  The SAP error message CRMS4_PS_NET120 indicates that there are too many Non-Cash Discounts (NCDs) active for the same payment period in the system. This typically occurs in the context of financial transactions where multiple discounts are applied, and the system has a limit on how many can be active simultaneously for a given period.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple NCDs: The primary cause of this error is that there are multiple non-cash discounts defined for the same payment period, exceeding the system's configured limit.
  Configuration Settings: The system may have specific configuration settings that restrict the number of active NCDs for a given period.
  Data Entry Errors: There may be data entry errors where discounts were incorrectly set up or duplicated.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Active NCDs: Check the active non-cash discounts for the specified payment period. Identify and review the discounts that are currently active.
  Deactivate Unnecessary NCDs: If there are NCDs that are not needed or are duplicates, consider deactivating them to reduce the count to within the allowed limit.
  Adjust Configuration: If the business process requires having multiple NCDs active at the same time, you may need to adjust the configuration settings in SAP to allow for more active NCDs. This may involve working with your SAP configuration team or consulting the SAP documentation.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on managing non-cash discounts and understanding the limits set in your system.
  Testing: After making changes, test the transactions again to ensure that the error is resolved.
