  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message F2241 - Account &1 is an invalid reconciliation account in company code &2 ?

    The SAP error message F2241 indicates that the account specified is not a valid reconciliation account for the specified company code. This error typically occurs when you are trying to post a transaction that involves a reconciliation account, but the account is either not set up correctly or is not valid for the company code in question.

    Cause:

    1. Invalid Account: The account number you are trying to use is not defined as a reconciliation account in the system.
    2. Company Code Mismatch: The account may be valid in another company code but not in the one you are currently working with.
    3. Account Type: The account type may not be set correctly. Reconciliation accounts must be of the type that allows them to be used as such (e.g., they should be set as a customer or vendor reconciliation account).
    4. Master Data Issues: The master data for the account may not be properly maintained or may be inactive.

    Solution:

      • Go to the transaction code FS00 (G/L Account Master Record) and check the account settings.
      • Ensure that the account is set as a reconciliation account and is assigned to the correct company code.
    2. Verify Company Code:

    3. Review Account Type:

      • Make sure that the account type is appropriate for a reconciliation account. For example, it should be set as a customer or vendor account if it is meant to reconcile with those types.
    4. Check Master Data:

      • Ensure that the account is active and properly maintained in the system. If the account is inactive, you may need to reactivate it or create a new account.
