Hi,

1. Are you using any Internal Order, attcahed to your Sales Order?

2. Alternatively, you may check for a particular item in your sales order, whether Profit center is maintained or not.

To do so:

T. code: VA02

Key-in your Sales Doc. No.

Select respective Line-item and double-click.

Go to Tab: Acct. Assignment

Here, you may check the field: Profit Center.

if its not maintained, then

Go to T. Code: MM02

Key-in your Material Code and Org Data.

Go to Tab: Sales: General/ Plant

Here maintain Field: Profit Center.

Hope this will resolve your issue.

Dear Guru Prasad

If you define document splitting criteria based on Profit Center and if your billing document contains multiple line items with different profit center, this type of error will come.

To check this, Go to IMG Path -- Financial Accounting (New) --> General Ledger Accounting (New) --> Document Splitting --> Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger.

There check whether the mandatory check box is selected for profit Center.

So check in your billing document, whether any line item does not have profit center.

thanks
