  SAP Error Message:
  WS580 Doc. &1 cannot be reversed: Incorrect acct determ. for reversal doc. &2
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to reverse a document in SAP, but the system cannot determine the correct account determination for the reversal document. Essentially, the account determination settings for the original document and the reversal document do not match or are incomplete, causing the reversal to fail.
  
  The original document (&1) was posted with certain account determination settings.
  When attempting to reverse it, the system tries to find the corresponding account determination for the reversal document (&2).
  If the account determination configuration (e.g., in IMG settings for account determination) is missing, incorrect, or inconsistent for the reversal scenario, SAP throws this error.
  
  Common causes include:
  
  Missing or incorrect account determination in customizing for the reversal transaction.
  Differences in account determination settings between the original posting and reversal posting.
  Customizing for account determination not maintained for the reversal document type or transaction.
  Issues with the account keys, valuation classes, or other parameters used in account determination.
  
  
  Where it Happens:
  
  During reversal of FI documents (e.g., via transaction FB08, FBRA, or automatic reversal).
  In MM or SD documents that involve FI postings and reversal.
  When the system tries to create the reversal document but cannot find the correct GL accounts.
  
  
  Solution / How to Fix:
  
  
  Check Account Determination Settings:
  
  Go to SPRO ? Financial Accounting ? General Ledger Accounting ? Business Transactions ? Document Splitting ? Define Account Determination (or relevant IMG path depending on module).
  Verify that account determination is properly maintained for the reversal document type (&2).
  Ensure that the reversal document type is assigned the correct account determination keys.
  
  
  
  Check Document Types and Posting Keys:
  
  Verify that the reversal document type (&2) is correctly configured in Financial Accounting ? Document ? Document Types.
  Check if the reversal document type has the correct posting keys and account determination settings.
  
  
  
  Check Valuation and Account Keys:
  
  For MM or SD related postings, check the valuation class and account keys in Material Master and Transaction Keys.
  Ensure that the reversal scenario is covered in the account determination tables.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing for Reversal Transactions:
  
  In some cases, reversal transactions require separate account determination settings.
  Check if the reversal transaction is properly maintained in the customizing.
  
  
  
  Check for User Exits or Enhancements:
  
  If there are custom user exits or BAdIs influencing account determination, verify that they handle reversal documents correctly.
  
  
  
  Test with a Similar Document:
  
  Try reversing a similar document to see if the problem is document-specific or general.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Search for SAP Notes related to WS580 error for your SAP version and module.
