How To Fix GA833 - Additional document rows generated due to delta update

GA833 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: GA - Allocations

• Message number: 833

• Message text: Additional document rows generated due to delta update

What causes this issue?

You are executing a cycle and have set the delta update to active.
However, during the repeated execution of the cycle, the system has
determined that the allocation network of the cycle has reduced
compared with the last update run execution. The system therefore has
to post subsequently with reversed +/- signs all document rows which
were not generated fully as a result of the current cycle execution.

System Response

You can display the document rows automatically generated by the system
in the line item report.

How can this happen?

During the first execution of a cycle in the update run, a sender
allocated to two receivers R1, R2. Then the cycle was changed so that
this sender allocates only to receiver R1. Due to the delta update no
reversal was executed before the cycle was repeated. This means that
the system must now add two document rows, which cancels the allocation
between the sender and the now non-existent receiver R2.
