What causes this issue?

For all minority interest items that you specify on the "Minority
Interest" tab page under "Equity", you also need to specify the
corresponding items for balance carryforwards as minority interest
items on the same tab page.
The system proceeds as follows: For each item specified as a minority
interest item on the "Minority Interest" 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 minority
interest items under "Equity" on the "Minority Interest" tab page.
However, debit item &V2& and/or credit item &V3&, which are associated
with item &V1&, are not listed there as minority interest 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 minority interest items
under "Equity" on the "Minority Interest" tab page, or change the
customizing settings under <ZK>Balance Carryforward -> Item to be
Carried Forward
</>.
