3288608 - Error AA761 in Balance Carryforward

Symptom

Error AA761 "Fiscal year change in co.code & possible only after year-end closing &" is given in Balance Carry Forward error log.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Access the Balance Carryforward Status app.
  2. Enter the Company Code and Fiscal Year.
  3. Run it and check the status log.
  4. See the reported error.

Cause

The fiscal year is not closed in the Asset Accounting mentioned in the error log. 

Resolution

Complete the year end close in Asset Accounting, ensuring all depreciation is posted and the fiscal year is closed for each ledger via the Make Company Code Settings app.

If there is outstanding depreciation for the fiscal year, this must be posted. If master data parameters were changed in the Managed Fixed Assets app, then try to revert these changes but there is not a guarantee that this will remove planned depreciation values.

Prior fiscal years should not be left opened when the year in finished, they should be closed in a timely manner.
