• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AY314 - Cost center &1 is not included in the depreciation simulation data ?

  The SAP error message AY314 indicates that a specific cost center is not included in the depreciation simulation data. This typically occurs during the execution of depreciation runs or simulations in the Asset Accounting module (FI-AA) of SAP.
  Cause:
  
  Cost Center Not Assigned: The cost center in question may not be assigned to the asset or may not be included in the relevant configuration settings.
