Validation for Business Area

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

Kindly give me steps to create a validation for the following requirement,

For G/L A/c : XXXXXXX

Business Area should be required

if no business Area .

Error...

So system should not allow user to post transaction with business area for this G/L a/c.

Thanks,

Raj

Hi,

For this activity you need not use validations. You can assign a field status group in the GL master Control tab. Field status group (OBC4) must select the business area required entry in additional account assignments. The field status group assign in the control tab of GL Master Data. Then

System will throw error if the postings have been done without business area for this particular GL.
