• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FARR_CONTRACT_UI222 - SSP tolerance is specified both in amount and in percentage for POB &1 ?

  The SAP error message FARR_CONTRACT_UI222 indicates that there is a conflict in the configuration of tolerance settings for a specific Purchase Order (POB) in the SAP system. Specifically, it states that a tolerance is specified both in amount and in percentage, which is not allowed.
  Cause:
  This error typically arises when:
  
  Configuration Issue: The system is set up to allow tolerances for a particular contract or purchase order, but both an absolute amount and a percentage have been defined simultaneously. This creates ambiguity in how the system should apply the tolerance.
  Data Entry Error: During the creation or modification of a contract or purchase order, both fields for tolerance (amount and percentage) may have been filled in, leading to this conflict.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review Tolerance Settings:
  
  Navigate to the relevant contract or purchase order in the SAP system.
  Check the tolerance settings for the document. Ensure that only one of the tolerance fields (either amount or percentage) is filled in, not both.
  
  
  
  Adjust Configuration:
  
  If you are an SAP administrator or have access to configuration settings, review the configuration for tolerances in the relevant module (e.g., Materials Management, Contract Management).
  Ensure that the settings allow for either an amount or a percentage, but not both.
  
  
  
  Correct Data Entry:
  
  If the error is due to incorrect data entry, correct the entries in the contract or purchase order by removing one of the tolerance specifications (either the amount or the percentage).
  
  
  
  Test Changes:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, try to save or process the contract or purchase order again to see if the error persists.

  User Roles: Ensure that users have the appropriate roles and permissions to make changes to contracts and purchase orders, as this can affect their ability to resolve the issue.
