  Error Message
  WZRE_IV021: Accruals can only be processed in operation mode
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when you attempt to post or process accrual documents in a mode other than the required operation mode in the SAP system. Specifically, accrual postings are restricted to certain processing modes to ensure data consistency and correct financial treatment.
  
  Operation mode refers to the standard processing mode in the SAP Accrual Engine or related modules.
  If you try to post accruals in simulation mode, test mode, or any other non-operational mode, the system will throw this error.
  This restriction is in place because accrual postings affect financial accounting and controlling, and must be done only in the actual operation mode to update the ledgers and controlling objects correctly.
  
  
  When does this happen?
  
  During accrual run or posting in the Accrual Engine (WZRE).
