  • What causes this issue?

    You are posting a post-capitalization. An example of when you need this
    type of post-capitalization is if you neglected to add expenditures for
    the acquisition or assembly of an asset to its APC in a fiscal year that
    is now closed.
    To be able to correct the excess expenditure that was posted, the
    original asset value date entered for the transaction must be in a
    closed fiscal year.

    System Response

    The posting can<ZH>not</> be executed with an original asset value date
    that is in an open fiscal year.

    How to fix this error?

    Post the post-capitalization with a posting date in the (first) open
    fiscal year and an original asset value date in a closed fiscal year.
    If however the asset value date of the transaction is in an open fiscal
    year, you can execute a regular asset acquisition posting instead of a
    post-capitalization.
