• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_20100059 - &1 is a balance sheet account, whereas &2 is not ?

  The SAP error message CNV_20100059 indicates a mismatch between account types during a data migration or conversion process. Specifically, it states that one account is a balance sheet account while the other is not, which typically means that there is an inconsistency in the account types being processed.
  Cause:
  This error usually occurs in the context of financial data migration, particularly when:
  
  You are trying to map or convert accounts from one chart of accounts to another.
  There is an attempt to post transactions between accounts that are not compatible (e.g., trying to post a transaction from a balance sheet account to a profit and loss account).
  The configuration of the accounts in the system is incorrect or inconsistent.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Account Types: Verify the account types of both accounts involved in the error. Ensure that they are correctly defined in the system. You can do this by checking the account master data in the SAP system.
  
  
  Review Mapping Configuration: If this error occurs during a migration process, review the mapping configuration to ensure that balance sheet accounts are being mapped to other balance sheet accounts and profit and loss accounts to other profit and loss accounts.
  
  
  Adjust Transaction Logic: If the error arises during transaction posting, ensure that the logic of the transaction is correct. For example, ensure that you are not trying to post a transaction that is meant for a profit and loss account to a balance sheet account.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific migration or conversion process you are performing. There may be specific guidelines or prerequisites that need to be followed.
  
  
  Testing: After making the necessary adjustments, perform tests to ensure that the error no longer occurs. This may involve running the migration or posting transactions in a test environment before applying changes in the production environment.
  
  
  Seek Help from SAP Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance. They may provide insights specific to your system configuration or the migration process you are using.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may want to use transaction codes like FS00 (to view or edit account master data) or OBD4 (to check account determination settings) to investigate the accounts involved.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional context on handling account type mismatches.
  Migration Tools: If you are using SAP's Migration Cockpit or other tools, ensure that you are following the recommended procedures for account mapping and data validation.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
