In an MCA process, the selection of accounts is subject to the following
three types of conditions:
1) Account master data
2) MCA customizing
3) Selection options - including free selections - specified when
starting the process
The system cannot detect if the current situation (no accounts selected)
is "normal" or due to an error. Check the three points listed above. In

balance-based mode will not be selected by document-based processes (and
the reverse is true).
