What causes this issue?

The profit center assigned to the cost center in the Central Finance
system is different from that in the source system. The configuration
for a cost center in the source system and Central Finance should be the
same.
For example, you repost a document to a profit center in the Central
Finance system and the value of the profit center is derived from the
cost object in Central Finance. In this case, the original value of the
profit center from the source system is overwritten by the value from
the cost object in the Central Finance. The posting will end up on the
new profit center.

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