Doc. type 50: Number range 99 is used for ledger L6 with doc. type AB

1388 Views

Hi there,

I am trying to create a new document type. .50

I have setup a number range.. 99

reversal document type is AB

I have checked all the account types-assets, customer etc

when I try to save I get the error message below

I am afraid I don't understand the reference to L6 and leading ledgers.is this a problem with my numbering range or with my use of AB?

Could somebody give me a simple explanation of how I might get over this?

Doc. type 50: Number range 99 is used for ledger L6 with doc. type AB

Error message in full:

Message no. FAGL_LEDGER_CUST093

Diagnosis

Contiguous document number assignment is not possible for the leading ledger for document type 50 because you are using number range 99 for ledger L6 and document type AB as well as for the leading ledger in document type 50:

In the IMG activity Define Document Types for Data Entry View, you choose the number ranges per document type for all postings in which the leading ledger is involved (such as transaction FB01, postings from outside Financial Accounting).

In the IMG activity Define Document Types for Entry View in One Ledger, you choose the number ranges per document type and ledger if, for example, you want to make a closing entry to a ledger group (such as transaction FB01L) and this ledger is the representative ledger of this ledger group.

Example

If you keep the setting with identical number ranges, an identical number range interval is generated. This means that contiguous number assignment is not possible in the following example:

1. You perform 20 postings with the leading ledger. The documents are given the number 1-20.

2. You make a posting without leading ledger. The document receives the number 21.

3. You make a posting with the leading ledger. The document receives the number 22.

After checking the documents of the leading ledger, the system establishes that number 21 does not exist.

Procedure

If, as a result of legal requirements specific to your country or company policies, you require gap-free document number assignment for the leading ledger, you need to ensure that different number ranges are used in the IMG activities Define Document Types for Data Entry View and Define Document Types for Entry View in One Ledger.
