• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RESRCP007 - Correspondence can only be printed outside of settlement ?

  The SAP error message RESRCP007 ("Correspondence can only be printed outside of settlement") typically occurs in the context of the Real Estate Management (RE) module when trying to print correspondence related to a settlement process. This error indicates that the system does not allow the printing of correspondence while the settlement process is active.
  Cause:

  Review Configuration: If you believe that the correspondence should be allowed during settlement, review the configuration settings in the RE module. Consult with your SAP administrator or a functional consultant to see if any settings can be adjusted.
  
  
  Use Alternative Methods: If immediate printing is necessary, consider using alternative methods to generate the required documents, such as exporting data to a report or using a different transaction that allows for correspondence printing.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on the specific transaction you are using and the implications of the settlement process.
