 "Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental."

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Validation/Substitution created in App Manage Substitution/Validation Rules (App Id F4406) using Context Market Segment.
  2. Data entered in app App for example Post General Journal Entries (App ID F0718) 
  3. Validation or Substiution does not work for balance sheet accounts.

Cause

Substitution or Validation using the Market Segment is only valid for cost or revenue accounts assigned to a Profitability (Market) Segment

Resolution

  • In app Manage G/L Account Master (App id F0731A) check account configuration.
  • Context Coding Block or Market Segment can be used for cost or revenue accounts. 
  • Context Market Segment is only valid for cost or revenue accounts assigned to a Profitability (Market) Segment - Scope Item J55 - Application Component CO-PA
  • Context Journal Entry Item which is available from 2005 is valid for all Accounts



    The Substitution/Validations are called for each line item separately and so also all rules and there included checks, in case of context market segment only line items with a profitability segment will be processed.
