  Error Message
  WS059: No journal entry is required for document &
  
  Cause
  This message occurs when you try to post or process a document in SAP that does not require a journal entry in the financial accounting (FI) module. Essentially, the system determines that the document you are working with does not generate any accounting entries, so no journal entry is created.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  Documents related to non-financial postings: For example, certain logistics or controlling documents that do not impact FI.
  Documents with zero amounts: If the document has no value to post, no journal entry is created.
  Special postings or transactions: Some transactions are designed to update only controlling or other modules without affecting FI.
  Document types or posting keys configured not to create FI entries: Customizing settings might prevent journal entries for certain document types.
