How To Fix FMCE002 - Annual budget exceeded by &2 for &1

FMCE002 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FMCE - Cover Eligibility Messages

• Message number: 002

• Message text: Annual budget exceeded by &2 for &1

What causes this issue?

The annual budget is exceeded by &V2& for the FM account assignment &V1&
. Depending on the type of document, this FM account assignment is
either a budget address or a posting address.
Budget control on outgoing amounts (<DS:DE.BUAVC_CEILTYPE>ceiling type
</> <ZK>Expenditures</>) raised this message for the budget address <ZH>
&V3&</> (= <ZK>first-level control object</>) without considering the
cover eligibility rule that exists for this budget address.
Although at this point the system checks availability on the level of
the budget address, an automatic cover eligibility rule was found. This
rule ultimately decides whether sufficient budget is available for
posting, if the present message has not been raised as an <SE><LS>Error
</></>.
The corresponding cover eligibility rule is determined by the following
combination of availability control ledger, fiscal year (and if
applicable, <DS:DE.FM_CEFFYEAR_BCS>year of cash effectivity</>) and
<ZK>second-level control object</> (<DS:DE.FMCE_CVRGRP>cover group</>
and if applicable, the <DS:DE.GM_GRANT_NBR>grant</>):
<ZH>&V4&</>
