  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WS066 - Cancelled document & is not relevant for settlement document list ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation regarding the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WS066 - Cancelled document & is not relevant for settlement document list


    Cause:

    This error occurs when you try to settle a document that has been cancelled or is not relevant for settlement. In SAP, settlement documents (such as those used in CO-PA, internal orders, WBS elements, etc.) must be valid and open for settlement. If the system detects that the document you are trying to settle has been cancelled or flagged as not relevant for settlement, it throws this error.

    Common scenarios include:

    • Attempting to settle a document that has been reversed or cancelled.
    • The document is not marked as relevant for settlement in the system.
    • The document is already settled or closed.
    • The document type or status does not allow settlement.

    Solution:

    1. Check Document Status:

      • Verify if the document you are trying to settle is cancelled or reversed.
      • Use transaction codes like FB03 (Display Document) to check the document status.
      • If the document is cancelled, it cannot be settled.
    2. Check Settlement Relevance:

      • Ensure the document is relevant for settlement.
      • For example, in internal orders, check if the order is set to allow settlement (field "Settlement rule" and "Settlement relevance" in the order master data).
      • For CO-PA documents, check if the document is relevant for settlement.
    3. Check Settlement Rules:

      • Review the settlement rules assigned to the object.
      • Use transaction KO02 (Change Internal Order) or CJ02 (Change WBS Element) to verify settlement rules.
      • Make sure the settlement receiver and settlement type are correctly maintained.
    4. Check Document Type and Posting:

      • Some document types are not allowed for settlement.
      • Verify if the document type is configured for settlement in IMG settings.
    5. Recreate or Use Valid Document:

      • If the document is cancelled, you need to use a valid, open document for settlement.
      • If necessary, post a new document that is relevant for settlement.
    6. Technical Checks:

      • Check if any user-exits or BAdIs are influencing settlement logic.
      • Review any custom logic that might mark documents as not relevant for settlement.
