SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: VF_MEV - Billing Period-End Valuation

• Message number: 012

• Message text: Item cannot be deleted due to existing period-end valuation for &1 &2

What causes this issue?

A goods issue has already been posted for the delivery item you want to
delete. Therefore the delivery item is part of the period-end valuation
for the given period. The period-end valuation is not yet finalized.

System Response

Deletion of the item is not permitted until the period-end valuation for
this delivery item is either reversed or finalized.

How to fix this error?

Remove the delivery item from the period-end valuation by executing the
following steps:
Reverse the goods issue of the delivery item, if not yet done.
If the delivery item has already been transferred to an accrual
document, delete the accrual document. The delivery item will then
re-appear in the period-end verification worklist.
Select the delivery item in the period-end verification worklist and
choose "Revaluate". The delivery item is removed from the worklist and
is no longer part of the period-end valuation.
Delete the delivery item now.
Alternatively you can wait, until the period-end valuation is finished.
However, the period-end valuation is then wrong with respect to this
delivery item, because the sale has not been closed. You have to correct
this by means of a suitable manual FI posting.
