3204464 - Journal Entry Has Posting Lines With Zero Amount

Symptom

You noticed a document was posted in accounting, however its Journal Entry ABC has lines with postings of zero amount.

ABC = ID of the Journal Entry

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the General Ledger work center.
  2. Go to the Journal Entries view.
  3. Search for the Journal Entry ABC.
  4. Open the Journal Entry ABC.

See that some lines of the Journal Entry have zero amount.

Cause

The reason for the 0 amounts is that the products have the value set to 0.00 EUR (or any other currency you are using in your system) in the Inventory Valuation work center, Materials view, View Cost History.

Resolution

This is the expected system behavior. If you wish to have a value in the Journal Entry, the material should have a cost different then zero.
