Symptom
- Unable to assign G/L accounts to the Profit and Loss result node in the FSV within the Manage Global Hierarchies application.
- The option to add G/L accounts and nodes for P&L is not visible in the application.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Access the Manage Global Hierarchies application.
- Attempt to create a Financial Statement Version (FSV).
- Create a Balance Sheet and add the G/L accounts successfully.
- Attempt to add G/L accounts and nodes for the P&L Result node.
- Observe that the option to add G/L accounts to the P&L Result node is not available.
Cause
It is expected system behavior that G/L accounts cannot be directly assigned to node 5 (P&L Result).
Resolution
Node 5 (P&L Result) is a special, non-editable results node whose content and balance are automatically calculated by the system.
Manual editing and assignment of G/L accounts is only possible for the following special nodes:
- Assets
- Liabilities and Equity
- Financial Statement Notes
