How To Fix FTR0406 - INFO: 1 suitable transaction and several potential candidates found

FTR0406 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FTR0 - Treasury: Financial Transaction

• Message number: 406

• Message text: INFO: 1 suitable transaction and several potential candidates found

What causes this issue?

The system has found one transaction activity whose status and
transaction data could be matched. However, other suitable transactions
were also selected, which have either already been counterconfirmed
and/or for which outgoing confirmation has not yet been sent:
Further items exist whose outgoing confirmation is still open (number:
<ZH>&V1&</>). This means that once their outgoing confirmation has been
sent, they will also become suitable.
<ZH>&V2& </>Transactions with suitable transaction data were already
matched in the specified period.
There is a danger that the transactions that have not yet been
confirmed or those that have already been matched, may automatically be
assigned incorrectly. You must therefore postprocess the incoming
confirmations manually.

How to fix this error?

Should this problem occur frequently, you can change the assignment
logic for processing inbound IDocs by:
Implementing the exit methods available (BAdI definition
FTR_CORR_INC_100) and programming additional assignment criteria
yourself.
