  Configuration Issues: The minimum permissible value may not be correctly configured in the system, leading to discrepancies between expected and actual fund values.
  
  
  Data Entry Errors: Incorrect data entry during budget planning or transaction posting can lead to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Fund Values: Check the current fund value and compare it with the permissible minimum value. Ensure that the fund has sufficient balance to cover the intended transaction.

  Check the settings for minimum fund values in the relevant configuration areas.
