Error running settlements

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying to run my monthly Project settlements and I get this error:

Acquisition value negative in area 01.

The Project has been capitalised and TECOed, so I dont understand why values still keep on going against it.

Please help

Hi,

Look if the settlement rule is OK set on FUL and not a amound per period

Make it possible in the asset to have negative values. Perhaps there is a 0 value.

Thanks, the settlement is FUL.

How can I make it possible in the asset to have negative values? Where is the config.?

Hi Pam Pam,

We just had this exact error in PS settlement. Our consultant sent this note:Note 48886 - AA629:balance of transaction type group 10 becomes negative

the path to the config (in 5.0) Financial Accouting>Asset Accouting>Transactions>Determine transaction types for interal transactions

the change we made was:

to <b>Transaction Name</b>: Settlement inv. measure to (internal) AuC

the <b>Asset Transaction Type was</b> 114 Internal Settlement of acquisiton to AuC

Changed to 116 Acquis. from CO settlmt. to negative AuC

I am not sure what considerations were made to "go for" the change - but we were able to complete our settlment.

Hi,

When you are in the asset in the screen Depreciation areas you click 2 times on the line and when set up you can select Neg vals allowed. Perhaps you have to change field-status group
