• Message type: E = Error

• Message number: 605

• Message text: Reason codes with automatic charge-off are not permitted here

What causes this issue?

The reason code entered is designed to ensure that the payment
difference amount is posted to an account specially set up for this
purpose. Postings of this nature usually require additional
specifications (e.g. tax code, business area). If the difference stems
from a single open item, the necessary specifications can be taken from
that item. In the case that led to this error message, however, the
difference does not stem soley from one item, which means that this
method cannot be used.

System Response

The reason code entered is not accepted.

How to fix this error?

You can either select a different reason code, which would create a new
open item for the customer or vendor OR write off the difference using
the function <LS>Charge off diff.</>. This function either takes you
into a pre-configured account assignment model or into the document
overview. From here you can enter the required difference postings.
