    code for investment measures). It has a
    <DS:GLOS.Distribution_rule>distribution rule</> for company code &V2&.
    The receiver of this distribution rule is either a
    <DS:GLOS.General_Ledger_account>General Ledger account</>, a
    <DS:GLOS.Material>material</> or an <DS:GLOS.Asset>Asset</>.

    How to fix this error?

    It is not normally possible to enter a combination such as this.
    INCLUDE SYSTEMFEHLER_NACHRICHT OBJECT DOKU ID TX
    You can solve the problem by executing the following steps:
    Verify that the object you are currently processing is assigned to the
    correct company code. If it is not, you need to correct it.
    Go to <DS:GLOS.settlement_rule>settlement rule</> maintenance. If
    there is a distribution rule to a G/L account, delete it and enter it
    afresh.
    If you are processing one internal order, you could do the following:
    Go to the "Control" screen. Check to see if there is a G/L account
    entered in the "Settlement" section.
    The settlement rule may be entered in the initial screen or in the
    <DS:GLOS.Order_type>order type</>.
    If you wish to create the order using the BAPI interface, check the
    requesting company code, the company code for the order, and the
    company code for the receiver-asset.
