SAP Error- Define a line layout variant for item display

[Former Member]

Hello Expert,

I have successfully posted invoice for one implementation project but when I am trying to open corresponding document through FPE2 , system is responding with error message " Define a line layout variant for item display ". I have already define line layout for Account Balance display (FPL9).

I am getting the same error when trying to execute FPE1 for charge posting .

Could you please let me know where I need to define line layout in configuration.

Any help on this will be appreciated.

Thanks & regards,

Gyanendra

Gyanendra,

By default, SAP has already given a standard screen Variant as 'SAP'.

When your are in FPE1/FPE3 screen, give the screen variant  as 'SAP' against the BP items and

GL items, under the line layout for list display.

Hope it helps...

Thanks,

Amlan

Hi Gyanendra,

The SPRO path you have shared is for account balance (FPL9) screen layout.

Please follow below SPRO paths for document create/change line layout variants and fields.

SPRO -> Financial Accounting (New) -> Contract Account Receivable and Payable -> Basic Functions -> Postings and Documents -> Document -> Screen Preparations ->

Define Screen Variant for List Entry of Business Partner Items

And,

Define Screen Variant for List Entry of General Ledger Items

You should have entries maintained there and those variants should be visible in the F4 help against the corresponding Line Layouts in FPE1/FPE2 screens.

Hope it helps.
