How to fix this error?

If you are using a maximum percentage for the support, calculate the
total of the base depreciation area of existing current-year ac
quisitions, i.e. the APC posted with a transaction type for current-year
acquisitions and use the maximum allowed support percentage for the
support measure. This way you will get the maximum support amount
relating to current-year acquisitions.
Compare the maximum support amount from the investment measure or, as
described above, determined with the total of the support for
current-year acquisitions.
The total of the support for current-year acquisitions is the total of
the support posted in the current year with a transaction type for
current-year acquisitions, including the support that you are now trying
to post.
If this total is greater than the maximum support amount, the system
terminates the posting with an error message.

Procedure for System Administrators

Check whether you must post the amount you want as a whole or as part of
support for prior-year acquisitions. If, for example, the maximum
support amount for current-year acquisitions is used up, but it is still
possible to support prior-year acquisitions.
You can post a maximum of &v2& relating to current-year acquisitions in
area &v1&.
