  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZRE_IV032 - Reference doc. &1 has posting status &2 (not allowed with proforma check) ?

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


    SAP Error Message:

    WZRE_IV032 Reference doc. &1 has posting status &2 (not allowed with proforma check)


    Cause:

    This error occurs when you try to post a document referencing another document that has a posting status incompatible with the current posting process, specifically when the system is set to perform a proforma check.

    • The referenced document (&1) has a posting status (&2) that does not allow it to be used as a reference in the current posting.
    • Typically, this happens if the referenced document is already posted, reversed, or in a status that prevents further postings linked to it.
    • The proforma check is a validation step that ensures the document being posted complies with certain business rules, including the status of referenced documents.

    Explanation:

    • Reference document &1: This is the document number you are trying to reference.
    • Posting status &2: This indicates the status of the referenced document, such as "Posted", "Reversed", "Parked", or "Proforma".
    • The system does not allow posting with a reference to a document that is in a status incompatible with the proforma check.

    Solution:

    1. Check the status of the referenced document (&1):

      • Use transaction codes like FB03 (Display Document) to view the document.
      • Verify if the document is already posted, reversed, or parked.
    2. Adjust the posting process:

      • If the referenced document is reversed or in an invalid status, you cannot use it as a reference.
      • If the document is parked or in a preliminary state, consider completing or reversing it properly.
    3. Review the proforma check settings:

      • The proforma check is controlled by configuration or user exit/custom code.
      • If the check is too restrictive, consult with your SAP FI/CO consultant to adjust the validation logic or posting rules.
    4. Use a valid reference document:

      • Ensure that the reference document you are using is in a status that allows referencing (usually "Posted" and not reversed).
    5. If posting a proforma invoice:

      • Make sure the referenced document is suitable for proforma processing.
      • Sometimes, proforma invoices cannot reference certain document types or statuses.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • FB03 - Display Document
      • FBV0 - Parked Document Processing
      • FB08 - Reverse Document
    • SAP Notes and Documentation:

      • Check SAP Notes related to proforma invoice processing and document referencing.
      • Review configuration in Financial Accounting (FI) related to document types and posting rules.
    • Customizing:

      • The proforma check might be implemented via user exits or BAdIs (e.g., EXIT_SAPLF050_001).
      • Review any custom code that enforces posting status checks.

    Summary:

    The error message WZRE_IV032 indicates that the referenced document you are trying to use in your posting has a posting status that is not allowed when the system performs a proforma check. To resolve this, verify the status of the referenced document, ensure it is valid for referencing, and adjust your posting or configuration accordingly.
