Error while doing GR

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

While doing GR, I am getting following error

" GL account YSA 2490045 is not consistent"

Message no. F5672

Diagonsis:

This line item carries F posting line identification. The master record for GL account 2490045 in company code YSA must have the ' balance only in local currency' indicator if the 'F' indicator is set.

GL account 2490045 is a accrual account. According to our FI team, there should not be tick on 'balance only in local currency' in FS00.

Please Help in solving this error.

Hi,

Please check after ticking "Only balance in local currency" in control tab in FS00.

Thanks,

Hi Neeraj,

As the charges are not in local currency, we can't tick that button.

Hi Jeevan,

I think there's another basic misunderstanding here. You can post documents in foreign currency also to accounts marked as "balances in local currency only". The only consequence will be that the system will not show the balance on this account in each currency - only in the local currency.

We have many accounts used for planned delivery costs and marked as "balance in LC only", but our planned delivery costs are not in the local currency at all!

Hi Jeevan,

It would help us if you told which role this account plays in the transaction. Is it the stock account, the consumption account, the GR/IR acct, etc. You can find this out by searching the table T030 for this acct - remember that there are two acct fields in the table, credit and debit. Try each one of them separately.

Then tell us the key fields of the found record, if at all.

Hi Raf

This GL account is accrual account for Bank Charges. Earlier business used to do it directly without any condition, now they need a purchase condition. Hence new accrual key for this GL account. Then created new condition type was created with about accrual key. Then assigned condition type in pricing schema and then did PO

Hi Jeevan,

Indeed, MM can't use accounts defined for balances in foreign currencies as GR/IR or freight clearing accounts. Please check the [note 158700|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/158700]. The [note 118177|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/118177] that it refers too gives an explanation why this is necessary.

I am not sure, but it might be enough to just cancel the definition of your condition type as delivery costs condition in trs M/06. Clean the field "Condition category". Please also remember that this setting is stored in the PO and master data, so you can't reuse previously created conditions in PIR, contract or PO. Even if you create a new PO, but the system copies the conditions from the previous PO, this indicator is copied too - so you need to make sure you enter this condition manually in the PO (or correct the master data).

If you then keep the acct key for accruals in the pricing procedure trs M/08, then you will still get amounts for this condition type posted to the separate account.
