  • What causes this issue?

    You want to change the carryforward rules for FM account assignment
    &V4& in FM area &V1& for carryforward parameter &V2& and fiscal year
    &V3&. However, this is not possible because documents were already
    carried forward in the commitment carryforward using this parameter.
    If the carryforward rules are changed after the commitment carryforward
    is executed, the commitment carryforward can no longer be reset without
    causing inconsistencies in the data.

    System Response

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    How to fix this error?

    If you want to change the carryforward rules, you first have to
    completely
    reset the commitment carryforward for the items already carried forward
    with carryforward parameter &V1&/&V2& in fiscal year &V3& of FM account
    assignment &V4&. Completely resetting means that all postings that
    possibly lead to the reduction of items in the receiver year must be
    reversed before the commitment carryforward is reset.
    Alternatively, you can assign other carryforward parameters to the
    value types in question for which the carryforward rules already exist
    or can be defined after the commitment carryforward.
