Diagnosis The document to be created for transfer postings does not have abalance of zero. The difference is posted to account &V4&. Procedure The reason that a transfer posting document has a balance may be thattransfer postings were created manually in a two-step procedure. Thefirst step is posting a retirement document with a retirement transfertransaction type. The second step is posting an acquisition with anacquiring transfer transaction type to another asset. If thesedocuments are not posted in the same posting period, this results in abalance related to the two posting periods. Since the system createsdocuments per posting period for the periodic posting run, there is noprovision for carrying out transfer postings from one posting period toanother. Another instance in which there might be a balance that is not zerocould be the settlement of an asset under construction to capitalizedassets. A balance that is not zero may occur if the full amount is notcapitalized, while a portion of the amount is posted to costs. If you do not want the amount of the balance to be posted toclearing account &V4&, reverse the acquiring transfer document and postit again in the same period as the retiring transfer posting. |
