What causes this issue?

The list of funds that you have selected for reconstructing the
<DS:DE.BUAVC_ALDNR>availability control ledger</> &V1& for FM area &V2&
and fiscal year &V3& is not consistent. The reconstruction process
involves at least one budget address or posting address assigned to a
fund (&V4&), which is not included in the list of selected funds.
In a single reconstruction run, the process can only consider the
posting addresses, budget addresses and derived control objects which
are assigned to the <ZH>same list of funds</>.

System Response

Processing stops.

How to fix this error?

Add the missing fund &V4& to your selection and start the process again.
If you receive a similar message repeatedly for other fund values, SAP
recommends that you run the process for all funds.

Procedure for System Administrators

Please verify the derivation strategies you have used for assigning
budget addresses and control objects in the Customizing of BCS budget
structure and BCS availability control. If possible, the value of the
fund should be the same in a given posting address, in the assigned
budget address (BCS budget structure) and in the assigned control object
(BCS availability control).
