• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CMAC_FEE_CALC558 - FM area &1 in grant &2 differs from FM area derived from company code &3 ?

  The SAP error message CMAC_FEE_CALC558 indicates a discrepancy between the Funds Management (FM) area associated with a grant and the FM area derived from the company code. This error typically arises during the processing of financial transactions related to grants, particularly when there is a mismatch in the configuration or assignment of FM areas.
  Cause:
  
  Mismatch in FM Area Configuration: The FM area assigned to the grant does not match the FM area that is derived from the company code. This can happen if the grant was created with a specific FM area, but the company code is configured to use a different FM area.
  Incorrect Grant Assignment: The grant may have been incorrectly assigned to a different FM area than what is expected based on the company code.
  Changes in Configuration: If there have been recent changes in the configuration of FM areas or company codes, this could lead to inconsistencies.

  Navigate to the grant master data and check the FM area settings.
