Field business area is a required field for G/L account BP01"

Hi SD experts,
While doing MIGO transaction, I get this error message : "Field business area is a required field for G/L account BP01", eventhough the document is OK when I click on check.
What does this mean and how can I fix this problem ?
Thank you,
Bahia.

Dear Bahia,
T. Code: FS00
Key-in G/L A/c No. & Company Code "BP01" and go to -
Tab: Create/Bank/Interest --> Feild: Field Status Group.
Note down it. Now,
Go to, T. Code: OBC4
Select line for FStV: BP01, and click: Field Status Group (from left)
On to next page, search for the Field Status Group, which you have noted down in T. Code: FS00.
Double-click on to Field Status Group.
On to next page, under Tab: Select groups, double-click on to "Additional account assignments".
Now, for "Business Area" maintain field entry as either "Optional" or "Suppress", as reqd.
Best Regards,
Amit.

Field Business Area is a required field for GL account ICI 2201001".
Any idea that why this error comes? I have checked every thing, cudnt sought out.

Hi
When you are transferring the material from one plant to other plant using mvt type 301 or 303/305 etc.,
there is a field selection variation between the mvt type and G/L account which was triggered for this Transaction.For mvt type 301, the filed Business area is not mandatory and for G/L account 2201001 the feild is mandatory.
You can resolve this by changing one of the field selection group, i.e. either MVt type or G/L account.to do this follow the procedure.
1.Go to SE38
2.Type program RM07CUFA
3.Execute the program
4.It will ask for Mvt type nad G/L account number, give the details and execute
5.System will display the difference between the two filed selection groups.
6.From the same screen , you can change the fileds option by selecting the error log.

Hi Thiru,
A somewhat late aswer, but it might be helpfull for other users with the same problem. You can solve this problem by assigning the division/valuation area to the business area. Follow the path below to execute this:
SPRO - enterprise controlling - Consolidation - Integration: preparation for consolidation - Preparation in the sender system - Further settings for Business Area Consolidation - Materials Management - Assign Division/Valuation Area to Business area.
Under Enterprise structure - Assignment - Logistics General, you will find a similar function. First execute option 1 or 2 here and then execute option 3. This makes it work as well, exept that it will not be recorded in a proper transport. The first option I gave for assigning is properly transportable.

Business Area is not getting updated in "Main Bank Account" Line item (FF_5

Hi Gurus,
I am executing T Code: FF_5 for uploading the "Multi-Cash" Format. This transaction clears the Bank Clearing Account and post the entry to the credit of "Bank Main Account".
Now while i had executed F110, the Business area was properly captured in the Bank Clearing Account Line item. But while executing FF_5, the Business Area is not getting captured against the "Main Bank Account" Line item.
Can you please tell me how to capture the Business Area against the "Main Bank Account" Line item.

Hi,
1. In case of Business where payments are made centrally it is important to report
    Bank A/c Business area wise.
2. However I have solved the problem by doing "Sustitution", and its working fine. The Business Area is getting updated against the Main Bank Account Line item.
3. I am however getting one error while doing the upload in FF_5. The error occurs
   only if Business Area is a "required" field in Bank Account's "Field Status
   Group".
   Error: (00 298) Formatting error in the field COBL-GSBER ; see next message.
   But if I make Business Area as an Optional Field I am not getting an error and
   also the posting is done to Main Bank Account.
Is there anyother method by which this error can be corrected.
I have assigned 2 points for your inputs. Can you help me to solve this error as well.

Hi
This is probably due to inconsistencies of your Business Area field setting in G/L Account's Field Status Group (<b>OBC4</b>) against the Field Selection of your Account Assignment Category (check IMG -> MM --> Purchasing --> Account Assignment --> Maintain Account Assignment Categories)
Or else Run program <b>RM07CUFA </b>giving the G/L account and movement type, and then highlight the errors
You can directly jump to the field selection configure from here

Hi Deepa,
At Easy access screen :
1.Go to the master account of that G/L (F-02).
2.Check the field status variant defined there.
At Customization screen (SPRO):
3.Go to the master account of that field status variant.
4.Change the status of business area field optional.

Dear Nazrul,
Go to tx. FS00 and enter account 12053040 for 9000 Cocd. Select "Create/Bank/Interest" sheet and check the entry on "Field status group".
Here you'll three options:
1. If you run SM34 for V_T004V and select your field status group you can go to dynphro "Additional account assigments" and for "Business Area" field stablish flag on Optional Entry position instead of the Required one now in use.
2. Revise your entries on SM34 for V_T004V in order to find a field status group that could match with the one in use for your GL account except for "Business Area" field. Afterwards, run tx. FS00 for 12053040 account and modify the entry on "Field status group" for the one that you have choosen on the previous step.
3. Run tx SM34 for V_T004V and make a copy of the field status group in use on your account, and modify the entry for the business are from required to optional or suppressed. Afterwards, modify your GL account on tx. FS00 changing the original field status group for this new one you have created.
I hope this information helps.

Hi:
You yourself are telling issue faced , you are saying that you have checked in OBC4 and OB41 the business area is has been set as required entry. When this has been set as required entry the field status group of GL Account 14470000 then it is obvious thing that you will get the error Field Bus. Area is a required field for G/L account 2100 14470000 in VF02. Normally Business area is coped to billing document from material master data , you do not need to enter in manually in GL account line item. If you want avoid this error then set Business area as optional in relevant field status group of GL account and posting key used. This will surely resolved your issue.

Field Cost Ctr is a required field for G/L account BP01 44972001

Dear Experts,
When I am Creating J1IIN I am getting this error
Field Cost Ctr is a required field for G/L account BP01 44972001+ Message no. F5808
For this I Checked 1. Field status Group of GL account
                            2. Corresponding Posting Key Field Status
                            3. OKB9 Settings
                            4. Cost Element KA02-Default Account assignment
But still sytem showing above error message.
But same gl when i am using in J1IS and Gener posting Cost center picking automatically.
Please suggest me on this.

Hello,
J1IH transaction does not update business area and you can check this in the note 945101.
I suggest you to manually enter the bussiness area since the current system design is like that.
So when you go into the detail screen please ensure that you enter business area at each prompt from the system. THis is because the system validates both the balances for each account & business area,
so you might have to enter it twice.
The system will dump when you try to exit the transaction without or forcing yourself out of an error.
This is peculiar to this transaction.
I hope it answer your inquiry.
Best Regards,
Vanessa.

Error in MB1A - Field Profit Ctr is a required field for G/L account 151100

Hi,
While we are doing MB1A with movement type 201, we are facing a error message - Field Profit Ctr is a required field for G/L account 1000 151100.
I check following things.
1.. Check Field status group of GL 151100 and make optional to Profit center.
2.. In SE38, enter Report RM07CUFA and execute with 201 movt. type, 151100 Gl no. and 50200 cost center. According to this, no error exist now.
What should be error..
Regards..

hi,
I think your cost centre is not assigned the above given bussiness area...
Take help of FI consultant and check whether its assigned at KS02 or not...
You can also change it...
or
if you are just doing testing, then better use other cost centre which assigned to the above given business area..
