• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AA145 - Choose either leased asset or financial asset ?

  The SAP error message AA145 ("Choose either leased asset or financial asset") typically occurs in the Asset Accounting (FI-AA) module when there is a conflict in the asset type being processed. This error indicates that the system requires you to specify whether you are dealing with a leased asset or a financial asset, but both options have been selected or are ambiguous in the transaction.
  Cause:
  
  Ambiguous Asset Type: The asset being processed is set up in a way that it could be interpreted as both a leased asset and a financial asset.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for asset classes may not be properly defined, leading to confusion in asset categorization.
  Transaction Type Conflict: The transaction being executed may not be compatible with the asset type selected.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Asset Master Data: Check the asset master data to ensure that the asset is correctly classified as either a leased asset or a financial asset. You can do this by navigating to the asset master record and reviewing the asset type and related settings.
  
  
  Check Transaction Type: Ensure that the transaction you are trying to execute is appropriate for the asset type. For example, if you are trying to post a transaction for a leased asset, make sure that the transaction type is set up for leased assets.
  
  
  Adjust Configuration: If the asset class configuration is incorrect, you may need to adjust the settings in the Asset Accounting configuration. This can be done through the following path in the SAP menu:
  
  SPRO ? Financial Accounting ? Asset Accounting ? Integration with Financial Accounting ? Define Asset Classes
  Ensure that the asset classes are correctly defined and that the settings for leased and financial assets are distinct.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on the asset types and the transactions you are trying to perform.
  
  
  Seek Help from SAP Support: If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP team for further assistance.
