legers in the system. Posting utilization accruals to some of the
ledgers is not allowed.

company code, has been configured with utilization posting (UP) or late
utilization posting (UL), the &V2& can only be configured with an empty
ledger group. The empty ledger group means the postings are intended to
all ledgers in the system.
