Problems with FB05 - Balancing field "Profit Center" in line 001 not filled"

[Former Member]

Hey Guys,

I know, this topic has been discussed many many times. But I could not find a solution for my problem yet.

Following situation:

We want to post with Document Type "9B". The Profit Center is set, but when we try to post, the error message appears.

When we attempt to post the same Document with "2J", there are no problems. However, for other reasons we cannot use "2J"

I often read that this is a problem of Document Splitting.

These are my settings for the Document types:

"9B"

Transaction: 0000 (unspecified Posting), self defined Variant Y003 (Bank Statement)

"2J"

Transaction: 1010 (Clearing Transaction), 0001 (Standard)

So I read somewhere that Transaction 0000 does not work for Profit Center document splitting.

This might be the problem in my clients system. However, in my testing system, it perfectly works fine with "9B".

I would highly appreciate for any solution.

Thank you,

Hello again.

Issue has been solved.

The customizing was fine.

Profit Center field was not filled because user inserted line item manually.

Hi Ben

As explained also in note 1085921 this type of error messages are usually caused by wrong/missing customizing.

Refer the below notes for clarity.

Thank you for the Info.

But let me rephrase my question a little bit.

The Document Type I would like to use in FB05 is assigned with Business Transaction "0000" (Unspecified Posting).

I read somewhere that "0000" is not intended to be used for Document Splitting. Is this true?

thankyou,

Have u checked following step,

"Classify document types for document splitting"

Thank you for a quick reply.

Yes, but i am not quite sure what these settings exactly teach.

Has it maybe something to do with the extended document splitting customizing settings - define Document Splitting rules?

There, the settings for "9B" are defined for item categories (automatically split) like "Cash Account",

while for "2J", standard settings including automatically split for vendors etc. is activated.

Anyway, I somehow understand that it should not work with "9B" and it actually does not work in the clients system. I am wondering and trying to understand why it is working in my Testing system.

sorry if I cannot make my problem clear enough.

hi,

Every relevant financial transaction is considered for document splitting, you

categorize the document types to specific business transaction variants.

Standard SAP document types are already defined with appropriate values. Click on

‘Classify document types for document splitting’ to review the configuration and make

appropriate changes for the custom document types.

Hope it will clear ur query.
