Problem in releasing the billing document

[Former Member]

When I am trying to release the billing document to accounting, I am getting the following error.

"Account XYZ requires an assignment to CO object".

What could be the cause of it?

Dear Christino

Go to TCode KA02 enter the controlling area, give the G/L acoount No and click on Master data tab. There select "Default Acc Assgmnt" tab and enter Cost center and save.

Go to FS00, input the G/L Account and click on "Edit Cost Element" on top. There click on Basic Data and for the field "CElem category", maintain the required numeric value. Now select the tab Default Acct Assgnmt and there maintain the required cost center and save.

Now retry the process.

thanks

Dear Christino,

If the account XYZ is defined as cost element, the system will always ask for the CO assignment.

Make a default assignment via T. Code: OKB9 (Check whether the GL Account/ Cost Element is Assigned to any Cost Center) or directly in the master data of the cost element via T. Code: KA02

This will bring the value automatically.

Best Regards,

Amit

Information: If you do not want to post to CO then delete the cost element KA04.

Alternatively, go to [Search Forum|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/profile?editmode=true&userid=3817783]

and Type: Account XYZ requires an assignment to CO object, and Search.

You will find many related threads. read them and implement, to resolve your issue.

Hi Christino,

Carefully think about it first as to which account groups belong to which chart of accounts (or which profit center groups to which controlling area).

Then call report ZECPCA11 for the respective top hierarchy node of a hierarchy of account groups (or profit center groups).

Enter the name of the hierarchy node under "Group", the name "RACCT" for account groups (or "RPRCTR" for profit center groups) under "Field" and the required chart of accounts (or controlling area) under "Searchf".

The "0H_Kennz" indocator should generally be marked (all groups that were created with the maintenance transactions in EC-PCA are technically stored as 0H sets in the database, that is, with prefixed "0H").

Report ZECPCA11 fills the T800S-SEARCHFLD field with the required chart of accounts (or controlling area) for all groups of the entered hierarchy.

After you have corrected all hierarchies this way, you should be able to maintain the account groups or profit center groups again.

You can find report ZECPCA11 on SAPSERV in directory /ftp/general/R3Server/ABAP/note.0042821 under the name "ZECPCA11.TXT". Alternatively, create the report from the 'Corrections' section using Transaction SE38.

For further more details, please refer the SAPnote 42821
