• Message number: 214

• Message text: Posting amount is displayed only once in each document

What causes this issue?

In a posting document, there can only be one line item for a correction
item. Nonetheless, several records were updated for the correction item
in the tax table of Real Estate Management. This situation most often
arises in the case of line item transfers between assets.
In those cases, this report shows the posting amount of the FI or asset
posting document only in the first line item (the first item of the
document). For any other line items, the amount fields are set to zero.

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