How To Fix FAGL_EMU252 - Treasury: Different amounts in parallel ledgers

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FAGL_EMU - Messages for Euro Conversion in New Gen. Ledger Accounting

• Message number: 252

• Message text: Treasury: Different amounts in parallel ledgers

What causes this issue?

In the Treasury scenario, different amounts are posted for the different
accounting principles. You therefore cannot compare the balance
carryforwards for each company code. General ledger accounts in
different ledgers and rounding differences after a currency conversion
cannot be compared. Check the documents &1& and &2&, which belong to the
same business transaction, for any discrepancies.

System Response

The system carries out the reconciliation in all ledgers, taking into
account the treasury postings, but does not carry out a comprehensive
reconciliation in any ledger because deviations exist even before the
currency conversion.

How to fix this error?

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