3738216 - Settlement from WBS to AUC unexpectedly uses down‑payment logic, causing errors to appear— SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

  • Settlement from a WBS element to an AUC fails because the system is unexpectedly applying down‑payment logic.
  • Error message: "You cannot use this transaction type to post this asset"
  • Error message: "Account&1: Acquisition Down Payments could not be found for area &2"
  • Error message: "Error when creating document, further processing not allowed"

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Cause

Down‑payment settlement is active in SSCUI 105768 Create Settlement Profile, causing the system to use down‑payment logic.

Resolution

  1. If down payments must not be settled to AUC: In SSCUI "Create Settlement Profile", set activity 105768 to "DOWNPAYMENT — NOT FOR SETTLEMENT" to deactivate down‑payment settlement.
  2. If down‑payment settlement should remain active, complete the required configuration: Maintain G/L account determination for down payments (KTANZA), including the relevant depreciation area.
