• Message number: 141

• Message text: Asset/liability-managing consolidation unit requires an asset (document)

What causes this issue?

To use elimination of interunit profit/loss in transferred assets, in
the data model you need to allocate one of the following: (a) both roles
?Asset/Liability-managing Consolidation Unit? and ?Noncurrent Asset -
Document?, or (b) neither of these two roles.
If both roles are assigned, the role "Noncurrent Asset" must also be
assigned. Then the system automatically also adds the characteristic
"Activity: Elim. of Interunit P/L in Transferred Assets" to the data
model.

System Response

The data model of data basis &V1& is inconsistent and cannot be saved in
this state.

How to fix this error?

Check the "Assets/Liabilities" section in the data model of data basis
&V1&. Make sure that the input fields for the listed roles are either
both filled or both empty.
If characteristics are assigned to the two roles
?Asset/Liability-managing Consolidation Unit? and ?Noncurrent Asset -
Document?, make sure that a characteristic is assigned also to the
"Noncurrent Asset" role.
