3547776 - G/L Account Mapping Is Not Working to Post Supplier Invoices

While trying to post a supplier invoice, system throws error:

"Account determination missing for account determination group ABC. Choose the account determination for Costs. To define the account for chart of accounts DEF go to tab 'General Expenses'. Enter a general ledger account for 'ABC'.

ABC means the Account Determination Group for General Expenses.

DEF means the Chart of Accounts.

Since G/L Account Mapping has been done from Chart of Accounts GHI to DEF and for G/L Account ABC to XYZ, the expectation is that the system managed to post the invoice without the need of defining a G/L Account for ABC in DEF.

GHI means the Chart of Accounts.

XYZ means the Mapped G/L Account.

SAP Business ByDesign

The G/L Account Mapping enables manual postings in all sets of books for a company in cases where the sets of books do not all use the same chart of accounts. This functionality is supported for:

• Manual journal entry vouchers

• Recurring journal entry vouchers

• Acquisition and revaluation postings for fixed assets

Supplier invoice postings is not supported in G/L Account Mapping.

The error message is valid here and the required entry must be done in Charts of Accounts, Financial Reporting Structures, Account Determination activity --> Chart of Accounts DEF --> Costs subledger --> General Expenses tab.
