Workaround for AW607

[Former Member]

Hi expert,

Need your expertise on how to workaround the error in AW607.

We are in version 4.7, we have a WBS cost which is cumulated in 2010 (monthly settled to AUC in 2010). We now want to final settle it to GL in 2011 thus encounter error AW607 (settlement of old asset data to receiver type G/L not allowed). We know SAP advise is to switch the error into warning. But our company does not agree to that, so we try to work around it by reversing the cost in 2010 and transfer it to 2011 but the error is still there, in brief these is what we tried:

1. Reverse the cost in 2010 into balance sheet account in 2010

2. Rerun CJ88 of period 12.2010

3. Check AUC for 2010 is now zero

4. Post the cost in 2011

5. Run CJ88 for period 1.2011 (system gives us AW607)

Really appreciate for any suggestion how to workaround it. Thanks in advance for any reply.

Dear all,

Does anyone has an advice for this issue ?

The error being reported for the latest settlement indicates that old cost is being posted to G/L account in 01.2011. Based on your description it seems that cost needs to be posted to an asset. Kindly check the settlement rules and restrict the old rules (specially the one with reciever type G/L account) via the 'To period' and 'To year' field.

Also ensure if the correct processing type has been selected in CJ88.
