Posting is only possible with a zero balance; correct document

Former Member

Hello SAP gurus,

Please help me here. I tried to post a vendor invoice but i got an error message "Posting is only possible with a zero balance; correct document".

The debit and credit balance is correct. In document entry i checked calculate tax and the GL master was assigned a tax code. How can i correct the document and be able to post the invoice?

Thanks in advance,

Prakash

Hi,

Just put * in amount field in any of the line item and then simulate, you wont face it.

Hello

Request you to please check the tolerances once and then post your document.

Sometimes if the difference is more than the tolerances then this might happen.

Hi,

I had also faced same issue and got it resolved.

For resolving it, I made necessary changes in Editing Options in transaction FB01.

These Editing options are user specific settings and these can be found in transaction FB01 -

Go to Settings --> Editing Options (F9).

Alternatively, you can click Editing Option Button on FB01 Screen (Call Up Editing options for Accounting).

Please check if it resolves your issue.

Thanks Rajinder,

I was also getting the same error while posting F-43 (Vendor invoice)

I resolved the issue as you suggested. I just unticked "Calculate taxes on net amount" in Editing Options.

Goto - F-43 -> Press F9 -> un tick "Calculate taxes on net amount"

Hi

Check the amount entered is including with tax or without tax.

Hi Prakash

Did you try simulating the document, you will exactly come to know where the difference lies?

and you can correct it yourself.

I did the simulation and it still gave me the same error message exactly.

The amount is the total including tax. Is there any configuration i missed?

Did you use the correct tax code?

In simulation, please check in which item the difference is appearing?

When such an error comes, there is a mis-match of debit and credit.

Yea, i used the input tax code i created. I tried to post without assigning the tax code and still the same error.

Are you saying the difference between debit and credit amounts. If so it is the same. I appreciate for your effort sanjay
