  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WZRE_EXT_POST015 Sum net amount distributed items &1 not equal to main item &2: &3
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs during the posting of documents (usually in the context of external service entry sheets, invoice verification, or related processes) when the sum of the net amounts of the distributed (sub-)items does not match the net amount of the main item.
  
  &1 = Sum of net amounts of distributed items
  &2 = Net amount of the main item
  &3 = Difference or discrepancy amount
  
  In other words, the system expects that the total net amount of all distributed items (sub-items) should exactly equal the net amount of the main item. If there is a mismatch, the system throws this error to prevent inconsistent postings.
  
  Common Causes:
  
  Rounding differences: Minor rounding differences between the distributed items and the main item.
  Incorrect distribution: The amounts assigned to the distributed items do not add up correctly.
  Manual changes: Manual adjustments or incorrect data entry in the distributed items.
  Currency or unit inconsistencies: Differences in currency or unit of measure causing calculation errors.
  Configuration issues: Incorrect settings in distribution or splitting rules.
  
  
  Solution / How to Fix:
  
  
  Check the amounts:
  
  Verify the net amount of the main item.
  Sum the net amounts of all distributed items.
  Identify the difference (&3).
  
  
  
  Adjust distributed items:
  
  Correct the amounts in the distributed items so that their sum matches the main item.
  Pay attention to rounding rules and decimal places.
  
  
  
  Review rounding settings:
  
  Check the currency decimal places and rounding rules in the system.
  Adjust if necessary to avoid rounding errors.
  
  
  
  Check distribution logic:
  
  Review the distribution or splitting rules used to allocate amounts.
  Ensure they are correctly configured and applied.
  
  
  
  Repost the document:
  
  After corrections, try reposting the document.
  
  
  
  Use SAP Notes / Support:
  
  If the problem persists, check for relevant SAP Notes or contact SAP support.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  This error is common in Service Entry Sheet (SES) processing, Invoice Verification (MIRO), or other logistics/invoice posting scenarios where item splitting or distribution is involved.
  The error ensures data consistency and prevents incorrect financial postings.
  Sometimes, customizing in Transaction OMR6 (for rounding) or OMR7 (for invoice verification) may influence this behavior.
  Check the document splitting or account assignment if involved.
