Use this function to identify journals that do not have counter accounts. This analysis is carried out on the GACCENTRY and GACCENTRYD tables. From the search results grid, you can drill-down to the accounting entry and enter the missing counter account: a G/L account or a BP account.
The DATEV data model for accounting entries expects debit and credit accounts of a business transaction in a single journal line. Therefore, you need to provide the information on counter accounts for each accounting entry line. Accounting entries (resp. accounting entry lines) that are generated by upstream modules usually include the information on counter accounts. However, when an accounting journal is entered manually in the Journal entry function (GESGAS), you are not required to enter a counter account.
When exporting accounting entry lines via the DATEV export interfaces, missing counter accounts are replaced by the so-called DATEV intermediate account. By means of the intermediate account, the accounting journal is restructured and exported as a DATEV compliant accounting journal. However, this may lead to different balances in your journal and in DATEV and is therefore not desired.
