Procedure for the System Administrator
There are two possibilities for eliminating the error:
1.) Deactivate the validation of the business area for the external
company code &V2& (only sending system!):
<DS:TRAN.OB25>Proceed</>
2.) If you want to address the business area &V1& as a receiving
business area for external documents, you must define it in the local
client and allocate it to a cross-system business area identifier. To
do this, you can use the following steps:
a) Create a new local receiving business area:
<DS:TRAN.OX03>Proceed</>
b) If no existing, cross-system business area should be used: create
new cross-system business area (also report the identifier to all SAP
installations of the corporate group):
<DS:TRAN.OB93>Proceed</>
c) Allocate the cross-system business area to the local business area:
<DS:TRAN.OBB7>Proceed</>
