FINS_ML_MIG047 - Details

• The SAP error message FINS_ML_MIG047 indicates that a reset of the Material Ledger (ML) is not possible because it was already active before the migration to S/4HANA for the specified valuation area. This typically occurs during the migration process when trying to deactivate or reset the Material Ledger functionality.
  
  Cause:
  
  Material Ledger Activation: The error arises when the Material Ledger was previously activated in the system before the migration to S/4HANA. The system does not allow a reset of the Material Ledger in this scenario because it is tied to historical data and configurations.
  Migration Process: During the migration to S/4HANA, certain configurations and settings are preserved, and if ML was active, the system expects it to remain active.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Configuration: Verify the configuration settings for the Material Ledger in the affected valuation area. Ensure that the settings align with the requirements of your business processes.
  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP S/4HANA migration documentation to
