• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_20100590 - CoA &1 is country-specific CoA in company code &2 ?

  The SAP error message CNV_20100590 indicates that there is an issue related to the Chart of Accounts (CoA) in a specific company code. This error typically arises during data migration or when trying to assign a country-specific Chart of Accounts to a company code that does not support it.
  Cause:
  
  Country-Specific CoA: The error suggests that the Chart of Accounts you are trying to use is country-specific, meaning it is designed for a particular country and may not be compatible with the company code you are working with.
  Configuration Issues: The company code may not be configured to use the specified country-specific Chart of Accounts.
  Data Migration Issues: If you are migrating data from another system, the mapping of the Chart of Accounts may not have been set up correctly.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check CoA Configuration:
  
  Verify that the company code is set up to use the specified country-specific Chart of Accounts. You can do this in the SAP system by navigating to the configuration settings for the company code and checking the assigned Chart of Accounts.
  
  
  
  Assign the Correct CoA:
  
  If the company code should use a different Chart of Accounts, you may need to change the assignment in the configuration settings. This can be done in the SAP IMG (Implementation Guide) under:
  
  Financial Accounting (FI) > General Ledger Accounting (New) > Master Data > G/L Accounts > Prepare for Migration > Assign Company Code to Chart of Accounts.
  
  
  
  
  
  Use a General CoA:
  
  If the company code does not require a country-specific Chart of Accounts, consider using a general Chart of Accounts that is not country-specific.
  
  
  
  Data Migration Adjustments:
  
  If this error occurs during data migration, ensure that the mapping of accounts is correct and that the data being migrated aligns with the Chart of Accounts assigned to the company code.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific guidance related to your system configuration and requirements.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like OX15 (to maintain company codes) or OBY6 (to assign CoA to company code) to make necessary changes.

  Testing: After making changes, ensure to test the configuration in a development or test environment before applying it to production.
