marking the line for deletion in the SES.
  
  
  
  Consult with Your SAP Administrator:
  
  If you are unsure about how to proceed or if you do not have the necessary permissions, consult with your SAP administrator or finance team for assistance.
