I have a service with a 200 amp main breaker with a 60amp feeder to a 100 amp rated subpanel, My question is, is it acceptable to install a the 40 amp PV breaker in the subpanel?
Yes, if the inverter breaker is at the opposite end of the sub panel main lugs.I have a service with a 200 amp main breaker with a 60amp feeder to a 100 amp rated subpanel, My question is, is it acceptable to install a the 40 amp PV breaker in the subpanel?

I would agree. I guess I was concentrating on the idea that the feeder conductors don't have to be rated for 60 + 40 as some thought in previous editions.Actually that's not necessary, because at 60A+40A he is not exceeding the rating of the sub. So the inverter breaker can go anywhere in the sub.
HOWEVER, the breaker feeding the sub must be at the opposite end from the main breaker in the main panel.
In other words, what you said, except applied to the main and not the sub.
