Message text: Invalid document type for task &1 (elim. IU P/L in inventory), version &2



What causes this issue?

Document type &V3& is assigned to task &V1& for the elimination of
interunit (IU) profit/loss in inventory in special version &V2& for a
specified period. However, this document type does not exist in the
target dimension &V4&. The assignment is therefore invalid in dimension
&V4&.


System Response

The task &V1& is copied, but the period-dependent assignment of a
document type in special version &V2& is not copied.


How to fix this error?

If the task &V1& is also used in special version &V2& in target
dimension &V4&, you need to maintain the missing assignments there.
The assignment in the source dimension can only be copied completely if
document type &V3& is also copied. You can also do this at a later
point in time (after an update run) by re-executing the copying
program. To re-execute the program do both of the following:
Select document type &V3& in addition to the previous settings.
Select the option "Do not change" for existing settings.
Alternatively, you can manually assign the document type to task &V1&
as follows:
Change the global parameters.
Change the dimension to &V4&.
Select a consolidation version that uses &V2& as the special version
for the elimination of IU profit/loss in inventory.
Assign document types to tasks in the section "Elimination of Interunit
Profit/Loss in Inventory" of Consolidation Customizing.
