• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FTI_LDB_MESSAGE150 - Parameters "only references" and "split syndicate" cannot be combined ?

  The SAP error message FTI_LDB_MESSAGE150 indicates that there is a conflict in the parameters being used in a financial transaction or report, specifically regarding the "only references" and "split syndicate" options. This error typically arises in the context of financial transaction management, particularly when dealing with syndicate loans or similar financial instruments.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when both parameters "only references" and "split syndicate" are selected simultaneously in a transaction or report. These parameters are mutually exclusive, meaning they cannot be used together. 
  
  Only References: This parameter is used to filter the data to show only reference transactions.
  Split Syndicate: This parameter is used to display transactions that are part of a syndicate loan split.
  
  When both are selected, the system cannot process the request because it does not make logical sense to filter for only references while also trying to split syndicate transactions.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to adjust the parameters you are using in your transaction or report:
  
  Review the Parameters: Check the settings or parameters you have selected for the transaction or report.
  Deselect One of the Parameters: Choose either "only references" or "split syndicate," but not both. 
  
  If you need to see only reference transactions, uncheck "split syndicate."
  If you need to analyze syndicate transactions, uncheck "only references."
  
  
  Re-run the Transaction/Report: After adjusting the parameters, try running the transaction or report again.
