• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /ACCGO/MCK_MAINT212 - Enter bucket periods that do not overlap ?

  The SAP error message /ACCGO/MCK_MAINT212 Enter bucket periods that do not overlap typically occurs in the context of managing bucket periods in the SAP system, particularly when dealing with financial or accounting data. This error indicates that the periods you are trying to define for a certain process (like budgeting, forecasting, or reporting) overlap with each other, which is not allowed.
  
  Cause:
  
  
  Overlapping Periods: The most common cause of this error is that the start and end dates of the bucket periods you are trying to enter overlap with existing periods. For example, if you have defined a bucket period from January 1 to January 31, and you try to create another bucket period from January 15 to February 15, this will trigger the error because the two periods overlap.
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a configuration issue in the system where the defined periods are not set up correctly, leading to overlaps.
