Thanks, Dan and Collet
   In my compandy hierarchy, each consolidation unit with the method is 3, not 2. include inheritance and not inheritance.
   When I double click one of consolidation unit.  a maintain window display,  I change accounting technique in this window, the syste issue another message  UGMD016 ('The value 2 is invalid for characteristic METHOD'
                                                                     Characteristic METHOD has no master record with the value 2.
                                                                     (The non-existing value was stored as an attribute for characteristic and value .)
   This mean that the method is incorrect?
   But the accounting technqiue of the method  is '2 equity method';
