    In Customizing for the location of values for consolidation of
    investments, you have specified in the calculation base that the system
    is to suppress minority interest posting for consolidation
    group-dependent entries with document type &V1&.
    In this case, you need to override the <LS>Clearing - Balance Sheet</>
    item in document type &V1&. This means the item that you specify in the
    document type must be different to the item in the global definition for
    <LS>Clearing - Balance Sheet</>. (You define this on the <LS>Clearing -
    Balance Sheet</> tab page in the consolidation workbench under <LS>
    Master Data</> -> <LS>Items</> -> <LS>Selected Items</>.)

    System Response

    If you do not override the <LS>Clearing - Balance Sheet</> item in
    document type &V1&, this will result in incorrect postings to this
    document type in consolidation of investments.

    How to fix this error?

    Define a separate item for <LS>Clearing - Balance Sheet</> in document
    type &V1&.
