Symptom
After processing bank statements via the Reprocess Bank Statement Items app, the Assignment Reference field in the posted documents does not reflect the value date, even though Sort Key 027 (Value Date) is configured in the G/L account master data.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Open the Reprocess Bank Statement Items app.
- Post a bank statement item against a G/L account with Sort Key 027 configured.
- Open the resulting journal entry and observe that the Assignment Reference field displays a reference derived from the short key, item number, and account currency, rather than the value date.
Cause
During bank statement processing, the Assignment field (ZUONR) is populated with the short key, item number, and account currency combination by design. The sort key configured in the G/L account master data is not taken into account during this process.
Resolution
The standard system does not overwrite the assignment reference with the value date, even if a sort key is configured for the account.
If the Assignment Reference field is being populated differently across G/L accounts, review any active substitution rules and custom logic implementations in the system, as these may be overriding the standard behavior for specific accounts.
