How To Fix GA627 - Customizing error: Business transaction groups are not current.

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: GA - Allocations

• Message number: 627

• Message text: Customizing error: Business transaction groups are not current.

What causes this issue?

For the execution of assessments, distributions, periodic repostings or
indirect activity allocations in the CO-OM application, groups have to
be defined in the current client which summarize all actual or planned
transactions. In the current client, these groups are either not
available or do not have the latest status.

System Response

To avoid subsequent errors, processing cannot be continued until these
transaction groups are consistent again.

How to fix this error?

Such errors are mostly caused by problems during a release upgrade or
by incomplete client copies; they can be solved by starting report
RK811XST (only in the current client) or
RK811XUP (in all clients).
Start one of these two reports and then restart processing. If the
error still occurs, inform your system administrator.
&Note&
You can execute the correction reports either via the development
workbench or immediately by choosing one of the two following
pushbuttons:
<DS:REPO.RK811XST>Execute report RK811XST (current client)</>
<DS:REPO.RK811XUP>Execute report RK811XUP (all clients)</>
Note that the transaction groups are client-specific. Therefore, this
Customizing inconsistency may also occur in other clients of your
system. Report RK811XST only repairs the transaction groups in the
current client while report RK811XUP corrects all clients.
