SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RP - Error Messages for Infotype Module Pools

• Message number: 182

• Message text: Account assgn &1 is active in HR on &2 and must therefore contain a value

What causes this issue?

The GM/FM integration with HR is active in the &V1& account assignment
on the start date &v2& of the infotype record. You must assign a value
to the account assignment.

How to fix this error?

Enter a valid value in account assignment &v1&. You can store derivation
rules in Customizing to retain default values for account assignments as
input help.
If this message appears although the field for the &v1& account
assignment is not displayed on your screen or is not ready for input,
there is a Customizing error. In this case, check whether the activated
account assignments and the field status controls used correspond and
adjust the settings if necessary. Missing valid derivation rules for
deactivated, that is, not enterable, account assignments are another
error cause. For this reason, check whether the &v1& account assignment
is inactive, is required in accounting, but no derivation rules were
stored. In this case, amend the derivations rules to resolve this error.
