SAP S/4HANA Cloud

1. Go to app "Change Billing Document".
2. Enter billing document number.
3. Release  the billing document to accounting.

Please check which pricing procedure is used in billing document header. Then check whether any condition type is marked as "Relevant for Acount Determination" in the pricing procedure. If it is, necessary settings are required. See the Resolution part.

If some condition type is marked as "Relevant for Acount Determination" in the pricing procedure, the following settings have to be maintained to make account determination work correctly.

1. Mark the condition type as "Statistical".
2. Maintain only field "Account key" for the condition type. Leave field "Accurals" as empty.
3. In configuration step "Automatic Account Determination" (step id 100297), for the account key combination, maintain both a G/L account and accruals account.
