This error indicates that the total percentage allocated to a vendor exceeds 100%, which is not permissible.

    2. Adjust Allocations: If the percentages are incorrect, modify them to ensure that they total 100% or less. This may involve redistributing the percentages among different line items or vendors.
    3. Check Configuration: If you suspect a configuration issue, consult with your SAP administrator or a functional consultant to review the settings related to vendor splits.
    4. Data Validation: Implement validation checks in your data entry processes to prevent users from entering percentages that exceed 100%.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages (message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.

An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
