• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 6D349 - Cost centers for own usage are still assigned ?

  The SAP error message 6D349 indicates that there are cost centers assigned for own usage that need to be addressed before proceeding with a particular transaction or process. This error typically arises in the context of controlling (CO) or financial accounting (FI) when trying to execute a transaction that requires the unassignment of certain cost centers.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  There are cost centers that are still assigned to a particular object (like a project, internal order, or another controlling object) that should not have any active assignments.
  The system is enforcing a rule that requires these cost centers to be unassigned before the transaction can be completed.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify the Cost Centers: Determine which cost centers are causing the issue. You can do this by checking the transaction or report that triggered the error message.
  
  
  Unassign Cost Centers:
  
  Navigate to the relevant transaction where the cost centers are assigned (e.g., internal orders, projects).
  Remove or unassign the cost centers that are no longer needed or that are causing the error.
  Ensure that the cost centers are not linked to any ongoing processes that would prevent their unassignment.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration: If you are unsure why these cost centers are assigned, review the configuration settings in the controlling module to ensure that they are set up correctly.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on the transaction you are working with, as there may be additional steps or considerations.
  
  
  Test the Transaction Again: After unassigning the cost centers, attempt to execute the original transaction again to see if the error persists.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Depending on the context, you may need to use transaction codes like KSB1 (Cost Centers: Actual Line Items), KOB1 (Orders: Actual Line Items), or CJ20N (Project Builder) to review and manage cost center assignments.
  Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to cost center assignments.
  Consult with Finance Team: If you are unsure about the implications of unassigning cost centers, consult with your finance or controlling team to ensure compliance with internal policies.
