The SAP error message
/EACA/BTA_GL013
indicates that the document you are trying to process has already been reversed with another document. This typically occurs in the context of financial transactions where a document (like a journal entry) has been reversed, and the system is preventing further processing on the original document to maintain data integrity.Cause:
- Document Reversal: The primary cause of this error is that the document you are trying to work with has already been reversed. In SAP, when a document is reversed, it creates a new document that negates the effects of the original document.
- Incorrect Document Selection: You may be trying to select a document that has already been processed or reversed, leading to this error.
- System Configuration: There may be specific configurations or settings in your SAP system that enforce strict rules on document processing and reversal.
Solution:
- Check Document Status: Verify the status of the document you are trying to process. You can do this by checking the document flow or using transaction codes like
FB03
(Display Document) to see if the document has been reversed.- Use the Reversal Document: If the document has been reversed, you should use the reversal document (the document number mentioned in the error message) for any further processing or adjustments.
- Consult with Finance Team: If you are unsure about the document's status or the reversal process, consult with your finance or accounting team to understand the implications of the reversal and how to proceed.
- Review Configuration: If this error occurs frequently and is impacting business processes, it may be worth reviewing the configuration settings related to document processing and reversals in your SAP system.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
