SAP Message AP068 - Overall budget and/or annual budget cannot be processed

Diagnosis
You are maintaining budget values for one or more measures (orders orWBS elements). The overall budget and/or the annual budget are notavailable for input.
There are two possible reasons for this.

  • A program type for investment programs is entered in the budget profile
  • for the measure. This program type is intended to make a link betweenthe measure and an investment program that has this program typemandatory. If there is no link to this kind of investment program, itis also not possible to create any overall budgets on the measure.
    • The measure is already assigned to an investment program position, but
    • this program position is set up to distribute budget values directly tothe measure. In this case, you cannnot create overall budgets directly.However, it is still possible to distribute budget values using thebudget distribution function in the menu for investment programs. Ifbudget distribution of annual values is also set to active in theprogram definition, then you are also limited to creating the annualbudgets for the measures using the budget distribution function in theinvestment program menu.
