  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RQ182 - Account &1 in CC &2 designated as "cash management only" ?

    The SAP error message RQ182 indicates that an account is designated for "cash management only" in the context of the Controlling (CO) module. This typically means that the account is not intended to be used for certain types of postings or transactions that are expected in the context of cost accounting or internal orders.

    Cause:

    The error occurs when you attempt to post a transaction to an account that has been configured in such a way that it is restricted to cash management activities only. This can happen if:

    • The account is set up in the chart of accounts with a specific purpose that limits its use.
    • The account is not allowed for certain types of postings, such as cost center or internal order postings.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, you can consider the following steps:

    1. Check Account Configuration:

      • Go to the account master data in the SAP system and verify the settings for the account in question (Account &1).
      • Ensure that the account is not restricted to cash management only if you intend to use it for other types of postings.
    2. Change Account Settings:

      • If the account should be used for more than just cash management, you may need to change its configuration in the chart of accounts. This typically requires access to the account settings in the Financial Accounting (FI) module.
      • You may need to consult with your SAP FI consultant or system administrator to make these changes.
    3. Use a Different Account:

      • If the account is correctly set up for cash management only and should remain that way, consider using a different account that is appropriate for the type of posting you are trying to perform.
    4. Review Posting Logic:

      • Ensure that the logic of your posting is correct and that you are using the right accounts for the intended transactions.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like FS00 (to display/change account master data) or OBY6 (to check account settings) to investigate the account settings.
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files for more details on account types and their configurations.
    • Consult SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional guidance.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage with your SAP support team or a consultant who specializes in SAP FI/CO for further assistance.
