How To Fix FTVV_MESSAGES412 - Function no longer permitted due to withholding of overdue items

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FTVV_MESSAGES - Reporting Financial Assets Management

• Message number: 412

• Message text: Function no longer permitted due to withholding of overdue items

You are no longer permitted to branch to the Filed Documents. This is
because overdue items have already been flagged for withholding and so
the payment lock has also been set in the relevant document line.
However, the system will only write the setting of the payment lock to
the database when you save or post the disbursement.
By branching to Filed Documents you could enter or change documents
there and then save. This would also have the effect of writing the
payment lock to the database.
If you then cancelled the disbursement, in other words left the
disbursement without saving or posting, the payment lock would stay in
the documents and would have to be manually deleted.
