About the engine: OBYC, VKOA, automatic account determination rule validator
How to fix it
Correct the determination entry (or the expected account rule, if the rule is outdated) so that the combination posts to the expected G/L account; re-run the regression scenarios afterwards.
How ERP Preflight detects it
The analysis is deterministic: the same exported files and the same knowledge snapshot always produce the same findings. No SAP system connection is required — you upload exports.
