• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FC152 - Overlap: Account numbers in interval & to & ?

  The SAP error message FC152, which states "Overlap: Account numbers in interval & to &," typically occurs in the context of financial accounting when there is an issue with the configuration of account intervals in the system. This error indicates that there is an overlap in the defined ranges of account numbers, which can lead to ambiguity in account assignments.
  Cause:
  The error is usually caused by one of the following reasons:
  
  Overlapping Account Ranges: Two or more account number intervals have been defined that overlap with each other. For example, if you have defined one interval as 1000 to 2000 and another as 1500 to 2500, this will trigger the error because the ranges overlap.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration of the account intervals in the financial settings may not have been set up correctly, leading to overlaps.
  Changes in Account Structure: If there have been recent changes to the account structure or intervals, it may have inadvertently created overlaps.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the FC152 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review Account Intervals:
  
  Go to the configuration settings where account intervals are defined (usually in the Financial Accounting module).
  Check the defined account number ranges for overlaps. Ensure that each range is unique and does not overlap with any other range.
  
  
  
  Adjust Account Ranges:
  
  Modify the account number intervals to eliminate any overlaps. Ensure that each interval is distinct and does not share any account numbers with another interval.
  
  
  
  Test Changes:
  
  After making adjustments, test the changes by attempting the transaction that previously triggered the error to ensure that the issue has been resolved.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about how to configure account intervals correctly, refer to SAP documentation or consult with a financial consultant who is familiar with SAP Financial Accounting.
  
  
  
  Check for Customizations:
  
  If your SAP system has customizations or enhancements, ensure that these do not interfere with the standard account interval settings.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes such as OBA7 (for defining account intervals) or OBY6 (for defining account groups) to access the relevant configuration settings.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or additional guidance related to this error message.
  User Roles: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to make changes to account configurations in SAP.
