How To Fix G3632 - Dimension &1 does not have a document type for realtime updating

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

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

• Message number: 632

• Message text: Dimension &1 does not have a document type for realtime updating

What causes this issue?

You intend to delete documents in dimension &V1& that were created from
realtime updates. However, this dimension does not have a document type
that is designated for realtime updates -- that is, a document type
that uses posting level " ".

System Response

The program cannot be executed.

How to fix this error?

Check if realtime updates in dimension &V1& record journal entries.
This is the case if one or more ledgers, which record journal entries,
are allocated to the integrated consolidation units, which are updated
in realtime. The program you are running can only be used if journal
entries are written in realtime updates in dimension &V1&.
If this is the case, the Customizing settings have become inconsistent.
Therefore, you should create a document type for realtime updates in
dimension &V1& in <DS:TRAN.CXEO>Customizing of Consolidation</>. This
document type must be identical to the document type that was posted in
the documents you are trying to delete.
