PA52 - Reverse an action.

Morning!

You can fix this various ways. The best way is to go back to the action that technically would have updated the field that the reversal is telling you their is no history for. Lets say its the termination date. Using PA54, pull up the HIRE or whatever your EOD action is. Add field number 27 with no value in the field, us the function code of 'A' and hit change. This will create an instance in history that the date was initialized with the HIRE action. Because that instance now exists, the reversal has a value for that field that is prior to the reversal and PA52 will blank out the termination date. Hope that helps.

Thank you for the useful information. I have similar situation with some different error. I was trying to terminate an employee and by mistake I use future date to change some information in HR11. Now I am trying to reverse an action in pa52 but it’s not letting me as the error says -“Can’t process Chg; most recent history will differ from employee.

Can someone please help me to resolve this issue. I am new to Lawson and spends more than 2 days to go through all materials but still can’t figure it out.
