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 - urgent

Hi all,
we had created a new plant 3800. During configurations , business users created material for 3800 on 3000 and started purchase. Now after configurations, those materials had to be extended on plant 3800. Material have been extended but when the stock is transfered from 3000 to 3800 via MB1B , system says "
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.
Kindly help.

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

My question is "Do you think the error is due to inconsistency between MM movement type & GL master data. Could it be MM movement type used in the transaction below?
How to make sure business area is a mandatory field for that movement type?
Our company policy is business area is require for all GL master.

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 Bus. Area is a required field for G/L account

Hi,
I have a Zprogram in uploading an excel file and posting its data in FB01 by using the BAPI 'BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST'. User requested if we could change the Posting Key so I did create an FM to serve as a user exit.
When the upload file contains entries with Posting Keys such as 29, 39(user define posting keys) etc, it requires Business Area to be filled.
But when I use the posting keys such as 31(SAP generated keys) Im not encountering this error.
Question is where can I get Bus. Area for these accounts using user define posting keys.
Thank you very much.

Hi
A good way to make this Check compulsory in case Document Splitting is active in your system.
Follow the path
IMG>Financial Accounting (New)>General Ledger Accounting (New)>Business Transactions>Document Splitting>Define Document Splitting Chracteristics for General Ledger Accounting.
Here you can make splitting active for Both business Area and profit center.
If any where in the posting system does not find either of Business Area or Profit Center, it would give an error
Thanks & regards

Hi Jaya,
we need to maintain the screen layout rules for the asset master data for the above issue.
Path: SPRO, Financial Accounting, Asset Accounting, Master Data, Screen Layout, Define Screen Layout for Asset Master Data.
Double click Define Screen Layout for Asset Master Data.
Select your screen layout and double click "Logical field group" folder.
Then double click on "3 Time dependent data" and double click "Field group rules".
Here maintain the rule for business area exactly as it looks like for cost center.
Hope this helps you....

Business area in Invoice header Field(MIRO)

Hi,
My question is, In MIRO TCode business area at header level should be update automatically accordingly line item business are.
Regards,
Mukesh Chejara
SAP

Dear Mukesh,
First of all, if a PO is having 20 line items and they have multiple Business Area then in that case Business Area will be failed in header because header data is acumulating all line items.
So my suggestion is you follow SAP standard i.e. manual entry by user.
If all your line items maintained for one Business Area, then you use any User Exit through ABAPer help.
Thanks & Regards
