• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FCLM_HC027 - Multiple bank accounts assigned to G/L account &1 in company code &2. ?

  The SAP error message FCLM_HC027 indicates that multiple bank accounts are assigned to a specific General Ledger (G/L) account in a particular company code. This situation can lead to confusion in financial reporting and processing, as each G/L account should ideally be linked to a single bank account for clarity and accuracy.

  Check Configuration Settings:
  
  Ensure that the configuration settings for bank accounts and G/L accounts are set up correctly according to your organization’s financial processes.
