  Meaning / Cause
  This error occurs when there is an inconsistency or mismatch between the customer master data and the posting transaction with respect to the reconciliation account and posting key used.
  More specifically:
  
  The customer master record is assigned a specific reconciliation account in the Chart of Accounts.
  When posting a document (e.g., invoice, payment), the system expects the posting to be made to the reconciliation account assigned to the customer.
  If the posting is attempted with a different reconciliation account or an incorrect posting key (debit/credit indicator), the system raises this error.
