SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FMRB - Revenue Increasing the Budget - FM specific part

• Message number: 539

• Message text: Invalid RIB object: conflict with revenue cover group

What causes this issue?

The <DS:SIMG.FMBCS_FMRBDERIRO>derivation strategy for RIB objects</>
attempted to assign a budget address to the RIB object &V1&&V2&, but
there exists a revenue cover group, which uses the budget address &V1&
&V2& as RIB source address.

System Response

The RIB object (or RIB object index) cannot be created for the following
combination of <DS:DE.BURB_RBBLDNR>budget category for RIB</>, fiscal
year (or if applicable, fiscal year and year of cash effectivity) and
original budget address:
<LB>&V3&&V4&</>
If there already exists a RIB rule based on the RIB object &V1&&V2&,
then this RIB rule is invalid.

How to fix this error?

Depending on the transaction you are using, you have at least one of the
following options:
Choose another budget address, if you want to assign a budget address in
the transaction "Process Single RIB Rule" (transaction
<DS:TRAN.FMRBRULE>FMRBRULE</>).
Change or delete the revenue cover group in the transaction "Process
Single Cover Group" (transaction <DS:TRAN.FMCERULE>FMCERULE
</>).
If there exists a RIB rule for the RIB object &V1&&V2& and if you want
to keep the definition of the revenue cover group, then you can delete
the RIB rule in the transaction "Process Single RIB Rule" (transaction
<DS:TRAN.FMRBRULE>FMRBRULE</>).
Change the <DS:SIMG.FMBCS_FMRBDERIRO>derivation strategy for RIB objects
</>: if necessary, you can exclude the budget address from being
assigned to a RIB object by using the target field
<DS:DE.BURB_FLG_NO_RIB_OBJECT>NO_RIB_OBJECT</>.
