• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPCE/IURU190 - Line key: '&1' - Cannot be updated; new OKOGU 7 field not empty (&2) ?

  The SAP error message /SAPCE/IURU190 typically relates to issues with updating line items in a financial document, particularly in the context of the new General Ledger (G/L) accounting. The message indicates that there is a problem with the line key specified (represented by &1), and it states that the new field OKOGU 7 cannot be updated because it is not empty (represented by &2).
  Cause:
  
  Field Not Empty: The error occurs when the system attempts to update a line item, but the field OKOGU 7 (which is related to the account assignment or cost center) already contains a value. This typically happens when there is an attempt to change the account assignment of a line item that has already been posted or has existing data in that field.
  Data Consistency: The system enforces data consistency rules, and if the field is not empty, it may indicate that there are existing dependencies or relationships that prevent the update.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check the Line Item: Review the line item associated with the line key &1. Check the contents of the OKOGU 7 field to understand why it is not empty. You may need to determine if the value is correct or if it needs to be cleared.
  Adjust the Document: If the line item needs to be updated, consider whether you can reverse or adjust the document instead of directly updating it. This may involve creating a new document that reflects the desired changes.
  Consult with Finance Team: If you are unsure about the implications of changing the OKOGU 7 field, consult with your finance or accounting team to ensure that any changes comply with your organization's accounting policies.
  Use Transaction Codes: Depending on your role and permissions, you may need to use specific transaction codes (like FB02 for changing documents) to make the necessary adjustments.
  Check for Custom Logic: If your organization has custom logic or enhancements in place, check if there are any specific rules that might be affecting the update process.
