Error Message:

Settlement amount > available amount.

Message no. KD559

Analysis and diagnosis

The above error message “Settlement amount > available amount” appeared during settlement of AUC asset through transaction code AIBU.

You are trying to use a settlement amount rule to settle an amount larger than the amount currently available.

Note that it is not appropriate to assign several line items to the same distribution rule group if you wish to settle line items. The system uses the distribution rule group for each line item, meaning that the total settled amount would be the same as the total of the amounts from the distribution rules, multiplied by the number of lines.

Recommendation and procedure

In the settlement rule, you’re using AMOUNT as basis of distribution. So ensure that each of the line item to settle should have separate and individual settlement rule group assigned.

Furthermore, ensure also that the total amount (amount per item multiplied to no. of lines of fxa recipient) of the distribution rule group assigned is not greater than the amount of the line item to settle.

If you will follow the above settings and rules, you can successfully settle the AUC asset without encountering error message Settlement amount > available amount.
