• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FT130 - All 4 posting keys (or none) must be payment relevant ?

  The SAP error message FT130, which states "All 4 posting keys (or none) must be payment relevant," typically occurs in the context of financial transactions, particularly when dealing with payment processing in SAP. This error indicates that there is an inconsistency in the configuration of posting keys used in a financial document.
  Cause:
  The error arises when a financial document is created with a combination of posting keys that are not all marked as payment relevant or when some are marked as payment relevant while others are not. In SAP, posting keys determine how line items are processed in financial transactions, and they must be consistently configured to ensure proper handling of payments.
  Solution:
  To resolve the FT130 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Posting Keys Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code OB14 (or use the menu path: SPRO > Financial Accounting > General Ledger > Document > Document Entry > Define Posting Keys).
  Review the configuration of the posting keys involved in the transaction. Ensure that all posting keys used in the document are either all marked as payment relevant or none of them are.
  
  
  
  Adjust Document Entry:
  
  If you are entering a document manually, ensure that you are using the correct posting keys that are consistent with the payment relevance requirement.
  If you are using a program or interface to create the document, check the logic to ensure that it adheres to the payment relevance rules.
  
  
  
  Consult with Configuration Team:
  
  If you are unsure about the configuration or need to make changes, consult with your SAP configuration team or a functional consultant who specializes in Financial Accounting (FI) to ensure that the posting keys are set up correctly.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the transaction again to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Posting Keys: Posting keys are two-digit numbers that control the type of transaction being posted (e.g., debit or credit) and the account types that can be posted to.
  Payment Relevance: Payment relevance indicates whether a line item is relevant for payment processing. This is crucial for ensuring that payments are processed correctly in accounts payable and receivable.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as FB50 (General Ledger Account Document), F-28 (Incoming Payments), and F-53 (Outgoing Payments) to understand where this error might occur.
  
  By ensuring that the posting keys used in your financial documents are configured correctly and consistently, you can avoid encountering the FT130 error in SAP.
