• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FKKORDER066 - Classification key &1 is already assigned to general request &2 ?

  The SAP error message FKKORDER066 indicates that a classification key (in this case, &1) is already assigned to a general request (in this case, &2). This error typically occurs in the context of SAP Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA) when trying to assign a classification key to a request that has already been assigned to another request.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Assignment: The classification key you are trying to assign is already linked to another general request. This can happen if the same classification key is being used for multiple requests, which is not allowed.

  Solution:
  
  Check Existing Assignments: Review the existing assignments of the classification key to see which general request it is currently linked to. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction in SAP and checking the details of the classification key.
  Use a Different Classification Key: If the classification key is already in use, consider using a different classification key that is not currently assigned to any other request.
  Remove Existing Assignment: If appropriate, you may remove the classification key from the existing general request if it is no longer needed there. This can be done through the relevant transaction in SAP.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's guidelines on how classification keys are managed within your specific implementation of SAP FI-CA.
