• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AC464 - No changes can be made to area & here (no asset values in general ledger) ?

  The SAP error message AC464 ("No changes can be made to area & here (no asset values in general ledger)") typically occurs in the Asset Accounting (FI-AA) module when you attempt to make changes to an asset that does not have any associated values in the general ledger. This can happen for various reasons, such as the asset not being fully capitalized, or it being in a status that does not allow changes.
  Cause:
  
  No Asset Values in General Ledger: The asset in question has not been capitalized or has no values posted to the general ledger.
  Asset Status: The asset may be in a status that does not allow changes (e.g., retired, sold, or fully depreciated).
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the asset accounting area that prevent changes to certain asset areas.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Asset Values: Verify if the asset has any values posted in the general ledger. You can do this by checking the asset master record and the associated postings.
  Review Asset Status: Ensure that the asset is in a status that allows changes. If the asset is retired or sold, you may need to create a new asset or adjust the existing one accordingly.
  Post Values: If the asset has not been capitalized, you may need to post the necessary values to the asset to allow changes.
  Consult Configuration: If the issue persists, review the configuration settings in the Asset Accounting module to ensure that they are set up correctly for the asset area in question.
  Use Transaction Codes: Utilize transaction codes like AS03 (Display Asset) to check the asset details and AS02 (Change Asset) to attempt to make changes if applicable.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as AS01 (Create Asset), AS02 (Change Asset), AS03 (Display Asset), and others related to asset management.
