  3. Press "Go".

Cause

Advanced Foreign Currency Valuation is activated, which requires using the new Advanced Valuation runs. The classic processes (for example, F107/Transfer Posting for Doubtful Receivables) are not permitted in this setup and cannot ensure end-to-end consistency.

Resolution

  1. Do not use the classic "Transfer Posting for Doubtful Receivables" (for example, F107) once Advanced Foreign Currency Valuation is activated.
  2. Use the successor process "Credit Risk Based Impairment" from Advanced Valuations to calculate and post doubtful receivable impairments.
  3. Run the Credit Risk Based Impairment job and verify postings.
  4. This run considers FX effects posted by Advanced Foreign Currency Valuation and ensures end-to-end consistency.

Note - Refer to: Credit Risk Based Impairment (Setup and Scope) and configure the process accordingly.
