How To Fix G3612 - Selection contains FI documents without the assigned Cons document

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: G3 - Messages for SAP Consolidation: Integration

• Message number: 612

• Message text: Selection contains FI documents without the assigned Cons document

What causes this issue?

FI documents were found for which the selection did not contain an no
assigned Consolidation document. This may be due to one of several
reasons:
The selection criteria used to select the Consolidation documents were
too restrictive. Consequently, only some of the Consolidation documents
assigned to the FI documents to be analyzed were actually included in
the analysis.
For some FI documents, no documents were updated in Consolidation.
This may be due to errors in Customizing.
However, even if your Customizing is correct, no document is updated in
Consolidation if the document to be posted there only contains zeros.
This can be the case when the document in Financial Accounting show a
zero balance for each Consolidation item. That alone is not enough,
however, because the individual lines of the Consolidation document may
differ in other account assignments (such as that to the consolidation
unit in business area consolidation) or in subassignments. In this case
no zeros would be posted in the Consolidation document, even though the
values would yield zero when summarized by Consolidation item.

How to fix this error?

First be sure that the situation described above is not the cause. If
you still find FI documents without an assigned Consolidation document
which should exist based on the above criteria, post these documents
subsequently from Financial Accounting to Consolidation.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message G3612 - Selection contains FI documents without the assigned Cons document ?

  The SAP error message G3612 indicates that there are Financial Accounting (FI) documents in your selection that do not have an assigned Controlling (CO) document. This typically occurs when you are trying to execute a report or transaction that requires a link between FI and CO documents, but some of the FI documents in your selection do not have corresponding CO documents.
  Cause:
  
  Missing CO Assignment: The FI documents were created without a corresponding CO assignment. This can happen if the document was posted directly to FI without going through the CO module.
  Incorrect Document Type: The document type used for posting may not be configured to create a CO document.
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration settings that govern the relationship between FI and CO.
  Data Migration Issues: If data was migrated from another system, some documents may not have been properly linked.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Document Assignment: Review the FI documents in question to see if they have a corresponding CO document. You can do this by checking the document details in the FI module.
  Post Missing CO Documents: If the FI documents should have CO assignments, you may need to create the corresponding CO documents manually or adjust the original postings.
  Review Configuration: Ensure that the configuration settings for the document types in both FI and CO are set up correctly to allow for the automatic creation of CO documents when FI documents are posted.
  Use Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like FB03 (Display Document) to view the FI documents and KSB1 (Cost Centers: Actual Line Items) to check for CO assignments.
  Consult with SAP Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP team for further assistance.
