  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BK059 - The object is statistical. Enter a true object ?

    The SAP error message BK059 ("The object is statistical. Enter a true object") typically occurs in the context of financial transactions, particularly when dealing with cost accounting or internal orders. This error indicates that the object you are trying to use (such as a cost center, internal order, or project) is defined as a statistical object in the system, which means it is not intended for actual postings or financial transactions.

    Cause:

    1. Statistical Object: The object you are trying to post to is marked as statistical. Statistical objects are used for tracking purposes and do not affect the financial statements.
    2. Incorrect Object Type: You may have mistakenly selected a statistical object instead of a true (real) object that allows for actual postings.
    3. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the SAP system that define certain objects as statistical.

    Solution:

    1. Check Object Type: Verify the object you are trying to use. Ensure that it is a true object (e.g., a real cost center or internal order) and not a statistical one.
    2. Select a Different Object: If you need to post a transaction, select a different object that is not marked as statistical.
    3. Review Configuration: If you believe the object should allow actual postings, review the configuration settings in the SAP system. You may need to consult with your SAP administrator or a functional consultant to change the object type from statistical to real if appropriate.
    4. Transaction Type: Ensure that the transaction type you are using is compatible with the object type. Some transactions may only be valid for real objects.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on cost accounting and object types.
    • Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like KS01 (Create Cost Center), KO01 (Create Internal Order), or CJ01 (Create Project) to check the settings of the objects.
    • User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to post to the selected object.

    If the issue persists after checking these aspects, it may be beneficial to reach out to your SAP support team for further assistance.
