SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: G4 - EC-CS Consolidation

• Message number: 017

• Message text: The amount from FI doc. line & in company & is different to JV

What causes this issue?

The amount from the FI-document line &v1& is different from the total
of the related JV-document lines (all lines with reference document
line &v1&). This should not happen. The total amount for the
JV-documentlines has to be exactly the same as the FI-document line
amount. This inconsistency is the result of an incorrect handling in
the JV-IM.

System Response

Since the document is inconsistent, no posting can be done.
