How To Fix FMUP160 - FI document is ledger-relevant. Only FI and FM are defined.

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FMUP - Update in Funds Management

• Message number: 160

• Message text: FI document is ledger-relevant. Only FI and FM are defined.

What causes this issue?

To adjust the original FI document, you have implemented the method
FMCH_BADI_2 in the BAdI FMCH (E_ REASSIGN_ORIG_FI_DOC = 'X'). One of
the account assignments to be adjusted is also updated in the new
general ledger. This means that the document line affected by this is
not reassigned to avoid creating inconsistent data. Implementing the
method FMCH_BADI3 (E_REASSIGN_FM_NEWGL = 'X' and E_RE
ASSING_FI_NEWGL='X'), enables you to reassign the FM document and the
original FI document. The new general ledger is not adjusted.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

As of ES-PS 605, by activating the business function PSM_FM_REASSIGN,
you can modify the FI document, the new general ledger and the FM
document.

System Response

The system only adjusts FM <(>&<)> FI. The new general ledger is not
updated.
