• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FMFG809 - This is a calculated amount; drilldown not possible ?

  The SAP error message FMFG809, which states "This is a calculated amount; drilldown not possible," typically occurs in the context of SAP's Funds Management (FM) module. This error indicates that the user is attempting to drill down into a calculated amount in a report or transaction where detailed line items are not available for that specific amount.
  Cause:
  
  Calculated Amount: The amount you are trying to drill down into is derived from a calculation rather than being a direct entry or a line item. This often happens in reports that summarize data, such as totals or averages.
  Data Aggregation: The report or transaction may be aggregating data from multiple sources, and the underlying details are not stored in a way that allows for further breakdown.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured in a way that does not allow drill-down functionality for certain calculated fields.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Report Type: Ensure that you are using a report that supports drill-down functionality. Some reports are designed for summary views and do not allow for detailed analysis.
  Use Alternative Reports: If you need detailed information, look for alternative reports or transactions that provide the necessary level of detail. For example, you might need to access line item reports instead of summary reports.
  Review Configuration: If you believe that drill-down functionality should be available, consult with your SAP administrator or functional consultant to review the configuration settings related to the report or transaction.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on the report you are using and its capabilities.
