Symptom
You create a Journal Entry Voucher of type 00047 - Manual Posting - Journal Entry Voucher or Recurring Journal Entry Voucher and assign a Multi-Customer Project task to a line item when an error message appears:
'Customer and multi-customer projects not allowed for G/L postings'.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the General Ledger work center.
- Select the New Journal Entry Voucher common tasks.
- Select the Journal Entry type 00047 - Manual Posting - Journal Entry Voucher.
- Add the Row for the debit and the credit with the Project Task.
The error message 'Customer and multi-customer projects not allowed for G/L postings' appears.
Note - The error message appears at the time of creation of Recurring Journal Entry Voucher as well.
Cause
For Sales Projects, either Customer project with sales integration or Multi-Customer Project you can only use the JEV type 00088 – Manual Entry for Sales Documents.
The JEV type 00047 only posts in the General ledger without any subledger involvement.
Resolution
If you just need to reassign costs or revenues to a Multi-Customer project use Journal Entry Voucher type 00088 – Manual Entry for Sales Documents and screen variant 634 - Man. Write-Up/Write-Down for Sales Doc.:
- Go to the General Ledger work center.
- Select the New Journal Entry Voucher common tasks.
- In the new screen, select Journal Entry type 00088 - Manual Entry for Sales Documents.
- Select the Screen Variant 634 - Man. Write-Up/Write-Down for Sales Doc.
- Maintain the line items as needed, crediting or debiting the Multi-Customer Project in one line item and the respective cost object (for example a Profit Center) in the other line item.
- Press Simulate.
This time the simulation of journal entry posting is possible.
