• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FINS_CFIN_MAPPING091 - More than one active mapping entity found for mapping field G/L Account ?

  The SAP error message FINS_CFIN_MAPPING091 indicates that there is more than one active mapping entity found for the mapping field "G/L Account" in the context of Central Finance (CFIN) mapping. This typically occurs during the data transfer process when the system encounters multiple mappings for the same G/L account, which leads to ambiguity in determining which mapping to use.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Mappings: There are multiple active mappings for the same G/L account in the mapping table. This can happen if mappings were created for different scenarios or if there was an error in the mapping configuration.
  Incorrect Configuration: The mapping configuration may not have been set up correctly, leading to overlapping or conflicting entries.
  Data Migration Issues: During data migration or initial setup, multiple entries may have been inadvertently created.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Mapping Configuration:
  
  Go to the Central Finance mapping transaction (e.g., transaction code CFIN_MAPPINGS or similar).
  Check the mapping entries for the G/L account in question.
  Identify and resolve any duplicates by either deleting or deactivating the unnecessary mappings.
  
  
  
  Adjust Mapping Rules:
  
  Ensure that the mapping rules are clearly defined and that each G/L account has a unique mapping entry.
  If necessary, create a new mapping entry that consolidates the required mappings into a single, clear entry.
  
  
  
  Check for Active Mappings:
  
  Use the relevant reports or transaction codes to list all active mappings and identify any conflicts.
  Deactivate any mappings that are not needed or that conflict with the primary mapping.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, perform a test run to ensure that the error does not reoccur and that the mappings work as intended.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to Central Finance mapping for best practices and guidelines.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as CFIN_MAPPINGS, CFIN_MIGRATION, or others related to Central Finance.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes that may address known issues or provide additional guidance on mapping configurations.
  Central Finance Configuration: Review the overall Central Finance configuration to ensure that all components are set up correctly and that there are no other underlying issues.
