• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message B!035 - Only the allocation was changed ?

  The SAP error message B!035 "Only the allocation was changed" typically occurs in the context of financial accounting or controlling when there is an attempt to post a document that has already been processed, but only the allocation (such as cost center or internal order) has been modified without any changes to the actual amounts or other key fields.
  Cause:

  Recreate the Document: If the changes are necessary, you might need to reverse the original document and create a new one with the correct allocations.
