• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FCO_SFIN091 - Profile &3: Charts of accounts are different, saving not possible ?

  The SAP error message FCO_SFIN091 indicates that there is a mismatch between the charts of accounts in the financial documents you are trying to save. This typically occurs when you are attempting to post a transaction that involves multiple company codes or accounts that are configured with different charts of accounts.
  Cause:
  
  Different Charts of Accounts: The primary cause of this error is that the company codes involved in the transaction are assigned to different charts of accounts. Each company code can be assigned to a specific chart of accounts, and if the accounts being used in the transaction belong to different charts, SAP will not allow the transaction to be saved.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a configuration issue where the company codes or accounts are not set up correctly in the system.
  Data Entry Error: Sometimes, the error can be caused by incorrect data entry, where the wrong account or company code is selected.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Company Code Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code OBY6 (or navigate through the menu: SPRO > Financial Accounting > General Ledger > Master Data > G/L Accounts > Prepare for Migration > Define Chart of Accounts).
  Verify that the company codes involved in the transaction are assigned to the same chart of accounts.
  
  
  
  Review the Transaction:
  
  Check the transaction you are trying to post. Ensure that all accounts used belong to the same chart of accounts.
  If you are using multiple company codes, ensure that they are compatible in terms of the chart of accounts.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Accounts:
  
  If necessary, adjust the accounts being used in the transaction to ensure they belong to the same chart of accounts.
  If you need to use accounts from different charts of accounts, consider creating a new account in the appropriate chart of accounts.
  
  
  
  Consult with Your SAP Administrator:
