  Ensure that the leading ledger is correctly assigned to the company code.

  Check Company Code Settings:
  
  Use transaction code OBY6 to check the settings for the company code. Ensure that the company code is assigned to the correct leading ledger.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the SAP documentation or help files related to New GL configuration to ensure that all necessary steps have been followed.
