  Error Message
  WEC_PAYMENT002: No invoices or credit memos found for payment &1
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when the system attempts to process a payment (usually during payment run or manual payment processing) but cannot find any open invoices or credit memos associated with the specified payment document or vendor/customer account.
  Common causes include:
  
  The payment document number (&1) does not correspond to any open items (invoices or credit memos) in the system.
  The open items have already been cleared or fully paid.
  The selection criteria for the payment run exclude the relevant invoices or credit memos.
  The payment document is incorrect or does not exist.
  The document is posted in a different company code or business area than expected.
  Data inconsistencies or missing linkages between payment and invoice documents.
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve this error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Verify Payment Document Number:
  
  Check if the payment document number (&1) entered or referenced is correct.
  Use transaction codes like FB03 (Display Document) to verify the payment document exists.
  
  
  
  Check Open Items:
  
  Use FBL1N (Vendor Line Item Display) or FBL5N (Customer Line Item Display) to check if there are any open invoices or credit memos for the vendor/customer.
  Confirm that there are open items that can be cleared by the payment.
  
  
  
  Review Payment Run Parameters:
  
  If this error occurs during a payment run (e.g., using F110), verify the selection parameters.
  Ensure that the payment method, company code, vendor/customer accounts, and due dates are correctly set to include the relevant open items.
  
  
  
  Check Clearing Status:
  
  Confirm that the invoices or credit memos have not already been cleared or fully paid.
  If already cleared, no open items will be found for payment.
  
  
  
  Reconcile Data:
  
  If data inconsistencies are suspected, run reconciliation reports or use transaction F-44 (Clear Vendor) or F-32 (Clear Customer) to manually check and clear open items.
  
  
  
  Check Document Flow and Linkages:
  
  Verify that the payment document is properly linked to the invoices or credit memos.
  Sometimes, missing or incorrect document references cause the system to fail in finding related open items.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
