&V2&.

Systemantwort

Das System gibt eine Fehlermeldung aus und erlaubt Ihnen nicht, mit dieser Transaktion fortzufahren, bis der Fehler behoben ist.

Wie behebe ich diesen Fehler?

When you create a new cost account, this is possible if the G/L account
is locked for posting at the same time.
In all other cases, the following restrictions apply:
For G/L accounts of type <ZH>Secondary Costs</>, you must specify a cost
element category.
For G/L accounts of type <ZH>Primary Costs or Revenues</>, you can
configure the system behavior.
If you leave this system message as an error message, it ensures that
when a G/L account is created or changed, a cost element category is
always specified and thus also the data in the controlling area is
always written. This is the standard SAP configuration.
If you issue the message as a warning or deactivate it entirely, the
cost element category does not have to be specified when a G/L account
is created or changed. This changes the semantics of the G/L account
type. <ZH>Primary Costs or Revenues</> then means maximum use of the G/L
account. The account can, however, also be used as a G/L account of type
<ZH>Nonoperating Expense and Income</> for the controlling
areas/company codes in which the cost element category was left empty.
If you want to subsequently maintain the controlling area data (in
particular, the cost element category) for a larger number of primary
cost elements, you can do this by using transaction <DS:TRAN.OB_GLACC14>
G/L Accounts > Collective Processing > Controlling Area Data</>.
