FAGL_MIG134 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FAGL_MIG - Migration to New General Ledger Accounting

• Message number: 134

• Message text: No balance carryforward to ledger &1

What causes this issue?

The <ZK>Set Up Balance Carryforward</> indicator is <ZH>not </>set for
the ledger.

System Response

It may be that the ledger is <ZH>not </>appropriate as a source ledger
for the migration.
For the accounts that are managed on an open item basis, the opening
balance of New General Ledger Accounting is obtained by migration
programs from the open items transferred, on the basis of the account
assignments found.
For accounts that are <ZH>not </>managed on an open item basis, the
opening balance of New General Ledger Accounting <ZH>cannot </>be
transferred from this ledger split by account assignment because the
balance carryforward function is <ZH>not </>activated in this ledger.

How to fix this error?

Check whether the ledger is appropriate as a source ledger for the
migration. Note that the specification of this ledger only applies for
the transfer of open items. For the transfer of balances for accounts
that are <ZH>not </>managed on an open item basis, you can also choose
any other ledger (including those in classic General Ledger Accounting).
If there is no appropriate ledger available that also enables the
transfer of balances for accounts <ZH>not </>managed on an open item
basis and split by account assignment, you can also transfer the opening
balance for accounts <ZH>not </>managed on an open item basis from any
other ledger and post the split of the account assignments manually.
The opening balance of an account that is managed on an open item basis
is achieved in all cases by the migration programs using the information
of the migrated open items.

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