Dear Michael,

It is mentioned in the S-note 1711682 that "Allow BLANK as Value for Account Assignment Elements", as our company has activated Fund Management all the reports are retrieved based on Fund, Funds Center and Functional Area which is mandatory. Blank is not allowed.

Any other suggestions on Functional Area will be helpful.

Thanks in advance
