  • What causes this issue?

    You have changed the financing details of person &v2& so that they take
    effect retroactively.
    This means that the payroll results posted to the donor budget
    structure element will be canceled up to &V1, and posted to the new
    donor budget structure element. The following situation then arises:
    However, the retroactive accounting date (&v1) is earlier than the
    <DS:DE.PRRDT>earliest possible retroactive accounting date</> defined
    in the control record.
    The management record is locked, for example because payroll is in the
    correction phase.

    System Response

    Unable to perform retroactive accounting run back to &V1.

    How to fix this error?

    When changing the financing before the earliest possible retroactive
    accounting date, you have the following options:
    Change the earliest possible retroactive accounting date to &v1& in the
    control record.
    Only change the <ls>financing assignment</> as of &v1&. This will mean
    that there will be no conflicts with the earliest possible retroactive
    accounting date defined in the control record.

    Procedure for System Administrators

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