  SAP Error Message:
  WZRE_IV298 – Accrual (&1/&2) was not edited via the clearing process
  
  Meaning / Cause
  This error message occurs in the context of accrual accounting and clearing processes in SAP, typically within the Financial Accounting (FI) or Controlling (CO) modules, especially when dealing with accrual/deferral postings.
  
  The message indicates that an accrual document (identified by the placeholders &1 and &2, usually document number and fiscal year or company code) was expected to be cleared or edited via the clearing process, but it was not.
  In other words, the system expects that the accrual document should be processed (cleared) through a specific clearing transaction or program, but it was either skipped, incorrectly processed, or manually changed outside the clearing process.
  This can happen if:
  The accrual document was manually edited or reversed without using the standard clearing procedure.
  The clearing program or transaction was not run or did not complete successfully.
  There is a mismatch or inconsistency in
