• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FTBCVA035 - No transactions with negative NPV: DVA is discarded ?

  The SAP error message FTBCVA035, which states "No transactions with negative NPV: DVA is discarded," typically occurs in the context of the SAP Financial Supply Chain Management (FSCM) module, particularly when dealing with the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) analysis or the valuation of financial instruments.
  Cause:
  
  
  No Negative NPV Transactions: The error indicates that there are no transactions with a negative Net Present Value (NPV) available for the Discounted Value Adjustment (DVA) process. This means that the system is unable to find any transactions that would qualify for the DVA calculation because all transactions have a non-negative NPV.
  
  
  Data Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the configuration of the financial instruments or the parameters set for the DVA calculation. This could include incorrect settings in the valuation methods or parameters that do not allow for negative NPV calculations.
  
  
  Transaction Data: The transactions being processed may not have been set up correctly, or there may be a lack of relevant data that would lead to a negative NPV.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Transactions: Check the transactions that are being processed to ensure that they are set up correctly and that they have the potential to yield a negative NPV. This may involve reviewing the cash flows, discount rates, and other relevant parameters.
  
  
  Adjust Valuation Parameters: If the configuration settings for the DVA calculation are too restrictive, consider adjusting them to allow for a broader range of transactions to be included in the analysis.
  
  
  Data Integrity Check: Ensure that all necessary data is present and correctly configured in the system. This includes checking for any missing or incorrect entries in the financial instruments or transaction records.
