Symptom
When attempting to close a fiscal year in the Make Company Code Settings — Asset Accounting (Specific) app, the operation fails with error AC199: "The closed fiscal year does not match the legacy data transfer date."
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
1. Open the Make Company Code Settings — Asset Accounting Specific app.
2. Click Edit.
3. Attempt to close the fiscal year.
4. Observe that the system raises error AC199: "The closed fiscal year does not match the legacy data transfer date."
Cause
A coding issue is causing incorrect validation between closed fiscal years and legacy data transfer dates during fiscal-year closing in Asset Accounting.
A hotfix will be included in the current Hotfix Collection and is scheduled for release at the end of April.
Resolution
Workaround:
1. Run the Year-End Closing Asset Accounting (Cross-Company Code and Ledger) job from the Schedule Asset Accounting Jobs app. This closes fiscal years independently of existing LDT segments and is the preferred solution. Refer to the corresponding Help Portal entry for detailed steps.
2. Create a new LDT segment dated within the fiscal year to be closed, perform the fiscal year close, then delete the newly created LDT segment. The fiscal year closing validation checks only the most recent LDT segment.
