• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FMKU082 - Release and budget amounts are inconsistent ?

  The SAP error message FMKU082 ("Release and budget amounts are inconsistent") typically occurs in the context of Funds Management (FM) when there is a discrepancy between the amounts that have been released and the budget amounts that have been allocated. This inconsistency can prevent transactions from being processed correctly.
  Causes:
  
  Budget Availability Control: The budget that has been allocated may not match the amount that is being released. This can happen if the budget has been changed after the release or if there are multiple releases affecting the same budget line.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for budget control may not be set up correctly, leading to mismatches in expected amounts.
  Manual Adjustments: Manual adjustments to budget or release amounts that do not align with the system's expectations can trigger this error.
  Posting Errors: Errors during posting transactions that affect budget amounts can lead to inconsistencies.
  Multiple Budget Versions: If there are multiple versions of the budget, the system may be referencing the wrong version.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Budget and Release Amounts: Review the budget and release amounts in the relevant FM documents to ensure they match. You can use transaction codes like FMAVCR01 (Budget Availability Control) to check the budget status.
  Adjust Budget or Release: If there is a discrepancy, adjust either the budget or the release amount to ensure they are consistent. This may involve changing the budget in the FM module or adjusting the release in the relevant transaction.
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings for Funds Management to ensure that they are set up correctly. This may involve consulting with your SAP configuration team.
  Use Transaction Codes: Utilize transaction codes such as FMBB (Budgeting) or FMX1 (Create Release) to manage and review budget and release transactions.
  Consult Logs: Check the application logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context on the inconsistency.
