    What causes this issue?

    Customer special G/L transaction figures for &V1& are inconsistent
    concerning balance carry forward.
    The system compared the balance carry forward stored in the backup-table
    KNC3_BCK with the balance carry forward calculated by the view KNC3 and
    found that they differ.
    It is required to run the balance carry forward report SAPF010 before
    the installation of SAP S/4HANA Finance. Most likely this was not done
    for this customer account and fiscal year.
    As a result, the balance carry forward in the backup-table is wrong, and
    this wrong figure is used as calculation basis for the subsequent years.

    How to fix this error?

    If you came across this issue in a test system, make sure the same does
    not happen with the upgrade of your production system. Run program
    SAPF010 for all companies up to the current fiscal year to ensure that
    the balance carry forwards in the backup-tables are correct. This must
    be done <ZH>before</> the upgrade, running SAPF010 afterwards does not
    fix the issue.
    If you find this issue in your production system, check that the balance
    carry forwards for this account are displayed correctly. Open
    transaction
    <DS:TRAN.FD10N>FD10N</> year by year and check that the closing balance
    matches the balance carry forward of the next year. If all balances are
    correct you can ignore this error message. If they are not correct,
    contact the SAP Support in order to have the inconsistencies repaired.

    Procedure for System Administrators

    The balance carry forward is a basic step which has to be executed
    before the installation of the SAP S/4HANA Finance.
