Balance in transaction currency is too large for automatic correction

[marceloromeiro]

Hi all,

I'm facing a problem with the Journal Entry - Clearing (Asynchronous) API in an SAP Public Cloud environment. I developed it based on a community post (https://community.sap.com/t5/enterprise-resource-planning-blogs-by-sap/guidelines-for-api-journal-en...), and I'm receiving the following error: 'Balance in transaction currency BRL 1,157.74- is too large for automatic correction.'

I've tried making various adjustments, modifying the payload, and only had success when I performed a partial clearing with 0.01 (where I believe there's some tolerance the system has when validating the balance).

Has anyone used this API or experienced a similar problem when clearing documents?

These are some links I used as references in this development:

• Journal Entry - Clearing (Asynchronous) Documentation
• Guidelines for API Journal Entry – Clearing (Asynchronous)

Best Regards,

Marcelo

I'm also looking at this post (https://community.sap.com/t5/enterprise-resource-planning-blogs-by-sap/a-simplified-guide-to-effecti...) to solve my issue.

In that example, the author passes two document types, RE and KZ (payment and invoice entries), in the payload.

In my scenario, I'm only passing the RE document.

Do I need both document types to fully clear an open item?

Hello dear user,

I've never faced such issue before but I might find a solution to your issue.

Can you flag the checkbox “FX Rate First Item” in the app “Edit Options for Journal Entries - My Settings" and proceed again ?

Hope this will help you solve your issue.

Best regards,

Jeremy

Hello Jeremy,
Thank you for the response.
I made the adjustments and continued to receive the same error.
I tested with my user, as I believe this configuration is user-specific, but in my case, it will be executed by a communication user.
