How To Fix AP068 - Overall budget and/or annual budget cannot be processed

AP068 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: AP - Investment program messages

• Message number: 068

• Message text: Overall budget and/or annual budget cannot be processed

What causes this issue?

You are maintaining budget values for one or more measures (orders or
WBS elements). The overall budget and/or the annual budget are not
available for input.
There are two possible reasons for this.
A program type for investment programs is entered in the budget profile
for the measure. This program type is intended to make a link between
the measure and an investment program that has this program type
mandatory. If there is no link to this kind of investment program, it
is also not possible to create any overall budgets on the measure.
The measure is already assigned to an investment program position, but
this program position is set up to distribute budget values directly to
the measure. In this case, you cannnot create overall budgets directly.
However, it is still possible to distribute budget values using the
budget distribution function in the menu for investment programs. If
budget distribution of annual values is also set to active in the
program definition, then you are also limited to creating the annual
budgets for the measures using the budget distribution function in the
investment program menu.
