KE350_We ticked "do not cost" in MM03 with KE4J setting, error in billing.

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Most of materials need to be done costing run before creating billing in our company; therefore, we set "KE4J costing key for Type of Material (FERT) " to check if mat. already done cost estimate or not.

But some of FERT mat. from old sys. and will not be produce anymore. Therefore, we tick "do not cost" in MM03, and transfer STD at accounting view 1 from old sys. by LSMW.

When we've done billing, there's no accounting doc. produced.

In VF02, release to accounting, we got these error msg.

How do we solve this Q? (If we ticked "do not cost" and no need to check if cost estimates have been done or not.)

Thanks in advance.

*********Valuation with material cost estimate: error with product "1-EM-001COPY"*******************************************

Message no. KE350

Diagnosis

In Profitability Analysis (CO-PA), the system tried to valuate a line item using the current standard cost estimate.

In order to determine the current plan period, the system needs to read the valuation segment of the material master.

The system has found that the current plan period is not filled forproduct "1-EM-001COPY" in plant "1010".

Display material (View: Costing)

The system looked for the material cost estimate using costing key "001", as defined in the Customizing settings for CO-PA.

System Response

The document cannot be processed.

Procedure

Contact your system administrator.

Hi

Either release a Std price from CK11N

OR

Remove the check box in KE40 "issue error msg if no cost estimate found" for the time being

Please check KEPC settings for Material type, costing key and validity date. Hope this helps.
