  The SAP error message ID_FICN111 "Only GR/IR accounts allowed" typically occurs in the context of financial transactions, particularly when dealing with Goods Receipt/Invoice Receipt (GR/IR) accounts. This error indicates that the system expects a GR/IR account to be used in a particular transaction, but the account specified is not a valid GR/IR account.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Account Assignment: The account specified in the transaction is not configured as a GR/IR account in the system.
  Transaction Type: The transaction being processed (e.g., invoice posting) is expected to involve GR/IR accounts, but a different type of account is being used.
  Configuration Issues: The configuration settings in the SAP system may not be set up correctly to recognize the account as a GR/IR account.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Account Configuration:
  
  Verify that the account being used in the transaction is indeed a GR/IR account. You can do this by checking the account settings in the SAP system (transaction code FS00).
  Ensure that the account is set up with the appropriate account type and settings for GR/IR processing.
  
  
  
  Use Correct Account:

  Review Transaction Type:
  
  Ensure that the transaction type you are processing is appropriate for GR/IR accounts. For example, if you are posting an invoice related to a goods receipt, it should reference the correct GR/IR account.
