• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /DSD/SL_ROUTE_ACC013 - Clearing is only possible when you create receipts AND expenditures ?

  The SAP error message /DSD/SL_ROUTE_ACC013 indicates that a clearing operation cannot be performed because the system requires both receipts and expenditures to be created before the clearing can take place. This error typically occurs in the context of the SAP Direct Store Delivery (DSD) module, which is used for managing the logistics and financial aspects of direct deliveries.
  Cause:
  The error is triggered when:
  
  You attempt to clear a transaction that does not have corresponding receipts and expenditures.
  The system expects that for every receipt (incoming goods), there should be a corresponding expenditure (outgoing goods or costs) to balance the transaction.
  There may be missing or incomplete entries in the system that prevent the clearing process from being completed.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Transaction Entries:
  
  Verify that all necessary receipts and expenditures have been created in the system. Ensure that there are no missing entries that would prevent the clearing process.

  Consult with Finance/Logistics Team:
  
  If you are unsure about the entries or the process, consult with your finance or logistics team to ensure that all necessary steps have been followed.
  
  
  
  Use Transaction Codes:
  
  Utilize relevant transaction codes (like MIGO for goods movements or MIRO for invoice verification) to check and create the necessary documents.
  
  
  
  System Configuration:
  
  If the issue persists, it may be necessary to review the system configuration related to the DSD module. Ensure that the settings for clearing transactions are correctly configured.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
