How To Fix GA428 - Check indicator "Without summarization" for field &.

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: GA - Allocations

• Message number: 428

• Message text: Check indicator "Without summarization" for field &.

What causes this issue?

Normally, the system summarizes via a field not otherwise mentioned in a
cycle definition. In some cases, however, you may have reasons for not
summarizing with such a field.
Therefore, FI-SL Customizing offers the indicator "Without
summarization" in the field use settings for assessment/distribution.
If this indicator is active, the system should not actually use this
field for summarization, meaning the field values move from the sender
records to the recevier records.
Activating the indicator automatically sets field T811I-NVFLG to D and
field T811I-INHER to X. Only if both fields are set in table T811I will
the indicator work as intended.
During checks of field use for field &V1&, the system found that neither
field holds the correct values.

System Response

The allocation may contain incorrect results.

How to fix this error?

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 by using view "Maintain Field Use for
Allocation" (V_T811I).
