3810134 - Unauthorized company code shows warning at check and error at posting in Post General Journal Entries – SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

  • In the Post General Journal Entries app, entering a company code that the user is not authorized for shows a warning instead of an immediate error.
  • Warning message observed: "You have no authorization for posting in company code &1."
  • When proceeding to post, the system blocks posting with an error: "You have no authorization for posting in Company Code &1."

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open the Post General Journal Entries app.
  2. Create a new journal entry.
  3. In the header, enter a company code for which the user does not have authorization.
  4. Press Enter or run Check.
  5. Observe the warning: "You have no authorization for preliminary posting in company code ..."
  6. Complete mandatory fields and choose Post.
  7. Observe the blocking error: "You have no authorization for posting in Company Code ..."

Resolution

It's standard system design: a warning is issued during field/check validation; a hard error is issued when attempting to post with an unauthorized company code.
