• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KD562 - Settlement type &: Total percentage in distribution rules <> 100% ?

  The SAP error message KD562, which states "Settlement type &: Total percentage in distribution rules <> 100%," typically occurs during the settlement process in SAP Controlling (CO) when the distribution rules for a cost object (like an internal order or a project) do not sum up to 100%. This can prevent the settlement from proceeding, as SAP requires that the distribution percentages must total exactly 100% for the settlement to be valid.
  Cause:
  
  
  Incorrect Distribution Rules: The distribution rules defined for the cost object may not add up to 100%. This can happen if:
  
  Some distribution percentages are missing.
  The percentages have been incorrectly entered.
  There are changes in the distribution rules that have not been updated correctly.
  
  
  
  Manual Adjustments: If manual adjustments were made to the distribution rules, it’s possible that the total was not recalculated or adjusted accordingly.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration of the settlement types or the related settings in the controlling area.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Distribution Rules:
  
  Go to the relevant cost object (e.g., internal order, project) and review the distribution rules.
  Ensure that all distribution percentages are entered correctly and that they sum to 100%.
  
  
  
  Adjust Percentages:
  
  If the total is less than or greater than 100%, adjust the individual percentages accordingly to ensure they total 100%.
  
  
  
  Review Settlement Type:
  
  Check the configuration of the settlement type being used. Ensure that it is set up correctly and that it allows for the distribution rules you are trying to apply.
