  Accessing the relevant transaction code (e.g., SPRO) to navigate to the configuration settings for FI retraction.
  Adding the necessary entries based on your business requirements and the specifications provided by your SAP implementation team.
  
  
  
  Review Transport Requests: If the issue arose after a transport, review the transport logs to ensure that the customizing settings were included and correctly transported.
