• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AM354 - Quarterly adjustment already active ?

  The SAP error message AM354 ("Quarterly adjustment already active") typically occurs in the context of Asset Accounting (FI-AA) when you attempt to perform a quarterly adjustment for an asset that is already in the process of being adjusted for the current quarter. This error is designed to prevent duplicate adjustments that could lead to inconsistencies in asset values.

  Solution:
  
  Check Adjustment Status: Verify if a quarterly adjustment has already been processed for the asset. You can do this by checking the asset's history or adjustment logs in the Asset Accounting module.
  Wait for Completion: If an adjustment is currently being processed, you will need to wait until it is completed before attempting to make another adjustment.
  Review Configuration: Ensure that the configuration settings for asset adjustments are correct and that there are no restrictions preventing the adjustment.
  Consult with Colleagues: If you are unsure whether an adjustment is in progress, consult with your colleagues or the finance team to confirm the status of the asset.
  Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like AS03 (Display Asset) to check the asset details and history.
