How To Fix AY192 - The maximum number of distribution rules was exceeded

AY192 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: AY - Deprec. simulation - maint. module (AIPS) /gen. master data

• Message number: 192

• Message text: The maximum number of distribution rules was exceeded

What causes this issue?

Settlement profile &v1& is assigned to the settlement rule of the
sender object. This settlement profile allows a maximum of &v2&
distribution rules in the settlement rule. A source structure with &v3&
source assignments was entered in the settlement rule.
The system now tries to create a distribution rule for each source
assignment and each asset to be created. If the system created even one
asset, it would have to add &v3& distribution rules. However, of the
&v2& distribution rules that are the maximum allowed, &v4& are already
being used by existing distribution rules. Therefore, the system cannot
create any additional assets.

System Response

It is not possible to create new assets with the chosen function, since
the system cannot create any new distribution rules in the settlement
rule of the sender object.

How to fix this error?

Change profile &v1& so that it allows more distribution rules.
