Cause

The 'Create Supplier Invoice - advanced' tile is the webgui version of the backend transaction MIRO. When a document is reversed from MIRO, the system checks if the user has authorisation to run the reversal transaction MR8M.

In a Cloud environment, this is an incorrect procedure for reversing an Invoice.

Resolution

An Invoice Reversal should be carried out via the APP 'Supplier Invoices List' as documented in the SAP Best practices, for example scope item J45.
