• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RMDIAG013 - JBRACCOUNT entries can be created only if SRMAKT = 1 ?

  The SAP error message RMDIAG013 indicates that JBRACCOUNT entries can only be created if the system parameter SRMAKT is set to 1. This error typically arises in the context of the SAP Revenue Accounting and Reporting (RAR) module, particularly when dealing with journal entries or account assignments.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the system is configured to restrict the creation of JBRACCOUNT entries unless the SRMAKT parameter is set to 1.

  Check the Current Value of SRMAKT:

  Enter SRMAKT in the parameter field and execute to see its current setting.
