• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IBRO804 - Coinsurance shares only allowed for premiums and claims ?

  The SAP error message IBRO804, which states "Coinsurance shares only allowed for premiums and claims," typically occurs in the context of insurance and reinsurance processing within the SAP system, particularly when dealing with coinsurance arrangements.

  Check Coinsurance Configuration: Review the configuration settings for coinsurance in your SAP system. Make sure that the coinsurance settings are correctly defined for the relevant insurance products.
  
  
  Review Data Entry: Double-check the data you have entered for the transaction. Ensure that all necessary fields are filled out correctly and that the transaction is set up to allow for coinsurance.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines regarding coinsurance processing to ensure compliance with the required procedures.
  
  
  Contact Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who specializes in insurance modules.
