How To Fix EMV123 - Contract account &1 does not belong to any collective bill account

EMV123 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: EMV - Reserved for IS-U: move-in/out

• Message number: 123

• Message text: Contract account &1 does not belong to any collective bill account

What causes this issue?

The contract account allocated to the previous contract of the
installation, for which you want to create a move-in, does not belong
to a collective bill account. However, the contract account for which
you want to process the move-in is allocated to a collective bill
account.

System Response

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

How to fix this error?

Check whether the contract account for which you want to create the
move-in is to be separated from the collective bill account. If you
separate it, all documents that are subsequently posted to the contract
account for move-in no longer go into the collective bill account. If
the move-in customer's contract account is involved in a move-in/out
that is not yet completed, complete processing of this move-in/out
first, or check wether a new contract account has to be created for the
move-in. To check whether this is the case, branch to the full screen
of the contract account and display all contracts of the contract
account that have not been terminated. Then branch to the display for
the terminated contracts of the contract account.
Example:
A business partner reports his/her move-out from premise 4812 on 01/31
and his/her move-in to premise 4913 on 02/01. Services for the
connection object allocated to premise 4913 are paid from a collective
bill. However, services for the connection object allocated to premise
4812 are not. In this case, final billing should be carried out for
premise 4812 before the business partner's contract account is
allocated to the collective bill account.
