Dear user,

The message you get is due to a missing entry for the G/L account 64002000 in the default account assignment configuration that you can find in the SSCUI 102639.

CBC path :

I hope this will help you solve your problem.

Best regards,

Jeremy

The error KI235 occurs when a General Ledger (GL) account configured as a cost element (Category 1) lacks a valid Controlling (CO) object assignment during transactions in SAP S/4HANA Cloud. In your case, this arises during depreciation posting for ledger 3L because CO is only active in the leading ledger, triggering a hard check for account assignments. Here’s how to resolve it: Primary Solutions 1. Maintain a Cost Center on the Asset Navigate to the Manage Fixed Assets app. Locate the asset causing the error and ensure a valid cost center is assigned to it. This directly resolves the missing CO object requirement for depreciation posting in ledger 3L. 2. Configure Default Account Assignment Use SSCUI 102639 (Manage Default Account Assignments) to define a default CO object (e.g., cost center) for the GL account 64002000. Ensure the default assignment aligns with your organizational structure. If hierarchical cost centers are used, verify that lower-level assignments do not override defaults. Additional Checks Cost Element Configuration: Confirm that GL account 64002000 is correctly assigned as a cost element (Category 1) in account determination settings. Document Splitting: If activated, validate that the GL account is classified properly in IMG > Document Splitting > Classify G/L Accounts. Profitability Segment: If using CO-PA, ensure the cost element is assigned to a profitability segment in OKB9, with the PA object indicator checked. Why Ledger 0L Works but 3L Fails CO checks are enforced only in the leading ledger (3L). Ledger 0L (non-leading) skips this validation, allowing depreciation posting without errors. The fix must target ledger 3L. For recurring issues, review SAP Notes 1732825, 2628966, and 367813, which address KI235 in asset accounting and goods receipt scenarios. If default assignments fail, temporarily assign a cost center to the cost element via KA02 (Cost Element Master Data) and test the transaction
