  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AW851 - Asset &1: no subnumber with FM assignment &2 ?

    The SAP error message AW851 indicates that there is an issue with an asset in the Asset Accounting (FI-AA) module, specifically related to the assignment of a subnumber to an asset that has a Funds Management (FM) assignment. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information for this error:

    Cause:

    1. Missing Subnumber: The asset referenced in the error message does not have a subnumber assigned to it. In SAP, assets can have subnumbers for more detailed tracking, and if a subnumber is required but not present, this error will occur.
    2. Funds Management Assignment: The asset is linked to a Funds Management (FM) assignment, which may require specific configurations or subnumbers to be valid.
    3. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the Asset Accounting or Funds Management settings that prevent the proper assignment of subnumbers.

    Solution:

    1. Check Asset Master Data:

      • Go to the Asset Master Data (transaction code AS03) and check if the asset has a subnumber assigned. If it does not, you may need to create a subnumber for the asset.
      • If the asset should have a subnumber, you can create it using transaction code AS01 (Create Asset) or AS02 (Change Asset).
    2. Review FM Assignment:

      • Ensure that the Funds Management assignment is correctly set up for the asset. Check the FM area and ensure that it is properly linked to the asset.
      • If necessary, consult with your FM team to ensure that the asset is correctly configured within the FM module.
    3. Configuration Check:

      • Review the configuration settings in both Asset Accounting and Funds Management to ensure that they are set up to allow for subnumbers.
      • Check the settings in transaction code OAOA (Define Asset Classes) to see if the asset class allows for subnumbers.
    4. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed guidance on asset management and Funds Management integration.
    5. Contact Support:

      • If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert for further assistance.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • AS03: Display Asset
      • AS01: Create Asset
      • AS02: Change Asset
      • OAOA: Define Asset Classes
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
    • Documentation: Review the SAP Help Portal for detailed information on Asset Accounting and Funds Management integration.
