• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 1G195 - Account is not blocked by single account balancing ?

  The SAP error message 1G195: "Account is not blocked by single account balancing" typically occurs in the context of financial transactions, particularly when dealing with account balancing and postings in the General Ledger (G/L). This error indicates that the system is trying to enforce single account balancing rules, but the specified account is not set up to be blocked for this purpose.
  Cause:
  
  
  Single Account Balancing Configuration: The error usually arises when the account in question is not configured to be blocked for single account balancing. Single account balancing is a feature that ensures that all postings to a specific account are balanced, meaning that debits and credits must equal out.
  
  
  Account Type: The account type may not support single account balancing. For example, certain types of accounts (like expense accounts) may not be configured to require this type of balancing.
  
  
  Posting Period: The error can also occur if the posting period is closed or if there are restrictions on posting to that account.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Account Configuration: 
  
  Go to the account master data in SAP (transaction code FS00).
  Verify the settings for the account in question. Ensure that the account is configured correctly for single account balancing if that is required.
  
  
  
  Review Single Account Balancing Settings:
  
  Check the configuration settings for single account balancing in the Financial Accounting (FI) module. This can typically be found in the configuration settings under Financial Accounting > General Ledger Accounting > Master Data > G/L Accounts > Prepare G/L Account Creation.
  
  
  
  Posting Period: 
  
  Ensure that the posting period is open for the transaction you are trying to execute. You can check this in the transaction code OB52.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: 
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team to understand the specific configuration and requirements for single account balancing in your organization.
  
  
  
  Testing:
