Error description

  • Unexplained Retained Earnings Opening Balance entries in
    intercompany journals causing an imbalance.
    

Local fix

  • There are at least two solutions to this problem:  1, Use an off
    set account in the income statement when eliminating income/cost
    s, then no temporary retained earnings bookings will occur, book
    ings that will anyhow sum to zero in the adjustment company.
     2, There is a server preference: IC_FIXOB_STRUC_CHG = TRUE that
     will take care of this problem.
