  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    Possible causes:
    The balance on the sender is zero.
    There is nothing to settle for the settlement type selected.
    Example: Periodic settlement
    Distribution rule:,,Percentage rate,,,,,,50%
    ,,,,,,,,,,,,Receiver cost center,,1
    ,,,,,,,,,,,,Settlement type,,,,,,PER
    Charge in the posting period: $200
    Credit from earlier settlement: $100
    The distribution rule always applies to the period value (here: $200).
    At the month end, 50% (here $100) was settled. This leaves nothing to
    be settled when the period close is repeated. The balance (here: $100)
    can only be settled using full settlement or an additional distribution
    rule.
