How To Fix UCF6401 - System also processes goodwill entries from reference restatement &1

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: UCF6 - Messages for Consolidation of Investments

• Message number: 401

• Message text: System also processes goodwill entries from reference restatement &1

What causes this issue?

You carry out the automatic consolidation of investments in the
non-initial restatement characteristic value &V2& in from-period &V3& of
its validity timeframe.

System Response

When executing automatic posting tasks in the restatement monitor, the
system uses a "delta" procedure for the totals records and documents
posted in the task (see SAP Note 1667855). The data stream for goodwill
is an exception to this: This is <ZH>not</> subject to the "delta"
procedure in the restatement dimension. The system generates separate
goodwill entries for each restatement characteristic value, whereby each
entry has the total value that is valid for the respective restatement
characteristic value.
The system uses a special logic so that goodwill entries are available
for processing when consolidation of investments takes place in a
non-initial restatement characteristic value: If it takes place in
from-period &V3& of the validity timeframe of restatement &V2& of the
current task execution, the system also reads the goodwill entries that
are in this period in reference restatement &V1& and processes these for
posting in the current restatement &V2&.
