• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 5R036 - The fund SHARE (CHEST) is only wage-independent ! ?

  The SAP error message 5R036, which states "The fund SHARE (CHEST) is only wage-independent," typically occurs in the context of SAP's Public Sector Management (PSM) or Funds Management (FM) modules. This error indicates that there is an attempt to process a transaction that is not compatible with the characteristics of the specified fund.
  Cause:
  The error arises when a transaction is trying to use a fund that is defined as "wage-independent," but the transaction itself is wage-dependent. This can happen in scenarios where:
  
  Incorrect Fund Configuration: The fund has been set up to only accept wage-independent transactions, but the current transaction is attempting to post wage-dependent expenses or revenues.
  Transaction Type Mismatch: The type of transaction being processed does not align with the fund's configuration.
  Incorrect Assignment: The fund may have been incorrectly assigned to a cost center or internal order that expects wage-dependent postings.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Fund Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the fund in question and verify its characteristics. Ensure that it is set up correctly for the type of transactions you are trying to process.
  If the fund should allow wage-dependent transactions, you may need to adjust its settings.
  
  
  
  Review Transaction Type:
  
  Ensure that the transaction you are trying to post is appropriate for the fund. If it is wage-dependent, consider using a different fund that supports such transactions.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team to understand the specific configurations and requirements for the fund in question.
  
  
  
  Adjust Assignment:
  
  If the fund is assigned to a cost center or internal order, check if that assignment is appropriate for the type of transactions being processed.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making any changes, perform a test transaction to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
