How To Fix VF420 - Wrong prefilling of "Documents to be selected" (user parameter VF04_SEL)

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: VF - Billing

• Message number: 420

• Message text: Wrong prefilling of "Documents to be selected" (user parameter VF04_SEL)

What causes this issue?

For the prefilling of the checkbox "Documents to be selected" in
transaction VF04, you have set a parameter with the parameter ID
VF04_SEL for your user. However, the parameter value is incorrect and
does not comply with the design.

System Response

The system issues message VF 420 as a warning.
The prefilling is deleted by the current processing procedure, since it
cannot be interpreted by the system.

How to fix this error?

Call transaction SU3.
Go to the "Parameters" tab.
Find the line with the parameter ID VF04_SEL and set the parameter value
correctly (see below).
Save your settings.
The parameter value must comply with the following rules:
It must be a 7-character string.
The 7 characters in the string relate to the following checkboxes:
"Order-Related", "Delivery-Related", "Rebate-Related", "Intercompany
Billing", "No Docs with Billing Block", "Documents with POD Status" and
"External Data" (in exactly this order).
An 'X' presets the checkbox field, and a blank character leaves it
empty.
The prefilling works only for the first call of transaction VF04; for
further calls, manual changes to this prefilling are taken into account.

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.
