  The SAP error message AC102, which states "Asset history sheet version & & already exists," typically occurs when you attempt to create a new version of an asset history sheet that already exists in the system. This can happen in the Asset Accounting (FI-AA) module when you are trying to generate or modify an asset history sheet for a specific asset or group of assets.

  Use a Different Version Number: If you need to create a new version, ensure that you are using a unique version number that does not conflict with existing versions.

  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or your organization's guidelines on asset history sheets to ensure compliance with versioning rules.
