How to release an invoice that is already parked and completed

Question

Hi Experts,
We are writing a workflow method, where an invoice enters with status 'B' which is parked and completed in our syste.
We need to change teh status to 'E' which is released.
I tried following bapis but they dint work, can you advise please.
BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_RELEASE - Only for invoices with payment block, doesnt work for normal invoices.
MRM_INVOICE_PREPARE_AND_POST - this posts the invoice, we just want to release
MRM_INVOICE_RELEASE_UPDATE - Gives me an FI error.
thanks,

Hi
try something like:
PERFORM set_new_status(SAPLMR1M) USING    i_rbkpv-rbstat
                                  i_okcode
                         CHANGING f_rbstat_new.
Where i_rbkpv-rbstat = 'B'
and f_rbstat_new = 'E'
and  i_okcode must not be empty (try with 'PB').
and then:
  CALL FUNCTION 'MRM_INVOICE_PARK'
    EXPORTING
      i_rbkpv           = i_rbkpv
      i_xupda           = f_xupda
      i_simulation      = f_simulation
      i_rbstat_new      = f_rbstat_new
      ti_drseg          = ti_drseg[]
      ti_selbest        = ti_selbest[]
      ti_selfrbr        = ti_selfrbr[]
      ti_sellifs        = ti_sellifs[]
      ti_selwerk        = ti_selwerk[]
      ti_selerfb        = ti_selerfb[]
      i_editor          = editor
    IMPORTING
      e_belnr           = f_belnr
      e_gjahr           = f_gjahr
      e_only_parked     = f_only_parked
    EXCEPTIONS
      error_message     = 1
      user_exit         = 2
      update_impossible = 3
      OTHERS            = 4.
where f_xupda = 'U'
In a few words: try to replicate subroutine DOCUMENT_PARK
of include LMR1MF0D
(consider Srinivas advise before proceeding further)
Best regards.
