3744297 - Billing document cancellation posts immediately - SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Billing document cancellation is posted to FI immediately instead of remaining in “To be posted” status.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

This is standard system behavior.

• If the billing document has already been posted, the cancellation document will be automatically posted as well.
• If the billing document hasn't been posted, the cancellation won't require posting and will be "completed" status. 

The configuration that can prevent automatic posting is the BLOCK_AUTO_POSTING in the Flexible Billing Document Posting.
