How To Fix FI_E107 - BL interface table contains no lines after account derivation

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FI_E - Message Class for FM English Developers

• Message number: 107

• Message text: BL interface table contains no lines after account derivation

What causes this issue?

You are using the funds management system integrated with the budgetary
ledger (BL). Just before the BL document is created, the account
derivation process is executed in order to find the corresponding FI-GL
accounts for the interface table line items.
However, in this case, the returning BL interface table contains no
lines. The cause of this problem is probably an error in the
customer-defined account derivation since the budgetary ledger
processor is passing to the customer-defined account derivation an
internal interface table with at least two records; after the account
derivation, the returning table must contain at least two records but
the balance of debits and credits must always be zero.

System Response

The budgetary ledger processor cannot post this document.

How to fix this error?

Verify the account derivation being used. The function module name is
defined using the business transaction event (BTE) process '00104010'.
You can use transaction BF44 to identify the name of the function
module replacing one delivered by SAP 'FM_FG_ACCOUNTS_DERIVE'.

Procedure for System Administrators

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