  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Allocation Date: Ensure that the allocation date you are using is within the permissible range. The permissible deviation is defined in the system settings, so you may need to adjust the date accordingly.

  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help files related to asset accounting and allocation processes for additional insights.
  
  
  Testing: After making changes, perform a test allocation to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
