How To Fix RQ126 - Function not possible because copy/distribute function already activated

RQ126 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RQ - Messages for Cash Management and Forecast

• Message number: 126

• Message text: Function not possible because copy/distribute function already activated

What causes this issue?

You cannot combine the functions
Copy
Distribute
with the function
Save account transfer.
In the copy/distribute function, you specify rules to regularly push
forward the dates for the value date. You then can, for example,
specify whether or not items can be planned on a weekend.
These rules are used only for the value date and not for the offsetting
value date, which is not pushed forward. (Using the rules for the
offsetting value date would cause problems if the value date and
offsetting value date were not the same and you specified in this case
that items be planned not on Saturday and Sunday, but on Monday. If,
for example, the value date and offsetting value date are one day apart
when first determined, this difference would change if one of the dates
or both dates were pushed forward to Monday because of the weekend.)
Since the offsetting value date becomes the value date of the second
payment advice when you use the function "save account transfer", the
two functions cannot be combined.
