  The SAP error message 54118, which states "Quotas are validated and deducted on screens 2001 and 2050 only," typically occurs in the context of time management and personnel administration within SAP systems. This error indicates that the system is enforcing specific screens for quota validation and deduction, which are usually related to leave requests or time recording.
  Cause:
  
  Screen Restrictions: The error arises because the system is designed to validate and deduct quotas (like vacation or sick leave) only on specific screens (2001 and 2050). If you are trying to perform actions related to quotas on other screens, the system will throw this error.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the SAP system that restrict quota management to certain transactions or screens.
  User Role/Authorization: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the screens where quota validation is allowed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Use the Correct Screens: Ensure that you are using screens 2001 (Time Evaluation) and 2050 (Leave Request) for any actions related to quota validation and deduction. If you are using a different screen, switch to one of these.
  Check Configuration: If you are a system administrator or have access to configuration settings, check the configuration for time management and quota management to ensure that the settings are correct and that the necessary screens are enabled for quota validation.
  User Authorization: Verify that the user has the appropriate authorizations to access the required screens. If not, you may need to adjust the user roles or permissions.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on quota management and the specific screens involved.
  
  Related Information:
