• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FC031 - If table and field name are "*", no further entries are permitted ?

  The SAP error message FC031, which states "If table and field name are '', no further entries are permitted," typically occurs in the context of configuration or data entry in SAP, particularly when dealing with financial accounting or controlling settings. This error indicates that there is an attempt to create or modify an entry in a configuration table where the table and field names are set to "", which is a wildcard character indicating that the entry applies to all tables and fields.
