• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /MVA/AMC_BM_MSG814 - Season start: B/M &1 cannot be assigned. B/M is active in contract &2 ?

  The SAP error message /MVA/AMC_BM_MSG814 indicates that there is an issue with the assignment of a Business Model (B/M) during the season start process. Specifically, the error states that the Business Model (B/M) cannot be assigned because it is already active in another contract.
  Cause:
  
  Active Business Model: The Business Model you are trying to assign is already linked to another contract, which prevents it from being assigned to the new contract.
  Contract Overlap: There may be overlapping contracts that are trying to use the same Business Model simultaneously.
  Configuration Issues: There might be configuration settings in the system that restrict the assignment of Business Models to contracts.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Active Contracts: Review the contracts in the system to identify where the Business Model is currently active. You can do this by navigating to the contract management area in SAP and checking the details of the contracts.
  Reassign or Deactivate: If the Business Model needs to be assigned to a new contract, consider deactivating it from the existing contract or reassigning it if possible. Ensure that the Business Model is not required in the current contract before making changes.
  Consult with Stakeholders: If the Business Model is critical for the existing contract, consult with relevant stakeholders to determine the best course of action. This may involve discussions with contract managers or business analysts.
  System Configuration: If the issue persists, check the system configuration settings related to Business Model assignments. Ensure that there are no restrictions that prevent the assignment of the Business Model to multiple contracts if that is intended.
