Symptom
After the house bank account was updated to a new G/L account in app "Manage Bank Accounts", the system still attempts to post to the previous G/L account. This leads to the error message "Account XXXXXXXX YYYY is blocked for posting" in "Reprocess bank statement items" app.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Import or attempt to post a bank statement.
- Observe that the posting logic selects the old G/L account instead of the updated G/L account in the house bank account settings.
- An error “Account XXXXXXXX YYYY is blocked for posting” may appear if that old account is blocked.
Cause
The bank statement was created/imported before the house bank account’s G/L account was changed. The statement header retained the original G/L account recorded at creation time, and this value is not updated after changes to the new bank G/L account. This results in postings attempting to use the outdated G/L account.
Resolution
- Reverse the affected bank statement.
- Ensure the house bank account reflects the intended G/L account.
- Re-upload (re-import) the bank statement so it picks up the updated G/L account.
- Post the bank statement again and confirm postings are created to the correct G/L account.
