• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FARR_INFLIGHT_CHECK038 - C24: POB &1 end date has passed but remaining SSP is not 0 but &2 ?

  The SAP error message FARR_INFLIGHT_CHECK038 C24 indicates that there is an issue with the end date of a Purchase Order (POB) in the context of Asset Accounting (FI-AA) or related modules. Specifically, the error states that the end date of the POB has passed, but there is still a remaining Special Service Provision (SSP) amount that is not zero.
  Cause:
  
  End Date Passed: The end date of the POB has already passed, which typically means that the asset or service associated with the POB should have been fully utilized or completed.
  Remaining SSP: There is still a remaining balance of the SSP that has not been fully utilized or accounted for, which is causing a conflict with the end date.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review the POB: Check the details of the Purchase Order and the associated asset or service. Ensure that the end date is correctly set and that it reflects the actual completion date of the service or asset usage.
  
  
  Adjust Remaining SSP: If the remaining SSP amount is not supposed to be there, you may need to adjust or clear it. This could involve:
  
  Posting the remaining SSP to the appropriate account.
  Adjusting the service entries to reflect the actual usage.
  If the SSP is indeed valid, consider extending the end date of the POB to accommodate the remaining balance.
  
  
  
  Check for Open Transactions: Ensure that there are no open transactions or postings that are preventing the closure of the POB. This may involve reviewing related documents or entries in the system.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling POBs and SSPs in your version of SAP.
  
  
  Contact Support: If the issue persists after taking the above steps, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert for further assistance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as F-90 (Asset Acquisition), F-92 (Asset Transfer), or F-01 (General Journal) that may be involved in managing assets and POBs.
  Configuration Settings: Review the configuration settings in the Asset Accounting module to ensure that they align with your business processes and requirements.
  User Exits and BAdIs: Check if there are any user exits or Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) that might be affecting the behavior of POBs and SSPs in your system.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the error and implement a suitable solution.
