What causes this issue?

You are trying to reduce a goods receipt line (GR) with an invoice (IR).
However, the GR/IR clearing account has an incorrect financial
transaction ('30' instead of '40') in the commitment item.

System Response

The system cannot calculate a GR reduction. This is not a program error,
but rather an inconsistency in the customer master.
In order to calculate the GR reduction, Funds Management (FM) updating
has to create original records for the GR lines with value type '54' and
transaction 'RMWE'. Otherwise it is not possible to calculate the
reduction.

Correct the commitment item of the GR/IR clearing account. If necessary,
reconstruct the document in FM.

  The SAP error message FICUSTOM350 indicates that there is an issue with the Goods Receipt (GR) and Invoice Receipt (IR) accounting entries, specifically related to the GR/IR account. The error message states that a GR reduction is not possible due to a "wrong cmmt item" (commitment item) in the GR/IR account.
  Cause:
  
  
  Commitment Item Mismatch: The error typically arises when there is a mismatch in the commitment item associated with the GR/IR account. This can happen if the GR is being processed against a purchase order (PO) that has a different commitment item than what is expected in the GR/IR account.
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration of the GR/IR account may not be set up correctly, leading to inconsistencies in how financial transactions are recorded.
  
  
  Document Type Issues: The document type used for the GR may not be compatible with the expected financial transactions, leading to errors in processing.
  
  
  Open Items: There may be open items in the GR/IR account that are preventing the reduction of the GR.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Commitment Items: Review the commitment items associated with the purchase order and the GR. Ensure that they match and are correctly configured in the system.
  
  
  Review GR/IR Account Configuration: Check the configuration of the GR/IR account in the Financial Accounting (FI) module. Ensure that the account is set up to handle the types of transactions being processed.
