  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 9J380 - Warning: CO object not in organizational structure & & & ?

    The SAP error message 9J380 ("Warning: CO object not in organizational structure") typically occurs in the context of Controlling (CO) when you are trying to post a transaction or perform an operation that involves a CO object (like a cost center, internal order, or profit center) that is not properly defined in the organizational structure.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Configuration: The CO object you are trying to use is not assigned to the relevant organizational unit (like a controlling area, company code, etc.).
    2. Inactive or Deleted Objects: The CO object may have been deleted or is inactive in the system.
    3. Incorrect Master Data: The master data for the CO object may not be correctly maintained or may not exist.
    4. Period Closure: The period in which you are trying to post may be closed, and the CO object is not valid for that period.

    Solution:

      • Go to the relevant configuration settings in SAP (e.g., SPRO) and verify that the CO object is correctly assigned to the organizational structure.
