How to assign a mistakenly voided check to a payment
I would like to share my knowledge related to assigning a voided check to a payment.
Sometimes we void a check and payment inadvertently vide FCH8.
When we try to cancel the voided check payment using F110–>Environment–>Check info–>Delete–> Reset data and resetting the voiding data SAP will not be allowing to reverse the reversal.
Resetting vide FCHG also in vain.
You cannot assign the void check vide FCH5 either.
Though the vendor encashed, because of reversal in system, the payment document got reversed and vendor liability gets opened and Bank account(in SAP) will be credited as well.
Now the Bank reconciliation statement will not tally and there is a risk of paying once again for the same document.
Lets see how to overcome such a situation.
Steps:
- Create a Automatic Payment Run vide F110 for the vendor for that open item.
- New check number will be assigned for that.
- Or
- Do payment posting vide F-53
- Assign a check number vide FCH5.
- Now
- Go to FCHT give the recent payment document’s check number in the Data on the First check tab and enter the voided check to be assigned in the Data on the Second check tab.
Now what happens is the voided check is assigned to the new payment document and new check is assigned to the old payment document and it is showed as void.
I have tried to make the blog as much short and sweet as possible, but do not missed out any key points.
Hope this blog helps.
I expect your valuable feedback either positive or negative. Positive feedbacks for appreciation and negative feedbacks for correcting mistakes.

Hi Sethuraman,
Need your advise on a similar issue.
My user has voided a check via fch3 accidentally, which is in-between the check lot.
E.g.: Check voided number is 100 and the current check number status is 200.
Now the user has made the payment via F-53 and wants to use the voided check by doing manual posting through FCH5.
I tried deleting the void check data via FCHE but unable to do. As below error message pops up
Last check 614078 and number status 614230 are not the same
Message No. FIBL575.
Could you please advise any solution on the above issue.
Thanks
