System Response

Cost center revenue postings are statistical only. To preserve
reconciliation between FI and CO revenue elements, a CO account
assignment object must carry the revenues as "real". This object type
updates to the reconciliation ledger.
In principle, the SAP R/3 System automatically derives this object.
However, the reconciliation ledger logs under the object type
"Reconciliation object" all postings to costing-based profitability
analysis made in CO. In this way, the standard ledger identifies the
exact values flowing to operating profit.

How to fix this error?

To stop postings to reconciliation objects, enter additional "real"
revenue objects for each cost center in question.
