During posting Bank Statement, we receive this message Applies-to ID must be equal to 'BC/26/00255_70000' in Vendor Ledger Entry: Entry No.=24333. Current value is ''.

Hi SCHUMACHER, Sigrid - TE DE,

This error occurs because Dynamics 365 Business Central has lost the relational link between your bank statement line and the target vendor invoice. During the posting routine, the database engine checks the Vendor Ledger Entry table to ensure the target invoice, specifically Entry No. 24333, carries the tracking tag 'BC/26/00255_70000' within its Applies-to ID field. Since this field is currently blank, which typically happens due to an interrupted session, a dropped database lock, or a user manually clearing the application in another window, the system halts the posting process to prevent orphaned financial records.

To resolve, you must manually re-establish the application link through the application interface. Navigate directly to your Vendors list, open the specific vendor card associated with this payment, and access the Vendor Ledger Entries page. Locate Entry No. 24333 and select the Apply Entries action from the top ribbon to open the application management window. Use the Set Applies-to ID function on this entry to write the missing 'BC/26/00255_70000' value back into the database record. Once you confirm the application and close the window, the table values will be correctly aligned, allowing your bank statement posting routine to complete successfully without validation failures.
