Reversing a Payment Order (SAP Library

Reversing a Payment Order

Prerequisites

You can reverse payment orders that are already posted, provided the following prerequisites are met:

The order was created online or originates from data transfer.

Reversal is allowed (Customizing) for the transaction type with which the order was posted.

Note Note (for In-House Cash only):

If you reverse payment orders involving a currency swap, you must reverse the payment orders created for the currency swap. To do this, choose Account Management ® Payment Order ® Edit (Special) ® Reverse Additional POs from Currency Swap (see also Reversing a Payment Order from the Currency Swap).

Procedure

Choose Account management ® Payment order ® Edit (special) ® Reverse.
You can restrict the selection of the payment orders you require:

- using bank area, account number and posting date,

- using the order data (payment order number, account number, bank key, name of the account holder),

- using the posting process from which payment orders have arisen (for example, payment order entered online, transfer posting),

- using the status of the payment orders.

- Dynamic selections offer you an even more detailed selection option.

An overview of all reversible orders meeting your selection criteria appears.

Select the number of the payment order you wish to reverse per mouse click.

The system displays all the data on the payment order to be reversed.

Choose Reverse.

Confirm the query.

If you reverse a payment order whose posting date is before the current posting date, you can choose between the current posting date and the backdated posting date.

Result

The system creates a reverse item for each item of the payment order. Both the items and the reversed items each show the document number of the other item in the field Reverse document number. The system sets back any item counter that may be affected accordingly.
