Environment

SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud Edition

Reproducing the Issue

 Apps Create Supplier Invoice - Advanced (App ID MIRO)/Manage Supplier Invoices (App ID F0859) used to create supplier Invoice. 

Cause

  • The account associated with the DIF transaction key has no direct link to PO number/item, as a consequence the account assignment document splitting characteristics cannot be derived by referring to the original PO.
  • No inheritance is possible for specific invoice due to non unique account assignment.  

Resolution

A GL account which is defined as a cost element must contain a CO account assignment.

For data consistency in Controlling and Profitability Analysis, in items posted to a cost element account assignments cannot be derived by document splitting, but they must be derived from the CO account assignment. For example, if the CO account assignment is a cost center, the profit center must be derived from cost center master data. If the CO account assignment is a profitability segment, the profit center must be the one assigned to the profitability segment. If you assign a profitability segment to the DIF item by configuration activity  Manage Default Account Assignments  ( ID 102639)  you need to assign a profit center to the profitability segment by CO-PA settings or via a CO substitution. For revenue elements you can also assign a default profit center in configuration activity  Manage Default Account Assignments  ( ID 102639) 

In the field status of this account the cost center (and also profit center and segment - if it's a mandatory item for document splitting) should be set as optional item.
