  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MSG_UH138 - FSV with accounts from multiple chart of accounts is not supported. ?

    The SAP error message MSG_UH138, which states "FSV with accounts from multiple chart of accounts is not supported," typically occurs when you are trying to generate a Financial Statement Version (FSV) that includes accounts from different charts of accounts. This is not allowed in SAP because each chart of accounts is designed to maintain its own set of accounts, and mixing them can lead to inconsistencies in financial reporting.

    Cause:

    1. Multiple Charts of Accounts: The primary cause of this error is that the financial statement version you are trying to use includes accounts from more than one chart of accounts. Each chart of accounts is independent, and SAP does not allow the combination of accounts from different charts in a single FSV.
    2. Configuration Issues: There may be a misconfiguration in the financial statement version setup, where accounts from different charts of accounts have been inadvertently included.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Financial Statement Version: Review the FSV configuration to ensure that it only includes accounts from a single chart of accounts. You can do this by navigating to the FSV configuration in SAP:

      • Go to Transaction Code OB58 (for Financial Statement Versions).
      • Check the accounts assigned to the FSV and ensure they all belong to the same chart of accounts.
    2. Create Separate FSVs: If you need to report on accounts from different charts of accounts, consider creating separate financial statement versions for each chart of accounts. This way, you can generate reports without encountering the error.

    3. Review Account Assignments: Ensure that the accounts you are trying to include in the FSV are correctly assigned to the appropriate chart of accounts. You can check this in the account master data.

    4. Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the configuration or need further assistance, refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for guidance on setting up financial statement versions correctly.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as OB58 (for FSV configuration) and FS00 (for account master data).
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any updates or patches related to this error message, as there may be specific fixes or recommendations provided by SAP.
    • Training and Documentation: Consider training sessions or documentation on financial reporting in SAP to better understand how to manage charts of accounts and financial statement versions effectively.

    By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the MSG_UH138 error and successfully generate your financial statements.
