  SAP Error Message: WS725
  Text: Document &1 can be included in a collective settlement management document.
  
  1. Cause
  This message typically appears during the processing of settlement documents in SAP, particularly in the context of Collective Settlement Management (CSM) or Settlement Management in Financial Accounting (FI) or Controlling (CO).
  
  The message indicates that the referenced document (represented by &1, which is the document number) can be included in a collective settlement document.
  It is an information or warning message rather than an error that stops processing.
  It usually appears when you try to create or process a settlement document, and the system detects that the document you are working with is eligible to be included in a collective settlement.
  This means the document is not yet settled individually and can be grouped with other documents for collective settlement processing.
  
  
  2. Solution
  
  Understand the context: This message is informational, telling you that the document can be included in a collective settlement document.
  If you want to proceed with collective settlement:
  
  You can continue with the collective settlement process, grouping this document with others.
  Use transaction codes related to settlement management, such as F-44 (Clear Vendor), F-53 (Post Outgoing Payments), or specific settlement transactions in CO or FI.
  
  
  If you want to settle the document individually:
  
  You can process the document separately without including it in a collective settlement.
  
  
  No correction is usually needed unless the message is unexpected or you want to change the settlement approach.
  Check configuration: If you want to prevent documents from being included in collective settlements, review the settlement management settings in customizing (SPRO) under Financial Accounting or Controlling.
