    Hi Muhammad,

     Have you been able to get your issue resolved?  As the Sourav mentioned, first check it!

     If not ,maybe you can give us the error message when you post the GL.

    Hello Muhammad Yousaf,

    Please check the following.

    1) Is this first time you are getting this error message?

    2) Is there any chance that the main account type and related account category is updated after the journal line is created?

    3) If answer to point 2 is 'Yes', then can you simply delete that line and re-create in the same journal and see if this helps you to solve this issue!

    4) Have you checked for any hotfix available for this case?

    Kindly check and provide feedback.

    Best regards,
    Sourav Dam
