  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message T0933 - Document type & allows no posting to G/L account ?

    The SAP error message T0933, which states "Document type & allows no posting to G/L account," typically occurs when you attempt to post a transaction to a General Ledger (G/L) account that is not permitted for the specified document type. This can happen for various reasons, including configuration settings in the SAP system.

    Cause:

    1. Document Type Configuration: The document type you are using is configured to restrict postings to certain G/L accounts. This is often set up to prevent certain types of transactions from being posted to specific accounts for control and compliance reasons.
    2. G/L Account Configuration: The G/L account itself may have restrictions that prevent it from being used with the specified document type.
    3. Posting Period: The posting period may be closed, which can also lead to restrictions on posting to certain accounts.
    4. Account Type: The account type (e.g., asset, liability, expense, revenue) may not be compatible with the document type being used.

    Solution:

    1. Check Document Type Settings:

      • Go to the configuration settings for document types in SAP (Transaction Code: OBA7).
      • Verify the settings for the document type you are using and ensure that it allows postings to the G/L account in question.
    2. Check G/L Account Settings:

      • Use Transaction Code: FS00 to check the configuration of the G/L account.
      • Ensure that the account is set up to allow postings with the document type you are using.
    3. Review Posting Period:

      • Check if the posting period is open for the transaction date you are trying to post. You can do this in the transaction code OB52.
    4. Consult with Your SAP Administrator:

      • If you do not have the necessary permissions to change the settings, consult with your SAP administrator or finance team to review the configurations and make necessary adjustments.
    5. Testing:

      • After making any changes, try to post the transaction again to see if the issue is resolved.
