Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GLE_UI_ADB064 - Ledger '&1' is not a new general ledger and does not use fourth currency ?

  The SAP error message GLE_UI_ADB064 indicates that the ledger you are trying to work with is not configured as a new general ledger (New GL) and does not support the use of a fourth currency. This error typically arises when you attempt to perform operations that require the ledger to be set up for New GL functionality or when you are trying to use a fourth currency in a ledger that does not support it.
  Cause:
  
  Ledger Configuration: The ledger you are trying to access is not set up as a New General Ledger. The New GL functionality allows for more advanced features, including parallel accounting and the use of multiple currencies.
  Currency Settings: The ledger does not have the fourth currency option enabled. In SAP, ledgers can be configured to use up to three currencies (local currency, group currency, and a second additional currency), but if the ledger is not set up for New GL, it may not support a fourth currency.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Ledger Settings:
  
  Go to the SAP transaction code OB22 to check the configuration of the ledger.
  Ensure that the ledger is set up as a New General Ledger. If it is not, you may need to create a new ledger that is configured for New GL.
  
  
  
  Enable Fourth Currency:
  
  If you need to use a fourth currency, you will need to ensure that the ledger is configured to support it. This may involve changing the ledger settings or creating a new ledger that supports the required currency configuration.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP Basis or Finance team to understand the implications of changing ledger settings and to ensure that any changes align with your organization's financial reporting requirements.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, perform tests to ensure that the ledger behaves as expected and that the error message no longer appears.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  New General Ledger: The New GL functionality in SAP allows for more flexible financial reporting and the ability to manage multiple ledgers and currencies.
  Currency Types: In SAP, you can define different currency types for financial transactions, including local currency, group currency, and additional currencies.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as OB22 (for ledger configuration) and OB08 (for currency settings) to manage your financial settings effectively.
  
  If you continue to experience issues after checking the configuration, it may be beneficial to reach out to SAP support or your internal SAP team for further assistance.
