Cause

The reason is due to the balance of the individual material is less than the amount being transferred, hence the partial transfer of amount for Current Year cannot be executed.

Resolution

You can check for balance for the Fixed Asset XYZ in the Fixed Assets - Line Items report and this report includes all postings for an Individual Material with posting date. Enter the correct amount for partial transfer of Individual Material.
