We are getting an error message while posting a vendor invoice journal:

You must select a value in the CostCenter field in account structure: <account structure name>. The combination was not validated beyond the CostCenter financial dimension.

GST is being calculated correctly:

I can confirm this balance sheet account structure is attached to the ledger, the account structure itself is active, advanced rule structure containing an entry for this combination of financial dimensions is attached to this balance sheet account structure, main account is active for this company (not suspended) and all other financial dimensions in this accounting string are active for this company.

Ledger. Account structure is attached to the ledger.

Account structure is active itself.

Advanced rule structure is attached to the account structure.

Advanced rule structure contains an entry for the financial dimensions combination.

However, still the system is throwing this error message. Please advise how this could be resolved.

Thanks!

Hi Ludwig,

I agree with you however, this is the way customer has configured their system to achieve the financial reporting requirements. They require to have cost center attached to every transaction being entered in the system irrespective of a P/L or balance sheet main account being used.

Hi Sourav,

Thanks a lot for your response! This has fixed the issue. Default financial dimensions for the company were missing on the vendor summary account of the vendor posting profile.

Thanks a lot for being an active and knowledgeable community member :)

Hi Muhammed,

I think Sourav is right that the cost center is missing for the vendor account that is included in the journal.

Assuming that this fixed your issue, can you let us know why you need a cost center for a balance sheet account?

That is something that I don't see often.

Many thanks and best regards,

Ludwig

Hi Muhammad Anas Khan ,

Can you check if you have selected Cost center dimension value for account type 'Vendor' or not. Because summary account for vendor is also mapped in the structure.
