3469354 - Configuration changes are not possible due to existing postings

Symptom

You cannot change the currency settings of a company code, as a veto checks blocks the changes, as there are already postings for the company code.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud 

Resolution

A: If there are no postings in the P system for the company code, you can use General Ledger data changes job "Reset Transaction Data" to delete the test postings in Dev, Test or Q system.

B: If there are postings in the P system: the only option is to create a new company code and stop using the old company code.

  • A new Company Code set with new configuration settings e.g. with a third currency 

  • Use the data migration for setting up opening balance and open items of the new company code. The migration templates need to be filled manually.
    See Migration Objects in Accounting 

  • There is no integrated Migration from the old to the new company code available.
