This button is unavailable at the Initial stage of the back pay batch process, as there is no previous stage to which to roll back.

Note that before processing to the next stage in the process, you need to specify all mandatory information that is required at the current stage of the process.

This button is unavailable at the Debtor Selection stage as this is the last stage of the process.
