How to fix this error?

If data still exists in the database - even though this message was
displayed - please check your settings:
In the master record of the upper-level consolidation group
("Assignments" tab) the period of divestiture and/or acquisition of the
CG/CU must coincide with the current period in which the program was
started.
Make sure that "First consolidation at end of period" (for
acquisitions) and "Divestiture consolidation at beginning of period"
(for divestitures) are correctly set. This depends on whether the data
of the current period is processed or not.
The executed task must be assigned with suitable document types; these
document types must post to the correct posting level (02, 12, 22, or
24 - depending on the totals records involved) AND must post in the
required currencies.
Consolidation units that use the "equity method" are ignored.
