• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WP750 - Only processed documents can be reversed ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WP750 - Only processed documents can be reversed
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you attempt to reverse (cancel) a document that has not yet been processed or posted. In SAP, only documents that have been fully processed and posted to the ledger can be reversed. If the document is still in an intermediate status (e.g., parked, saved but not posted, or incomplete), the system will not allow reversal and will throw this error.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Processed document: A document that has been posted to the accounting ledger and is part of the financial records.
  Unprocessed document: A document that is saved or parked but not yet posted.
  
  The reversal function is designed to undo the effects of a posted document. Since unposted documents have not affected the ledger, they cannot be reversed; instead, they should be deleted or changed.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Document Status:
  
  Verify if the document is posted or parked.
  Use transaction codes like FB03 to display the document and check its status.
  
  
  
  If Document is Parked or Saved:
  
  Instead of reversing, delete or change the document.
  Use transaction FB08 only for posted documents.
  
  
  
  If Document is Posted:
  
  Use transaction FB08 (Reverse Document) or F.80 (Reversal of Financial Documents) to reverse the document.
  
  
  
  If unsure about the document status:
  
  Check the document header or line items for posting status.
  Consult with your FI (Financial Accounting) team or SAP Basis team if necessary.

  Summary:
