What causes this issue?

This information is relevant for you if you use one of the following

Profit center accounting (local ledgers, table GLTPC)

Joint venture (local ledgers, tables JVTO1 and JVTO2)
If you switch off Special Purpose Ledger for local or global ledgers,
the above components will also be inactivated.
Example: if you switch off local ledgers, then profit center accounting,
consolidation (via table GLT3), the reconciliation ledger and joint
venture will automatically become inactive as well.

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