• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FMFG152 - No PMS maintained on the open items; PMS will be defaulted into cash line ?

  The SAP error message FMFG152 indicates that there is no Payment Management System (PMS) maintained for the open items in the Financial Management (FM) module. This error typically arises when you are trying to process a payment or a transaction that requires PMS information, but the system cannot find the necessary PMS settings for the open items.
  Cause:
  
  Missing PMS Configuration: The PMS settings may not be configured for the relevant open items in the system.
  Open Items Without PMS: The open items you are trying to process may not have been assigned a PMS, which is necessary for the transaction to proceed.
  Incorrect Document Type: The document type of the open items may not be compatible with PMS processing.
  Data Entry Errors: There may be errors in the data entry that led to the omission of PMS information.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Maintain PMS Settings:
  
  Go to the relevant configuration settings in SAP and ensure that PMS is properly maintained for the open items. This can typically be done in the customizing settings under Financial Management.
  Check the configuration for the specific document types and ensure that they are linked to the appropriate PMS.
  
  
  
  Assign PMS to Open Items:
  
  If the open items are missing PMS, you may need to manually assign the PMS to these items. This can often be done through transaction codes like FBL1N (Vendor Line Item Display) or FBL3N (G/L Account Line Item Display) to review and update the items.
  
  
  
  Review Document Types:
  
  Ensure that the document types used for the open items are set up to allow PMS processing. You may need to consult with your SAP administrator or functional consultant to verify this.
  
  
  
  Check for Data Entry Issues:
  
  Review the entries made for the open items to ensure that all necessary fields, including PMS-related fields, are filled out correctly.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on PMS configuration and troubleshooting.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SPRO (to access the SAP Customizing Implementation Guide), FBL1N, FBL3N, and others that may help in reviewing and maintaining PMS settings.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to the FM module and PMS that may provide additional insights or patches for known issues.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to PMS settings and open items.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or a functional consultant who specializes in the Financial Management module.
