• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FMFG302 - Movement Type can only be Goods Accepted or Goods Rejected, not both ?

  The SAP error message FMFG302 indicates that there is a conflict in the movement type being used in a goods movement transaction. Specifically, it suggests that the movement type you are trying to use is restricted to either "Goods Accepted" or "Goods Rejected," but not both at the same time.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Movement Type: The movement type you are trying to use is not appropriate for the action you are attempting to perform. For example, if you are trying to process a goods receipt and the system expects a goods rejection, you will encounter this error.
  Configuration Issues: The movement types may not be configured correctly in the system, leading to confusion about what actions are permissible.
  Transaction Context: The context of the transaction may not align with the expected movement type. For instance, if you are trying to process a return or a cancellation, the system may not allow both goods acceptance and rejection simultaneously.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Movement Type: Verify the movement type you are using in your transaction. Ensure that it corresponds to the action you intend to perform (either goods receipt or goods rejection).
  Review Transaction Details: Look at the details of the transaction you are trying to execute. Make sure that the context aligns with the movement type you are using.
  Consult Configuration: If you have access to the configuration settings, check the movement type settings in the SAP system to ensure they are set up correctly. This may involve consulting with your SAP administrator or functional consultant.
  Use Correct Transaction Codes: Ensure you are using the correct transaction codes for the actions you want to perform. For example, use the appropriate transaction for goods receipt (e.g., MIGO) or goods rejection.
  Test in a Sandbox Environment: If possible, replicate the issue in a test or sandbox environment to better understand the cause and to test potential solutions without affecting production data.
