• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FAGL_SWITCH_OP105 - Balance of ledger &1 differs from balance of line items of the account ?

  The SAP error message FAGL_SWITCH_OP105 indicates that there is a discrepancy between the balance of a ledger and the balance of the line items for a specific account. This error typically arises during the reconciliation process or when performing operations that require consistency between the general ledger (G/L) and the line item data.
  Cause:
  
  
  Data Inconsistency: The most common cause of this error is a mismatch between the total balance of the account in the ledger and the sum of the line items. This can occur due to:
  
  Manual adjustments or postings that were not properly recorded.
  Data corruption or inconsistencies in the database.
  Incorrectly executed transactions that did not update both the ledger and line items.
  Missing or incomplete data due to failed batch jobs or errors during data migration.
  
  
  
  Open Items: If there are open items in the account that have not been cleared, this can also lead to discrepancies.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration settings in the financial accounting module can lead to inconsistencies.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Reconcile Balances: 
  
  Check the balance of the account in the ledger (transaction code: FS10N) and compare it with the sum of the line items (transaction code: FBL3N).
  Identify any discrepancies and investigate the line items that contribute to the difference.
  
  
  
  Analyze Open Items: 
  
  Use transaction code FBL1N or FBL3N to review open items and ensure they are cleared appropriately.
  
  
  
  Check for Manual Postings:
