• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CE406 - The rounding and add. values key & is still used in routings ?

  The SAP error message CE406 indicates that there is an issue with rounding and additive values in the context of routings. This error typically arises when you attempt to delete or modify a rounding or additive value that is still being referenced in existing routings.
  Cause:
  
  Existing References: The rounding and additive values you are trying to delete or modify are still being used in one or more routings. SAP does not allow the deletion of these values if they are actively referenced.
  Data Integrity: SAP enforces data integrity rules to ensure that changes do not lead to inconsistencies in the system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the CE406 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify References:
  
  Use transaction codes like C223 (for routing) or C201 (for work center) to check where the rounding and additive values are being used.
  You can also use the SE16 transaction to query the relevant tables (e.g., C223, C201, C202) to find the specific routings that reference the rounding and additive values.
  
  
  
  Modify or Delete References:
  
  Once you have identified the routings that are using the rounding and additive values, you can either:
  
  Modify the routings to remove the references to the rounding and additive values.
  Delete the routings if they are no longer needed (ensure that this is in line with your business processes).
  
  
  
  
  
  Re-attempt the Change:
  
  After ensuring that there are no references to the rounding and additive values in the routings, you can attempt to delete or modify the values again.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about the implications of deleting or modifying these values, consult your SAP documentation or reach out to your SAP support team for guidance.
