Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition 

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Access App Open Supplier Invoices List (F1060A). The Supplier Invoices list screen is displayed.    
  2. Search for Supplier Invoices .  The relevant Supplier Invoices are shown, grouped by status Posted and Reversal.    
  3. Check Supplier Invoice Detail,    In the list of the Supplier Invoices, select the invoice by clicking on the row to display the invoice.   The invoice document is displayed.    
  4. Reverse the Invoice, choose Reverse. The Reverse Invoice dialog box opens.    
  5. Enter Reason for Reversal, Posting Date.
  6. Choose OK.    

Cause

The reversal from Procure using app Open Supplier Invoices List (F1060A)/Display Supplier Invoice - Advanced (MIR4) is not a real reversal as in FI, but an inverse posting which does not always look exactly the same.  For Vendor lines there is a special logic in the accounting interface which sets a reference to the original invoice to make sure that the original account assignments are derived. This reference is used in document splitting. For all other lines the rule based split is processed. A rule based split is processed in reversals that do not have the business transaction (BKPF-GLVOR) RFBU

Resolution

The same business transaction variant should be used in reversal as in original posting:

Check the Reversal Document Type assigned to the Document Type used in the original MM posting 

See configuration activity Define Document Types (ID 101522) 

To avoid the risk of errors in the reversal process, you should choose one of the following actions:

  • In the Document Types details view, leave the Reverse DocumentType field empty. Then, by default, the system posts the reversal document using the same document type as the original document and thus ensures a correct reversal.


  • Enter a reversal document type in the Reverse DocumentType field that has the same business transaction assigned to it as the document type given in the Document Type field.

    If additional KTOSL = DIF line is created in reversal transaction see KBA: 3750765 Balancing field "&1" is not filled in line item &2 raised  for Supplier Invoice with minor differences
