Error in Amendment of B2B Invoice in GSTR-1

[TAPAN RAI]

I am getting the following error message while trying to amend an invoice relating to Dec-22 in GSTR-1.

• A record can be amended only if it is not Accepted/Modified by the counter-party.Invoice no./Note no.has already been Accepted/Modified by the counter-party..

As per my knowledge, there is no procedure for Acceptance/Modification by receiver.

What can be the issue and what is the resolution. Thanks.
