3571051 - Deleted user is still in Journal Entry Created By field in Display Line Items in General Ledger app

Symptom

A cb user has been deleted in Maintain Deleted Users app. But in Display Line Items in General Ledger app, deleted user is still in Journal Entry Created By field for some journal entries.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Cause

The parameter CreatedByUser can be used to provide the user of an external system for documentation purposes, and this doesn't have to exist in the local system.

Resolution

SAP can't add validation in the standard as that would be an incompatible change potentially breaking existing API calls with non-existing users.

If a validation of user is required, please consider to implement a validation rule for journal entry (header) to check whether AccountingDocCreatedByUser exists.
