Required field GL_ACCOUNT was not transferred in parameter ACCOUNTGL

0 Kudos

Hello experts,

     I am facing an issue in payroll posting while using the cost distribution for employee.

Case:

I have to maintain cost of an employee on two different cost centers of two different companies.

for one cost center it should be 70% and for the other 30%

I have executed the live payroll with successful results but when i do the postings i got this error and the documents generated are incorrect please help me with this i ave checked all other threads regarding this issue but yet i'm unable to solve it. I have also checked the symbolic accounts/technical accounts for this issue. Please let me know if am doing any mistake.

Note: I have checked executing the payroll and postings for both cost centers as making them master cost center via Transfer action from personnel actions and the results were successful.

Thank you

The error message suggests that the GL does not get assigned for the wage type amount 26600 in the first two screenshots.

Could you verify which wage type this is & check if the posting characteristics are correctly updated for this wage type?

I think it's possible that this amount is a clearing figure. Could you check if a technical account has been assigned in SPRO under Payroll - Reporting for posting payroll results to acctg - Activities in the AC system- Assign technical accounts

Consult the FI team as to what to enter here.

we have already maintained the technical accounts Account key as 1001 & 1002

please see the below it might help you/others as well to give you the solution,

1. execute wagetype reporter for the EE 17000104

2. look for the amount - 26600

3. check which wage type is associated with 26600

4. if you find any wage type with the amt 26600

5. goto table V_512W_D find out the wagetype posting related config

5. then goto table V_T52EL to find out the symbolic account

6. then goto tcode OBYE & OBYG to find out the G/L account


in each step check if you are missing anything

remember if you change any setting then only if you rerun the payroll again then it will work correctly --- do not rerun the payroll if you are in production environment

please can you correct me if i am missing anything

basically it is a new requirement in our company so i'm testing it in development server which has updated record till sept 2015 for the posting i'm only mentioning the current period as document posting date

Ok, just for testing, with all the data being as it is, can you assign only one cost center in It 27 and check that the posting is correct? Send a screenshot of the posting log for this.

The results are same Tania, below are the screen shots

Change the percentage to 100% in It 27.

For 100%

Ok, but isn't this what you had checked initially? That individual postings to each cost center are successful? (The 'Note' in your problem statement).

Also, why are two documents generated in payroll posting?

0 Kudos

No this isn't i checked both cost centers as assigning them as Master Cost center via Transfer action from Personnel Actions, i didn't used cost distribution in them and the results were successful for the posting. I don't know why two documents are generated for this. these may because we are distributing the cost in two cost centers sorry i'm not sure about it.

Ok, for the same employee assign the IT 27 cost center as master cost center. Delete or delimit It 27. Then check if posting is successful & send a screenshot.

Also send the below screenshots:

1) First screen from the payroll log where both documents can be seen

2) Posting characteristics for each wage type for this employee

3) Technical accounts

Hi Tania,

Below are the screen shots required by you, sorry i'm not much good in posting if you could guide me with the paths to check the characteristics. In meanwhile i have provided screen shot for symbolic accounts. Please correct me if i'm doing any mistake somewhere.

Is this the posting screenshot when IT 27 has been deleted? Is posting successful here?

0 Kudos

Yes it is and the postings were successful.

Former Member
0 Kudos

Ok, so do this:

1)Send a screenshot of WPBP from pc_payresult. Here the cost center from IT 1 will be seen.

2) Then once again create It 27 with the same cost center as 100%, execute payroll and send a screenshot of C0 from pc_payresult. Here the cost center from It 27 should be seen.

0 Kudos

While creating record in IT27 for same cost center should keep the same cost center as master cost center or should i change the master cost center to the previous one ??

Former Member
0 Kudos

Keep it the same as the master CC. The idea is so we can find out if the root case of the error has to do with the cost center.

0 Kudos

Hi,

Below are results with no differences

1) Without IT27 record

2) With IT27 record

For the second case, please send a screenshot of table C0 in the cluster.

Try posting with this CC in IT 27, please check if successful.

Hi,

So what's changed? In your earlier message, when you assigned the CC 2000014101 100% in IT27 you got an error. Now it's successful?

0 Kudos

Previously master cost center was different and IT27 cost center was different because of which i got error, but currently we kept master cost center and IT27 cost center same which didn't resulted in any errors.

Former Member
0 Kudos

That shouldn't matter. If IT 27 is maintained, it takes priority over the CC in IT1.

Do this - Change the master CC to what it was before, but keep the same CC in IT 27 & then execute payroll & posting.

0 Kudos

so should i mention both cost centers in IT27 with breakups.? or is it okay to mention only one cost center with single break up of percentage. ?

Former Member
0 Kudos

For now, just one cost center, will simplify the analysis of the error.

0 Kudos

Hi Tania,

The results are same

1) Apart from Master Cost Center assigned cost center in IT27 with 100%

2) Successful payroll run

3) Creation of 2 documents

4) Both documents with errors; please refer to below screen shots.

Does the master CC belong to a different company code? Can you send a screenshot of WPBP & C0 from payroll cluster?

0 Kudos

Yes, both cost centers belong to a different company code. Below are the screen shots

Former Member

If you assign another master CC of the same company code, please check whether you get the error.

Also, which country is this?

For other Cost center of the same company in IT27 payroll runs successfully below are the screenshots & our SAP is configured as per the International Countries.

Try this - for whichever posting variant you are entering in your posting selection screen, select the checkbox "post to co.code clearing accounts" in v_t52e2.

0 Kudos

we are using standard variant and the Post to co.code clearing accounts is already check marked in it.

Send a screenshot of the variant from v_t52e2 & also of the technical account as per the path I shared earlier.

Ok, for lack of a better idea, can you try unchecking the Post to co.code clearing accounts box in v_t52e2 for your posting variant & see what the impact is in your Dev system?

Former Member

Ask your FI team if a company code clearing account has been defined. The error could be that the option Post to co. code clearing accounts has been selected, but the co. code clearing account has not been configured.

Okay, I'll will check with my FI team and get back to you

Thanks
