How to fix this error?

Bear in mind that this can have the following effects:
Changes to the assignment of expenditure FM account assignments only
affect the revenue documents, when the additional document data which
increases the budget is derived using the next generation run of
program <DS:RE.RFFMUD11>RFFMUD11</>.
Changes to the definition of the additional revenue only come into
effect when you next increase the budget using program
<DS:RE.RFFMUD01>RFFMUD01</>. Budget increases already made (in the
surplus FM account assignment, for example) are not reversed, although
they may conflict with the new definition for the additional revenue.
Changes to the event permitting a budget increase, for example, from a
forecast of revenue to a customer invoice or payment or vice versa, may
lead to doubled budget increases.
