How To Fix GL340 - Receiver ledger & stores &, but global company/ledger & do not

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: GL - FI-SL Rollup

• Message number: 340

• Message text: Receiver ledger & stores &, but global company/ledger & do not

What causes this issue?

Receiver ledger &v1& stores &v2&, but the global company/ledger
combination &v3& does not. It is also possible that ledger &V4& does
not store &V2&.
This means that only initial values will be transferred to the data
fields of this field group.
If you therefore store the field group in the receiver ledger because
it is filled from other ledgers, an evaluation will give incorrect
results. You should therefore consider whether you can transfer the
field group with consistent data using a user exit.

System Response

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

How to fix this error?

If the field group will never be evaluated, you should set it to
inactive for the receiver ledger in configuration.
Note
You can define whether &v2& is to be stored both in the ledger
definition and in the company code -> ledger assignment or the global
company -> ledger assignment (&v2& is stored if one of the two
indicators is set).
