Solutions
3 solutions available1. Configure Financial Account Determination medium
Ensure that the financial account determination is correctly set up for the affected company code.
1
Access the SAP S/4HANA system using the SAP GUI. Navigate to transaction code OBYA (or SPRO -> Enterprise Structure -> Definition -> Financial Accounting -> Set up Company Code for Financial Accounting -> Set up Company Code).
2
Verify that the Company Code associated with the error message has a valid entry for the 'Financial Account Determination' field. This field should point to a valid Chart of Accounts.
3
If the field is blank or points to an invalid entry, you need to assign a valid Chart of Accounts. If a Chart of Accounts does not exist, create one using transaction code OB13.
OB134
Once a valid Chart of Accounts is assigned, save the changes. If you are creating a new entry, ensure it is assigned to a transport request.
5
After saving, the error should be resolved. If the issue persists, it might be related to the Chart of Accounts itself or its assignment to G/L accounts.
2. Verify Chart of Accounts Assignment easy
Confirm that the Chart of Accounts assigned to the company code is active and correctly configured.
1
In SAP S/4HANA, navigate to transaction code OB13 to view and manage Charts of Accounts.

Locate the Chart of Accounts that is assigned to the company code experiencing the error (identified in the previous solution).

Check if the Chart of Accounts exists and is active. Ensure that the language key and name are correctly maintained.
4
If the Chart of Accounts is missing or inactive, you will need to create or activate it. This often involves consulting with your functional FI consultant.

Re-assign the correct Chart of Accounts to the company code using OBYA if necessary and save.
