• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FMCA_ISR_EN405 - Document not old enough; statute of limitation date &1 after key date &2 ?

  The SAP error message FMCA_ISR_EN405 indicates that a document is not old enough to be processed due to the statute of limitations. Specifically, the error message states that the statute of limitation date (represented as &1) is after the key date (represented as &2). This typically occurs in the context of financial transactions or document processing where certain legal or regulatory timeframes must be adhered to.
  Cause:
  
  Statute of Limitations: The error arises when the document you are trying to process is still within the statute of limitations period, meaning it cannot be processed or archived yet.
  Key Date: The key date is usually the date on which the processing is attempted. If the statute of limitations date is set to a future date relative to the key date, the system will prevent any actions on that document.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Document Dates: Check the dates associated with the document in question. Ensure that the document is indeed eligible for processing based on the statute of limitations.
  Adjust Key Date: If applicable, you may need to adjust the key date to a point in time that is before the statute of limitations date.
  Consult Legal Guidelines: If you are unsure about the statute of limitations for the specific document type, consult your legal or compliance team to understand the applicable regulations.
  System Configuration: If this is a recurring issue, it may be necessary to review the configuration settings in SAP related to the statute of limitations to ensure they align with your business requirements.
  
  Related Information:

  SAP Modules: This error is often encountered in modules related to Financial Accounting (FI) or Controlling (CO), particularly when dealing with document archiving or financial transactions.
  Transaction Codes: You may want to check transaction codes related to document processing, such as FB03 (Display Document) or FBL1N (Vendor Line Item Display), to gather more information about the document in question.
