  The SAP error message FMMA008, which states "Posting to year of cash effectivity &1 is not allowed," typically occurs in the context of financial management and cash flow postings.

This may involve reviewing the settings in transaction codes like OAA3 (for asset accounting) or other relevant configuration transactions.
