  The SAP error message F5072 ("Account is managed with open items - no valuation possible") typically occurs when you attempt to perform a valuation on a G/L account that is set up to manage open items. This means that the account is configured to track individual transactions rather than aggregating them, which is common for accounts like accounts receivable or accounts payable.
  
  Cause:
  
  Open Item Management: The G/L account in question is configured for open item management, which means it tracks individual transactions and their statuses.

  Configuration Issues: The account may not be set up correctly in the system, or the valuation method being used is not appropriate for open item managed accounts.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Account Configuration:
