• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 6E143 - No subledger line item found for open item ?

  The SAP error message 6E143: No subledger line item found for open item typically occurs when there is an attempt to process a transaction that references an open item in the subledger, but the system cannot find the corresponding line item. This can happen in various scenarios, such as during the posting of invoices, payments, or when trying to clear open items.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Line Item: The line item in the subledger (like Accounts Payable or Accounts Receivable) may have been deleted or not created properly.
  Incorrect Document Number: The document number or reference used in the transaction may be incorrect or does not exist in the system.
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the database, possibly due to incomplete transactions or errors during data migration.
