Document &1, output &2 must be entered only for first processing

Message type: E = Error

Message class: EI - Foreign Trade: Gen. Output

Message number: 318

Message text: Document &1, output &2 must be entered only for first processing



What causes this issue?

You attempted to issue output &V2& of billing document &V1& via repeat
processing, but the print status of this message was previously set
manually to 'error' (because of a printer problem, for example). An
output using repeat processing is not possible.


System Response

If you execute the message output in the foreground, the system cancels
the edit process. If you start the message output in the background,
the edit process of the current output is cancelled, but other, future
outputs are processed normally.


How to fix this error?

An output with print status manually set to 'error' can only be
reissued via first processing.
Proceed as follows:
Check in billing document &V1& to see if unprocessed output &V2&
exists.
If it does not, create output &V2& for billing document &V1&.
Then, start the output transaction for foreign trade outputs in the
first processing edit mode.
Reissue output &V2&.
