How To Fix GA425 - Partner object update has not been activated for table &

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: GA - Allocations

• Message number: 425

• Message text: Partner object update has not been activated for table &

What causes this issue?

Due to the settings in view "Partner Object Update" for table &v1&, the
relationships are NOT updated with each allocation.
Example:
Cost centers (RCNTR) 1000 and 2000 distribute costs to cost centers
3000 and 4000.
After allocation, the following records are in the totals table:

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

With partner object update
RCNTR SCNTR Amount Debits/Credits
3000 1000 100 S
1000 3000 -100 H
3000 2000 200 S
2000 3000 -200 H
4000 1000 300 S
1000 4000 -300 H
4000 2000 400 S
2000 4000 -400 H
Without partner object update
RCNTR SCNTR
3000 300 S
4000 700 S
1000 -400 H
2000 -600 H
The number of database records is much smaller without the partner
object update than with it.

System Response

Assessment/distribution may have a longer runtime in this case.
Caution:
Only the partner object update can guarantee that the total of all
document rows of a created allocation document is zero (this means that
the balance of the allocation document is zero). This is because in
this case, the system only saves receiver and sender records next to
each other in a document (see example above). If the partner object
update is not activated, then the receivers and senders may well be
saved in different documents.

How to fix this error?

Check whether the partner object update can remain inactive,
considering the above prerequisites and restrictions.
If this is not necessary, then you have the following options:
Choose "Check Customizing Settings for the Allocation" in Customizing,
then mark the given row and choose "Execute" to have the system correct
the error.
Correct the error manually in the "Change Data Fields for Allocation"
view (V_T811U).
