3086551 - Error KI248 happens in app Post General Journal Entries - SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

Error KI248 happens in app "Post General Journal Entries" or "Upload General Journal Entries".

"Account XXXXXXXX requires a true account assignment relevant to cost accounting "

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Use app "Post General Journal Entries", or "Upload General Journal Entries" to upload the journal entry template file.
  2. Input parameters and Post.
  3. The error message KI248 appears.
 

Cause

For a revenue cost element, the cost center does not suffice as an account assignment. The system needs an order or a profitability segment as the real account assignment.

Resolution

Use "SSCUI 102639 Manage Default Account Assignments" to make configuration for the relevant account. Enable the Profit Segment flag for that line to determine profitability segment. 
Avoid entering Cost Center as assignment in the input screen of app "Post General Journal Entries" or in the journal entry template file in app "Upload General Journal Entries" as the configuration for SSCUI 102639 will not be triggered.
