VF02, Balancing field "Business Area" in line item 001 not filled

[Former Member]

Hi, SD Expert.

When I released the billing document to accounting, used VF02, the system displayed a message 'Balancing field "Business Area" in line item 001 not filled', and I found the field of business area was blank, but I already assign the business area to plant and division and post the data comparision.

Hello Lin

How is going...

Could you please let me know where you did this customizing?

I mean the full path.

Many thanks

Also please note 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

Hi balaji.

I checked OMJ7, all the plant and division are assigned to business area.
