Hi All
Settlement of WBS elements does not work if the G/L account the amount is posted to be an International Assignment Expense Account and requires a Personal Number. In order for settlement to work we have to get finance master data to change the status of the account while we run settlement the error that occurs is
Field Pers.No. is a required field for G/L account 1365 6210002
Message no. F5808DiagnosisThe value for field "Pers.No." in the interface to Financial Accounting is an initial value but you are required to make an entry in the field selection for G/L account "6210002" in company code "1365" linked to the field selection for posting key "50".
System Response Error Procedure It might be an error in the configuration of the G/L account field selection. The initial application, used to call up the interface must otherwise define a value for field "Pers.No.". If this is the case, contact the consultant responsible for the application used to call up the interface or get in contact with SAP directly.
To get round this we have to get GL Account Master Data to change field status to G004, run settlement and then get it changed back to G040. We want settlement to work without having to do this. Here is an explanation of the problem which I received and we believe is happening
This looks like a problem with the way settlement works. When the original entry has been posted to the WBS element and account a personnel number has been entered. When the settlement entry is trying to post I m assuming that when it is crediting account (6210002) the settlement process is not able to find the personnel number hence it is giving this error.
Awaiting Immideate response
