SAP Error Message - Details

  • Message type: E = Error

  • Message class: CNV_20100 - Messageclass for chart of account conversion

  • Message number: 227

  • Message text: &1 (G/L acct) and &2 (primary cost element in CoAr &4 into account &3

  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    The system found that the account &V1& is meant to be merged with the
    primary cost element &V2& into &V3&. &V1& is defined as a G/L account,
    but not a cost element in controlling area &V4&, whereas &V2& is defined
    as a G/L account as well as a cost element in controlling area &V4&.
    (From a technical perspective, this means that &V1& has a record in the
    table SKB1, but not in the table CSKB, wheras &V2& has both.)
    After the conversion, target account &V3& would be a primary cost
    element. In this case, the system would assume that all FI postings were
    transferred to CO accordingly. However this is not true for &V1&, which
    would mean that financials and controlling data would be inconsistent
    after the conversion.

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    System Response

    Error
    From a technical perspective, this message can be ignored.
    This may make sense in the following cases:
    No postings to the respective accounts/cost elements have been made.
    The respective accounts and cost elements are not used any longer and
    are meant to be merged into a dummy account.

    How to fix this error?

    Analyze the situation and either change the mapping table so that G/L
    accounts are not merged with primary cost elements, or decide to ignore
    the message because one of the prerequisites described above applies.
