How To Fix KD048 - Enter percentage in the same way as for the other rules

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: KD - CO Settlement

• Message number: 048

• Message text: Enter percentage in the same way as for the other rules

What causes this issue?

You have created a settlement rule that has shares determined by
equivalence numbers. There are rules, however, which have shares
determined by percentage values and belong to the same settlement type.
(For example, the rules with the number &V1&)

System Response

The entry is rejected by the system, as otherwise no clear
determination of the settlement share would be possible.

How to fix this error?

For rules with the same settlement type, use either percentage rates
only, or equivalence numbers only. You should therefore enter a
percentage rate in the rule you are currently processing instead of an
equivalence number. You can also leave both fields empty for now, and
enter the settlement share later in the overview for all rules.
You can switch from settlement by percentage to settlement by
equivalence numbers (or the other way round). To do this, you must
enter the validity periods for the rules so that no rule with
percentage settlement is valid in the same period as a rule with
equivalence numbers.
