• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FO351 - Total percentage (&) is more than 100 ?

  The SAP error message FO351 ("Total percentage (&) is more than 100") typically occurs in the context of asset accounting, particularly when dealing with investment measures or asset under construction (AuC). This error indicates that the total percentage allocation for a particular investment or cost distribution exceeds 100%, which is not permissible.
  Cause:
  
  
  Incorrect Percentage Allocation: The most common cause is that the sum of the percentage allocations for various cost elements or investment measures exceeds 100%. For example, if you have multiple cost elements assigned to an investment measure and their total percentage exceeds 100%, this error will be triggered.
  
  
  Data Entry Errors: Manual data entry errors can lead to incorrect percentage values being inputted.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: In some cases, the configuration of the investment measures or the related cost elements may not be set up correctly, leading to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Percentage Allocations: Check the percentage allocations for the investment measures or cost elements involved. Ensure that the total does not exceed 100%. Adjust the percentages as necessary.
  
  
  Correct Data Entry: If the error is due to manual data entry, correct the entries to ensure that they are accurate and do not exceed the allowed limit.
  
  
  Check Configuration: If you suspect a configuration issue, review the settings in the asset accounting module. Ensure that the investment measures and cost elements are configured correctly.
  
  
  Use Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like AS01 (Create Asset), AS02 (Change Asset), or AS03 (Display Asset) to review and modify asset-related data.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on managing investment measures and cost allocations.
  
  
  Seek Help from SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot identify the cause, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP team for further assistance.
