3537966 - Error "FINS_ACDOC_CUST502" Changing Accounting Principles in Ledgers in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

  • The change is not possible in the SSCUI 103556 'Assign Accounting Principles to Ledgers and Company Codes'.
  • An error message is received stating that transactional data already exists for some company codes.
  • The error "FINS_ACDOC_CUST502 "

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Resolution

The corporate accounting principle can only be changed if no postings have been made in any company code in General Ledger Accounting. If postings have been made in any system within the system landscape, the assignment can no longer be changed. However, the accounting principle for the local ledger can be modified at the company code level, provided no postings exist in the relevant company code.

If postings have been made in a system other than the production (P) system, these can be deleted using the job template Reset Transaction Data from the app Schedule Accounting Data Changes.

If actual costing is activated, the default assignments can only be changed if no changes have been made to the accounting attributes of materials relevant for actual costing (price determination = 3) in the company code.
