  The SAP error message FMPP1027 indicates that there is a partial payment being attempted for a General Ledger (G/L) account, but the system has detected that the payment block is not set, even though the configuration for partial payments is active. This can lead to confusion in the payment processing, as the system expects certain conditions to be met for partial payments.
