Error messages when creating and updating a fiscal year

Notifications may appear both when creating and updating the fiscal year. If these appear, the fiscal year must be recreated or updated after the error(s) have been resolved. Some examples of common error messages and the possible solutions and/or follow-up actions are in this article.

 

 

Please note!
If an error message appears when creating a new fiscal year, the fiscal year must be re-created after the error(s) have been resolved or, depending on the error, the fiscal year already created must be updated. In case of doubt about the report, it is advisable to contact the MKG Helpdesk.

 

 

Similar messages below arise from the master data of the general ledger accounts. The closing balances 2024 of balance sheet accounts are basically transferred as opening balance sheet 2025 on the same general ledger account. This is only deviated from when the To Ledger Account field is filled in the master data. This field is required for profit and loss statements. A balance sheet account is filled in this field on which the result 2024 is collected.

 

 

Error message 2196
The To Ledger Account field is not filled in for account '7000', which is mandatory for a profit and loss account.

 

 

Error message 696
Fiscal year '2024', ledger account, '7000': Ledger account '0909', in fiscal year '2025', where balance must be stated like opening balance cannot be found.

 

 

Error message 697
Fiscal year '2024', ledger account, '0900': Ledger account '0900', in fiscal year '2025', where balance must be stated like opening balance is not a balance account.

 

 

Update Fiscal Year

After the general ledger master data has been corrected, you need to choose Update Fiscal Year again, whereby in addition to the opening balances, the general ledger schedule will also be updated again. See: How to update a fiscal year.
