You have not defined a CO account assignment for an account that is relevant to cost accounting.

Account 700001 is defined as a cost element.

This means that you must always specify a CO account assignment.

Hi,

Just Check whether this 22 category ( External settlement cost element) is defined against which type of settlement reciever in allocation structure's settlement cost elements block, then kindly check which is the settlement receiver category mentioned in your settlment rule defined against the WBS of the project. As this type of cost element is explicitly used for external settlment in cases where you don't want a settlment By cost element ( as defined in the allocation structure), so it accumulates all posting made with respect to that Project / WBS / network using one or more cost element and then transfers it to the respective Reciever mentioned in the settlment rule of the Project/ WBS / network.

Now, just check if there is any posting already present on this cost element & what is the nature of this posting.

Dear Raj,

Please sit with your CO Consultant to resolve this issue.

Please check your allocation structure carefully and read the help.sap.com about configuring Settlement profile and Allocation Structure.
