What causes this issue?

The FI-GL (new) scenario &V3& is assigned to ledger &V2& in table
FAGL_LEDGER_SCEN.

System Response

A consequence of these table entries is that the system regards Profit
Center Accounting as active.
The FI-GL (new) scenarios are obsolete: In S/4HANA there is no IMG
acitivity available for maintaining scenarios. However, the system still
evaluates these obsolete Customizing settings. In order to make it
transparent for users that Proft Center Accounting is active, please
activate Profit Center Accounting:

How to fix this error?

For controlling area &V1&,
<DS:SIMG.FINSV_TKA00_PC>activate</><LS>Profit Center Accounting</> in
the fiscal-year dependent settings of the controlling area.
Because the FI-GL (new) scenarios were neither time-dependent nor fiscal
year-dependent, please activate Profit Center Accounting for all fiscal
years.
Note that activating Profit Center Accounting does not automatically
activate the "old" profit center ledger <ZH>8A</>.
<DS:SIMG.SIMG_CFMENUORK11KEF>Activating profit center ledger 8A</> is
<ZH>not</> mandatory.

Procedure for System Administrators
