Solution:
- Review Document Status: Check the status of the document to confirm that it is indeed settled. You can do this by looking at the document flow or status in the relevant transaction.
- Reversal or Adjustment: If changes are necessary, you may need to reverse the settlement. This typically involves creating a reversal document or an adjustment entry, depending on the nature of the transaction.
- Consult with Finance Team: If you are unsure about how to proceed, consult with your finance or accounting team. They can provide guidance on the appropriate steps to take based on company policies and accounting practices.
