• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WS063 - Document & already taken into account in settlement document list & ?

  The SAP error message:
  WS063: Document & already taken into account in settlement document list &
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs during the settlement process (e.g., in CO-PA, Internal Orders, WBS elements, or other controlling objects) when the system tries to settle a document that has already been included in a previous settlement document list. Essentially, the system detects that the document you are trying to settle has already been processed and included in another settlement run, preventing duplicate settlements.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Settlement documents are created to allocate costs or revenues from sender objects (like internal orders, WBS elements, etc.) to receiver objects.
  Each document can only be settled once per settlement period.
  If you attempt to settle a document that has already been settled (or included in a settlement list), SAP throws this error to avoid double settlement.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Settlement Document List:
  
  Use transaction KO88 (Order Settlement) or CJ88 (WBS Element Settlement) to check the settlement documents.
  Review the settlement document list to identify if the document has already been settled.
  
  
  
  Verify Settlement Period and Document:
  
  Confirm that you are not trying to settle the same document twice in the same period.
  If you need to re-settle, you may have to reverse the previous settlement document first.
  
  
  
  Reverse Previous Settlement (if applicable):
  
  If the previous settlement was incorrect or needs adjustment, reverse the settlement document using transaction KO88 or CJ88 with the reversal option.
  After reversal, you can perform the settlement again.
  
  
  
  Check for Open or Locked Documents:
  
  Sometimes documents are locked or partially settled; ensure that the document status allows settlement.
  
  
  
  Adjust Settlement Parameters:
  
  Review the settlement rules and parameters to ensure that the document is eligible for settlement.

  Summary:
