What causes this issue?

For all equity items that you specify on the "Statistical Equity" tab
page under "Equity", you also need to specify the corresponding items
for balance carryforwards as equity items on the same tab page.
The system proceeds as follows: For each item specified as an equity
item on the "Statistical Equity" tab page under "Equity", the system
checks whether it exists as an "original item" under <ZK>Balance
Carryforward -> Item to be Carried Forward</>. If it is an original
item, the system then checks whether the associated (carryforward)
items for "Debits" and "Credits" have also been specified as equity
items under "Equity" on the "Statistical Equity" tab page.
However, debit item &V2& and/or credit item &V3&, which are associated
with item &V1&, are not listed there as equity items.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Either specify the items &V2& and/or &V3& as equity items under
"Equity" on the "Statistical Equity" tab page, or change the
customizing settings under <ZK>Balance Carryforward -> Item to be
Carried Forward
</>.
