• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FINS_RECON383 - Entry in BSAS_BCK without BKPF and no archiving flag: &1 message(s) ?

  The SAP error message FINS_RECON383 indicates that there is an entry in the table BSAS_BCK (which is a backup table for accounting documents) that does not have a corresponding entry in the BKPF table (the accounting document header table) and does not have the archiving flag set. This situation typically arises during data reconciliation or when trying to access financial documents.
  Cause:
  
  
  Data Inconsistency: The most common cause of this error is data inconsistency, where entries in the backup table (BSAS_BCK) exist without corresponding entries in the main accounting document table (BKPF). This can happen due to:
  
  Manual deletions or modifications of accounting documents.
  Issues during data migration or system upgrades.
  Incomplete archiving processes.
  
  
  
  Archiving Issues: If the archiving process did not complete successfully, it could leave orphaned entries in the backup table.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check for Orphaned Entries: 
  
  Use transaction codes like SE16 or SE11 to check the contents of the BSAS_BCK and BKPF tables. Look for entries in BSAS_BCK that do not have corresponding entries in BKPF.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency Check:
  
  Run the SAP program RFSEPA00 (for financial document consistency check) to identify and correct inconsistencies in financial documents.
  
  
  
  Archiving Process:
  
  Ensure that the archiving process is correctly configured and executed. If necessary, re-run the archiving jobs to ensure that all relevant data is archived properly.
  
  
  
  Manual Deletion:
  
  If you identify orphaned entries that cannot be reconciled, you may need to manually delete them from the BSAS_BCK table. However, this should be done with caution and ideally under the guidance of an SAP Basis or Financial consultant.
