ICR Process 003 - Running Data Selection for Accounts without a Group CoA

Question

Hi Everyone,
I am getting an error "Account 'CoCode'/xxxxxxxxxxx: Group Account Number could not be determined" on the reconciliation of some accounts when I run FBICS3.
Currently, the operating chart of accounts is not assigned to a Group Chart of Accounts.  This may change after Go Live u2013 for instance due to consolidation requirements. But for now we are without group CoA.
I am wondering if this is a requirement for the ICR program to have this field active on the GL master data and populated?
If not, is it possible then to  switch off the error message or change the settings somewhere so that the error is not generated?
How will this effect accounts without a group account number?
I've included a link a screenshot below

Thanks in advance!

Hi John Scime,
I suggest you to review SAP Note 1164893. Check if this note is applied in your system, otherwise, apply it and pay special attention to the manual steps(solution part of the note).
Message FB_ICRC10 can be customized according to your requirements as warning, error message and so on.
These are the manual steps of the note 1164893:
    o  Start transaction SM31.
    o  Specify view T100S.
    o  Choose function Maintain.
    o  Choose function New Entries.
    o  Add the following entry:
       Application Area  Msg                  Allowed StandardSwitch Off
       FB_ICRC           102                  AESIW E X
    o  Save the changes.
    o  Start transaction SM31.
    o  Specify view V_T100C.
    o  Choose function Maintain.
    o  Specify Application Area FB_ICRC.
    o  Choose function Continue.
    o  Choose function New Entries.
    o  Add an entry for message 102 and specify the attributes which best meet your requirements(WARNING MESSAGE, Error Message, etc). Use value help if needed.
    o  Save the changes.
I hope this help you solve this issue!
