Blocking the posting to an account that is creted without an alt. account

[former_member195383]

if an account is created without any alternative account, any posting should be blocked by the system (currently it is possible to post on accounts having no alternative account) . Please suggest the needful

HI,

I once had a customer who checked the alternative account number (for a set of comp. codes where an alternative acount number is mandatory) when the account master data was created/changed (guess it was a modification).

So the process was 1: create the alternative account number 2. create the acount number in the comp. code and assign the alternative account number before saving the changes.

The advantage is that there cannot be a posting to account numbers without alternative account assigned in account master data, so people doing the posting stuff (often different from the ones responsible for account master data) are not blocked when a validation message (like discussed above) appears.

Best regards, Christian

Hi,

You can make a validation via OB28, checking the master data of the account (user-exit will be required).

Eli

P.S. Please, in the future, try formulating your threads in form of a question.

I think you can do this without user exit in the validation:

In our case we use a set where we had defined the companies assigned to a different Chart of Accounts According to Country Legislation
