What causes this issue?

The system couldn't determine an additional account assignment, such as
a cost center or internal order, for the posting of accruals.
&ADDITIONAL_HINTS&
The way how the system determines an account assignment during accrual
postings depends on the application component of the accrual engine.
For example:
Purchase Order Accruals (<AB>POAC</>)
The system uses the account assignment of the purchase order item. You
can enter this directly in the
<DS:TRAN.ME23N>purchase order item</>.
Manual Accruals (<AB>ACAC</>)
The system uses the account assignment of the accrual object. You can
edit this in the
<DS:TRAN.ACACTREE02>accrual object screen</>.
Another possible way to derive the account assignment is using BAdI
<DS:SIMG.BADI_ACE_DOC_ASGMT>BADI_ACE_DOCUMENT_ASGNMT_CUST</>.
