Hi Goukal,

Why do you want to change recon account to a normal account. The basic principal of ERP system is intergration (one of objective is intergation of main ledger and sub ledger).

Standard SAP will not all you to change it as there are transaction posted to the account. By some how if you can do it and further auditor see it he / she will not be able to rely on your balances (Main Ledger and Sub Ledger).

Once a GL Account has been defined as a Reconcilliation Account for Vendor/Customer, you cannot change it to a normal account, as the system design does not support the same, if postings have been made.. The Asset Reconciliation Account can be changed to normal account.

However, you should not do the same, as it does lead to data level inconsistency in Subledger and Main Ledeger. transfer the balances to a new GL master if you need to.

Use the Transaction code OAMK to change the status of GLs of asset from Recon to non recon or vice versa
