• Message class: RE_PR - Third Party/Owner Occupied Management

• Message number: 004

• Message text: The selected combination of apportionment units is not permitted

What causes this issue?

Several apportionment units are assigned to the settlement variant.
These include apportionment units that are intended for the owner
settlement as well as apportionment units that are intended only for
the tenant settlement.
These apportionment units can be combined with each other, which means
that a settlement variant may contain apportionment units for owners
and tenants. The total of the percentage values must equal 100%.
Example 1:
,,,,100 % Apportionment by co-ownership share, settlement type 1
(owner)
,,,, 50 % Apportionment by area, settlement type 2 (tenant)
,,,, 50 % Apportionment by consumption, settlement type 2 (tenant)

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

Example 2:
The apportionment for owner and tenant is to be made on the basis of
50% by area. The remaining 50% is to be apportioned according to
coownership share for the owner and by consumption for the tenant.
,,,, 50 % Apportionment by area, settlement type 1 (owner)
,,,, 50 % Apportionment by ownership share, settlement type 1 (owner)
,,,, 50 % Apportionment by area, settlement type 2 (tenant)
,,,, 50 % Apportionment by consumption, settlement type 2 (tenant)
